"What cuts it short of true greatness is that it's almost a bit TOO experimental"  Interesting quote.  Here is the link:

Nice review.  They definitely loved the game, and the fact that they think it's a bit "too experimental" just makes me want it even more.  It sounds like they really just let you loose into this game with pretty much no restrictions & let you have at it.  I can dig that.  Glad I reserved this game, (And the HAlo3 beta doesn't hurt).

I preordered as well, as soon as I heard it was a new IP from developer Dave Jones.

I kind of understand what the reviewer means when he says that he yearned for a bit more structure. Some games tell you your objective one time then leave the rest to you, including remembering what the hell you were trying to do (Morrowind for instance). But from what I've played of the demo there is enough structure for me. As long as I can play the game without having to write down my objectives on my own, I'll be fine. The map and dossier integrated within the game give all the direction I needed (at least in the demo). I also love the vertical free-roaming aspect of this game it's so fun. From playing the demo, I'll have to admit that the driving or the racing portions of the game didn't really interest me, but I don't think that should take points away from it, since it's just an option for those who do enjoy those aspects. Anyway, I'm definitely looking forward to this title.

I've played this demo non-stop. I figured out how to get the SUV to climb walls today. That's the best. Beating the crap out of your buddy in co-op is a blast as well.

I need more reviews, I will buy this if IGN and Gspot gives this a nice score, just for the HIalo 3 beta though.

I heard the SUV can climb walls just haven't figured it out yet and I am really looking forward to unlocking some achievements with the SUV, like the barrel roll and the triple 360 degree flip achievements.
