thanks gaf
I know what you mean now. Yeah, the demo must have the reversing tool from the SDK on it, but they haven't allocated alternate icons for it so we get the wrong ones popping up.iNvidious01 said:
EDIT: First thoughts are it's very rough looking, the performance is messy and the field of vision makes me ill. Nice job.
*sigh*
Wow..This was just awful,soulless, horrible and very boring demo, outdated graphics, garbage animations,generic looking environments, bad textures, and the gunplay is just freaking weak , completely unsatisfying and I felt nothing,this is most be one of the worst demos this generation.
I am not buying this, actually after at this point, I gave up on Insomniac completely and I am not buying anything from them, I gave them a chance after R2 disaster ( R:FOM was decent ffs, what a sad sad ending), but they continue their bad shallow efforts.
I am very disappointed.

im still gonna buy it because of the story but this demo left me unimpressed. think this was the wrong level to showcase a demo on.
it felt really blurry and muddy, i remember of resistance 1 looking really clean and sharp. it didnt have the most detail etc but it still looked good.
on the plus side the cut scenes looked nice and weapons felt solid. glad the wep wheel is back also.
edit: this is what im talking about, it looks so much cleaner and clearer than the shit i just played

That's a dam shame, I guess they'll just never be able to live up to the original, what with this and that crap they showed at e3 I really think they've lost it.

they are so hit and missmclaren777 said:
RFOM was awesome
TOD was kinda Meh
R2 is god awful
ACIT is great
wth is going on over there
Demo crashed on me when in the middle of shooting up the longlegs (?) - not a good sign 
Apart from that the demo was unimpressive, the boat level was a bad choice.
Standing on the one place shooting things from a distance or jump onto the boat doesn't really give a true impression of the game play.
The weapons were fun, but the shotgun that you were given was the sensible choice on that level.
& has been mentioned - the graphics are blurry/muddy. It looks like is low resolution, but i could be wrong.

Oh hey look, another demo topic where people forget it's a demo and bitch about every little thing they percieve to be wrong with it. Love these! I wanna play too! I HATED HATED HATED the demo.
Hated that it ended.
I seriously don't know why a developer would even release a demo anymore because we all know that whatever level they release is going to be the most boring level in the game, the graphics are going to be sub-PS2 quality, and the frame rate's going to go down faster than a Taiwanese hooker, amirite?

I don't blame them, they "lost it" after R:FOM, I think it's Sony fault, they should have hired another and actually good developers for Resistance 3 some guys who can actually make damn first person shooter that is not an utter mess like this piece of poop demo,SCEA should know after Resistance 2 abomination that Insomniac is a lost cause.

TOD was not "kinda Meh". It's just slightly below ACIT.

I actually liked TOD more than ACIT.Metalmurphy said:
Just finished playing it. I liked it, but this was the wrong section to demo. You had such a limited field of movement that it felt constraining. I would have preferred to play what they showed in that trailer afterwards. I guess they were trying to showcase the atmosphere of the game more, but you can't really do that when the doctor is constantly telling you stuff like "OH LOOK AT THAT JOSEPH, A DEAD KRAKEN" and telling you how to use a shotgun. You can't create an atmosphere while also putting in such a blatant tutorial. Not to mention how scripted it was. When the Goliath was approaching and I was suppose to hide, I specifically started firing at it to see if I could get it's attention, but nothing happened until he passed us. That stuff takes you out of the game more than anything else. Either way, it looks like an interesting game, and I'll definitely get it.

Developers just need to spell it out in huge bold letters at the beginning and end of a demo that it IS A WORK IN PROGRESS. But then people probably wouldn't read it so I guess they should yell it all them as well.

The demo is a very old build that journalist were writing about months ago. The game has been polished quite a bit since then as evident by the Sony press conference.
Iv'e played a current build, it is amazing. Really takes me back to the original in terms of sheer fun. Graphics are also a huge leap above the first two games. You don't have to take my word for it.

Then maybe they shouldn't have released this demo? I don't get why you release a substandard demo when you're trying to build hype for a game that's supposed to be your return to form after a disappointing sequel.

If they wanted anyone anywhere near E3 to play this they would have released it in another territory. It's an old build they are showing to people who made not have seen them showing off the game for the last few months live. This is just a hands on chance for people who are less likely to have had hands on or seen the new footage.Absoludacrous said:
If insomniac wanted us to play this demo, they would have given it to us.
.la1n said:
Then why release a demo of an old built that doesn't do anything but gives a very wrong and negative impression towards your game? Seriously the stuff i've seen so far looked very promising but then they choose to release such a demo...
That's not how you hype or persuade people to play your next game.

Maybe the fact you have to log in to the singapore store to get it is a sign it wasn't meant to be released?

Wonder how long it's going to take to get this taken down from this public state. Sigh.
Keep in mind this is linear, moody, environmental story piece. It's also really old code as it had to get on the Battle: LA Blu-ray months ago.
I still think i you turn up the sound and turn off the lights, you'll have a good time and get a great feel for the tone of R3.

I never use demos as in indication of whether a game is good or not anymore for this very reason. I like to rent the full game upon release and if I like it I'll buy it.jstevenson said:

Thanks for the tip. Downloading now.
Too bad I didn't have a Singapore account before, they have some different Welcome Back games.

Did they change up the gameplay in that demo section? Because there isn't much to do.
