Anybody try this? Kinda fun. Not sure it's worth $60, but it's on the bargain bin radar. I like the combo system. It gives it more of a Japanese action game feel. I also like the emphasis on run n' gun. I can see the higher difficulty levels being brute memorization, which can be unappealing, but if the level design holds up well, it may be worth picking up later.

I feel the same way pretty much. At $40 this would have been an easy pick up, but $60 is just too much.

It reminds me of Stranglehold. The production values just aren't there, probably due to the developer getting use to the tools. It's a shame they probably shelled out top dollars for the engine, but have to go through this learning phase and compete against the likes of CoD and Bioshock.

Have to agree here. It has some sorta potential, but not for 60 bucks. I like that they are doing something different, but I'd really have to see more of the multiplayer to know if it would be worth it. As of now, Turok seems more fun, based on demo alone.

It's not bad it just doesn't feel complete. If arcades still existed This would probably be pretty sweet in a multi cabinet multi player set up.

The demo is on the 360 but considering it is being published by Sega I am pretty sure it's going to be a multi-platform game.

I'd be happy if Xbox Live would let me download it.

The demo is pretty good. I agree with others. It's not $60 worth of "pretty good" but I'd definitely pick it up on sale for $40.

I found it to be enjoyable, but I don't like the art direction. It's too realistic for the game. I almost think it should feel like a modern day smash TV with the enemies body part lighting up where you hit them. Maybe it's just because the game plays so unrealistically, that having fairly stock foes and levels creates a strange sense.

I am not sure if the MP mode would be any fun with the way the shooting is, which is kinda meh. I enjoy the rshed feeling to kill before the combo meter runs out.

It's not as refined feeling as Project Gotham is. I think the inclusion of an attempt at a plot hurts the game from being an honest arcade-ish shoot-em-up. But I think Bizzare was trying to make it be PGR with a gun. They got closer to their goal that Criteron did in making Black a Burnout with a gun.

I finally got to play it this morning and found it to be dull and clunky. Very disappointing, particularly in light of Tycho talking it up the other day in the post.
