I downloaded this on ps3 and really love it. I have played it like 3-4 hours. I love just running around and destroying buildings in different ways. This game is looking really awesome, as long as it is a sandbox game where you can cause havoc between missions this will turn out great.

Loved it. The shooting mechanics are a bit sluggish, but I had a blast.
My worry is the destruction is too fun, and the temptation to break stuff is going to override the mission objectives. I played the demo twice before I cared enough to actually try the mission itself because it was way more fun to run a dump truck through buildings.

kept getting killed by dudes, when all i wanted to do was break stuff. was there any way to heal yourself at all? i hope this was just because it's a mission, and that inbetween it's easier to just break stuff.

I think you heal by avoiding getting shot for a bit (ala Halo).
I thought the demo was okay. The gimmick of using the mech (or whatever they call it) to blow stuff up is fun at first but I hope there's more variety to the gameplay. I also found the on-foot controls, particularly the aiming and shooting, to be a little wonky.

Yea the shooting mechanics were just ok, but who really cares, much more fun wacking the people with hammers haha.

I gotta agree with everyone. The gunplay isn't anything new but I'll be damned if it isn't fun hitting things with that hammer.

I kept giggling. That's a good sign.
I loved the first one on PC and have looked forward to the day I could destroy pretty much everything in sight again.

Since i'm not at home anyone know how big the XBL demo is? I'm under a gig of space and I don't know if i've got enough space to download it to try considering that most shooter demos seem to run about a gig.

575 mb or 757 mb or something to that effect... it was certainly under a gig though.
I didn't really care for it, although smashing through anything with the hammer was amusing.
