How good is this game? I heard you can do shit like blow chunks out of all the walls and slow down the game just like how its done in 3Dmark2001. that sounds pretty cool, is it true?

Best single-player game I've played since Half-Life. The film noir storyline (and accompanying cutscenes/graphic novel) are very well done. Some might say overdone, but isn't that what film noir is all about?

The graphics are pretty amazing. When your character runs, his leather coat will flap and tug in just the right ways behind him. The matrix-style slow-motion dives and such really do make you feel like you're reliving the "lobby scene"--complete with coming out from behind a pillar in slow motion and capping guys and seeing wall and floor tiles crack and pop when you miss.

In fact, I think I'm going to go play some more right now.

I don't think they should have made it multiplayer, actually. Theres too much to appreciate about it in single player that can't be replicated in a multiplayer game (Bullet time, for instance). As a single player game though, it's got all the essential elements. Graphics, story, humor, and gameplay.
I also liked the thinly disguised joke in the game about, hmm, a certain monopolizing software company. did anyone else catch it?

Plus, there's no way to implement Bullet Time in multiplayer. It just didn't work, no matter how GOD tried.

At least they got 1P right.

A bunch of friends and I played it...
It's worth trying, but I wouldn't buy it...
The coolest part is leaping during slow motion and yelling "noooo" really slowly...
The entire game is a good idea, but it needs to be further refined...like a bunch of other games...
(besides, wtf is 3drealsm doing releasing games other than DNF?)

EDIT: A few grammatical errors...
