Kind of... It's like infinite automatic save states. At least that's a good way to explain it, but the streaming thing they mention is more accurate. Nope like those flashback rewinds in racing games.

I was underwhelmed at first and wanted to be snippy cus fuck patenting game mechanics, but it really is a complex and interesting feature they want to develop It should just not be patented.
