After trying some other multiplayer only demo which ended up being very buggy, I don't bother with multiplayer only demos anymore.

haven't played it myself, but early impressions I've read have not been favorable at all.

I've been looking foward to the release of the new Bionic Commando but to be honest I didn't even know it was gonna have multiplayer in it. Guess I'll have to check out the demo this evening to see what it's all about.

This is exactly what came to my mind. I dont see how multiplayer for it could be any fun. I dont even know if I can bring myself to download. I already have heard about issues with the single player control wise, I dont get how that would transfer over to a grea multiplayer experience.

Been playing it for some time this morning. I was going to say that it is a slow paced shooter, but thats not correct. It's all about swinging and mobility. The shooting is fun, but not revolutionary.

The controls take a bit of time to get used to it. But I like it so far.

Sweet Christmas! I'm still playing the redone version of the original so obviously I'm kinda stoked for the new one. I'm not getting my hopes up though, all I need is a game worthy of renting. *crosses fingers* Has anyone tried the multiplayer already?

My first thought was "eh"...but after my 2nd play i got the hang of it and did pretty well. I wish there was a training ground feature so you don't have to learn while you're getting shot at.

Aiming takes some getting used to, as well as the mechanics of the swinging. You will no doubt come across people trying to stumble up a wall or just hanging from their cable helpless.

All in all, it's fun. ALso keep in mind you will be able to have upgrade for your bionic arm in the single player game...maybe you will in multi also?

I need a tutorial. I can't get used to the controls :(

[Primus]

Not as fun as I thought it would be.
