Just downloaded the the demo on Live last night. Couldn't put it down for nearly 3 hours (despite the demo mission being fairly short). Guess I'm a simpleton that really likes smashing and blowing stuff up, but I am definitely getting this one when it comes out. I thought I would hate the new 3rd person format (having loved it as a 1st person shooter), but I got over it quick once I started swinging that big sledgehammer at hostile soldiers. I haven't put my guns away this much for a shooter game since Escape From Butcher Bay.

The game world is supposed to be open like GTA and Saints Row....and is supposed to be fairly large from what I understand. I especially like how you're rewarded for destroying the enemy faction's property and assets. But nothing.......and I mean nothing.....compares to the fun that is to be had when you jump behind the controls of one of the game's 2 legged mining walkers.

Anyone else tried it yet?
