Worth checking out imo:

It comes out 4th of November and is only $18US from steam!

http://www.shatteredhorizon.com/

Experience intense zero gravity combat and complete freedom of movement in this multiplayer first-person shooter set in near-Earth space 40 years from now.

Use your rocket pack to fly freely through space and then land on any surface. Engage your enemies in furious firefights, or ambush them from unexpected angles.

Join your friends in action-packed 32 player battles fighting to control hollowed-out asteroids, huge fragments of Moon rock and the ruined remains of the International Space Station.

Familiar and intuitive FPS controls let you take full advantage of the zero gravity environments while astonishing graphics and advanced lighting effects immerse you in the cold reality of combat in space.

Only downside I see is that Shattered Horizon requires DirectX 10 on Windows Vista or Windows 7. There is no support for Windows XP or DirectX 9.

GFX look amazing, check out some of the other trailers around. And it's only $20.

This looks ridiculously fun and with awesome graphics.

Maybe too good to be true for Â£14.95?

On the weapons available:

Attacks can come from any direction so keep your eyes peeled for the telltale signs of enemy movement. With your rifle at the ready you can handle anything the enemy can throw at you. A rapid fire weapon with a generous clip, it is both accurate and deadly at medium range. The stealthier combatant can engage the weapon's scope and prime the chamber with a powerful 10 shot burst, lethal over longer distances. And for those who like to get up close and personal, the rifle's retractable bayonet is a fearsome tool in the right hands.

Fire ICE grenades to provide cover or be more aggressive by using EMP grenades to disable enemy electronics or MPRs to blast enemies out of cover. Your weapon will save your life so hang on to it. If you let go of your gun, chances are you're already dead.

And even better:

More levels will be coming to Shattered Horizon in the form of downloadable content expansion packs. These expansion packs will be free to all players.

For $20 you can't really complain.

ANd 32 man slot dedicated servers so it already beats CodMW2

The more I see and read about this game the better it seems.

That looks awesome, how come nobody has thought of FPS spacewalking before?

I do hope they release more weapons... one gun might get a bit boring.

I think it's quite a smart idea, as the gun is so versatile, it's now entirely down to skill on who kills who. Once you start having different guns and the sort, you get into the realms of kids shouting BUT HE IS OVERPOWERED, IT'S NOT FAIR. With one gun, you have no complaints and it comes down to either luck or skill.

Played it. It's fun. But quite hard. Takes some time to get used to the "zero gravity" feeling. Quite cool, worth the £15.

This game is AMAZING. Without a doubt one of the most straight-forward, well-executed, and relatively creative games I have ever played.

Dammit, I should be saving money not spending it. I really wanna get this, esp if it's only $20. Some of the parts look pure awesome when you're running along a ceiling shooting at a guy running along the floor and stuff like that.

Disappointing that I'm at the bottom of the required spec's though I'm used to playing old games and running them perfectly. Still, should be ridiculous amounts of fun, gameplay>graphics.

@ 30fps

And I spent more time waiting for the pointless countdowns to pass than actually playing the game

What is this nerd shit
