    The state of insanity.
    My misadventures with Sabotain beta demo thus far:

    1.) Installed it. ;)
    2.) Loaded it up and setup options.
    3.) Started new game, locked up. Heh.
    4.) Rebooted with a scandisk, corrupted files not related to the game. :evil:
    5.) Restarted, reset options, started new game.
    6.) Ugly people, bad animations, atrocious voice acting. Sludged my way through none the less. Limited dialogue options that were pretty much black and white with no middle ground. Accomplished mission of scaring gang members and laughed all the while at the crappy animations. Everyone looked like fucking robots. Even the robots. :P
    7.) Crashed to desktop shortly after finishing first quest.
    8.) Said "Fuck it." and uninstalled. :lol:

    Sorry, guys. Granted, it's just a beta demo, but I just could not stomach anymore. I seriously doubt I will be even considering checking out the full game. I'll leave it to someone else to do a more in depth study.

    Now if you'll excuse me, I need to bathe after that experience. :P
