What little I've heard of the story mode starts off with you as a Pommeranian who gets humiliated by a rabbit, trains up and practices, adventures around for phat lewt and eventually confronts some Big Bad (a bear or fox or maybe that tosa with the shogun gear).

Next chapter you're a deer and it involves running from velociraptors. That's about all I've heard.
I think I will buy this game and invite myself over to friends' houses just to play it on their PS3s.

. . .

Lucky for me, despite being a Nintendo Only, then More nintedo + a lonely ps2, then by the graces of a well to do programmer friend of mine PCTendo2, I finally got a Ps3 so I could play with friends I actually knew outside the internet.

And for Dynasty Warriors Gundam 3. I'm serious.

Anyway, I'm still more concerned about how opened ended survival is? I know some of the trophies have to do with reproducing several generations and living for a certain number of years (I think one is for a century) but besides Surviving and breeding... objectives? Or survive how we want? Will we somehow die inexplicably if we decide NOT to leave this cozy appartment where I don't die to alligators prowling the subway?

EDIT: Deer can use dumpsters much like Snake can use cardboard boxes...

After watching lots of videos for this...

Lets see. 2 player co-op. An inventory. If one player dies, you can revive him with some sort of pill.

Raptors are playable.

Items can be equipped. They can have fairly good stat boosts and animals can have multiple accessories on at once. Even raptor.

Stat boost case:The one I noticed is the pomeranian had a base 32 damage. With just a spike hat hit jumped 20 points to 52. It had three more equip slots.

You have to reach a certain rank to be able to attract certain mates.

Once you mate (on a generic "nest" of straw) you control the next generation which comes with a stat boost and starts out tiny. The adults... uh... stand there? You can instantly grow to adult hood by sleeping at the nest.

I'm not sure if babies born is random or fixed for the same species. Player takes control of one leader animal and the rest follow your movement actions perfectly until combat starts from what I can tell. Only the one player animal is equipped? Maybe boss animals like boxing kangaroo.

Flag markers are... some sort of territory marker? Animals have different animations for marking them-red is not owned by player, blue is.

Rank goes up with kills. It "may" also go up with territory. You have a map which shows potential mates as hearts. 

Stats go up at several times. I noticed both after a kill, with accessories, and after mating. May also go up with inventory items.

You have to finish the tutorial to play the game. Required.

That's all I've gathered so far. ... Erm, actually, that's all I remember. It's been weeks since I saw all those videos.

Right now this is the only thing I would want a PS3 for, except maybe Sly Cooper.

It was already released in Japan. The above released date is for US. [and EU/AU is the 26th, apparently.]

Sssssswwwwwweeeeeeetttttttt. I don't have a PS3, but this is currently the only reason I would see getting one. If I can find one cheap......

Apparently $15 download with $DLC animals. Japan release was around $50-60 US. It sounds like the company is just testing the waters worldwide.

Well well well. I'd forgotten this was a thing, and since I have a PS3 now for the Ratchet & Clank collection... :D

I knew there was a reason I kept my PS3, despite virtually never playing it after the first two AC games.

Invite me to your house. Right now. I will wrestle a pomeranian for the opportunity.

I'd need to have $15 to spend on another game first though. I hadn't thought of that until after I'd posted that, sorry :(
