If there is a demo which i doubt i will try it,but there is no way I'm paying £15 for this and whats out just around the corner.

This game would have to be awesome to stop me paying Uncharted and MW3 and i just don't see it having any lasting appeal in such a crowded market and release schedule that is the next 3 weeks.

Saying that if mrnelster our dear gaming friend says its really good then i might take the bait and pay for it,but this seriously depends on good words from him and the reviews that come out from all the gaming sites.smile

Based on the fact it's a Shooter mate then the negative points at the end of the review are not that promising.

You'll hate
Actual shooting isn't satisfying
Menus could have been more helpful
No competetive multiplayer

Actually why i am on the subject what happened to the game release and where is it on the Playstation store,the Americans have it which is not a surprise but Europe its nowhere to be seen.

Unless it got put up there today because it was not listed on yesterdays update.?

Could have been worse mate it could have packed up Tuesday 8TH November then you would be seriously crying in your soup.

All my mates are doing the Midnight launch palaver but I'm going to restrain myself and let Shopto.net do the business.if ever there was a time i wanted a game early then this is it,if ever there was a time to fail to meet a delivery then this aint it... mad

Im hoping i get it Monday but on games like MW3 and others like Halo and strict review embargo and street release dates getting broken then i think its going to be on the Tuesday day of release and not the usual day or two early................

Going to give Battlefield 3 a proper play test next Friday and then moan on here tongue and get the forums alive with banter smile

Im not mate its just a little stupid that PC gamers can download it and its not available on the PSN network when they stated the other week this games release date.

Europe always gets shafted by Sony and basically we always get the content last,i was annoyed the other day when i turned on the PC to find a email from Sony thanking me for my payment of £39.99 for Playstation Plus subscription mad.

Apparently Automatic Subscription was left on and i had failed to realise.

Finally managed to get my hands on it and I totally agree, but it has the potential for great fun with four mates.

http://m.gamespot.com/reviewDetails.rbml?id=6343821&...

As the reviewer states, you have to turn it to easy if you play alone. The AI is pretty dismal at times with them getting in the way, and shooting and healing before you have a chance. It's not so bad with 2 and 2 bots as there is always someone to help you up. And you will definitely need that on a regular basis!

This review sums the game up perfectly, but my only criticism is the controls feel. It is much the same as BF3 but doesn't respond quite as well to slower tuning as I (and Swanny) found necessary in BF3.
But for high speed frantic action with objectives thrown in, the teamplay is essential.

Polished its not. But if you don't take beating it too seriously and jack up the soundtrack, it thrashes zombies for enjoyability. All I need now is three other PS3 pilots to join my crusade. cool

For a while, yes. grin

But for a 4 way co-op it will offer some fun that MW3 is missing. If you liked Heat you will appreciate the style of this game. I think it will be a pick up and play title for me for a long time.

Granted that will be at the back of my mind when silky smooth Mr. Modern Warfare comes a knocking!

Why do other developers not create a similar balance and weight of it's controls? Because they don't want to in some blind attempt at perceived realism, or because it is a technically difficult feat that only Infinty Ward have achieved? I think it is misguidedly the former.

Anyway. Tuesday, bring on them bomb dogs lol! grin

Downloaded the demo and deleted it 20 minutes later,don't know about the 4 player co/op because i have not got that many friends on the psn wink

Got more admirers on here [not] with Spook being my number one admirer a little bit like misery and Kathy Bates in that sort of way..........Spook would love to put a plank between my ankles and utter the words .........Repeat after me T2D ........Battlefield 3 rules MW3 is Pants.

Hence to say T2D never walked again wink because what he asked was just to much smile

Nah, I would super glue your butt to your PC chair and your hand to a mouse. That way you would never be able to hold a console controller and would have no choice but to sit close to your computer!
