Nope, your right on time!

Well done Atari! Maybe there's life in the old dog yet.

Take one 360, add some chopped PS3, stir in some Wii, a sprinkling of DS Lite. Enjoy :)

I'm rather bummed at the fact that the AI doesn't seem to fight back at all.

They said they went through a lot of problems during development and it feels like they made the game in about 2 months time. It seems apparent in the ai, but the game interests me nonetheless lets see how it works out :D

And it's short. But anyway, they're some downloadable content (New costume, guns and mission) coming out too.

Yeah, I had the exact same.
In the trailers it looked pretty awesome, but seeing the gameplay as it is, it's just so dull.
There at most maybe 4 or 5 enemies on screen, and it takes like a whole magazine to kill one enemy and meanwhile they're just standing there doing absolutely nothing, it's pretty pathetic really.
Also, the aiming seems pretty awkward aswell (ala Far Cry Predator).

I like the look of the game though, and graphics wise it reminds me alot of Ghost Recon for some reason, maybe it's the lighting or so.

Anyway, I'll wait and see how this one turns out...

I thought Bullet Witch hadn't been released, but then i found this guy RANCE6 who had apparently gained Bullet Witch achievements. If you look at his profile at Xbox.com you can see that he have gained 8/14 achievements.

I have Bullet Witch, and it's an *ok* game.
It's fun for a weekend or maybe to show your friends, but the gameplay is kind of boring, the AI is retarded, and you do have to unload nearly an entire clip of your gun to take one out.

On the plus side, visually it's pretty amazing, the backgrounds can be a bit boring, bu the animations and the sheer size of some of the characters and explosions, etc. are pretty darn nice to look at.

Yeah indeed, it's a pretty game, but like you say the AI is just pathetic, and the aiming is very unpleasent, as is confirmed by the 1up guys.
All in all it seems very dull, too bad, I hadn't seen this game coming so it was a pleasent surprise, but after seeing the gameplay and some reviews, I won't bother with it...

at least the enemies react to shots now. In the early vids they were just standing there. Now they rattle a bit when shot :)

You can see it in the 2 gameplay vids on gametrailers

Agreed, totally. The gameplay needs a lot of something to be anything but boring.
