Red Faction starts off at 30FPS so when it slows down we\'re  down to 15-20 FPS and thats chop chop chop


Im glad to hear that. In the UK however we have PAL, i.e slower games and you could literally see the screen go choppy when going round corners. Also the intro to the tracks was very choppy. It wasn\'t too bad but not for me.

I know what you mean about Red Faction. Lets hope it is locked at 30 FPS.

How long did it take you guys to get it? I have been waiting for a while. I signed up about one or two months ago. Can\'t remember. All I can do is sit and wait...

Well, two people here signed up for the demo. Both live in the same city.

Yet only one recieved his so far. So the shipping of these demoes do not appear to be by city. My guess is, its by the time you signed up for it. But I\'m not sure of the latter either.

about 45-1 Hour, if you like to look around and experiment with things. You could run through it in about 15-20 mins if you didnt do anything but kill.

Yeah I got that demo two days ago.  Played around with it some.  Like others, couldn\'t manuver the sub easy enough to keep from getting blasted.  Very cool effect/ability in being able to "blast around" problematic areas.  

However, I feel I must ask (and someone is welcome to say "its altogether different") how come if Saddam can use PS2s for talemetry ballistics we can\'t have a 2nd gen FPS on the PS2 that rivals Counter-Strike.  The AI isn\'t so particularly bad (well, except for the droans that run right up to your kneecaps to squat & shoot at you...WTF is that all about??!!), but I have a problem with the mottled scenery.  I mean, where you first start out???...that does not look (to me) much better than the environments in PSX\'s game ONE (if anyone remembers that game).  Sorry, but the graphics on this machine can flat out SCREAM...so THQ I think you missed the boat on that one a bit.  Controller scheme is kinda "eh".  I mean, even *I* like a joystick over a mouse (and I know how much FPS purists tout mouse siting)...but the looking with this game\'s analog stick is like discombobulated molassas.  I\'ll pass for something else more worthy of my $50 beans...
