Bourne footage looks awfully familiar

Ok... this is starting to bug the shit out of me. You have the ability to tag your blog entries... DO IT. You can't search by tag here anymore because everything is generally tagged with only a single tag: "News". It's annoying.

Haha yeah, it's filed under news. So if I search news I get 10k unrelated blog posts and there is no way of sorting more specificly.
Doesn't bug me though since I check pretty much everyday. In any case the game looks fun as a rental, reminds me of Stranglehold a bit.

Those aren't actually tags. News is the file it's under but every story is tagged (quite a lot actually) at the bottom.
See at the bottom of this story it says "bourne-conspiracy, high-moon, sierra, the-bourne-conspiracy"?
Those are the tags. So, if you were in google and searched any of those listings (the hyphens act as spaces so no worry about typing those) you're more likely to stumble on X3F.
Inside our system it's even easier. If you wanted to learn about Bourne Conspiracy you can type "Bourne Conspiracy" in the search box at the top right corner of every page on the site and it will list all the stories where that tag is placed. From there you can organize by relevance, which works well most of the time based on what you type, or by date.
Hope that clears the confusion.

Since nobody has said it already....
MATT DAYMUN!!!
Okay, just had to get that off my chest. Now, which cover-system game are you implying it is imitating? Because there are several...GOW, R6:V, R6:V2, Army of 2, Kane&Lynch, Dark Sector, et al... I think the music sounds most like GOW, though. If only it used a shakey combat cam during the run.

There is a HUD in the game. I played a demo of this at Play.com Live here in the UK and there's a HUD for health and ammo and a bar for when you can do the special moves.

Looks like Stranglehold without the sliding. That's not a bad thing, just sayin'.

" There is no ammo gauge, no aiming reticle, no life meter, nothing. Whether this is indicative of the actual game or an example of developers removing the UI for the sake of a trailer, we'll have to wait and see..." Um, WTF? Since when do they NOT remove these things? Every single promotional trailer and screenshot released for a game are removed of those things, why the hell are you speculating abotu stupid crao like this now? I mean seriosuly, this is just the dumbest thing, it's like going "Well, the trailer is only 3 minutes long. is this an indication of thhe games length, or just shortened to give a small example of the game, we'll have to wait and see"... ...It's just so dumb!

Trailer hardly inspires me, although the fact there's aspects of parkour (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parkour) is cool, although it seemed to be in a cut scene, so maybe not something you can control.
Other than that it doesn't really make me want to buy it.

I hope there's a move where you stab a guy in the hand with a pen.

I also played the game demo at Play.Com Live in the UK! It wasnt that bad to be honest. It was quite a long demo with three parts with the ending being a chase scene in a Mini!!!!
