Haha so much water on your mill dux 
It's the usual big budget game stuff; production drags and the budget keeps increasing to the point where breaking even is well above what's actually realistic, at least at full price, and that's assuming that the break even numbers were achievable to begin with.
Really sad tho. Didn't play Amaluer (looked incredibly generic), but I've played a lot of Big Huge's games, huge respect for those guys. Hopefully they can get scooped up by other studios or start new studios.

Like the article says, I seriously doubt it will ever get anywhere, sadly. Could be amazing tho.
Nice, quite curious as to how that editor actually works
Grats 3Dnj, too much stuff going on right now, but I might pick it up in a couple of weeks~
I know, blasphemy, but I genuinely think it would've made for a better playing experience, that or an increase in the amount of painkillers around. I might be on crack, but I'd prefer that as opposed to being force into playing it as cover based shooter 90% of the time and using bullet time only to get out and snipe enemies, and only diving around when having a couple of painkillers to spare.
Finished it yesterday as well. It does have a few rough spots in the campaign, but as a whole I really enjoyed it too, though I was a bit frustrated and confused by the last fight.
First I tried just killing everybody, but apparently didn't manage to shoot everyone in time and got a Failed screen, so I figured that I was doing it wrong and that I had to flank the guy with the riot shield. Then I tried flanking around left, and got a grenade in my face every single time, so I started thinking there was some underlying puzzle that I didn't see, but after about 10 tries I finally shot enough and got through. Too clever for my own good I guess
And yeah, don't get what people are on about with the length of the game. I think the length was pretty spot on, ended just before it really started becoming too much of a grind.
I still think they failed in capturing what really made the old games exciting and unique by emphasizing covers rather than diving around gunning. It does work really well as a cover based shooter, but I'd preferred regenerating health as opposed to the painkillers and then be able to take some more fun risks.
Haven't tried out the multiplayer, but sadly I doubt I'll get around it with Diablo 3 breathing down my neck.
Got tickets for June 2nd, for once Denmark is showing early :G
It's in 3D tho, derp.
Dual wielding this and D3 at the moment, played it for about 2 hours yesterday.
It's pretty good, but to be honest then I'm slightly underwhelmed by the feel and look of the game. Was really hoping that with all the Euphoria stuff at play that it would feel a lot more "physical" than your average 3rd person shooter, with him actually pointing the gun around when you aim, the feel of weight when you move around and such. And while it does do that to a certain extent, in actual firefights you're trying to win it rarely looks as good as you'd hope and never feel like the firefights reaches their full potential. You can't take a lot of damage, and with painkillers in scarce supply then you're almost encouraged to play it safe in most situations, making it look like any other cover based shooter.
Also they have this weird over saturated flicker in their cut scenes that looks awful, no idea what they hell they were thinking with that.
It's still good fun, but I just wish they'd encourage you to play a bit more with the game, rather than make it so unforgiving out of cover that you don't dare trying anything cool.
I'd rather play D3 than this, but I figure it's gonna be a quicker game to finish so I donno :G
Needs more sci-fi
Well I just got my copy for the 360~
