Now this game is a beauty. Derivative of Half Life 2, FEAR and even a bit of no one Lives Forever 2 in there. Some stunning textures and with the patch applied, I'm getting 70-100 fps on 1920 res with all maxxed out. Admittedly, that's on an 8800GTX but I've got an old Nforce4 MB and an AMD 64 4000+ processor and only 2 GB of ram.
Nice AI and well balanced difficulty with the time powers you have at your disposal. Don't buy that piece of crap, Jericho. Remind yourself that gaming is fun and buy this. It'll tide you over until we get 'that other game with a suit'.
 
Yeah - I agree with you

Played the demo and really enjoyed it and probably going to buy the full game this month

It really is vastly improved over the old demo released about a year ago
 
Out of interest what have reviews been like for this, I could have sworn I read somewhere on here saying one particular source only gave it a 6/10 :confused:
 
Eurogamer gave it 6/10 I recall.

Personally found the demo pretty unexciting / ugly but some people seem to like it a lot... :)
 
Played it on 360 and it was a blast! I'll have to see what it runs like on older PCs :p
 
Just checked and IGN only gave it a 7.5/10

Seems there's not a lot of love around for it.
 
Yep

There's a few threads about it on the forums


Edit: Link removed as it was to the older (and inferior) demo. Please use the link in the next post

The above Demo is the old crappy cartoon one, least link in now removed and informs you of new Demo.

From my previous posts:

Quoted :

" Do not confuse with older version of game if you grabbed a Demo months ago (Grab last months Demo), as it was took over by another DEV and totally remade and its great."

Is it? Sorry :o

I just found that with a quick search! I have played both and I agree with the post above - the newer version is far better!

I'll remove the link from my post not to confuse things - thanks for pointing that out :)
 
This game deserves to do very well. I'm trying to raise it's profile a little so they make a sequel. It's the best fun I've had with an FPS in a long time.
And the graphics are stunning. Ugly in places yes, just like real life. A ruined building is not going to look pretty is it?
Everything about this game is pretty spot on. The physics, graphics, AI, the weapons and the variation of locations. I enjoyed this game AT LEAST as much as Half Life 2 when that first came out.
 
Just spent the last couple of hours playing this & I agree top game. Run sweet on my system with everything maxed. Cant see why it didn't do better in reviews.
 
OMFG I just played the demo again and realised that you can actually reverse time whenever you fancy it (when I played it the first time I thought it was just set pieces for reversing time) and I am absolutely gobsmacked. :o
 
Just got Timeshift, really enjoying it.

Love activating slow-mo and then blasting someone in the face with a shotgun from inches away. :eek:
 
Just been playing this and I have too say I'm not sure why it's got such mediocre reviews, I'm finding it really good. Looks good too! :)
 
Anyone seen the review on BitTech. He really doesn't like it :p

I'll be getting the full game eventually if it is as fun as the demo was. Its a good looking game, with some fun moments due to the time controls. Stealing the enemys guns is great :D
