Following from the Witcher post. I downloaded and tried this demo. Not bad and has some fun elements. Certainly the gunnery element is good, and I like some of the features and graphics.
Has anyone tried this and played it through?
Finally, would it be suitable for regular lan sessions.

Tried it, liked it on a small level, brought it, but ultimately had no lasting appeal and would probably never play it again.

I think about 6 of us had it and played for about 1 or 2 weeks then the hack and slash element wore thin pretty quickly. Its very much a future Diablo 2 but without the longevity and appeal.
Nice looking game with loads of weapons and upgrades, but ultimately unfulfilling.
You can go through the entire game alone because the instances are made harder depending on how many people are in your group.
Doubt it would be a worthwhile Lan game either.

Agree. i got to level 38 (i think) on it put it down to go have dinner and never played it since.
might give it a look for a 5min blast sometime in the future but no great rush.
However, I disagree that it left no impact on me.......i cannot help looking over my shoulder when i walk around Covent Garden for fear of those dog like creatues leaping out at me :/
Shame really as the game had real potential

No we got into beta as a guild apparently but thats the last we heard. I spoke to Gawan last week and he has played the beta and said it was basically the same as WoW, so he didnt really like it.

Never tried Hellgate, but during development it looked promising. After watching my mate play it a bit, huuuuuuge disappointment.

What people think of the beta is irelevant.
I hated WoW in beta. With a passion.

If they like it, it stays the same, if they don't, they change it. A BETA could end up EXACTLY the same as the finished product.. And in *most* cases they are very VERY similar.
