So here's something I just found. An upcoming game with Kaiju battles... from the perspective of some random dude on the ground.

Okay, that is just superb and I look forward to reading about this game in review.

Okay, first of all, how did Bandai Namco get the rights to Ultraman, NGE, Gamera, AND Godzilla for a single game?
Secondly, HOLY SHIT, ULTRAMAN, GAMERA, GODZILLA, AND EVA? AND WHO WERE THOSE ROBOT DUDES?
So, basically Cloverfield, The Game?

Well, that's pretty darn original at the very least. Now all there's left is for it to deliver.

If you're talking about the mecha at 1:44 into the video, those were AV-98 Ingram police mecha from Patlabor.
I'm wondering if the various franchises will have their own separate storylines, or if we're looking at a mega crossover plot-blender like the SRW games. Seeing Godzilla and Gamera together alone could be worth the price of admission.
A pity that it seems like the muggle's-eye-view means we probably won't see anything of the Pilots in the EVA parts. If it does go crossover, Shinji winding up as the one to form a psychic bond with Gamera would be an interesting twist, especially if he sorties against the same Kaiju Gamera is fighting. Shinji Ikari with Gamera as a mentor figure...
Rei linked to Gamera would also be interesting... <Your father figure wants you to do what now? Why?>

Misato: "But... WHY is all the Yebisu gone?"
Ritsuko: "The plan required you to get a Lovecraftian horror from beyond time and space so utterly drunk that we could kill it. The first part worked. But then you talked it into building you an Einstein-Rosenberg Bridge to Vegas, kidnap Kaji, and marry the both of you."
Mistao: "...you seem awfully calm about this."
Ritsuko: "I apparently am now married to Maya. Which I'm strangely okay with. And Gendo is both married to Unit-01, and in jail along with all of SELEE. Oh, and Rei-1 popped out of Unit-00's core and is calling me and Maya both 'mama.' My capacity for freaking out has been so exceeded, nothing can bother me now."
Misato: "Rits... don't look know, but... is that your mother?"
Ritsuko: "Aaaaaand, in other news, I really need to stop tempting fate like that."

OK, a survival horror game with famous giant robots and giant monsters. I wonder is there will be DLC for Gundam or Pacific Rim.

Pacific Rim I could see; Gundam not so much -- the theme of the game seems to be "kaiju/mecha battles as disaster movie," and Gundam seldom seems to fit. Mazinger, on the other hand...

They're already using Patlabor, which fits not much better than Gundam does (or maybe worse). You're right about Mazinger (or 'Tranzor Z,' as it was known in the US, in my childhood), though.

Patlabor seems like a pretty good fit to me -- near-future setting (would fit present day, really), operates in urban areas, civil service/civil defense focus... Special Vehicles Division 2 has even fought Kaiju before, most notably that genetically engineered thing from the third Patlabor movie. In general, protecting the public from big things on rampages is what their unit is for, even if it's usually just a case of crooks hijacking a glorified bipedal forklift.
Now I'm picturing Noa Izumi getting recruited as a piloting coach for NERV. Or her underage nemesis Bud Harchand (the Griffin's pilot) getting picked up as an EVA pilot, assuming they could pry him away from Schaft Enterprises...
Better yet, a UN committee relieves Gendo of command, and Captain Gotoh gets put in charge of NERV Japan.

Oh, don't worry about that much. It was just meant as a warning not to assume A&T is going to end up with a drunken OT4 forming in Las Vegas.
It should.

The very first second of the that trailer made me think of the opening of Sonic Adventure.
Also, that game is probably the most innovative giant robot/ kaiju game I've ever seen. Does anyone know what its called?

It's apparently "City Shrouded in Shadow."

There just happens to be an awesome Eva crossover with all these things over on Spacebattles, called Leviathan.

I've been reading that. Is the SV thread ahead of what posted on, say, FF.net?

As a matter of fact, high stakes gambling is supposed to come up later. Where do you think Kaji's been?
