This has been my first blog in a while but I haven't really had anything to write about in a while but today I played The new 007 game demo today on my pc and since there hasn't been alot of info on it I would post a blog on it. Scroll down a bit for my impressions of the demo

Muzzle Flash
Blindfiring











A ton of action
















The Cover System
Smokin'









The Crosshairs

















Ironsights
Chase















He Tripped











The demo is about 10 minutes long which seems pretty short but since it is so short it is a demo you can play through multiple times. For a demo it feels really polished the enemy's react well when shot and the weapons feel powerful and the cover system works well within the game. The game really makes you feel like a badass [like James Bond]  since the enemy's don't need to take alot of bullets to kill atleast from what I played from the demo. You don't take alot of shots to kill also out of the 10 or so times I finished I died about 3 times. Lastly if anyone had any doubts about Call of Duty World at War from playing this they seem to have the Call of Duty 4 engine down tight and I am looking forward to the full release.

The demo takes you through a sewer system chasing down a bad guy [it does not tell you who it is so I don't know which movie this is from] all the while he is putting explosives on the walls and trying to blow you up in that way the demo kinda feels like a on rails shooter since it is extremely linear but it could just be this level. It ends with your character going above ground to chase him down and then it shows a trailer for the game. Another thing I did like about the demo is that it gives you a an option to turn off the crosshairs and most of the hud which will propably be in the console versions also. There is no blood in the game also unless they just turned it off for the demo and like in Call Of Duty 4 the bad guys all have death animations so not really any ragdoll physics. Lastly it looks like in the full game they are embrasing the stealth aspect of James Bond games because on your phone you can find different spots in the game to havk into different cameras like in most other games but it was a feature I have not heard about in the game so I thought I would post it here. Quantom of Solace is looking like a good game I just hope the full game is more open.



I haven't been up to anything lately really except playing Rock Band 2 once and a while and I beat Brothers In Arms Hells Highway a week or two ago which I might post a blog about soon but it will be full of spoilers......I also am going to rent Saints Row 2 when it comes out
