      Just a quickie, the Nordic release is set for Feb 25, isn't it the 27th in the UK? This happend a while back with another game, it gets chucked out in Norway and Sweden a few days early. Odd.

        Looks great, good sound, good level but i just found the controls horrible....turning and looking around felt to weighty and slow even with sensitivity up full.

        The cover system didn't sit well with me either, holding a button to cover, pressing the stick up then holding a button in to aim then pressing another button to fire, i think holding 3 buttons in to fire from cover is a bit to much, yes i know i can have it so the aim is toggle rather than hold but i can't use it like that.

        I hope they include an option so you stick to the wall with one press rather than holding the button. Also noticed when in cover if theres a target right in front of you, your gun gets in the way so you can't see where you are aiming, which was a bit sucky.

        Not bad but hasn't set me on fire.

          I'm pretty sure one of the dpad directions shows you a way point

            I found the demo to be mostly noisy. Yeah, that's one noisy game. BOOM! ARRRGH! And so on.

            It seems like a rather polished game - looks nice and detailed and the effects, like the explosions, are great. I had problems with the RPG - after eventually finding it (if he's so into the RPG, why didn't he pick it up and bring it to me?), I picked it up, it seemed to drop immediately and I couldn't pick it up again. Seemed grenades did the same job though so I didn't need it to begin with.

            I had trouble aiming but I think that's the loose stick on the PS3 controller rather than anything in the actual game. I find the 360's sticks much better for games like this.

            But, yeah, mostly it's noisy. KABOOM!

            I never played the orginal - who am I fighting?

              Its up on the d-pad. I did it when i was messing around with the controls, i thought i was ordering my allies to places. LoL.

              I never used it to find where i am going though.

                Loved the demo, I just hate the PS3 pad for FPS's (can't stand the sticks, never have and never will )

                Still getting it though

                  The guys that were shooting at you. The other ones are your friends

                    Yes, I had managed to figure that out after quite a few friendly fire incidents but why am I fighting them? Are they just enemies? People I don't like?

                      The US military aren't involved then?

                      There's a whole story to it all as you might imagine but bottom line is they are the same race as you but were sent to live on another planet for some reason, a planet with poisonous gas fro an atmosphere and now they're a bit miffed. I'm glossing over quite a bit.

                        Ah, it's like The Wrath of Khan. Sort of.

                            Just had another go, in the warehouse me and an enemy got a big fright when we ran round a corner and bumped into each other - I unloaded my assault rifle into him and it was pretty grotesque stuff, I can see why this is an 18 certificate

                              what made the demo for me was the warehouse ambush section the way enemies make effective use of cover is fantastic, the fact that they are sat on the floor with there backs against cover blindfireing at you while there mates creep up on you really makes you think they have the ai right here,

                              cant wait for this now as the multiplayer in the beta was fantastic.
