No update last week, was following Gamescon, IEM, and such. This week isn’t so much an update for a full recommendation as it is a demanding you to go fucking play Warhammer 40,000 Space Marine. Holy shit this demo. Once you’re done, come back and finish.
So problems with it:
People have had sound stuttering problems.
Too easy even on the hard difficulty setting. And I play with an abysmal framerate.
FoV Change – Not something I really need/notice but it’s nice to have so you don’t have to go through all the trouble changing it like you have to in say, Borderlands.
Ork Voices – Is it just me or do they not have sort of distinction? I could just be insane here.
Demo Options – Mine never save, every time I load up I have to change the options again.
Repeat Animations – This will get so old if the games long, and for the price I’d expect it to be at least a good medium length. I assume it will change with the weapons more so hopefully that’s not a big deal.
That being said I’m playing the FUCK out of this demo. I may have my minor gripes but I’m pretty satisfied. Game length pending for the price tag though. I was so desperate I played this on my pc. I get anywhere to full on freezes – 10 fps. I threw up twice playing the Assault mission (Constant bad framerate makes me sick), and it was TOTALLY FUCKING WORTH IT. Game feels good. So go play the Demo again.
Sidenote: Street Fighter 3rd Strike Online was released on the Playstation Network today. I recommend it for the 15 dollar price tag and it’s my favourite Street Fighter game. I can’t afford it and don’t have a Playstation 3 so go buy it in my stead! Releases on XBLA tomorrrow.
