Awesome

Am I the one who's not really feeling this? I mean, I'd love for this to be great, but I'm not very optimistic...

Looks kinda generic, and you can bet those awesome fights are just going to be timed events (can we PLEASE finally let go of this terrible device)?

I think the game will turn out great. It looks like its really gonna capture the feel of the Bourne Identity which is one of my all time fav movies and i also cant wait to check out the events leading up to it. The only thing im worried about is the flow of the game, i just hope they can re-tell the tale of the Bourne Identity.

As for the fights, there will be timed events with them, but the majority of em are real-time. But as for timed events, iv always loved them, especially during cutscenes(ie Resident Evil 4 and Shenmue). So hopefully, no, well never let go of timed events.

Badass.

 

[The FallenAngel]

That thing you can do in the first video is insane. Where you shoot the tank under the helicopter. Awesome!

This game really needs to be out now.

You know what would have been great with this game?

If they didn't resort to giving him an Ak-47 and fighting off tanks and helicopters, and instead made a game entirely based on really well executed hand to hand combat, and stealth.

Yeah, that tank really looked out of place, but I have to admit the hand to hand is looking better than I expected.

Demo is up, on Xbox Live. It's available in Australia, New Zealand, India and North America. The European demo will be released next week.

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Im downloading it right now, cant wait to play this one.

 

[Sebastos]

I'll probably download it.

Just played it and it truly does feel like the movies, i mean the fight sequences are spot on. The hand to hand combat is pretty good, although it felt like i was just doin the same three moves over and over again, but maybe i just dont know the right combos or maybe u unluck more throughout the full game. The take downs look brutal tho, really nice. The evade parts of the demo were really fun and faced paced, just like the film The shooting is pretty solid, but the hand to hand is where its at. The driving sequence was just too easy and felt to arcadey. Im not crazy about the guy who is playing Bournes voice tho, but then again im so used to Matt Damon as Bourne that getting used to a new Bourne could take some time. As long as there are more hand to hand combos in the full game, then this is a deff buy for me. Its a really faced paced game and i think itll be pretty fun.


*edit*

I just figured out how to do combos. Damn the hand to hand is fun!

Just played it...wasn't great. I mean it was fun to do all of those moves but I kept on dying and the quick cinematics were out of place and I never knew what to do..Might play it tomorrow to get another feel for it..

You just gotta learn to play it better. The cinematics were placed perfectly and looked fantastic. Its an extremely fast paced game, there isnt a large error margin. Iv played the demo over 15 times and for the most part i think its really good. However i think the driving portion of the game is just bad, but thats overshadowed by the fantastic hand to hand combat and solid gunplay.

I haven't played the entire demo yet, but so far (escaping the bus depot) I am disappointed. This game feels very ridged and oh rails. It doesn't seem to give you much freedom or room for mistakes. I was hoping this would be somewhat like a cross between uncharted and MGS with some deep hand to hand combat...so far i haven't seen any of that.

It is very fast paced and does have the feeling of the movie, but still way too ridged. I was also caught off gaurd by how poor the graphics were compared to the screen shots...jaggies, lots of-em.

I'll finish the rest of the demo and await reviews but so far I am unimpressed

 

[D4rkShaDoWz]

I played it again and it got a lot better! The only thing I hate is the cinematics are so fast that you barely have time to press the button so I press the wrong one...And the driving is horrendous after playing GTA..

 

[Spider-X]

I just found it to be more of a chore to play than it being "pick up and play" fun...you have to learn and work on your reaction time to get good and that just seems more like homework then playing a really quality and fun game.

I dont think the game should just be a "pick up and play" game. I think most games should be the opposite of 'pick up and play' actually. I see this as a more niche game. You really have to love the Bourne films as this game is almost like a movie, with all the cutscenes and quick time events. I dont think the game will be great or knock down any barriers, but i think itll do what it set out to do, which is give u a true Jason Bourne experience.

I actually thought the cinematics were too slow, it was almost too easy. And the driving is just bad, not even compared to GTA, they are just bad, luckily well only be driving for a very small portion of the game.

I was surprised at how much it felt like the movies, altho i really dont like the look or sound of the Bourne thats in the game. I guess i liked Matt Damon's performance too much.

Picked this up today. Lovin' it.
