You can really feel the painkiller vibe with this game, I'm pretty excited about it. I'll be checking the demo out as soon as I get home. Giantbomb.com did a quicklook with this game a little while ago and it played great.
Thanks for the tip and I tried the demo. Unfortunately, it's another loser with no ability to save your game. I only have about 800GB free on my hard drives so maybe that's why. Or, the devs were too lazy to include this "feature" (formerly standard on PCs), even as a selectable option.
I can't play "checkpoint" games because I spend all limited my time replaying the same ground. The lack of quicksave in all console ports (and now in a PC-native game) has effectively destroyed my former passion for shooters. It seems like this world ended with Crysis.
I completely agree with you. I don't have an infinite amount of time to play video games. I'd rather not waste my time doing the same part of a level over and over again. Sure, include the checkpoint system. If people want to play that way, they can choose to do that. But also include a quicksave/save feature!!!

I hope it's good and I hope they sell gazillion of copies. Although, Painkiller kinda sucked. Oh, well, we'll see.damianrobertjones - Sunday, September 11, 2011 - link
"Painkiller kinda sucked. Oh, well, we'll see."Really? A whole heap of people didn't think so
