Was any of it scary?  I do not have a 360. :(

From youtube videos, it seemed like a 3rd person shooter where you walk slow and shoot angry people.

Not really scary at all.

Unless you're like, out of everything. Including health.
AND IT SUCKS WHEN YOU'RE PARTNER IS DIEING AND YOU HAVE TO HELP THEM, AUGH!!!

I'm sure it gets scary later on in the actual game.

I havent played it yet, but my brother told me there are chainsaw people in this demo.

The chainsaw guys in RE4 freaked me out to a point where I couldnt think straight just by showing up.

I CANT do it.

I cant stay calm close to them even knowing how easy to beat they are.

Its psychological.

Well, it helps to shoot them from a close distance.

But much easier with a partner... Although all I did was hand my brother ammo and fended off some of the Africans.

I call them Africans because they aren't zombies...

I beat both mission on my first try today.

It's surprisingly easy, I guess the first time I was just getting use to the weird control scheme.

Fix'd.
But yes, it is necessary. You have to either be a nigga or call someone a nigga to "bust a cap in one's ass". If not, it's just shooting.

Nothing wrong with just shooting though.

I'm gonna try this baby out tonight!

Played through the demo with my brother, and it was a lot of fun.

Going to pick this one up when it comes out.

DOODS.

You are all way behind the times.

Real RE fans would already have played the demo when it came out in Japan, in early December. All you had to do was download it via torrent, burn it onto a CD, put it in your xbox and it would show up under your demo list.
 :giggle:

Pretty neat feature actually, I'm surprised nobody has found a more...naughty use for it. :noir:

When I found out you could do that, I was like.

Woah.

But then I was like.

I'll just wait.

Yep, same here.

I'd rather just wait and play it "when its done" instead of haxxing some weird stuff and risking a ban from XBox Live.

This game is bullshit. It's terrible. Let's hope they improve for the real deal.

Why can't you walk or strife with your gun ready to fire? Ok,it might make a little sense to have to stop to aim. But come on, you have to stop with the knife too? What bullshit is this... It breaks game flow and it's just awkward.

FUCKING CAMERA PROBLEMS.I hope you're not planning on shooting into a doorway. Because you won't be able to see shit because the camera thinks the wall is important. Plus it's too far away from Chris, so all you can basically see is his back for half the fucking screen. Also, it makes it awkward for running around corners, or dodging enemies in general.

There are tons of other things as well, but hey it's a demo I'll let it slide for now...

I could go on about how bad this game is but the positives are... I like the menu system, button layout, and switching quickly between guns and items.

Also, in a game where you have a co-op partner, at least you can't kill her with your shots. So congrats Capcom. She's not too dumb either, and she's an ebony goddess. Though I wish they would've made her charcoal black for amusement.  :D

If you liked the demo (you're probably age 12-15 and think it's cool because it looks good...), do not let it fool you. I bet not much will change between this and the real release. Sure it's fun now, but these are just demo levels. Wait till you're in a confined hallway with no vision because the camera is looking at a wall. Then some African zombie starts munching on your head while you're calling out to your partner to save you because YOU CAN'T FUCKING SEE IT.

Try harder Capcom, don't ruin one of my favorite franchises...

Hi!

I played the demo. And it sucked. I mean...
Playing the game properly was damn hard... and just running in circles to avoid the zombies was boring.

The demo wasn't scary AT ALL, btw..

Aw... the only thing halfway good was the presentation. :/

Not gonna buy the game if it doesn't turn out totally different.

 My 2 cents...

it's just such a slap in wii-owners faces, especially since the wii pointer controls were far superior to the analog controls.

Well if your a Resident Evil fan, do you have Resident Evil 4 for the Wii? That could be entertaining.

I tried the demo a couple days ago, and I gotta say... I wasn't very impressed.  It just felt like RE4 Redux.

I can forgive the controls and all because, well, it's Resident Evil and I expected it to have clunky controls.  But the demo itself just didn't catch my interest at all.  I think it's got to do with the fact that RE is such a story-driven franchise (even though the stories are usually total schlock).  Being dropped into the middle of everything and not knowing what's going on was just kind of lame.  I think they should have at least included the opening scene and the first level, just to draw you into the story a little.  Make you want to see what happens next.  But instead you get spoilers of Chainsaw Guy, who instead of a burlap bag has a towel wrapped around his face for some reason.

not really. It's Nintendo's fault that they didn't put a hard drive in. The dumbest ting to do in today's market with downloadable content and the such.

I played the demo, didn't really like it all that much. I've never been a big fan of the RE games.

I liked this though:
