Why would it be Gamespot's fault for handing out codes Eidos gave them? If anyone is at fault here it's either someone at Eidos for handing GS full game codes instead of demo codes or SCEA for handing Eidos full game codes instead of demo codes.Dice said:

I was fully intentioned on buying! I guess we will see how this thing plays out now.Amir0x said:aw shit they accidentally gave the game away for free?

Could be GS's fault if they were given both the demo codes and full game codes (to be won in some competition) and if they mixed them up.Killthee said:

We'll likely never know which party messed up.
Me neither. I remember when some were still able to play one of the serious sam games on steam after the free weekeend, it was eventually patched. I guess if people refuse updates for the game they can keep it for free but if you want the online co-op patch you'll have to update.brandonh83 said:

I don't really care about co-op seeing as I'm mostly a single-player kind of gamer, but if the case arises where I do need to actually buy the game to get all the content, I will. Again, still not celebrating, it just seems like something that is way too good to be true.

when games like this fail, hardcore gamers everywhere are just that much more worse off
I was torn between buying this game on PS3 or PC but if this PS3 copy is the full version, I'll buy the PC version at least.
the game is amazing solo, but there are about four or so co-op puzzles that are really really special.
one co-op puzzle in particular is one which I consider the greatest single puzzle this generation, and one of the best of all time
it's not that it's incredibly difficult, it's that it's an expression of pure joy, the cleverness of it all would blow anyone away. If only for that specific puzzle, I hope everyone tries co-op through once.

Well if that's the case I'll have to give it a shot despite my preferences.

So yeah, only been through the first area but that was pretty damn fun.
Got the 360 version so aiming was a bit annoying at first but I'm used to it now.
Do the challenge rooms get harder?

you know how cynical I am, brandonh83. At first, me and my brother in law couldn't immediately figure out the solution. But we got what we had to do in under a minute. It was the execution that had me giggling like some overgrown school girl. It was so clever, so absolutely amazingly fun to actually do, that I still can't stop thinking about it. The entire game is super fun and despite the easiness of it mostly all the puzzles have that clever whip to it, but this puzzle specifically was just outrageously awesome.
When I completed it me and my brother-in-law sank back into the couch and I just said "THAT WAS THE GREATEST THING I HAVE EVER DONE IN A VIDEOGAME EVER."
when you get to it (I think it's Firey Depths level) you'll know

They get "harder", but I want to manage expectations and say the game is always fairly easy. It gets more devious and especially the platforming later on gets significantly more complex, but overall it's a "easy" class game. Apparently the DLC levels are all much much harder than anything included in the game, so there's that to look forward to.
But this is a case where the easiness of it all doesn't matter much, and I generally can't stand easy games. This game is so clever all of the time, you can see the focus was on the perfect arcade type flow that works with friends.

So you can only see that puzzle if you play with another player co-op?Amir0x said:

That room in solo also has a puzzle, but it is significantly different and is nowhere near as clever as this one. And it'd be impossible to match the cleverness of it alone, trust me. The amazing joy you get it from it is completely dependent on the puzzle being done cooperatively. It's not something that could even be done alone. Even if you hate co-op play, I can't imagine you wouldn't at least admire what they achieved with it.
It literally is on par with anything Nintendo has done, imo. I mean that as the highest compliment.

Is this a 2 player co op? We might have to set up an online game once we sort things out.

No, I don't mind playing co-op at all, in fact good co-op only puzzles will be a great incentive for my wife to play the game with me, as she loves puzzles (and so do I). I just hope the game is not mechanically too difficult or frustrating.Amir0x said:
