| The game is nothing more than someones idea to release a tech demo, call it a game, and then release an improved version later on. The combat is a joke and i found myself wanting a permanent gun other than a limited use of one. No doubt guaranteed there will be a second game |

That's no tech demo. Maybe you're being sarcastic, but the game is real. Average reviews for console is 9/10. I haven't seen it in store or bought it on console, but if nVidia is partnering with them for PhysX I think overall it should be really cool on PC. I'll wait for it on PC. I'm looking forward to this one myself.  |

No i'm being serious, i have played it on PS3 and it's so disjointed it's clumsy and clunky. There will be a second released.
Combat is nothing more than a 'hit and hope' other than the bullet time feature. When the screen is full of 3 or 4 bad guys it's lights out! |
