Just as the title states, crap that makes no sense what-so-ever goes here (i.e. spam).

I just bought it today. PC. I don't have an XBox gold account and would not use one a ton. Plus, while split screen is not a huge issue (big TV), my wife prefers non split as do I if possible plus she is way more a PC gamer than a console gamer (controller). I also, obviously, grabbed her a copy for the PC, BUT we will not be opening it till she tries the game so we can return it if it is not quite her thing.
It is a Shooter RPG in an original setting called Pandora. It is getting good reviews though there have been some MP issues so I hear. I am sure those will get fixed. 4 Player online or LAN co-op. Huge world. Lots of weapons and item drops. Story is apparently not super deep. AI is conflicted. Some love; some think it is a bit dumb. The RPG element while there I gather is not super deep. I will post more after I get a chance to play it. Looks fun. On that, man am I also looking forward to id's Rage heheh.
I ended up getting it for the 360. Loving it so far. It's sort of like Diablo with guns. The loot system is insane, you'll rarely find the same gun twice (except for the one dropped off a boss). Splitscreen isn't all that bad, my only complaint is you can't splitscreen during an online match. So you can't have 2 people playing locally with 2 other people somewhere else.
Just keep in mind, I've heard bad things about getting it through Steam atm. Whatever 3rd party system it goes through is a bitch.
If anyone gets it on the 360, send me a PM with your gamertag and I'll hop on sometime with ya.
I thought this was a decent Overview review. Don't agree with everything little thing, and I have not gotten far, but it seems to touch on the highlights.
One guy mentioned a Tarantio typw feel. Well, yes and no. Ever see Shoot em Up, Smokin' Aces, Crank? It has some of that over the top feel of those with some odd mini cinematic scenes akin to Crank. Art is a graphic novel-esque sorta feel. Different but blending a lot of old ideas / approaches.
