Bulletstorm

This game looks like Borderlands minus the cartoony look plus some crack.

And now if you get the Epic Edition, you get access to the Gears 3 beta.

Preordered all the way. I was already going to buy it day one, but now with Gears 3 beta included...HELL MOTHER FUCKING YEAHHHH!

Great parody of the Halo commercial

Demo is next Tuesday.

It comes out the same day as Killzone 3, so good luck getting some play time, Bulletstorm.

Used my deal I got with Living Social and applied it to the pre-order of this. So I'll get in the Gears 3 beta, and release date delivery was only $0.99 for it.

I've had it preordered for awhile as well, partially for the game and partially for the Gears 3 beta. The game itself will be fun, and Gears 3 is looking like perhaps this generation's best multiplayer shooter experience, so it should be the complete package.

As long as there aren't a million glitches for 10-year olds to find.

I don't think there will be. They said they could've released it in March if they wanted to, but Microsoft wanted to wait, so this should be one hell of a polished beta. Not to mention if you get to top rank in the beta, it unlocks something for the final game.

Played the demo and it was basically what I expected. A kickass blast. The only mode in the demo is called Echoes which is basically a race through a map to score the most points and I think rack up a quick time too. This is a separate mode from online and campaign, and looks to be a good one to try to compare against your buddies with as you try to perfect your skill shots. I think this game is definitely going to be worth a buy for me as I figure Cliffy is going to put a pretty decent campaign into this.

Anyone play the demo yet?

Played the demo... it was alright but not my cup of tea. I'm not a leaderboard whore so replaying the same level over & over to improve my score doesn't really interest me so the replayability is small.

Well that's just one game mode, there is a campaign and online modes too. It's kinda like the addition to Horde mode in Gears 2. Something in between online and off.

Yeah, I realize that, but unless the campaign has a great story, I just don't see the $60 value in it, especially since the online mode is only co-op (which I can understand considering the gameplay style). I"ll eventually play it, but either when I decide to rent it or it drops way down.

I played it and was what I expected. I don't care if it sucked, it was a day one purchase because of the Gears 3 beta. But I thoroughly enjoyed it as I knew I would, so I'm definitely eagerly anticipating it.
On another note, I can only imagine how bad the control scheme is going to work
