    Cool Demo Impressions?

    Sorry if I posted this in the wrong place. But oh man after playing this demo (5 times already ) I just want this game more than ever while playing through each time I just have the awesome feeling that this game makes a amazing fresh take on first person shooters that was needed. Sorry to the PC gamers this isn't to mock you or anything I'm disappointed for no PC demo since I'll be playing BioShock on my PC but I can assure this game is everything its cracked up to be (not like I had any doubts)

    How about everyone else who has played? Your impressions?

    Also I thought I would mention that no you cannot see your legs when you look down and the shiny items I never really was bothered by it then again when the game starts it asks to adjust the brightness so that might affect how the shine looks

    I'm going to check back at 4 to see if it's close to being done. I checked at 3 and it was 74% finished. As the hours roll on, hopefully the demo download will go by faster. :/ I'll give my impression then. But from what I've read, it sounds amazing.

    Love the demo. Thought playing the demo would hold me over till the game is released, but it has made me want to play the full game even more. The attention to detail is insane. The glowing eyes in the tube outside the bathroom was sweet, glad you dont have to make a choice about the little sisters yet

    The eyes in the tube was sheer brilliance. Whoever made the final call on that deserves a cookie!

    If you're stuck in an Underwater City full of drug addicts who have the ability to throw this ☺☺☺☺ at you, you might be self encouraged to throw it right back don't you think?

    That part did strike me like a wrench to the Cranium. The scale of this game is incontrovertable.

    yes but you wouldnt know thats what it did really, you have atlas saying that these drugs destroyed the civilazation so you stick it you arm. They should at least have atlas say "thats a plasmid giive it a try"

    Actually you CHOOSE to use the Plasmids. You press A to pick it up which is YOUR action. You can open the door without Electro Bolt if you want when the switch is still operable.

    makes sense because you see that these mutated humans are strong, you don't want to die so you alter your body to survive.

    he's not an idiot for falling off the balcony, he fainted, obviously.

    Yep, when you enter the room for the very first time the switch on the door isn't damaged, or at least I think it wasn't It APPEARED to be ok

    Are you saying you'd be able to keep your footing if your entire Genetic hold suddenly began to rewrite and Electricity started coursing threw your veins?

    Who are you, Zeus?

    Well, still it was your choice to pick it up, "Press A", it introduces the Plasmids, deal with it.

    well it's probly very painful and he was focusing on the pain more so than what he was doing hence why that happened I mean like rearranging your genetic code thats not a small thing

    I think that the the problem was that it was direcly behind him. He just walked backwards and spun. It seems logical to me.

    Exactly, he was dizzy and he couldn't control where he was going. If anyone has ever seen someone so drunk they can't walk up stairs, they know that what happened in the cutscene wasn't a matter of, "Oh, hey look! There's a balcony, I'm going to see what's on the other side!"

    He might have been trying to steady himself on the rail, and had to much momentum?
