Anyone else picked this up?

Played for a few hours yesterday, and Im impressed. Imagine GTA on Mars, only better. Graphics are nicely done, weapons and vehicles are pretty cool, and you jump into the story quickly. Very cool...

and the fact that you can just wreck through/blow up anything is nice also

I played the first level for 5 minutes at Game Crazy...after a few mintues with the hammer, I was hooked.

Just got into the 2nd level (Dust?).

I find the missions just hard enough to where you have to think about them, but not hard to the point where I get frustrated and quit.

I should have bought this instead of Left for Dead. I played LFD for about 20 minutes the other day, and all I did was shoot zombies. I mean what else is there to the game besides online?

I've seen the commercial on TV and it looks badass. I may pick this up today.

Yeah I think I am going to pick it up this weekend. I really should have bought that instead of LFD.

I can't figure out which weapons/stuff is the best to buy with my salvage money. That shite doesn't come fast enough either. Slow arse salvage money.

I played the demo. Bashing shite with the sledge and driving through buildings is entirely too much fun. I also had fun finding load bearing columns in buildings and collapsing structures on top of themselves.

The physics engine is fricking sick and they made virtually anything destroyable. Believe me, I was breaking anything in sight.

Here is something that I just found out while playing custom games with my friends, you get experience toward your online ranks and unlocks in custom games. That is something I have never seen before in a game

I just bought it. I'm about to start playing. Hopefully it's as good as you've all been saying. The demo seemed alright and the response here was positive, so I feel like I have nothing to lose.

I'm still liking it. I destroyed a whole bunch of shite yesterday. I was so into it, I hit my wife in the back of the head with a loaf of bread.

Having free reign to blow up whatever you want, play online, play missions etc. is great. It will definitely give you plenty of entertainment.

I've gotten to the final mission in the story mode. It is one of the more frustrating sequences that I have ever had the misfortune of playing through.

I won't go into details, but I will say this: You will want to throw your controller through the TV after several attempts. The EDF will eat you alive.

Overall, fun game. The MP was more fun than I anticipated. I'm a big fan of Siege.
