I don’t understand why people think this game is so slow, when you’re sprinting with the predator or alien you’re movin really damn fast. Specially the alien that thing’s a rocket.
I’ve loving the demo so far it seems really balanced if you know how to play each class. I’ve been able to own an been owned by all three classes. Can’t say i have a favorite but the marine in particular is fun, specially when you block some alien or preds light attack, knock them on their ass with the rifle melee and proceed to feed them a face full of pulse ammo.
So awesome..can’t wait for this game.

To look at it from a simple perspective, this game is catered to fans of the first 2 games, and in that respect it seems they opted to change as little as possible from the feel of the game save for a few new mechanics (platform jump for predator, etc) and upgrading the graphics, so it was to be expected.

I do however think they made a mistake with the release of this particular demo in that the mode they show isn’t the best. Also, I did notice it took long to find a match as well and when u were in it lagged quite bit. All in all though, I had fun with it, again mostly coz I was a fan of the old games. I’ll most likely pick this up and I recommend it to anyone whos a fan of the series, otherwise I would recommend picking it up as a rental.

I spent 2x 20 minutes waiting for quick match to find me a match. So I didn’t get to play it at all.

Not impressed with the demo. They screwed it up by coming out with the 8 player shooting fest and the game has it’s f#$%# up.

Fist off the marines can’t jump or they are simple too dam stupid to figure how to climb on stuff too.
Second the alien is like a god dam snail. Really slow at movement. And can get killed easy.
Third is the predator. He has cameo and like what 3 weapons and of course has the heal injector. After 10+ years of this game and this is the best they can come out with?

Seriously I don’t think this is the same team that made the old one. I just hope the god dam campaign is better in the long run because the multi-player was not impressive at all. And this should be bought up in the gauntlet and let the guys talk over this one. I am sure one of them did play the old one.

Over all the demo sucks in 8 player. The graphics are all there nice work the sound could be better. The map was not impressive. The only thing that stood out was there was some graphic work done on it. And that about summons up the demo. Not worth downloading if you did not get it yet. Hope the end result will be better.

Not impressed at all with this demo, what a bummer. I waited the whole day with high hopes, but I just didn’t feel they were fulfilled in the least minimum.

Don’t get me wrong, the game feels good, but the demo being “Free For All” just killed it for me. It’s incredibly frustrating to try to learn a game on the get go when you can’t anything before someone just kills you from behind.
If anything, Rebellion should have released a demo with Team Death Match, I’m sure that would have helped a lot of people who are not that hard core into FPS’s.

The Demo isn’t crappy, nor the graphics, nor the gameplay, it’s just the Game Mode they decided to release it with.

On a side note, I didn’t know PSN had so many 14 year old kids with Blue tooth mics, gosh, those high pitched voices killed the experience even further. I wish there was an option to turn that stuff off as in the Lost Planet 2 Demo.

Well, as for now all I can say that the game has a lovely front end, I liked playing in the menus. Because apart from that the matchmaking on PS3 is still complete BS which doesn’t really group you with other people. No option to be the host doesn’t help either.
