Whoa, sorry for pouring a gallon of salt into your wounds! I was just going by what was in that post on their blog. I had no idea there was a mix-up! I really liked your theme song. Maybe they should have used it this time since the first one they picked was just a snippet from a Crystal Castles song.
So, this isn't right? Have I been misled?!

Glad you're back! I was just thinking about you with the Player One Podcast trying to change their theme song lately... seems like they had some trouble changing from yours (which is awesome).
I also like shooters, and don't go to shmups.com because I don't feel worthy. Not that anyone was rude to me (I probably just lurked), but it makes me realize I'm nowhere near as serious about those as some people. I still love 'em, so I'm happy to read/watch about them in your stuff.
Again, we're happy you've returned!
There was definitely no running for cover from bullets in the demo. He was constantly moving, constantly attacking and they made it clear in the pre-chat that there would be no cover and no regenerating health. It really had that Doom feel. We couldn't tell how much health he had since there was no HUD, but I suspect the damage system might have been off/tweaked to make sure the demo was successful. The only death was that one to the jetpack guy and it happened pretty fast. He showed up and almost instantly jumped on top of the marine and yanked his arms off.
I'm racking my brain trying to think of any projectiles that were dodged, and I'm coming up short. I can't commit to yes or no. The most memorable interactions were obviously the melee attacks, mainly becaue they were so gib-heavy. If you're looking for fast and gross, I think you'll be happy.
One thing I didn't mention in my write-up is that there were no on-screen prompts, but the fight with jetpack guy sure seemed like it was going to be some sort of QTE. Maybe not, but I am a little worried about that in hindsight. The same might be true for the big finishing moves like the organ into mouth bit at the end. I'm not sure how scripted those will be, but hopefully they will be pretty organic.
Regardless, from what you've written, I think you will be pleased.
I like hanging at the auto shop too... for a while. A good excuse to just chill and remember why morning TV is terrible.
I can't believe you didn't buy that copy of DJ Hero 2. It's half off!
Congratutlations, man!
I treasure my copy of Skyrim with a perfect imprint of a 1 year old's teeth on the case.
It was always pretty long... Almost nobody could stay for the whole thing. It's too bad because he always had interesting bits throughout, but it was an endurance challenge.
Yes you can. You'll get a darker world/ending if you are a noisy jerk, but that is just fine.
