Registered Armed & Dangerous Demo

An Armed & Dangerous Demo is now available from FilePlanet (registration required) as one of their exclusive dealies for registered users. The demo is a 172 MB download, and to install and run the demo you will need a unique key generated during the download. As is the case with these exclusives, the file will be made available to the general public at some point down the road.

Geez, a demo that takes up 750 megs... nice. It also took me FOREVER to install, which may have just been my computer having the fits, but since it goes from a sub-200 meg installer to 3/4 of a gig, there's a lot of decompression going on. Also, it's got that stupid verification GameSpy insists on. Shouldn't a demo, intended to entice me to buy the game, run as quickly and pain-free as possible?

Anyways, the game itself is ok, it has a good sense of humor, but it seems pretty repetitive, at least how much I played. Runs smooth as glass on an Athlon 2K/GF44400, even in widescreen hi-res with everything on. The guns are cool, but you get so little ammo for them, you're mostly left to your machine gun. For some reason, in the future the only improvement made to machine guns is that they hold 100 rounds/clip. Also, the game is rife with invisible walls, which can be a problem when you're trying to take shots in zoom mode and find yourself hitting the rock in front of you instead of the enemy. But man, shooting down the giant zeppelin is cool. The whole deal kinda reminds me of MDK, which isn't a bad thing.

Is there any way to play as the other characters? Anyone play the full version and find out?
