I hope you can turn off that dude's voice yelling, "RIGHT THERE!". What an annoying voice. Otherwise, I'm still amped for this game.

Kudos to id for putting split-screen in this. I'm pleasantly surprised.

Nothing about this really blew me away like the other Rage trailers have, but it's nice to know they have co-op.

anyone else getting that , or is it just me?

I don't think Giant Bomb does 60 FPS video.

Hope the video encoding messed the framerate up, because this didnt look very fluid. Still rooting for ID, but this looks uninspired to me so far...

@Shuborno: not 60 perhaps , but atleast 30 , and i can see this video stuttering pretty hard so it seems to be lower than usual.

The recommended specs for this game match my 3 year old PC more or less exactly. That's astounding.

This was actually the first video that did get me excited. I really like how the weapons sound and the feedback when they hit. But this comes out at the same time as Dark Souls, going to pick that up first.

If the penalty for split screen is playable 30ish FPS, that's cool with me.

@Foggen: minimum specs usually have some use since they convey what you have to have to make the game start.

reccomended specs however dont really say that much , every game has its own definition on what reccomended would mean , while everyone has to have the same view on minimum.

if you can play the game on high , then it would be pretty astounding though :)

these kinds of things are always so darn blunt , i just try the game and find out instead.

So can you do COOP through the entire campaign? or does it have it's own coop campaign that is different?

coop is a huge deal maker for me in games like this.

It's PC footage. And the weapon select stuff, even the framerate is from the console version. Huh.

Gunning people down isn't really selling me on the game, but having a co-op is a pleasant surprise

Pretty sure that there's a seperate co-op campaign. 
 
Also you can't really complain about framerate in a videoclip that's likely not even encoded at above 20 fps.

Hrmm.. probably gonna rent then.

For the framerate i assume you are talking to other people because i didn't mention it, but speaking of framerate isn't it clocked at 60fps for consoles?

Here is why you should make HD available to all of your visitors: It increases traffic by stopping us from going to Youtube to watch these trailers for free in HD.

Haven't checked it out on other sites, but I have that experience with many Giantbomb videos on several different computers. I'm not going to put that one on Id.
 
As for the game, I REALLY hope it comes out and blows the reviewers' minds. I just can't get excited by watching the videos even though I really like Id, so I'm hoping for a positive surprise.

Probably will end up renting this game, but I like the visuals and the atmosphere so far. Stoked to try out the story but cannot see myself doing much beyond that.

I hope thats real split screen, and not just id making the video like that. Local Co-Op is always a good thing, I think.

@Shuborno: i was just talking about the video's though , not the actual game , i kinda assume that the co-op will be 60 fps just like the singleplayer,

and after checking the video out on youtube instead , it looks like the version giantbomb has , is stuttery, either that or giantbomb themselves have altered it somehow.

I don't think this is the main campaign for co-op, and it's also not being played on PC I don't think. I'm not too interested in Rage (though I and my brother will probably get it), but I'm surprised people are hating on it.

Why don't more games put a little more variety in their enemy voices.  all i hear is the same dude over and over again saying "he's over there"  "throwing a frag"

Err, Raven made Quake 4 and I bet Carmack had more to do with Carmack's Reverse than the monster closets. 
Maybe it's because I'm a programmer myself, but I'm pretty sure that Carmack does not blow at everything he does. 
 
As far as "is anything going for this game," I'm looking forward to it because it sounds like it's a game I can handle in my somewhat limited spare time - a game with the shooting mechanics id is known for with the structure and atmosphere of an RPG with the fat trimmed out. Also, my buddy and I need a new co-op game.
