Eldorado Posted February 3, 2005 Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 I'm downloading it right now. Hopefully I won't find the controls as irksome as the Xbox demo. Sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tranquility Posted February 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 It was nice. I personally enjoyed playing it. There's also an intuitive squad control, and your squad can revive you if you "die" or are incapacitated assuming they're not also dead. You can revive them if they fall as well, or you can order them to continue the battle until it's safer for them to revive you. It's built on the Unreal engine so it looks good and runs smoothly enough with occasional stuttering on my 9700 Pro. Looking forward to it though.

Derrik Draven Posted February 6, 2005 Report Share Posted February 6, 2005 Is this the same demo released for the Xbox? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Monkey Posted February 6, 2005 Report Share Posted February 6, 2005 Is this the same demo released for the Xbox? No, it's different. You ride an elevator down to the floor of the wookie planet and fight some slavers. I played for about 10 minutes, but then I bent my wookie.
