I really didn't think this was going to be a AAA title going into the demo. But it was truly hard to tell if it was the level selected or the fact the demo only lets you play one character that screws this game to the wall. The game has a horrible story about being made to play in some kind of bloodsport much like movies like, "Most Dangerous Game," "Best of the Best 4," and many other terrible B flicks.
This part of the game isn't important, but come on guys lets not pretend there is a story. The game is pretty much one step up from a light gun shooter. In fact, considering the element of the game that makes you run around like an idiot, the game might have been better served as a light gun game.
The multiplayer, which is probably going to be the best part of this game; was locked in the demo. I can't wait to get a final copy and see how the multiplayer stands up to other titles in the shooter genre. I understand there is the ability to switch from first to third person perspectives, but considering the amount of dodging and running in this game you will probably find yourself in third person most of the time.
The guns have no kick and shooting seems too arcadey. I would have preferred a less arcade-like atmosphere and more devastating effects from weapons. Most of the machine guns take too many shots to kill enemies and the shotgun is good but you have to be on top of the guy for it to work.
But before I rant about this title anymore, I want to wait to play the final version. Here's hoping it will get better.
