Crap demo. I loved ME2. Not buying this one until it's heavily discounted.

I can't think of a single thing I liked. I'm very surprised...

You're not the only one... The controls feels very unpolished/sluggish as well...

At first I felt the same way. It just kinda felt off somehow. The more I kept playing the more I started liking it. It's faster paced now, that's why it felt a little off.

I do, however, disagree with "crap demo"; I thought the demo was fantastic and made ME fan (like me) felt right at home (RPG mode obviously). Graphics do feel a little downgraded but I felt the mass scale of the levels went up as well (console limitation) so it's not a biggie for me. Lighting effects seem really good this time around and the music was very good.

With that being said here are things 2 things I want to improved, they're not biggies:

1. I'm planning to buy this for the 360 and the PC (Yes, I do have ME1/ME2 on PC and 360) so I want a graphic upgrade for the PC version.

2. I was sorely dissapointed in F Shephards face. She just didn't have the detail on her skin as M Shephard did. Fix her face!

And her running animations... seriously looks like an ape running... Why didn't they keep the same animation from the 2nd one?

I personally thought the demo was great, and I can't wait to get my Collector's Edition. The only thing that bothers me is the running animations, for Shepard and squadmates. They're too floaty.

I'm also curious to know how old the demo build is. The full game will have a "Helmets always off" option which wasn't present in the options menu in the demo. It doesn't make any difference in the demo itself but that doesn't stop me from wondering.

I agree with you with the running animations. They look downright silly. Especially at the beginning where you're following Anderson. He looks like he's being chased by bees. I prefer the sprint animation from ME2.

[QUOTE="topsemag55"]Seemed short to me compared to the time you got in Amalur's demo. Really liked the fact that even as a Vanguard, I could use an assault rifle, couldn't do that in the others.

the return to ME1 style weapon use is going to make playing different classes quite interesting.
