I don't know much about this game, but it looks like TF2 and therefore I suppose I'd be better off playing the PC version? I did notice the large amount of DLC, but let me know what you all think.

@CaptainTryHard: Keep in mind you'll be forced to use GFWL on the PC. I just dicked around with the trial version on the 360 and I enjoyed it, but I don't know if I liked it enough to buy it.

Also, you can technically unlock that DLC stuff without paying more than the cover price by playing in the game for awhile. The devs say it is possible to reach a level cap of 1000...well, provided that there are still people playing this a month from now.

I enjoyed both the trial and the TNT for this game, but this very fact is what keeps me on the fence about buying this.

decisions, decisions...

I forgot about downloading a demo, I'll have to do that tomorrow.

GFWL is best described as the software version of a xenomorph. 360 it must be, for anyone who isn't a masochist among masochists.

Is there a crosshair in this game? Then you need yourself a mouse.

I bought the pc version after playing the 360 trial and 100% regret it as I cannot find a single game to play. Tried searching for an hour before i just gave up. I might as well have thrown my money in the garbage.

@phonicpod: Try to ask the developers for a 360 key, on their website, you might get lucky.

I don't know but, playing this game, i just feel like it was made by a cool bunch of guys, so i feel like they might help you out.

@BPRJCTX might just do that. Wish I could play it, as I really like the game!

Go for the 360 version. GFWL is essentially a death sentence on most multiplayer PC games that are unfortunate to be riddled with it.

@phonicpod: Yeah, try it, and good luck man.

The game is great, it's really unfortunate what's happening with the PC version.

I'm not a fan of competitive multiplayer games, last one was Gears 3, and before that Gears 2, there was like a 2 year gap where i didn't play anything online, but i'm having a lot of fun with this game, that should tell you something.

And this game wasn't even on my radar, untill i played it.

Great surprise.
