Is anyone playing this game right now? Target (according to Cheap Ass Gamer) is going to be selling this game for like $28 or $29 this Sunday and I'm interested in buying it. I'd love to rent it but the local rental shops don't have any in stock.
So, what's the word on this title? How's multiplayer? Is the level editor cool?

I've only played multi-player on this one. A buddy of mine has it and 4 of us played once through all the maps. I though it was pretty good. The vehicles seemed a little tricky to drive though I only tried to drive one once. The one's I saw were a Hummer, jet ski, ATV, boat and a hang glider.
There were the usual weapons, pistol, knife, shotgun, machine gun,grenades, sniper rifle and variations on such. a few maps had turrets. there were health and armour pickups.
You could also set traps. I gpt this to work in the demo and it seemed pretty cool. Didn't have any luck with it in multi.
There is another power up called "Predator" where you get a temporary boost in strength and speed. Your melee attacks become one hit kills and you see your enemies heat signature. The bad thing is you get a weird blurred tunnel like vision. It's a little difficult to see when in predator mode.
For $30 it's worth it for the multi player alone I think.

Yeah the multiplayer looks Ace
I liked the DEMO alot and hope to pick it up but I want to finish Far Cry on PC first.
I bought the game the day it came out....finished it in one sitting....and took it back for full refund credit the next day. Super easy....I mean RIDICULOUSLY easy. But it sure looks and sounds sweet while it lasts. It was a great, albeit short romp. It fizzled out near the end as well. The story got really stupid.
