Having played it, wow. They must of really photoshopped those screenshots above because the 360 version looks EXACTLY the same as i remember on PC. quite good fun, seems to be a lot more natural on the 360 than on the PC. multiplayer is, predictably, complete ass.

Bought this game on PC the first day it came out and wasnt dissapointed.. there were some bugs but after a couple patches the game was up to speed. The multiplayer was pretty fun as well, reminded me of hexen dm.
