ok Impressions, positives and Negatives about the DEMO only. Overall i think this is one of the better demos i've played recently.

Positives

Combat is fluent, fast paced. Although not on NG's level it's still very intuitive and isn't clunky at all.
Controls are suprisingly good...the L2 dodge is actually decent...you move with the LS so dodging with L2 makes it simple. Although i would prefered L1.
Graphics are amazing, and this is only a demo.
Music is also awe-inspiring
Story looks like it will be epic.
challenging as well although i did play on hard knight mode.
decent tutorials tells you about the basic combat mechanics and how the upgrade system works..you basically purchase moves like other games once you've obtained enough souls or whatever their called.

Negatives

- Frame rate kinda dropped in the first area..i mean the rain effects were awesome but that place looked like it was running slower than the other areas...again only a demo.
- Demo was way too short..i paid 11.99 For THIS??? /lol joke.

But seriously i enjoyed that. I love the music in this game SO much, it just makes everything so much better. I think CV games have always had great music and this game is no different. Although it's only a demo and it's quite short it does a good job of giving you a good feel on the atmosphere.

I know nothing about how the game will turn out in terms of exploration/open ended levels though. Maybe it's linear but i hope there are areas which you can roam around and it isn't as linear as say GoW.

Ifi had to compare it to another action game i can't do it to anything but GoW. Both games are similar in more ways than not. CV's combat is a lot less button mash focused compared to Gow though,

All in all looks great. I haven't changed my mind abotu getting this game, still waiting on that damn CE to be listed.

A lot of people are comparing it to God of War 3.
