Aquaphobia is a morbid fear of water or swimming; not exactly the type of condition you'd want while negotiating a sinking, city-size cruise liner. Meet Kate Wilson, a security guard aboard the Queen of the World, and the aquaphobic protagonist of Hydrophobia.

Hydrophobia features a groundbreaking fluid system that dynamically simulates real flowing water for the first time ever in a video game. That system is the highlight of the game's first teaser trailer, which we've uncovered from the depths of the Atlantic, erm, E3. Click here to be brought directly to it. So, if you've already seen it, we apologize, but it went virtually unnoticed when it premiered, and we figured we should bring it to your attention. Enjoy!

As exciting as it is to see these amazing water physics, lets all just remember that this does not mean the game will be amazing, for example; Star Wars the force unleashed uses Hovok, Euphoria, and DMM, but it's getting poor reviews, GTA4 was the first game to use Euphoria but we all know how quickly that game went stale.
I don't know about you guys but I think this kind of engine would be better suited for Bioshock, and Racing games like Motorstorm 2.

Story reminds me alot of the film "Poseidon". That water looks amazing, i guess we gotta wait and see if the game lives up to it

I'm a little confused. If she has Aquaphobia, then why the heck is she a security guard on a Cruise Liner?! Makes sense?

I would imagine that this game won't come out 2009. I've never heard of this title up until now. Haven't seen it in any magazine either. Thanks PSU. That water looks so amazingly realistic it's even giving me aquaphobia...
