I really have no idea why, but this game speaks to me on some level. Perhaps it's the Cold War-era thinking I still have (Mine being the last generation...), perhaps it's a few other things...
Anyhow, just wondering if I'm alone in thinking about this game here... |

seeing how most info points at it being console only, i am so not going to buy it.
and even if it does get a computer port, i'll still be sceptical . . porting from PC>Console: OK, NOT the other way around |

It's coming to PC, and the job of that is being done in my neck of the woods by Digital Extremes.
They look like they might have a decent enough track record. |

I've been keeping an eye on it for a while now. Not in a tremendous rush to pick up another shooter right this second (still digesting a few Call of Duty games that I finally got around to buying), but it's definitely the next shooter on my list.

Bulletstorm was OK, but suffered from Epic beating People Can Fly over the heads too much, methinks.
Great for a single play through, but anything more than that... Well, I guess it's how much you like getting as many points as possible... |

That's the one I will get with my new computer in a few months (as soon as the corrected P67 boards are available). @Homefront: It does look interesting. I'm not big on shooters, but I might take a look if it gets good reviews. Bye Thanee |

In that case, I would wait for the next generation before thinking about upgrading. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

That IS the next generation.
I jumped over the 2x series of nVidia, i jumped over the 3x/4x series of nVidia. I jumped over the 5x and 6x series of ATI. Basically, this is the 3 or 4th generation from my current one <.< |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) At least, if those listings on tomshardware are correct, that card is about on par with 2nd tier current cards. That's more than enough (for me, anyways), and there is no reason to upgrade (yet). Or is that card too slow for you? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Bye Thanee |

Yah, i know . .
it bugs me to no end, that if i go from windowed to full screen with something that's full HD, it becomes SMALLER! x.x But i simply do not have the Space or Money for Bigger Screens. And i simply can not go back to using only one screen <.<;, |

My TV is an old CRT Monster that only has one antenna and 2 SCART Plugs.
It weights about half as much as i do and we had to lift that thing with 4 people to get it up into my room and to it's resting place . . if that thing ever crashes through the cabinet it's standing on, it's going to take out about 2k€ worth of hardware directly beneath it. and if it decides to fall onto my bed while i'm in there, i'm gonna lose both legs at the knees i think. and i don't think that i'd stop it. it'd probably go right through me and the bed and hopefully be stopped by the floor beneath that <.< . . |

Well, it comes out Tuesday, I'll have to give a report on how I like it.
As I said, something about the game universe and storyline (What there is of one in a FPS) speaks to me for some reason. Until then, Fallout: New Vegas. |

Read some reviews today, they were not a good as I hoped. Main criticism seem to be the CoD-esque fights against endless hordes of respawning enemies, which is not exactly how one would imagine a guerrilla campaign. Also some level design issues, AI probs, and for the German translation they obviously hired the guy who wrote the vehicle names in W! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Reviews also mentioned the story is very, very short - only about five hours worth of single-player play. That tells me they're holding out the lion's share for eventual sequels - not a way I like doing things.
