Honest to God,

I would be thankful for a few serious delays. This fall lineup is denting my wallet with all the games, and not enough time to play them.

Crap! I was really looking forward to this.

I was trying to finish BioShock before this came out on Tuesday. Now I guess I should slow my roll a little. Or else just finish BS and try and take on the rest of Shadow's Colossi in the meantime...

I played the demo of this and was not impressed at all. Or was it just me? It uses the Unreal 3 engine but looks very last gen. On the good side ill save $$ to buy another game coming in soon in this busy release linup for the 360 =)

I'm absolutely shocked. Well, not that Stranglehold got delayed but that the working day is almost over on the East coast and Two Worlds still hasnt been pushed back AGAIN.

I didn't think it was all that either. I'll probably snag it off eBay in a few months for $15.

I don't know, looks fun to me. Kind of bummed, but I have games that I've never even opened... Just too many for me to play! This is good though, Rapture needs to be fully explored.

I enjoyed the demo, much to my own surprise.

I was just annoyed by the fact that every time I tried to pick up ammo, or navigate through a room, or just take a look around I ended up hip-sliding across a countertop or food stand, etc. That action is WAY too sensitive.

I'll pick this game up, but I'm going to be waiting for a bargain so the delay doesn't bother me.

whatever.

Its too much of a Max Payne clone. It's too gimmicky and repetitive. Just like Payne, its all based around bullet-time. Go into a room, dive and activate your special power, shoot people and objects, repeat in the next room.

Yeah, I wasn't a fan of the demo either. Here's hoping that GameFly/Blockbuster rentals can change my opinion.

Now GTA4 being delayed - a definite day one purchase - that hurt. Strangehold ... not so much.

I thought the demo sucked, hardcore (or hard-boiled, or whatever). I was a little surprised given how much attention the game seems to be garnering.

It felt like a clunky Max Payne; and imitating a game many years old and not really doing much new with it is lame. Bullet time was great then; not so much now.

I enjoyed the demo, but i have to agree that the game was a bit repetitive. however the reason i am excited about the release is because of the multiplayer. you will have bullet time and slow-motion dives as you shoot-up up to 8 of your friends? sounds beast to me.
