So I played about an hour of the beta and came away quite impressed. I liked the implementation of the Move controls, they felt quite solid. It was also fun playing with just the dualshock controller.
The game felt very polished and I didn’t notice any framerate drops or texture pop in.
I hope they bring out a single player demo so I can get a taste of the campaign before the full game drops.
Overall I enjoyed playing it and hopefully the full game can offer me enough to keep me coming back for more.
