Hitman wasn't that linear. There was no place in SC where you could choose between two paths (backdoor or frontdoor, that kind of thing). You always had to do Exactly as the developers planned, which was kind of annoying.
I know what you mean, it was the biggest letdown of the first game. Only the CIA HQ infiltration mission had any non-linearity. But, the devs have promised "multiple entry points" for Pandora Tomorrow. How much improvement that translates into is sketchy, but it will be better for sure.

I may buy this one but only after I play a multiplayer demo. Does anyone know if there is one planned?

Exactly. SC2 multiplayer won't be awesome in spite of 4 player maximum, it will be awesome *beacuse* of it. It's about time we had a FPS game (well, FPS/3PS) that allows a very small group of people to have a fufilling online experience without the need of hopeless AI. And because of the asymmetrical team structure, it shouldn't devolve into a simple creeping and sniping match.

I'll reckon it'll be about the same. The multiplayer will give it long lasting appeal though.

Does anyone know if this game will take longer to complete than the first one?
The original seemed kinda short to me.

| If this game is not so linear as the first SC, I might pick it up. The first one was awefully linear, which really dampened pleasure. |

A nice franchise sure, but doesn't deserve nearly the amount of hype the console fanbois heap on it.
MMmm, like Goldeneye...
Though I do have to say that I have been turned onto console FPS's in the past few years. Mainly due to their ability to play coop games with friends in my living room. It's alot easier than having them bring their computers for a LAN party, and console games are forging ahead of PC's (imho) in the area of coop play.

All MGS is cinematic dramatism and bad acting thrown in. Sure MGS1 was cool when it came out for the PS1, but geez it's not like there weren't stealth games on the PC before it. A nice franchise sure, but doesn't deserve nearly the amount of hype the console fanbois heap on it.

not really a candle to metal gear solid franchise however.
Splinter Cell ownz MGS in the stealth department. MGS is good yet old fashioned stealth gameplay. MGS needs to update its gameplay. I even think Tenchu is more realistic than MGS, at least you can look around easily. And, the enemies dont respawn either.

The immediate outcry from PC gamers like myself is "wow, way to consolize a game even more", but I read an article exclaiming how the game would only work just right if it was 2v2. So I guess it shouldn't be that bad; the premise for it sounds freakin amazing.

4 players total, on two teams, AFAIK. Should be interesting.

But as has already been said, good use of unreal engine, still runs like ass though, god knows epic can't code like carmack.
The Unreal engine (running Unreal games) runs great for me.. I don't where you get that from. Just because certain games using that engine don't run so well, doesn't mean it is Epic's fault. And as for Carmack's coding ability, we'll see about that when Doom3 is released.

I actually hated the first game until I sat down and slowly played it, i actually got into it heavily, while i hate stealth games I do agree this was quite decent, not really a candle to metal gear solid franchise however.
But as has already been said, good use of unreal engine, still runs like ass though, god knows epic can't code like carmack.
