Not touching this. Another linear SP experience with weak multiplayer. Fact that it comes from VUG means insufficient support for the game after the release. Not gonna waste anymore cents on another VUG's product, done that three times during this year and always ended up with a game with so much of potential but ruined by the lack of support or weak multiplayer content.

And we already had this slowmotion fps thing on N64's Perfect Dark, so its not a new thing in any way.

I played through this demo last week at G-Phoria. It's $@#&ing good. The combat has an incredibly solid, visceral feel to it -- the way the guys go down when you shoot them is incredibly satisfying. If they keep up the intensity of the demo for the entire game, it's gonna be something else indeed.

The only thing that I am gonna knitpick about with this game, is it's architecture. I've played the MP beta and watched almost all the videos, and I've notcied the same thign; the architecture / rooms seems a little too square and blocky. Again, im just knitpicking, ok i'll shutup now.
