Ha, never even heard of them before and minus big points for not even mentioning the new locomotion engine.

i agree.. but then again.. OS's review of Backbreaker ripped it to shreds, and did not even mention the real time physics in the game..

I understand what you are saying, but that has nothing do to with this impression.

well, what i took from this preview is that locomotion obviously did not even make enough of an impact on him to even mention it..

and while i really don't see anything even wrong with this preview.. (i think he is pretty fair if you ask me) , its just a preview man.. who cares what this guy thinks

its a preview, not a review

I agree, but let's not get ahead of ourselves here, either.

What I took from the impression was they didn't even know that locomotion was a key addition and they weren't looking for it.

We both could be right.

Eh, I'll just wait til the demo.

OS should have removed that BB review. It was the worst review I have ever read on the site from the writing quality, to the content, to the analysis. Didn't do justice to the game or OS.com.

The reviewier miss locomotion, but called out the new kicking mechanism as being strange (which I agree). It's definitely a reversion to an older, outdated mechanism. His logic for not needing a change is a little lacking 'which is strange considering the right analog stick controls were working just fine.'
