    Wanted to check out the demo, it is still up on xbox live. Downloaded it and low and behold.... you can't even play it. Useless.

    No other demo to replace it either. Wasn't overly keen on the first one, got boring until near the end of the game. Might have been nice to have a quick go on a demo to see how good it is.... oh well.

    Might pick it up later when its about £15.

    Perhaps onlive will have it soon...

    URGH


    i keep gettin my butt handed to me in MP

    its like i have a gigantic glowing arrow floating over me saying "HERE I AM KILL ME FIRST"

    i die CONSTANTLY


    and it seems like it takes FOREVER for me to kill someone. I can unload full clips on guys and they still kill me with like two bullets. wtf




    MP is still a mixed bag for me [i think its better than the beta] but campaign is totally where its at in this game


    more of y'all need to play this game! its cool :p

    When you do stealth kill, your cloak will be disabled. After you made the kill, your cloak will turn back on.

    By far my favorite part so far was ripping off the mini-me off the truck before you get the alien DNA samples and MURKFEST '99 This game is awesome.

    Picked up the PS3 limited edition about a week and a half ago and played through the single player campaign. Never played the first but I really dig this one. I've also played a lot of multiplayer (Instant Action) and I've done alright with it. Still learning the controls in the fast-paced online play, but it's just fun to run around and kill while using the suit and its abilities.

    I may play through single player again at some point to pick up the stuff I missed, but as of now, it's all online for a while.

    Well, if we go by the time period between the original and this one, get ready for a 4 year wait.

    Yeah but the original had two massive expansions, though. I'm not sure they'll go in for that now, but it's a possibility we might see some Dragon Age awankening style dlc packs + seperate adventure as a budget release.

    Or get charged through the arse for dlc - I'm not sure how they're going with it. ;)

    So as temporary (arguably) insanity has seemingly taken hold of me, I'm thinking about picking this game up. Bulletstorm just has me in the mood to play another game as a moving gun.

    Any tips for the most efficient methods of murdinating?

    Just started this. Probably shouldn't have kicked it off on the hardest setting but thus far it's kinda... garbage :( 

    It looks fuckin' amazing though :eek:

    Why do you think it's gabage?

    I'm asking because I've been back and forth about buying this game. Is it pretty but broken? Boring?

    Played for 15 min, not my cup of tea. Taking it back for trade now. Another one of those whim buys.

    The weapons feel weak and innefective. Add to that, piss poor enemy AI, terrible encounter design and substandard signposting you have a generally poor game that looks mostly awesome.

    Also; the story... good grief. It wouldn't be so bad but you can't skip it.
