Played it at a friend's because I didn't want to bother downloading it.

I don't like it.

I've been watching the gameplay videos and trailers for it... it doesn't really catch my interest. I suppose I'll play the demo sometime.

I thought I would be dissapointed but I thought it was great. It has a good control scheme along with a pretty original plot. Your arsenal is pretty customizable from what I've seen although you don't really get a chance to look at that in the demo.

I liked it but i will probably just rent it.

If anyone wants to play the demo on hard follow these steps:

1. Click on your account
2. Go to game defaults
3. General
4. Set difficulty to hard

Then when you start up the demo the hard mode is already selected.

I never followed the games development or watched any videos of it. Upon playing it, it was pretty kool. Gave a whole lot of suspense, something I'm not used to (Don't bring up other games that have it, keyword "I'm").
I disliked lack of body/feet and the loading screen stuff, which really removed me from the mindset I was in.

It wasn't like suspence built up in Condemned (great game btw). It was alot less creepy. I thought stuff was gunna be jumping out from the darkness...but nothing happened...I just walked by and back in the safety zone (light) I was...Still buying it though.

Woo finally played, bit short but very fun. The only bit I thought ruined it slightly was the fact that I'd just survived a plane crash, walked into this weird-ass city, and yet I'm injecting myself with this plasma stuff without a seconds thought.. oh well, rest of the demo makes up for it. Big daddy ftw :P

I thought the gameplay was great. Having powerups and weapons. The demo was short, but This is right behind halo 3 for me.
