I came buckets, and then had to re-watch 2001.

Well, I did watch the film…

Now all we need is a Rendezvous with Rama map.

Shame my comp can’t run this. I’m all over the concept.

Also, this has to be the best kill montage in recent FPS history.

Guest passes have been received. I’ve offered one to linfosoma further up the comment thread and sent one to a friend who wanted to check SH out, which means I have one left. Any takers?

The cited hardware survey is from October 2009, the same month Windows 7 went to retail – so likely yes and no since the survey replies are probably staggered over the month.

Also, initial problems with Vista aside, another reason it wasn’t greatly adopted was because it wasn’t perceived to have offered anything over XP aside from a shiny interface. While Windows 7 will most certainly enjoy a higher adoption rate I don’t think the XP majority is going to disappear overnight.

I think this game is just about perfect, I’m loving the simplicity of it. It’s really a pure skill shooter, but it’s an entirely new set of skills for the FPS genre.

For what it’s worth, the Eurogamer review pretty much sums up the good and bad of the game. Honestly it’s more fun to just float around and mess around with the space-gimmick aspect of the whole thing than it is to actually engage in combat. Maybe this is partially because I haven’t played a multiplayer shooter without classes in a very long time, and this is the first one I can think of that only has one weapon to it, but both of these things seem pretty necessary, or at least would flesh out this particular game experience a lot more. Space vehicles would be nice too, as would a lot of other stuff too.

All in all, I played this game for maybe an hour or two, enough to realize that unless you’re one of those super Counter-Strike/Halo “I can shoot you from a thousand yards away while you’re sprinting and bunny hopping in the milisecond your head is exposed without even zooming in” players you’re probably not going to be very good at this game. I’m pretty good at games like Battlefield 2, Team Fortress 2 and Left 4 Dead and the like, but this game is pretty difficult, and pretty much requires super precise aiming from long distances, and even then you’re probably going to get owned.

its not that much of the twitchy sort if you don’t want to.

whenever i get into twitchfests in the game i get killed pretty quick, but i tend to be on top of the list because i creep around and kill people with my suit off. theres a lot to the game really, and you can enjoy it without being a good shot.
