    I haven't seen much traffic on it anymore & I'm starting to see the price drop unfold (around $48.00 used).  I'm wondering if anyone is still playing this game or if it has already been consumed & everyone that was even remotely interested in it has moved on to greener pastures.

    I'm sure there is a small community of competitive time trial players, but I can't see the majority of people playing the game for any extended period of time.

    I'm going to take the logical approach and rent it this friday.

    Why anyone would buy it KNOWING it's as short as it is confuses me.

    I'm hitting up the last five speedruns I need for 1000/1000, and also working on finishing up a guide, so yeah, I'm still playing it.

    Exactly. I'm currently waiting for Blockbuster to get it's copy back in, I will happily pay the 7-8$ it costs for a rental, but $60 for a game I'll play once? Please.

    Because it's unique and enjoyable.
    I've played through it twice already.
    It's well worth owning.

    I'm still playing it. I'm trophy hunting. Right now I'm doing the speedruns. They're tricky.

    Dude your guide is amazing. I'm so totally going to use it to finish all the time trials and stuff.

    If you bother with the time trials this game can potentially last ages because some of them are fucking hard!

    I am having a break from it for a couple of days but ive been playing it alot, i've beaten the game twice. Once on Normal and Once on hard.

    I plan on beating it again to get the "Test of Faith" trophey then doing some speed run's. I probably should have attempted to get that trophy on my first play through instead of trying to do it when i was beating the game on hard. I got up to about Chapter 8 i think and got fed up and started capping dudes. I'll do a quick play through on easy for the "test of faith" trophy.
    Despite the flaw's this game may have i still love it to death and think the core gameplay is cool as hell.

    I bought, I should be receiving in the mail next week. I knew it was short, but it feels like it's worth owning. I'll probably come back to it from time to time. So, yeah, I'll be playing it. And with christmas coming I guess there'll be lots of people playing it.

    They game is short, but the time trials are amazingly fun to do. It reminds me of Geometry Wars addiction. When you mess up, you know it's your fault, but you keep trying again anyways, and STILL enjoy it. I like watching the crazy ghosts people have and learn their techniques. That's my favorite part of the game, trying to replicate their crazy moves.

    Rented it from Gamefly, just finished it yesterday.

    It was, in fact, too short for my liking- although the combat tended to be fucking annoying, enough so that I gave up trying to beat the game without a gun, once I had gotten used to the environmental puzzles the game throws at you and how to maneuver everything well, the actual running parts were superb.  

    If they were to release DLC levels of the game in the future, I would probably actually purchase it.  As it stands, though, I've finished it.

    I really think they could clean up the game to improve the pacing, and that a sequel could really end up being something special.  But, for now, I'm done.

    I would be willing to buy it at a lower price, 60 is just too much for me. I loved the demo though, so I might rent it.

    I still will pick up the game and play it from time to time. Half of it is I love the game and the other half is that it's the only FPP out there and the infant subgenre has grown on me.
