TimeShift demo on Xbox Live

[Mannginger]

Cool concept (seen before obviously) and well executed. Supporting 16 player multi-player too.

People will be shifting time all over the place - how cool will that be? I pause time and shoot at you, you fast forward time and dodge out of the way, or rewind time and never turn up in the place I was shooting!

I can't wait to see how the multi-player pans out (and the normal game looks quite pretty too -nothing quite like stopping time, shooting someone with an exploding crossbow and watching the (messy) results!


Oohh that's gonna hurt!

Haven't read the article, but by the sounds of it, its impossible unless everyone experiences the same amount of time "shifting" [e.g. one person slows down time, everyone must experience the slow down]. Im guessing thats how it must work ?

I played the demo a bit a bit but got stuck at one point and didn't have a clue how to sort it out!!!

Which bit?

When you go down an alley, and then round a corner and join up with a bunch of other soldiers. Theres a massive gap as you look forward, and a big monster thing that shoots fire. You can't seem to destroy it, and then one of the soldiers says 'what are you waiting for - get in the house!' so i go in the house and still can't destroy that thing, and i can't advance because of the massive gap in the road thats fenced off by barbed wire.

Just didn't know what to do.

Into the house, up the stairs, through the gap in the wall (fire escape) Up the ladder, break the window, in, reverse time, run through and then get fighting!
