I dunno, I saw a preview on TV the other day and it looked pretty good to me. And I'm not even a gamer.

Ferrit, you voiced my thought exactly.

A few of my friends bought this game, they said they expected it to be better than it was, so... :P

I have a buddy who bought it for XBox 360. BAD graphics, jerky frame rates; he also describes it as boring, but I couldn't stand to watch it long enough to play much.

On the other hand, it did inspire me to go to GOG.com and spend six bucks for Duke Nukem 3D. Came in it's own DOSBox wrapper certified to run on my Win7 64 Pro machine.

Plays well on my system. It certainly doesn't have the feel of the older versions.
Not jerky or glitch y so far. I will tell ya more as i progress.
Definitely not to be played with children around.

Supposedly, the PC version plays much better than the console ports, but I've only tried it briefly on the 360. That's OK, Duke 3D plays fine, and I might even buy Manhattan project.

For six bucks, how badly can I be disappointed?

Or how badly you want to be disappointed. Face it there are people who look forward to a bad experience.

Shucks, I guess I can cut my beer budget in half for one day if I need to.

Well, since I'm here, I have to ask if you've got an update on the game. I don't think I'm likely to buy it, but I'm curious. Heck, I haven't even had time for a Witcher 2 or Rift fix in two weeks!
