Couple of guys at work thought the demo was pretty boring as well.

Me? I love it. It appeals to the same part of my brain that enjoys Dynasty Warriors and N3 though, and I know how much most people hate those so...

I just pre-ordered this on the strength of the demo. I appreciate that the gameplay is fairly simplistic, but I'm hoping that the narrative challenges within the full price game will flesh out the experience a bit more.

haha, well I'm loving it

Any game that lets me run around wearing a horses' head mask whilst killing zombies in a variety of bizarre and amusing ways is fine by me

Yes but does it let you wear a bull head mask and head-but zombies?

I loved it one of those make you smile manically as find new ways to kill games. I take the point about simplistic gameplay, I wonder how well achievements and stuff like the photography will make that less of a problem. Certainly hope so.

Blurry maybe, but even in your blurry pic, I can read the text.

I could not read a fucking thing on my TV. The text is stupidly small. I do hope that Capcom realise that not everybody has, or wants, a HDTV. This might be part of the problem, cos I couldn't even read what anything was, and in some cases, didn't even notice the bloody text - yes, it really is that small

The only other problem is that it seems obvious this demo is a big part of the game, what with the 'kills' counter and everything. Might be fun for a bit but I'll get pretty sick of it soon enough. Actually, I already did

Need me one of those memory eraser things from MiB

I want to like this fucker.

Hmmm, I didn't have any problems reading any text on my mates 28" Trinitron telly. What sort of connections are you using?

Erm I'm pretty sure the full game is *exactly* like that. Capcom have previously said that the missions were optional, although can only be completed at various times. AFAIK it's just the demo that is so restrictive to prevent you leaving an area.

Yeah, text is a little on the small side for the old composite brigade (please don't hurt me!

). When it arrives I'll cart the 360 upstairs and re-connect it to the VGA cable

Cheers

Sadly, the TV is arsed up good and proper. The Svideo input is erratic, although maybe I should pick up an svga cable. I did have an svideo lead for the ps2 / cube / dreamcast / xbox which I got from Playasia or Liksang, but the buggers don't stock them any more and the theiving cunts who stole my original xbox walked off with it

Still trying to convince my folks to replace it with an LCD TV or a cheap plassy...

Cheers

My 32" Amstrad (connected via Scart) has the same problem with the small in-game text.

Even the large red or blue text is almost impossible to read, being blurry as fuck.

Loving every minute of the actual game though.
