The Les Dawson video traumatised me a lot more than the Dead Space ones.

Mirrors Edge still gets the too much hype award imho, but this is for sure getting less and less interesting the more we see. Fighting in a vacuum with zero G could be fun. Haven’t done that since some low grav half life maps long time ago.

Eh. Who cares really, les is apparently exclusive to the 360 version. This game is getting far too much press and the videos make the controls seem terrible, call back when you have a demo dead space.

The line gun video looks dreadful. Pretty, but dreadful.

Said it before but the more videos we see the more it shows – trying to dodge and kill a nasty monster looks deeply frustrating due to the movement and targeting being so unresponsive and imprecise.

@EyeMessiah: the worrying thought is that the person playing the game is actually the best they could find, and is being crippled by the controls…

So the questions are: are these videos recorded from a console, and assuming the answer is yes, does the PC version have standard mouse + keyboard controls which don’t suck the console ones apparently do?

“That just looks rubbish. Every single video I’ve watched of this game makes me think every weapon is rubbish and the targetting (reticule) is shocking. The knockbacks are over the top and the 3rd person is annoying.”

My thoughts exactly — that is one of the worst goddamn camera angles, ever. Watch me be scared when I see… my back! Oh noes! Is that my shoulder? Wait, there’s a monster here? Oh…

I can’t wait for Dead Space. It looks very event horizony.

What puzzles me is why they (GAME PEOPLE IN GENERAL) always get someone who clearly sucks at the game to make these videos.

It looks positively Silent Hill-ish. Sure, the weapons are a bit silly (especially the secondary rifle fire) but feel very visceral anyway.

there is no FPP mode

you are alone 90% of the time

NPC talks are rare

And yes, ppl shooting things is really something soooo boring that noone wants to do it. shooting is NONSENSE!
