It is being billed as a Dx10 only game (which naturally includes Dx11), so it will work on Dx11 systems but I don't think it will take advantage of them.

The AVP demo doesn't even have DX 10, not to mention 11 :/.

Its a good demo rather boring mind you, got the game running everything pushed to max including AF and AA at a steady 30FPS which is playable with a HD4890/Phenom II 550. Here are some pics:

It's gorgeous.

I haven't figured out too many tricks yet, but the action is quite awesome. The car chases are especially great.

Its ok I guess - I can't get the hang of the controls really though (thats just me, I am sure that fans of it will enjoy themselves). Feels like it might be best played with a controller though.

I am trying to download it, but Steam does not allow me to acess it; it says: "Sorry, but you're not permitted to view these materials at this time."

Anybody know why the hell is this happening? Never had such issues with steam before. Could it be because of my location or something?

I'm really skeptical of this one. I sense a repeat of the first game.

I haven't played the first for a while, that said from the demo all I can say is that its no GTA4 when it comes vehicle handling.

Never really played the first even though I have it on the original Xbox, but I found the driving to be a little stiff. Used both the keyboard and the X360 controller and it felt weird with both.

In the first game steering was kinda fast, a simple press of the A or D could get you off your course. I hope its not the same as the first.

Just played the demo..... WOW! this game is awesome!!! :D Its like I'm playing an action movie, I was actually thinking of Quantum of Solace while I was playing :P I can't wait for this one. The only thing I could see being bad about the final version, is if we're doing the same few things over and over for the whole game. Either way it will still be a blast to explore and do the story missions (the island looks HUGE and diverse BTW).

Wow, it requires Vista or Win 7. STONE COLD 4 XP USERS like myself. :-( Yeah, yeah, I know, time to upgrade, XP is obsolete, no longer supported, get with it, you're lame, you suck, you're a loser, kill yourself n00b, blah, blah.

Have to agree with you. The vehicle handling is not its best feature. They handle OK, nothing special.
I have to map left ALT to some other key. Its really inconvenient for me.

I am uploading a video of the gameplay on YouTube. Its a really good game and everything works well. Of course, you only need to fire a shot and the whole police force on the damn place is after you within a matter of seconds. And that's at Heat Level 1!
Anyway, the video will be up soon along with a stupid glitch video.

I had a stupid glitch, I zip-lined across the whole map. It was really funny.

The game is jaw-droppingly beautiful and runs very well. There are so many special effects and the attention to detail is amazing...

I think i'll pick it up at launch. I played it for two hours and it just gets better as I learn new tricks. It's outrageous, like a dumb '80s action movie!

HERE is the gameplay video.

Physics are really good, and so is the whole parachute gameplay. It does have some annoying gameplay design.

The car crash was really cool.

You can attach to a gas canister, shoot it and then ride it. Epic.

Yeah, just play with the huge back catalog of San Andreas mods and call it for a mindless sandbox experience bud.

My thoughts exactly.... As if you're gonna release a game with NO support for XP....since lots of gamers still use it...

The graphic is nice and all yes and it all runs well. But the driving feels a little awkward somehow. THe car feels like it has slippery oil on the tires whenever I use the handbrake. It suddenly feels like GTA IV driving but not that bad.

The voice is just strange sometimes. Gunplay feels good. Stunts are good. The helicopter with the miniguns is just a bit overpowered. It feels pretty easy using it to gun down everything n sight as well as not getting owned by the other helicopter. It's fun but it feels like the player is thrown into a free world so suddenly it feels strange at first. I sure hope the whole game is not just about raising chaos level all the time and do rescue/escort missions.

I think it's a fun game. Will I buy it? No. Will I play the demo every once in a while? Definitely. The graphics look great at max settings.

I'm dling it right now but I'm not going to be getting this on release day. I've never played the first but I know it got a mixed reception. Maybe I might pick it up when its 19.99 or less.
