Played the demo at my friend's place for a few horus tonight and had a lot of fun. I really liked getting the shopping cart and running through a giant crowd. Near the end I just wanted to move on to other things in the game, but I couldn't because it was a goddamn demo. This makes me wish I had enough scratch to get a 360, but alas...
I had no idea about the whole photography aspect, it seems interesting. I can't wait to here what you guys think of this (it's out today isn't it?). I am seriously considering getting a 360 for this game...

Today's the ship date, tomorrow is the in-store. Unless you're a CA bastard who gets stuff earlier, of course.

Good stuff, and I have no doubt that the full game offer a whole lot more.
I read the EGM review, the structure of the game sounds pretty weird. There's only one save spot and they say you'll probably end up restarting a few times because if you don't get to an area your supposed to in time for the story, you'll miss big sections. It's all about going through the game multiple times to see and understand everything.
Yeah, I'm getting it from Fry's too. Everywhere else is selling it at $60.Quote:

I'd like to look forward to this game, but it sounds like it has short-term appeal. I think it's also getting lots of extra attention because the 360 is so desperate for games. Hell, the summer is a dry spell for games, period.
I got mine today. I didn't get to play much as I played it on my lunch break.
I can imagine that you'll be able to pick it up today as well...
