I played the Xbox demo at EB over the weekend and the gameplay is pretty poopy. It's faster that the original and the fights end quicker. Reminds me of a poor man's Tekken Force mode.

Hmmm. I played it too and it seemed way better. More fluid and interesting moves as well. Plus it looks far better. I wasn't even considering this game before but the demo seemed impressive to me.
