Anyone played it? If so how is it? I'll download it later. I'm downloading the Twisted Metal MP demo as soon as I get home.

I tried it. I honestly can't tell if I like it or not.  :lol

The hud and all the visual shit is annoying and confusing. It doesn't tell you how to do anything including throw grenades (Hold Y).


I did like the basic gunplay and its actually pretty challenging and tough. You don't regen your health. Somebody has to heal you which they can do from a distance. If you go down though you have to be hard rebooted with the person near you. So it inspires more of cohesive team play style which I really like.

So I kinda like the challenge but I'm not sure if I liked the actual game. I'd need to play it more to make that call. The only way to play this really seems as a co-op experience.

I think I like it more if I could aim better.  It's an improvement over The Darkness and Riddick, but I can't do what I want and it's frustrating.  It's doing that sluggish/laggy thing Killzone and Crysis 2 do.  It can be unresponsive too when pulling off a melee attack, and there's general weirdness where the character gets confused and flops his gun around.

But I do like it.  Co-op mode seems really cool on its own.

I don't mind the hud.  Once you get past how overloaded everything, its easy to tune it out and focus on attempting to shoot people.
 
Also, sliding! I'm so happy every game has sliding these days.

Does it have anything similar to the strategy game in feel?
