Wow i was suprised. Good music, good gameplay, not just your run-of-the-mill FPS like Quake 4.

360 demo should be coming out next week.

I did a blog post on my first impressions

I'm still holding out some hope that the 360 demo arrives tomorrow... probably not going to happen, I guess.

I'm looking to put both demos through their paces, and really see how the 360 stands up to the task.

I agree... This was a sweet demo.

Nothing like hearing Don't Fear The Reaper while being abducted by aliens... Seemed fitting.

Yeah i thought that was priceless too. And fighting to You've Got Another Thing Comin' was pretty sweet too.

Not bad. Quite like the look of it. Enjoyed the opening introduction quite a bit. It is the first FPS I've ever played that stops the conversation with the NPC if you walk away (they even call you back). Nice touch.

I'm sure this will be quite a fun game, but it doesn't bring anything new to the table from what I've seen.

I beg to differ. Gravity Walks and Portals add a lot to the gameplay and experience.

I feel sorry enough for anybody trying to grab it off Fileplanet...there's far better download choices out there. Actually, torrents are moving it right along faster than the conventional download method, so if you've got a good enough connection that's the way to go.

Anyway, I played it last night. From my first autosave to the last was from 8:42 to 9:52. Last puzzle was very easy, but it seemed to cause trouble for some folks. Great demo, except for the stabby stabby bit ;O

For better options than just FilePlanet (Which I really don't like) then try this:

Also (like Ed Oscuro said) torrents will work great.

I'm downloading now and will check it out. Was pleased with the footage seen at E3.

This one's pretty fast:

Bump, so what did you think of the 360 demo?

[diskoboy]

I enjoyed the 360 demo more than I did the PC demo.

I actually liked the 360's controls, better than I did the PC's for some reason.

My one and only complaint with the game is with whoever does the voice for the main character. A few more acting lessons are in order.

Well yeah...they are portals.

I played the 360 demo last night and can safely say that the game was worth the wait.

[unbroken]

This game is seriously awesome. For some reason I loved playing every bit of that demo for pc, I'm gonna get this the first day of release.

[meancode]

first impressions mean a lot. and first impression of six people multiplayer was just horrible. unplayable.

single player was good. hope they fix the multiplayer lag issues, really do.

but that was bad.

I've only tried the single player. It seems that often times games have issues with their multiplayer modes. That's too bad. The single player is pretty damn good though, at least what I've seen of it so far. Sure, it's just another FPS, but it looks to be an enjoyable FPS romp.

I can tell you that I'm going to be sending two of my games back and putting this and NCAA Football at the top of my queue. Those will be two nice releases to check out.

[digitalmouse]

Is anyone else feeling sick after playing through the demo? I usually never get motion sick, but after I played the game on live I felt like throwing up.

All of that walking upside down and shit. Ugh...

[PDorr3]

1 player: based on demo it started out awsome, I thought it looked great and all, but then once u got inside the ship it just felt like every other FPS, and reminded me alot of quake 4. Online is your standard unreal.quake afair, but the more I played it today the more fun I had w/ it all, especialy the spirit walking and all.

\Still trying to get used to the dizzying flipping around and such though...

[diskoboy]

Bumping the topic...

The game just came out today. I picked up my copy.

[meancode]

I am gonna go pick it up today after work. I can't wait.

[K3V]

Yep, getting mine after work today too. Class tonight, though, so I won't get to play for a while
