So, anyone tried it yet ? I'm not a big fan of first person shooters, but this was very good. Effects, sounds and graphics are outstanding, controls are great even on console and it has some nifty stuff like radio stations in vehicles. Singleplayer mission was fun, but the MP part is really a blast. Try it !

ok. I can't see myself playing this (console FPS doesn't do it for me) but WTF. It's free.

I can't see myself playing FPS games that much, except I bought TF2 last night and it was superawesomefun and while raiding PSN for new demos and tried it. It's fun, even on console.

I've been playing the demo the last couple days and I've been enjoying it. The infantry combat doesn't feel as tight or accurate as CoD4, but that's to be expected. Of course the tradeoff is the vehicles. Graphics and sound are nice, blowing the environment up is pretty satisfying. Not quite sold on purchasing the game, but considering it.

CoD4 on Xbox Live is pretty fun, Frontlines is pretty decent, I've been trying out the demo for Battlefield, and it looks pretty decent.  I know a lot of people rag on counsels, but I have more people I know playing Xbox 360 and PS3 together than on the computer.

I'm suprised Microsoft hasn't made it so that all games can use a keyboard/mouse, connect and surf the internet, and get World of Warcraft onboard, then you Microsoft would be wearing even bigger money hats...

Microsoft's console money hat isn't all that big actually. In fact, I wouldn't even call it a hat.

So it's more like a codpiece?

Console only game unfortunately. I played the demo some more after I wrote this and found out its worth a purchase, but on one term. Keyboard and mouse support.

Really liking it...long-range sniper hit-detection needs some work, but seems like a lot of fun.

Also, I am so damn use to cover mechanics, it was a bit tough to go back to pure positional and crouching.

Not according to the amount of players in the demo playing matches.

I was, yeah. I might check the game out if someone wants to play a bit on XBL. I have more fun than I should with the JDAM laser painter.
