I just got the chance to play, as i got a demo disc, and it's amazing. Criterion is becoming an amazing developer. After Burnout 3: Takedown and Burnout Revenge, they try themselves on the FPS genre. The game looks, sounds and plays great. Can't wait for the full game. If you played the demo (Xbox or PS2) post your opinions.

I'll let you know after the game ships, but i'm not terribly impressed by the gameplay. Graphics are cool.
Don't worry. I don't think they are crazy to the point to stop making a succesful franchise. I haven't played the first two, but Burnout 3:Takedown and Burnout Revenge are perfect examples on how to make a great arcade racing game. I play them everytime i can (even more than Gran Turismo).
I hear in this game, the WHOLE environment is destructible like in Mercenaries. Why break into a building when you can blow it up? Could be hype. I dont really care for modern era FPS games, though.
