First thing, I didn't see a topic on this on the first page, so if there was one and it died, I'm sorry, i didn't want to look through multiple pages of random games.

Okay, this game looks great, and supposedly its possible to get through the game without firing a single bullet, just doing melee, which is awesome. However, the acrobatics look like sex, however if they make it super simple and like, one button combat, i feel it will get boring real fast, kinda like assassin's creed, which i like because it was short and sweet. Now, there is a lot of room for failure in this game, but i remain foolishly hopeful, as well as open to the idea of online play being excellent. That's all I have to say right now.

I thought it looked pretty epic when I saw it. I would imagine that there's a jump button, punch, and kick, and that's about it. Oh, and the trigger for guns, but a real player doesn't need guns anyways. The multiplayer seems like it could be pretty awesome, if it's done well.

I hope for something more in depth, but if it isn't ill probably still enjoy it.

Oh. My. God. This looks amazing.
I may be slightly biased because it reminds me of Breakdown, but I really want this game.

I heard about that, wasn't that kinda like this, but totally awesome where you've got complete controll over the storyline, and its all wierd and stuff, and if your not looking in the right place you miss stuff.

You don't really have control over the story. At least I don't think. But its awesome. Its all in first person and you can do all of these hand to hand fighting moves and there are also guns which you really need at the beginning and it starts out like a really challenging first person shooter, but then you start getting awesome and it turns into a first person beat-the-hell-out-of-everything.

Go buy it, you'll enjoy it.

I just realized how very pimp boss battles could be in this game.
