Didnt really kno wether or now this was physics BASED but you guys can decide ;)

Raph, a brave explorer, and his companions have crash-landed in a mysterious corner of a strange planet. Now Raph must hunt for the spare parts needed to fix their skyship - and save his girlfriend too!
Fortunately, our hero has access to the amazing GEMMA - the 'Gyroscopic Exploration Multidimensional Multiterrain Apparatus'. It's a small explorer vehicle that works like a spinning top - which is perfect for the crazy part of the world our characters are trapped in.
Controlling GEMMA needs some practice. It's spin needs to be controlled carefully, as the degree of spin - and therefore its overall speed - directly affects its movement and behaviour. GEMMA can also be upgraded with special abilities to help you on your journey, too.
Sounds like a solid platform/puzzler, don't you think?

Theres alot of physics at about 00:47, But theres still physics everywhere else...

Not physics BASED, but features physics. Pretty cool game.

I couldnt quite tell, since the characters movement is based on Momentum and the way it spins... And at one point a whole bridge starts blowing up using physics...

i'd say this is a great find, even if it is not based this has enough physics in it.

Maybe you are right.

Wait, what game and video are we talking about?

This is totally physic based, did you even watch it? Bouncing to kill ennemis, you have to use physic for some puzzles like the ball thing.

There is a simple rule to see a game is physic based : "would it still be a game if we removed the physic?"

No, this would be totally useless.

Interesting. Story sounded like Pikman's though: crash landed fine you're ships parts through exploration. I don't have a PS3 though so I won't be able to get it. :/
