I personally thought it could turn out to be a great game it was exciting and the controlls felt good and natural although i did notice some frame rate drop once in awhile but maybe that was just my 360 over all it seemed like a really fun game.

The demo was very short and very easy. It doesn't look like much compared to GoW.

I loved it, the framerate will hopefully be fixed by the full version.

Except for a few moments where the frame rate seemed to drag a bit, the demo was very impressive.  Very pretty and competently designed.

The only beef I have with the demo was the framerate problems and the aiming and movement, way too much aim assist, other than those two things I'd say it's pretty damn good.

Seems like the game might have some promise to it. i thought the controls were a little too lose and i did get a bit of framrate drop but the game has a few months before it's released

I liked it alot. I love how when you shoot the things thats running to you and if they die then they actually slide and fall towards you. They dont stop and fall. Thats next-gen right there.

Yeah it was short it seems more and more live demos these days are only 10 maybe 15 minutes long which is ridiculous i mean what happened to the demos that were like two levels/stages those were great although I'm sure they cant be as big these days because next gen games take up a lot of space.

It is a "teaser" Demo. It was supposed to leave you with a lot of questions like in a teaser trailer for a movie.

It's just a teaser, IMO not enough to base opinions on. Hopefully a more full demo will be released closer to game's launch.

It was fun, when i ran out of ammo i actually got kind of scared and thought those aliens would kill me (thank god for the pistol!! lol)

so it definately made me feel like i was in that situation. Not just playing it if you know what i mean

It just a generic shooter. Doesn't mean it can't turn out to be a good game.

It felt a bit like Project: Snowblind. I hope it gets better as time goes on but at the moment average is about the best thing I can say about Blacksite.

Pretty fun, but really short for 500MB. Liked the graphics and the epic atmosphere made it feel like you were really there, not just playing a game.

It wasn't all that bad, but the framerate really choked during the shootout. Other than that, it was totally worth checking out.

I thought the demo was good.

The main thing that let it down was the Framerate issues. Some real slow down problems in places. Hopefully they'll sort it for the full release of the game. If they do sort it fully this could be a great game.

The squad commands were hella basic, which seemed like the squad aspect was just kind of thrown in there. Framerate was terrible almost every time there was action. The graphics looked like an xbox game with super exaggerated bump mapping that you didn't really every notice until you got up close to things. But the controls were pretty natural feeling. The gameplay itself was REALLLY easy and boring really fast. God mass effect and Halo 3 need to hurry the hell up :P

Stop complaining about the frame-rate. It is a demo for goodness sakes. To me, the game's frame-rate was very easy to get through. You guys need to focus on the game, not the freaking performance. If the frame-rate was really really slow ( 5 fps, for example ), then it is good enough to complain about.

Now here is my own opinion; When the game first started, I was really amazed by the outstanding rain effects that were pouring on many of the objects in the game. When me and my squad got out of the jeep, one of your squad members were talking right in-front of your face. The man's detail was outstandingly real. The way his lips synched with his voice and the fluid lighting that went on his body gave the game life. Everything felt apocalyptic in all ways, especially the destroyed cars and run-down buildings.

The squad mechanics that were presented to you were basic, true. But the AI from your allies are great. They can take cover by themselves and they can assist you when you really need help. Your enemies, while alien, are smart too. They can flank and take cover like your allies and they can communicate realisticaly to take you down.

There is no cover system in the game, but cover systems are cheap and they get rid of the intensity that we haven't seen in many shooters these days, so it is a great move from the developers. The cover areas themselves are still useful and it can become cinimatically instense when your cover is being blown to peices and you need to move some where else.

I liked the demo. From the look of the mutliplayer modes, the game looks promising. It is definatly a must buy, imo. You guys just need to look past the minor flaws and see the true game itself. It looks promising, all ways considered.

It was pretty good. The graphics were very similar to Gears' and the gameplay reminded me of Resistance:FoM...but that's just my opinion.

No way 5fps would look like a slide show because a game runs at like 30fps and if it even drops to 25 or 20 its pretty bad so if it got to 5 it would be ridiculous like it was just pictures of a game.

Pretty good actually.  I am suprised on how well it played.  Only thing I recommend them doing is to fix the framerate a little.  When you shoot your guns, it chugs a little more then it should.
