The short version
- I am excited and energised by it all, but also at the point of slightly delirious fatigue (not helped by the Gamescom flu determinedly setting in).
- It is, in other words, a less than ideal time to be seeing a game as relentlessly, overwhelmingly intense as Alien Deathstorm.
- But play it I did - and half an hour later I found myself walking away thinking I might just have seen one of my favourite demos of the show.
What happened
As my demo wraps up and I prepare to leave, he quickly steps in to reassure me, 'We'll have an easy mode in the full game'. And while my Alien Deathstorm demo is undoubtedly an absolute mind-melt of screaming murder and arterial violence, as I wobble shellshocked out the booth I think: I wouldn't have it any other way.
