It's one of those games I don't mind playing, but I'm in no rush.

Awesome. Also, I'd advise the complainers to keep their greasy mitts out of this topic. Also, to be honest, I'm not feeling P.O.D. for trailer music. This is one step away from Saliva, Click, Click, Boom.

Bulletstorm finally asks that most important question: " Where is the boom?"
Also, how prudent of EA/Epic marketing to remove the line about "Dicktits" from the preorder message at the end.

Pretty sure they removed that line after its first use - apparently insulting your potential consumer base isn't good PR.  
 
Still, it's made by them what did Painkiller so that's all the marketing I need to know.

Nobody's comparing this game to The Club? 
 
I'm interested in the gameplay, but all the dudebro-ification is a turn off. I thought we were past that stuff as a people. I mean, POD, seriously?

Whip, kick into spikes. Whip, shoot in balls, kick into spikes. Whip, shoot in balls, kick off ledge. Whip, uhh, throw at other people, I guess. Whip, shoot in balls, kick into oh wait I already did that.  
 
I think it'll be a competent first person shooter with a few amusing gimmicks, but not much beyond that. The Gears of War 3 pre-order bonus is going to help it more than anything else, I bet.

Why is this launching on Tuesday? Wouldn't it have been better to launch on Friday so Americans could play during the President's day weekend? That's all I've been wanting to do this weekend was play this game.

The demo totally sold me. This trailer did aswell. So did the overall concept of the game. I usually don't pre-order anything, but this one has mine.

This game automatically loses points for using this weak-ass song in the trailer.

No way man!   When I was in the 7th grade and first dreamed about making video games for a living, I TOTALLY fantasized about setting trailers and gameplay videos to such P.O.D. classics such as "Boom" and "Alive."
 
 The world has changed since then... but I'm stoked to know that People Can Fly and Epic hasn't!

@KoolAid: I could take the snobby hipster route and say that PCF/Epic totally picked this song to be exclusively ironic. :p
