Someone should beat the times I have up there now. :3

I believe I crushed your time on Edge last night. In other news, I FINALLY beat Chapter 3 speed run. I must have attempted it over 100 times...you HAVE to restart when you make a big enough mistake. That said, it's amazing as you pick up little tricks and your technique improves. Suddenly, you're dropping 20 or 30 seconds from what you previously thought was the best you could do. Great game.

If you loved Stuntman -- the original Stuntman -- this game is for you.

(I happily include myself in that category.)

Does that mean if you fuck up in this game you have to sit through five minutes of loading to retry?

Not quite but there are some areas where you have to watch unskippable cinemas if you die.

I thought of an awesome multiplayer idea: Team Relay Races. Could be one or multiple phases. For multiphase after you make a pass off, you need to run to your next start point to take the baton/package again. It could be designed so that each player is constantly moving for 10 minutes, maybe a 30 second wait to get the next transfer. Transfer strategies, team rankings and times like track and field.

No frustratingly long load times but the time trials/speed runs make you want to murder puppy dogs if you mess up in the slightest.

Yeah well I honestly don't know what he likes. Hes amusing to watch, but hes one of those guys that thinks everything sucks. All of the little things that he complains about are easily gotten over through practice. Hes a reviewer. Possibly the reason why he didn't like it was that he spent about three hours on it. Ironically its short story mode was one of the things he actually liked about it.

It's his shtick. Take a much talked about game and rail on every little thing people complain about it.
