I think most people will wait to pick this one up.

Single Player only, so it's not like you'll be missing out on online fun with your buddies.

I'm not hugely interested in this game, but the Spec Ops (or is it survival..?) mode looks very fun.

That isn't a bonus race.. that is a gift, if you choose to work with the companions and after doing a few missions with them, they give you the choice of becoming one or not.
I did it, it is a novelty but has got out me out of a couple situations. But now, to be honest, I'm looking for the cure for it, if there is one.

But bonus race... come on.
Hype officially squashed.

Why anyone would think 'interactive' cutscenes is a good idea is beyond me (especially in an FPS).

Do ANY of you guys enjoy pressing a button during a cutscene when prompted?
Does anyone at all?
Stupidest fucking "gameplay" mechanic every introduced, as far as I'm concerned.

Picture your favourite games that are packed with great cinematics. Now imagine pressing a button every 10 or so seconds, and if you don't, the scene is either paused, or restarts because you didn't and therefore failed.
Oh man... terrible.

By the way, does anyone else's significant other answer the door in sexy-time clothes?
Yeah, I lost all faith in the video after that happened... although I didn't have much faith as soon as I saw the first button press prompt.

That's what I'm thinking. The first two didn't do anything for me, but this looks so fucking over the top that it just has to be entertaining. It's like GTA gone down the rabbit hole. Thanks for the heads-up, nin.
Same. I played a tiny bit of SR2, and although it had it's small moments, I wasn't in to it.

This however, is fucking ridiculous... in the best way possible.

Looks like they haven't improved combat much. The animations are still terrible.

So what everyone here is saying is that they value graphics over gameplay?
If I'm fighting an enemy and he walks and attacks with horrible animations that ruin the immersion and take me out of the game, I classify that as a fault in gameplay.

To me, animations are in a category apart from graphics.

@jerykk: I'd rather they re-prioritize a bit. Practically all animations could be completed by one (better skilled) person during the dev cycle.

Wait wait wait.. If you liked FE and SE then why wouldn't you like this as it's following the same formula? Or are you wanting some chest high walls and regenerating health? Maybe some Blackhawk helicopters too?
Yes. Exactly. That's exactly what I'm insinuating. You nailed it, bud.

I hear ya space captain, I'm sure there are plenty of redeeming qualities within this game that will make it great, but I'm so disappointed by the poor animations and combat seen in the video that I'm not goin to shell out moola lickity split for this game. Ill wait and see...

I've been gaming for eons too, but these days I'm a whore for good animations since I've been spoiled by countless games that have pushed the envelope in that department.
Now I have animation quality high up on the list.
To each his own

I don't see hardware limits of consoles being an excuse for poor animations. It looks like your average Bethesda game to me, the dragons look cool though.

There is absolutely no excuse for poor animations, especially with the budget they harness... and especially when other games are pushing the boundaries of realistic ingame animations so much.

Bad animations suck you right out of being immersed in a game. To me, they are of very high priority.

Evidently, to some, they are not. Lookin at you Bethesda.

I liked the first and second encounters, but man does this look uninspired.

Nice cookie-cutter weapons they got there.

The maps pretty much follow the same suit.

Cancelling my pre-order.

One of the main reasons I've been so excited for this game is because they claimed to have redone all the horrible, amateur-looking animations from Oblivion and Fallout 3.
It appears this is not true...

I'll wait and see how this pans out. Hopefully the mod community jumps on Skyrim right after launch.

Typical DICE game, in any case. Yes, I feel obligated to say that. Man I can't stand the feel of their games.
What is it specifically that you don't like, Beamer?

To me, I find that the player movement is the best I've felt since the original FEAR

Never played the original Syndicate, but I think this looks pretty fun.

Kind of reminds me of the original FEAR, but with no slo-mo. Could just be the level design that looks similar to ARMACAM's offices in FEAR.

Looks enjoyable. I'd play it.
