Some guy is streaming Anarchy Mode
http://www.justin.tv/absoluda#/w/892603872/2

Looks so fun.

Edit: Streams over. Tomorrow is gonna be a good day. Can't wait for anarchy with friends

Looks like there is drop-in drop out co-op. Very nice. I really like the emphasis on teamwork and skill points. The economy system looks really rewarding as well.

I also really appreciate that Anarchy forces you to get creative with the score minimums. I didn't expect that.

Updated stream as the other guy has gone to bed.

The mode looks very interesting teamwork and communication are key it seems. No point in just shooting enemies as you'll just get low scores. Some of these guys need practice it seems as they are not very imaginative at the moment in how they are approaching killing enemies.

After watching the havoc in the stream, pre-ordered the PS3 version.

Did I do good, GAF?

The PS3 version of the demo looked like it had less sun-shafts...

If I buy this game (epic edition), am I guaranteed to get early access into the Gears 3 MP Beta? Or do I still have to look around the net for a beta key?

I'll add you. I suspect this won't be very busy on my friends list, so I should add some other people from this thread.

$10 DLC already announced :|

People Can Fly, Epic Games and EA also announced today the Gun Sonata pack, the first downloadable content for Bulletstorm. Featuring three new maps for Anarchy multiplayer mode, from the wretched Sewers of Stygia to the dilapidated ruins of Hotel Elysium and the open spaces of Villa, the Gun Sonata Anarchy maps provide even more settings for players to work together in order to pull off fantastic team skillshots. In addition to the new Anarchy maps, Gun Sonata will also introduce two new Echo mode maps, including Crash Site, where Final Echo soldiers must deal with the ramifications of their crashed ship, and Guns of Stygia, in which a captive commando escapes from an enemy prison. Completely new to the Bulletstorm experience, Crash Site and Guns of Stygia offer brand new challenges for those competing to top personal high scores and leaderboard rankings. Two new Leash enhancements, the Flamingo and the Pulp, make it even more enjoyable to kill with skill and style. The Gun Sonata downloadable content will be available this spring for 800 Microsoft Points on Xbox LIVE® Marketplace and $9.99 on the PlayStation Network.

Ugh. I haven't even recieved the game yet and already I feel like I'm receiving some kind of unfinished and inferior version. Good luck getting anyone to buy that with the slew of shooters due out in the next couple of months though.

Are there any differences between the 360 and ps 3 versions?

ps3 version missing the gears beta and some graphical effects, like sun rays coming through the holes on the roof

Other than that pretty similar

Rented it first to see what I think about the multiplayer. I know the campaign is going to be short so if the online stuff rings with me I might just buy it later. Did the same with Killzone 3. I just have a history of regretting FPS purchases but lately they've just been military shooters; Bulletstorm looks a lot more unique and vibrant.

Story-wise, narratively, in terms of bridging set pieces together and having huge cinematic moments; this game is completely fucking bonkers insane. I absolutely love it.

I don't know how much Rick Remender had to do with all of that directly but I'm going to go ahead and say "All Of It" and proclaim him officially the King Of All Media.

Now all we need is an Uncanny X-Force game.

I call Fantomex.

Wasn't it $20?

Anyway, I picked it up at GS. They have a promo where they take 5 bucks off Bulletstorm and put it towards Gears 3.

Alright, so the Gears 3 beta is gonna work just like Crackdown did. There's an option to access the beta from the main menu. So when the beta starts, you have to run it through Bulletstorm. So hold onto your copies folks. That shouldn't be a problem, since it's a good game :p

EDIT

I selected MP, and I'm already level 5. I guess Epic Edition people get an instant level boost. Huh.

Is there a review embargo on this game? Everything sounds good about it and I'll own it eventually, but I'd like to read some in-depth reviews.

Trying to decide whether to get this or Vanquish today. Might wait for a gamestop b2g1 to get both.

So what is the deal with Bulletstorm's economy? Are there weapons that you can unlock?
Click to expand...

You'll find new weapons by killing the enemies that wield them, then you'll pay to "unlock" them at a dropkit, which gives you the ability to upgrade their ammo capacity and eventually unlock and upgrade their charged shot. It also allows you to switch to whatever weapons you've found/unlocked at any dropkit (and there are a lot of dropkits in Bulletstorm, though it explains that pretty well).

And again, review embargo is up in an hour.

Both are packed full of dick and tits.. but Gears 3 beta is the big pull. Performance seems solid on both.

Great. I might go with the 360 just for the gears beta.

It's horde mode style with waves where you cooperate to generate high scores using kill shots.

Hoping this shows up in my mailbox from Gamefly today :)

Yeah I got the same thing. I went to the contact page on Amazon and sent an email asking what the deal was.

I love Amazon but I really wish there was an easy way to check your credits.

Ah, gotcha. Thanks. That's a pretty late embargo for them to have.
Click to expand...
Yeah, it's kind of weird that it would end at noon on the day of release. Wouldn't this delay people who were on the fence about getting the game day one? If they're confident in it, they probably should have had the embargo lift a day before the release date.

oh no no, the embargo hasn't changed ( for what I know ), I'm talking about being able to play the game...

Up until a minute or so ago d2d listed the games release to be feb 22nd, and now they just changed it to the 25th.
