I'm curious to know how much you can actually interact with the city.

I remember posting about this when it was jus ta tech demo called Kara. So they're making a game out of it now. Neat. Im always torn on these type stories. I hate how humans treat machiens and I like to help them become free but at the same time I dont like stronger superior machines beating humans. Catch 22.

I really love this demo. This stuff is right up my alley. Maybe I'll be getting a PS4 because there are enough exclusives to enjoy now.

Thats Jesse Williams from Greys Anatomy and Minka Kelly from Friday Night Lights.

Not for me. The game looks great graphically but I cant play a robot overthrowing humans. I dont care for anything where humans are the weaker or overthrown subjects. Hate it in scifi and certainly dont care to play the part of the androids in this or be humans who treat androids like crap.

Not for me.
I just want to point out the Daehawk said these two things back to back. I just don't understand. :P

I think it looks really cool.

Not very much at all, and only in the way the devs want you to. Exploration is basically nil. That isn't to say it isn't a great game. It's just not about Detroit.

I finally got around to playing this (thanks again RMC!) and it almost lost me in the first hour or so but after that I was enthralled. I got choked up so damn often playing this... damn those humans.

Also, a couple notes:
1) This could be renamed QTE: The video game
2) It made Cyberpunk seem stable... I think it crashed 6-8 times in the 10.5 hours the game lasted.

I just finished the PC version and I have never found myself so emotionally caught up in a video game before. I only wish there were no QTE because I suck at hurry up. And some of the words used to describe options during "hurry up" sequences were rather obtuse. Worth a second play-through someday. I highly recommend this game if you ever come down with gamer's burnout.
Jesus said, "Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body."[Matt 10:28] God can totally destroy us.

Jesus also said, "For my Father's will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.”[John 6:40] Eternal life is conditional.

His disciple John wrote, "Whoever has the Son has eternal life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have eternal life. [1 John 5:12] Eternal life is optional.
