Good thing I got that PS3 after all.:)

Yeah, it's sounding really good. 4 player co-op was great in Halo and should be brilliant here as well.

A console answer to "Crysis" anyone? Looks like that game in it's user-interface, and the character looks like the beta-suit guy in "Timeshift". Looks interesting, especially the MP co-op (as "Conflict: Denied Ops" is such rubbish). But PS3 only...interesting move(?) The divide between the 360 and PS3 is growing with new releases.

It's PS3 exclusive so I doubt you'll see it on the PC. As for the console divide, well, it's 'only' another shooter. It might be a great shooter, but it's nothing really to separate the PS3's library from its competitors.

"only another shooter"?!! Dude! This game is made by Free Radical! These guys (and gals) made two of the best shooters in history! GoldenEye and Perfect Dark. But then they split up during the making of the original Perfect Dark. I call Free Radical the better half of Rare.

Yeah sure, but what I'm saying is, is that it's not a radically different 'type of game' or 'genre' that radically improves the PS3's gaming library.

It might well be a brilliant game, but then again, so is Halo and many people liked Resistance. So it will have to be something revolutionary to actually sell Sony any more consoles.

"Timeshift" anyone....
By Mike Bowden (SI Member) on Mar 09, 2008

I personally didn't rate that game. The aiming system was far too sensitive and didn't have autolock-on. After playing Halo it seemed really primitive.
