    Very disapointed with how it looked. However, on ign they have a link to a few vids of them playing online and said it looks alot better. There's no article with it so I don't know if they mean it looks better than the demo or what? Looks a bit cack at the moment though.

    you guys playing it on HDTVs or on monitors with VGA cables yeah, I was really hoping this game would be good. The videos look very good every where online

    played it on a HD tv and thought it would have looked better but game play wise it is fast , smooth and very enjoyable .

    even though i have it for the pc i will still pick it up for the 360 when it comes out.

    In agreement about the game whats the fuss about it's alright but I don't get the hype, maybe it's just me

    As for that e-mail from EA I've only just gotten off there F****** spam list and now I'm back on it again! Also no where on the e-mail is there an option to unsubscribe and replying to the e-mail got me a message to contact support cause there support processes have changed? :mad: What the hell is that all about?

    Its **** like this which is why I dont buy EA games on principle! The main thing I hate about 'em is the way they release half arsed updates of the same ****e, year in, year out....... €€€

    I even half like burnout (in a boring-eye-bleeding monotonous way) but they are as the man says "Corporate Rock Whores", I did like the Desert Strike series though, back in the day!

    I like the principle, if it wasn't for the NFS and Burnout Franchises I'd be right there with you. :rolleyes:

    Downloaded the demo today, but it won't connect to the EA servers, keeps crapping out on the 'verifying' connection part:(

    Changed my mind. Got the full version and while it doesn't look any better, it's alot of fun online. The level "backstab" seems to be very popular and it's got a few nice visual tricks.

    Had a quick game of it yesterday, and quit after about 10 minutes and went back to GRAW.
    Couldnt for the life of me see what all the fuss was about.
    I think in the 10 minutes I played I saw 2 enemies, despite there seeming to be a fair few playing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 218 ✭✭Screaming Monkey


    downloaded it the other day...still not able to connect keeps failing to connect to the EA server. Maybe EA should spend less time sending me big brother type spam mails and get the thing working first


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,370 ✭✭✭Timans


    If you join a friend who's playing it, you can get in. ;)

    That's the only way I could get it, ridiculous.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,393 ✭✭✭✭Vegeta


    on the PC this is a class game on the 360 it is rough to say the least, didn't enjoy it at all

    Am I the only one who thought this game was really poor just from the demo?

    I thought the demo rocked, but I'm a fiend for the PC version so my view is certainly biased.

    I wouldn't say really poor but nothing in the demo has drawn me back to it again, so I won't be bleating with the herd on this one :D
