Wow, like the movie you say? That's gonna be fun. I'm sure it will look good too. I'll try it out tomorrow, I just let it download and left.

I thought it was great! Played on my 2 puters for about three hours. Kinda makes me feel old but still a lot of fun

Wow, I tried out the SP training and stuff, and it was real great, but when I go to play MP, the server is loading and stuff and then it just goes black, then to Windows. Don't know why...

Well try playing online then, on some games you try to join it just CTD's for no apparent reason, and sometimes comes up with an error report when it looks like its loading :S

If I don't, we will all jknow you just suck!

The graphics aren't outdated. It's true, the polygon counts on the levels aren't extremely high, but they do the job perfectly...Circuits and stuff are broken, you can see a freaky-looking sky and ground with cracks in it and glowing...Things everywhere.

The models looks really nice cause of the glow effects and environment maps (they give the illusion of real reflections)...And the "real" glow itself is very new...I don't remember seeing glow effects in any other games (even Star Wars games don't have real glows on the light sabers, just textures with transparencies)...Anyway, so they look really great and original and don't require a very fast video card.

I did notice that you can hit the...Platform thingies...And make I think nine of them fade out (you have to make the other team fall to their death...Or deletion

), but anyway, hitting people pushes them off also...Though everyone was getting pings of 200ms when I played, so real hits didn't happen too often.

Btw, when you fall and die, you get sent to the spectator's...Place...They're basically rooms from which you can watch the players who are still playing...Instead of spectating them like in most other FPS...You can actually walk around, but with no weapons...And you watch the fight through windows.

Anyway, I can't say it's a really great game that everyone will love, but it is original...And it's not a bad game at all...Though not everyone might like it as much. I'm still wondering how the SP game will be though...Since I'm guessing you won't just be in an arena like in the MP demo.

There is one part I really hate! Haveing to control the camera with the mouse while on the bikes! This annoys me. I would rather have the camera follow the bike as it turned rather than me having to move the mouse manually. It really sux turning a corner, not getting your mouse turned quick enough, and hit a wall!
