I've not finished the demo yet, but when I do I may have more impressions to post.

for this type of game tho i think thats much better, instead of walking around and all of a sudden the screen says you picked up health! and your like wtf, how did that happen?

this has you checking garbage cans, checking dead bodies and things like that. if its a fast paced online or multiplayer shooter, then its better when you just walk over things.

Early reviewers are saying this game tops Ocarina of Time.

I completely agree, I'm just saying I didn't like it at first.

How can they compare it to OoT, though? It's a completely different game. They might be able to say "the enjoyment derived from playing this game is great than that of OoT", but that's not going to be true most of the time, it just depends on what kind of game the player likes.

many reviewers have said many games are better. and i'd agree with some, ocarina is a great great game, i wouldnt say its the best game ever tho.

Ocarina just has the best average review of all the reviewers. so far this game is 99% on gamerankings, with 9 reviews.... Ocarina is 97.7% with like 32 reviews.

I haven't read any reviews comparing the game to Ocarina of Time. That would be sort of an odd and unnecessary comparison.

If anyone is looking to pick up BioShock on the 21st the Xbox 360 will be $49.99 at Circuit City, which is a $10 savings.

booo to Xbox and controllers, Bioshock will be king on the PC!

fileplanet is putting up the demo at 7:00pm eastern time, today, i believe....but the torrent is already out as someone apparently hacked fileplanet or it got leaked

i'm curious as to how it will run on my computer....probably not at the native 1920x1200 resolution, haha

it looks like lots of fun and i haven't really submerged myself in a single player FPS since half-life 2 and Far Cry.

Downloading the demo for PC right now. But I plan to buy the game tomorrow anyway, lol. Just want something to do until then.
