Go get it.
I honestly never played it before, i'll try it now then.
Harm94:
I think i'll stick with my origional sd version.
Chrono:
If only it wasn't steam... :(
Tokthree:
Don't bother, it's not a full free weekend and you only get to play the stuff versus mode which is a bad quake-clone which nobody plays.
Here's a dev's post in one of the many disappointment threads on their Steam forums
"This was never supposed to be a free "full game" weekend, but a free "versus" weekend because it makes no sense to give the full game for free for a weekend since everyone can complete the game in one weekend (and we wouldn't get a dime from it). I don't know why the banner says free "full game" since this doesn't make any sense. I don't remember CoD having a "full game" weekend, just the versus modes were free...
Just think about it... Free full game weekend? Come on, it's not like this is WoW or something which takes you months/years to complete.
We will probably contact someone about the banner though, this is in fact false advertising."
And here's the thread in which he posted; http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1351771
They apparently think that their own game is so stuff that nobody would want to play it more than once, and that the versus mode is the best part of the whole experience!
