Yeah, I picked up the 2nd last copy at my local Futureshop. The guy commented on how they'd been selling so many, but he had never heard of the game before. About to put it in as we speak.

I really did not think this game would sell out this fast.

Maybe nobody thought it would be so big so they didn't order a lot?

Im playing it now and enjoying it thoroughly.
Using a revolver, sniper rifle and a shotgun, as well as a fairly good shield that also heals me slowly.
The only real gripe I have so far is that your inventory is limited, and while you can do things to increase the amount of items you can hold, there is no real place to stash your items that you want to keep or save for later.

Well I've found so far that you pretty much find a better version of the gun you are using or shield pretty much fairly quickly. It's kind of annoying there isn't a storage place, but really I don't need all the fairly useless weapons and items once the clearly better version is found after blowing the brains out of some shit.

I'm really impressed with the game so far. The art style is beautiful, all the random stuff is just awesome too, and so many guns already, earlier I had 6 pistols that were all the same stats wise and the only difference was whether I wanted the pink pistol or the black pistol etc. I was like "Awesome"

Of course I chose pink pistol and sold the others.

Ya but when the better weapons come along and your not a high enough level to use them yet then you have to keep it around until you level up.
And the weapons and shield I use havnt been bested yet, which is surprising considering how long ive had them, but its mainly because of their abilities more than anything else. I might not have the strongest revolver but every shot has added explosive damage that will take most guys out with 2 shots.

I'm finding that this game reminds me a lot of what I thought a highly evolved PSO would have been like.

I'm actually impressed a bit with the class system and skill tree stuff. I just randomly woke up to play the game with my roommate and started a game as Roland. I quickly discovered the medic branch with him and it's bad ass. Healing based on a percentage of how much damage you can deal is an awesome idea. Sniper healing is sweet and so is shotgun heals. Lol.

I have yet to encounter a lilith player in online play.

Swan · 10-22-2009, 12:05 AM

Found today that this is sold out EVERYWHERE!

Friend of mine at EB is going to let me know when it is back in.

I was actually getting ready to ask if this game was anything like PSO.

It is looking so good to me right now...I think I might have to get it this weekend.

God, there are too many good games coming out in a short period of time!

Borderlands, L4D2, Assassin's Creed 2, new super mario bros wii, dragon age, mass effect 2...

Wow, I wasn't sure if Lilith would be very good for solo play, but holy damn is she great. Elemental damage boosts are great, and all the Phase modifications(healing, elemental damage, chance for Daze, etc.) make her pretty useful after all.

TheSlyMoogle · 10-28-2009, 04:56 AM

So I'm on my second playthrough of the game there are a lot of things that should be changed but I was overall impressed with the effort.

Fox 6 · 10-28-2009, 01:14 PM

i still cant find it haha

but it is a casual search.

Swan · 10-28-2009, 09:55 PM

Finally got this last night.

Played a bit with Combine. It's fun

BreakABone · 10-29-2009, 12:35 AM

I got today and was playing a bit with Swan and Combine.
So far a pretty cool game, though some weapons are useless.

I like sniper rifles. Even as a soldier I like to try and play the distance game. Sometimes it takes a lot of work and a lot of dying just rushing into things, and I'm a soldier too, which is weird.
