Not really. Well. If you think that because it's an FPS it is then perhaps but it's more like an iD shooter shagged Bioshock and Fallout

Death balloons! Donkey Kong! Zip lines! Apart from the ultra shit music that was a very promising trailer and god are those environments beautiful. The stones in the beginning before he steps on that bridge, wow.
I think the graphical quality has been kinda weird. The characters are always super high quality, which looks a bit weird when at times the environment around them has horribly low-res textures (see the office of the guy in the subway, can't remer which vid that is).
I dunno if this is something about the tech, or just the 360 version or what. no horse blinders this time! i really hope they're an option in the settings somewhere.
and also, totally agree about the rocks at the start. if the whole game has attention to detail like that..... yikes! This is looking more and more mouth-wateringly awesome by the day.
They've kept the same old brutal and savage ID gunplay but added some subtle twists. I like. Exploding barrels. :) It wouldn't be an ID game without them (needs more crates though). Even the driving sections looks as though they're gonna be considerably less annoying than I had initially feared. Roll on October! i wonder how much the increased detail is the engine tech (mega textures, crazy awesome editing suite) and how much is the sheer amount of artists they must be throwing at this thing.
My money is on artists. ETQW also had megatextures but wasn't that detailed at all, simply because of a lack of assets and pretty lazy indoor level design.
but of course, more horsepower = can run more stuff at the same time, so the two feed off each other.
the only compaint I have with that vid is the damage feedback screen, I'm not a fan of tinting the screen red and then blurring everything.
That looks pretty fucking badass. My excitement is not diminishing at all.
Interesting to watch this one back to back with the City trailer (still the most impressive by far). The contrast in the enviroments, monsters, and gameplay style shows an impressive variety... Release day purchase for me I think. "only" 21gb :p. it's been downloading at a steady 1.6mb/s for an hour now, should be done in about 2 more.
Game 'DLC' or 'extras' or 'add-ons' which equate to adding a few extra guns to a game. Especially when it is at launch!
Just release the bloody game in it's entirety. Stop trying to milk everyone for so much coinage. And help irredicate l33ti$t scum, with their 'special' gaming. Bleh. Anarchy edition from steam, and commence downloading, when I get home.
Like I said. I was foolish enough to cancel my A.E preorder. Maybe they received so many requests that they're out of stock for now or something.
Yeah, the whole micro-DLC thing is pretty silly. breaks games. I've lost count of the times I've seen or heard people complain that the Deus Ex Preorder content horribly unbalanced the game because they started with a super powerful weapon and enough extra credits to buy two major augmentations.
So I think I'll save some pennies and play the game the way it was balanced to play. this looks amazing. but given my pc chokes on doom 3 at the moment it isn't going to get played any time soon
