I got the same complaint from the Splinter Cell. I've only been hit by a pistol, but clip from point-blank range was not enough to kill me. I'd hope the system would be even less forgiving.
EDIT: Of course this may be different in higher skill levels, but when limited in Normal mode it's kinda hard to tell oOo:

I like what I've tested so far! I can't seem to make the "wall jump", the one
where your character's legs hold him in the air... any insight?

Can't seem to do it !? rofl... for example, when entering the building, can I
just stand between both walls and double-tap the jump button to have my
legs hold me off the ground there ?

Hmm don't think so, are you bouncing towards a wall then tapping the jump button or are you just double tapping standing nowher near a wall? U have to sorta jump towards a wall then tap when u hit it i think.

Nevermind, I was simply doing it in a place that didn't have enough room to
let me do a double jump for placement...
Pretty sweet, can't wait to have the full version biggrin:

It's because you have the Service Pack installed. I uninstalled mine, installed the hotfixes, works great now.
As for SC and MGS, I think Medal Gear Solid is cool as hell, and not another game will stand up to it, not even Tom Clancy's version. The NVG's he wears are cool as hell, IF YOU HAD THREE EYES!!!! heh
Anyways, I'm named after Solid Snake, so therefore he's got my back all the way. biggrin:
