The PC demo for AvP arrived a little early, appearing for download via STEAm last night. However, shortly after its release, message boards are rife with complaints. The graphics are horrible, the gameplay is too simple, matchmaking takes too long, etc.
But is the demo just bad or was it a rushed port of the demo being launched simultaneously for consoles?

''With Aliens: Colonial Marines being a utter disappointment, a lot of people are looking for something to fill the void. Something to fill that intense atmosphere steeped in tension. People are wanting to feel vulnerable and easily killed. Others wish to play as the ones doing the killing. These are a few alternatives to Aliens: Colonial Marines that will certainly fill the void.''
Death is never nice at the best of time but aliens have really perfected the art of long painful and often repulsive ends. Join us as we look at some of the worst ways to go off world.

His smiling face makes me want to punch it. For shipping unfinished, bland, and shallow games he should get the absolute opposite of an award.
I was so mad when I bought AVP and it wasn't good. I really liked the demo of Sinper Elite V2 though.
I was wondering why the PC demo kind of sucked.
Man i cant wait to try this out in DX11!
Hopefully ill get my other 5870 before this releases!
PC demo sucked. Badly. It'd damn better be a port.
Aw fυck
I don't know what the big deal is, IT WAS A DEMO.
They clearly stated that the demo would not support the highest effects, shaders, textures etc, if they did, it would be a 5 gig demo, and why should the many suffer because of the few DX11 card owners.
It sucks that it gave a bad impression, but all the complains are about lack of dedicated servers, and graphics, those things will be fixed in the full version.
