Ok, seriously. All I have to say about this demo is:"What the hell, man? What.The.Hell.".I have no idea of why Namco Bandai would choose THIS to be a representative of their game to draw in potential buyers. Seriously, the difficulty was jacked up to ridiculous levels. I know, I know, there are some people that would argue it's not that hard once you think up a good strategy(which boils down to controlling Rita and spamming magic while in OverLimit), but let's be serious here. A demo is supposed to target those who aren't sure on whether they're going to get the game or not yet, and most Tales fans are not in that group. There's no excuse to make a 10 minute gameplay clip this stupidly difficult, especially considering I've had an easier time with Tales of the Abyss on Hard and Extreme than this.

In short: Avoid this demo and rent the game if you're not sure of a buy. Namco Bandai really screwed up on this one, and all it'll do is make you not want to buy the game, even though the final product is much easier.
