In the same boat as Zips, waiting for the postman.

On the other hand I did get my Batman Tshirt today...:D...

The kicker? Still tied to Steam, meaning I can't play until the 14th.

I find it to be great fun, interaction is nice and I feel like a small child again. I like games that try to be over the top arcade like duke and serious sam, and I like games that really try to make things as realistic as possible.

I just hate games that cannot pick a color

Well, I'm convinced not to buy it, at least at anything close to regular price. Looks to me like a bad generic shooter with Duke's name on it... :(

Is that a Cooler Master Centurion 534?? IF it's, really nice case. I have that one too, and love it. Worth every cent
Damn, you're good. Yep, that's the case I have. Very nice case, it's lasted me quite some time now. Not sure she'll make it through to my next big hardware upgrade though.

It plays like a game from long ago with ok graphics.

The game saves seem a bit wonky, it feels like I've been tele-ported to the end of the last bit when re-loading the save-point, feels like I'm skipping through the level...Anyone ?

Good fun but no more than that.

Oh, I like how the initial loading screen appears on the desktop at start up, apart from that, nothing new.

I'm as far in as The Hive episode atm.

I'll check out MP later.

When did the whole "brown coloring" stuff start anyways? I can't even remember.

I think it started around this console generation. Now we finally had console power to give us stunning and "realistic" graphics and apparently in real life everything around us is a grey-brownish sludge.

1996 with the release of Quake :D

I definately think "brown" when i think Quake, yeah.

As for when the trend started, where every shooter had to be grey/brown, it was probably around 2005, you go any earlier than that and i remeber lots of colourful shooters, like UT2004 which was probably one of the last big ones, but past that.. not so much, it definately started to set in at that point.
