So the demo has been up for a few days now, what do you guys think of it so far? To me it feels like Ninja Gaiden (excluding Ninja Gaiden 3)...which is great, since I'm a big fan of the Ninja Gaiden series...but the problem I have with it is the "blade mode"...it's really cool to cut random objects in various directions, but it feels cumbersome. This is the first time where I actually felt that a game would actually work well with motion controls...

I was surprised by how much I liked it, honestly. The only thing that I dont really like is how it scores you. I dont like games like that, lol. Maybe I'll have to pick up Bayonetta sometime then.

I always planned on buying it. This just reassured it. Sonethings I don't care for is the unaware ai. You can run right up to them and dance around and they don't notice. The parry system is also goofy. Would prefer it to be harder to pull and just one button. Love how so smooth and fast it is though. Need to replay Vanquish.

What do you mean. You don't like games with a score system, or the particular score system that is implemented into Revengeance?

I agree, the A.I. is quite inattentive, but at least it doesn't make the game any less fun.

Like, I dont really care for anything score related in a single player game. It would be fine if they had an "Arcade" option like Call of Duty 4 did. Same campaign, but it would score you aswel. This just seems like it forces you to realize your score and I dont like it, lol. I guess thats the easiest way to say it.

I enjoyed what I played of it in the Zone of Enders demo, I would assume it is the same demo.

I thought the AI was pretty bad but I liked the blade mode thing. I'm not very good at it but I really like the concept. I wish you could do that while moving. Not sure if I'll buy the game but I thought the demo was decent.

If its anything like previous Metal Gear titles, dont you mean a 3 hour game and a 5 hour movie? Jk, Im a huge fan of the series but the cutscenes can be quite long, ha.

It really didn't float my boat as you said the Blade Mode was just cumbersome and jarring all stop start, not too much of a disapointmnent however, just another title to pass over in this rather crowded first quarter.

I downloaded the demo a couple of days ago and have put a whopping total of 6 minutes into it. I'll play it through a time or two later in the week, but based off of what I have played I'll likely pass on this one. We'll see though.
