I got my key this morning, but haven't been inclined to download it yet. I may just give it to someone if they want it, since I wasn't too impressed by the E3 demo they showed during the G4TV coverage.

I'd like to get in on this. Too bad you have to be a paying subscriber.

I'll let you know in the next couple of days if I decide to use my beta key or not. Sounds like you'd rather play it more than me, so I'll probably hand it over to you if you want it.

Yes, please! I'd love to check this game out. The destruction physics look pretty impressive based on the videos I've watched. I also like that they have a third person option, I prefer it over first.

Signed up and got key. I'm away from my xbox for a while though so won't have time to play it quite yet.

I played a few matches last night. The multiplayer isn't too bad. Just not all that great either. Most of the matches I played were either domination or team deathmatch types. The domination had three outposts to capture and you had to destroy them and then repair them to capture the points.

The game tries to differentiate itself with the use of backpacks that can either make you run faster (fleetfoot), make you fly (jetpack), make you stronger (rhino), or give you more firepower (forget the name). The destructible buildings were there but I'm not sure how much of a difference they make. Saw someone try to topple a tower on to everyone but he got killed a couple of times in the process.

Hah, I forgot all about this. R Nilla, check your PM for the code. If you happened upon another code, then just give this one to somebody.

Played it a while. Pretty fun multiplayer game, definitely would add some replay to the whole thing after the single player. As it is (beta) it's not flushed out enough to take me away from all the other great multiplayer games out there but it's still pretty fun.
