My thoughts:

Go PLAY THE DEMO, NOW! The game is going to be f*ckin' awesome in every way possible. If Gears of War 2 and Vanquish had a baby, this GAME would be IT, in first person mode. The action and gameplay creativity is fantastic. EPIC kills and weapons. The tutorial was one of the best and the funniest that I have witnessed in a long long time. Can't wait for this game to come out. I'll have to try out more creative moves to try out on my re-run of the demo.

People can fly - the same developers behind Painkiller.

One of the early previews - Bulletstorm Preview | bit-gamer.net

Our favourite skill shot that we’ve seen, by way of example, is the Mercy Shot. That involves shooting a humanoid foe in the unmentionables, which leaves him clutching and hobbling in pain, then calmly finishing him off with a round to his head.

:rofl:

Played the demo yesterday was good, environments were quite similar to Enslaved the only fear for me is that the game might tend to get repetitive
 
Re: The Official 'BulletStorm' Thread! [PS3] [X360] [PC]

About time this game got a thread. The concept reminds me of borderlands, but what the heck, this game looks good.
 
Re: The Official 'BulletStorm' Thread! [PS3] [X360] [PC]

Looked closely at the thread and found that the game is also out on PC which is a great news
 
Re: The Official 'BulletStorm' Thread! [PS3] [X360] [PC]

Of course it is, which is where 'People Can Fly' come into picture. These guys were responsible for porting the first Gears of War to PC. It's a miracle that EPIC games even considered bringing it on the PC, but then again, the publisher is EA and most of EA games are multi-platform. The texture streaming issues was really horrible in the 360 demo, I hope same is not the case with PC.

It's EPIC games. We should feel fortunate that the game is even announced for the PC platform. :p

There is no PC demo on the cards for now. We'll just have to wait for the full game to release and then get some feedback. You can also look up for the high quality demo of the 360 version. This is definitely a must buy title for sure.
 
Re: The Official 'BulletStorm' Thread! [PS3] [X360] [PC]

^^

But is it not slated for a soon release..? You saying..it just might not come out for the PC, or they will not divulge till the last moment..?
 
Re: The Official 'BulletStorm' Thread! [PS3] [X360] [PC]

^Hardly a month for the release of the title Anil. Don't think a demo is in the works. :)

Wait wha... February 22nd? Killzone 3 releases the same day wOOt! :D
 
Re: The Official 'BulletStorm' Thread! [PS3] [X360] [PC]

Are you talking about the demo or the full game?

There is no "official" word on the PC demo, yet. Mark Rein had responded to one of the Twitter messages:

@Aldrikh @MarkRein what about the PC? <-I’m still pushing for one. There just wasn’t time to get one prior to launch.

So there might be some hope. Else you'll just have to hold out for the full game to come out, which is just a month away from it's release.
 
Re: The Official 'BulletStorm' Thread! [PS3] [X360] [PC]

Desecrator, Ethan.....errrm...sorry if I was not clear. Meant..is it possible it might not even come out on PC..? I thought Ethan was hinting at that...on #11.
 
Re: The Official 'BulletStorm' Thread! [PS3] [X360] [PC]

LOL! My apologies. I was being sarcastic towards EPIC. It's definitely coming out for the PC, hence, this thread. :p
 
Re: The Official 'BulletStorm' Thread! [PS3] [X360] [PC]

^Nope it is certainly coming for the PC. It is a simultaneous release across all the platforms on 22nd Feb. :)
 
Re: The Official 'BulletStorm' Thread! [PS3] [X360] [PC]

If anyone needs a direct link for the PS3 demo, let me know. :)
 
Re: The Official 'BulletStorm' Thread! [PS3] [X360] [PC]

Multiplatform releases and the 999 price tag for new games is why i love EA india <3
 
Re: The Official 'BulletStorm' Thread! [PS3] [X360] [PC]

Screenees look awesome. I wonder whether my lappy will be able to handle it on 1366 X 768.

Is demo coming on steam?
