If you actually want to see how the game REALLY plays (which, for my money, is spectacularly), forget about all the trailers and the "Now Playing"s - JUST WATCH THIS. If you don't have enough time for the whole thing, skip to around about the 55 minute mark to see the sweet stuff.

I still haven't pre-ordered this, but I think I'll preorder it from Mighty Ape and just hope it comes before next week. At least I still get the DLC, a cool keyring and two copies of the game. Kinda getting excited about it now.
Also, Big Daddy is the only character I'll be playing for this. Although given everyone in the Beta was going with Radic, I can imagine any online play will be a Radic VS Kratos sausage fest. Radic is only good because you can shoot across the maps.

When it comes to astonishingly annoying across-the-map antics, my money's on Radec playing second-fiddle to Sackboy once people really get to know his adorable, insufferable long-range game. Kratos will still be Kratos, and despite my excitement at the prospect of using so many other characters, dollars to doughnuts says he'll end up being my main. I just like the guy too damn much. Hell, I'm looking foward to getting my hands on that SacKratos Keyring almost as much as playing the game!
Almost.

I'm gonna be real interested to see how this sells. It's the first time (in my memory) I've seen a game like this outside Nintendo so that works in it's favour but the demo just felt lifeless to me. I'm prolly comparing it too much to SSB though.

I like SSB, so I'll probably get this at some point unless it turns out to be a giant piece of garbage.
I think they should have gotten some more third party characters though.

PLAYING : GUILD WARS 2 I WALKING DEAD I NBA2K13 I HOTLINE MIAMI
Wipeout is Sonys best 1st party franchise :/. Is it in this game at all??
I will buy this game as with a brand new PS3 (and as a bonus, allow campzor to pick a sig/avatar for me to use for a year) if I can play as a Feisar racing craft from Wipeout 2097 and have me fight with it by completely flying into people.

Anybody who has a desire to possibly play this on the Vita in the future - or, has a Vita and has access to a PS3 - should be buying the PS3 version only since you get the Vita version for free with it.

It is frustrating, especially since there's no way to retain the saves when you do delete a game. Sometimes that works in your favour (like me deleting Rayman Origins off my Vita means I'll have to start all over again) or against you (I deleted Everyone's Golf! to make way for something else and now I've lost access to all my skirts). At least with the latest PSPlus update there'll be cloud storage for the Vita.

Are you sure about this? Back when I was living on 4GB (after launch) I had to temporarily delete Tactics Ogre and Patapon 3, and when I re-downloaded them, my progress was completely intact.
