very meh. Brainless action has it's place..but it bores easily. And this looks very much in the fashion of doom/serious sam.. I dont expect to be challenged by AI but numbers.
If they can add some 4player co-op throughout and have you competing kill points then it might be worth a look
Looks like worthy successor to Painkiller :) It's nice that there is a game every now and the that just drops all the shitty cliche story lines in favor of just...killing tons of dudes.
Haven't played an FPS in a long time...can't even remember when last i did. I freaking hate military shooter games in general so i just play the Halos and Half-lifes and so forth. last i tried was Metro i think, only played it for like an hour before i got bored with it. This though? Looks nice. Action packed if nothing else. the combo system looks kind of fun as well, sounds right up my alley.
yay! another fps, but this time there's a... score lol - i really wonder if it's just fear of innovation, or lack of skill or the realization that the mass market just wants more of the same sheep ware, that stops FPS's from moving past new skins and stories...

When a game like MW2 sells 7million+, that tells you something.

Not feeling it at all ,I think it will suck so bad!!
I agree.
Even the characters looks exactly straight from Unreal and Gears universes, hell the main character you play as looks exactly like Dom (isnt a good thing). Epic really lacks in art, maybe a miracle one of their games has a different approach (Shadow Complex, if thats the name), the rest is just exactly the same.
I dont mind the score thingy, but it seems to be a cliche approach to run and gun through the entire game and see gore in action and watching the score numbers go higher.
Besides, for such games, third person is much better than first person considering if the character can do some sort of "special movements", we want to see the character actually perform it and not in first person were all we see is a leg coming up for a second and goes down again LOL.
Site is too full of haters of every bloody genre it seems, and this game looks rather slick and pretty stylish, I like it hope it does well. If devs do something truely innovative 9 times out of 10 it does poorly sales wise and people wonder why we don't get something totally fresh....nevermind how games have been going for 20+ years now new good/great ideas aren't exactly fresh for the taking.

since when was a score based FPS in anyway innovative? the club did this like 3 years ago.
at the end of the day a crap game is a crap game, innovation or "freshness" isnt going to change that. it was the case with the club, and it'll no doubt be the case with this.
KORN: well as i understand it the scoring system here is there as an incentive for you to vary your playing and to make you go about disposing of your opponents in more creative ways than just shooting them in the head. Also The Club was a pretty nice game, if you treated it like the arcade shooter romp that it was.
It's funny how everybody is jumping on the hate bandwagon for no other reason than it being an FPS too. You know, as controversial as this may sound, it might still be a good game. It get's even more awkward (or funny depending on your position) when you sneak a peak at the Reach thread and see everybody creaming their pants over what is essentially Halo 4 and very much identifiable as such. Isn't that boring as shit and lacking in innovation? BLEAARGHH!!! Another goddamn FPS with fucking space marines and aliens! But oh wait they slapped the Halo logo on there, so it's the best thing since the big bang! :D:D:D
