    Hmm so I've been waiting for the demo since Aug 1st (when the demo was announced.) I wake up quite early (12pm very early by my standards) turn on the 360 and stick the demo on to download.

    All is going well, every now and then while I have breakfast I check to see the progress. Slowly it reaches 99%! I bounce around the room as the demo just reaches 100% annnnndddd it fails I die a little...

    Now my xbox live doesn't work and every time I go into the newly released section for demos i get the following "Can't retrieve information from Xbox Live. Please try again later"

    All i can say now is WHYY MEEE

    So hows everyone else finding the demo?

    Pretty meh TBH. Graphics aren't all that great and the gameplay isn't anything special really. Pretty fun though, but I could see it getting boring after not too long.

    I kinda liked it. I didn't expect it to be groundbreaking but just fun and it delivers As for the graphics yeah they are pretty meh. Something about the lighting seems off and the textures seem pretty low res.

    I think it's a case of wait and see now, hopefully the game will be polished up a bit more, and I wouldn't be surprised if they reduced the texture quality to make the game smaller for download purposes.

    Yeah thats exactly what I'm hoping for. Another thing thats got my attention is the fact that most items instantly break apart as soon as you touch them, chairs being one of them.
