+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted August 6, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted August 6, 2009 Demo not up! PSN/EU it is. I dunno about PSN USA, their update is usually an hour or two later, but if you have an EU account you can just hop on that anyway. Xbox Live is tomorrow, discussed earlier, although I probably should of clarified my post again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrunknMunky Veteran Posted August 6, 2009 Author Veteran Share Posted August 6, 2009 I read another statement from SE earlier and the demo was supposed to go online tomorrow, but because of localization the demo is going to appear earlier in some places. One of them being PSN apparently. Grabbing this now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrunknMunky Veteran Posted August 6, 2009 Author Veteran Share Posted August 6, 2009 In my experience the shortest demos are always on PSN, but seeing as this is a demo for all systems I'm hoping I get a little more than that when it's 1.4GB (definitely the most annoying thing other than the speeds). 1.4GB is like one 6th or more of the size the original game when it's released on the 360. They should open up demos a little more for people to help decide on a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted August 6, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted August 6, 2009 It'll last about 10-15 mins (maybe 20 mins, I'm not sure), it's a "fair" demo, not generous, but not as lame as some. It's got some replayability as well. Took around an hour for me to download, my max speed is 400-420kb. Keeping my pre-order, it would be hard for me not to at ?23, but I'm not keeping it for the sake of it, I enjoyed the demo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WastedJoker Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Played Batman Demo through a couple of times :o Not convinced it is a 9/10 game because it appears a little bit simplistic although that could be simply how they've designed the demo to make it accessible. Combat feels very good - love how all the moves interlink whilst you can also string together combos :poundit: Detective mode is great and hope the detective collectibles will be fun :o Stealth is really good too - love how you can swing around and do glide kicks/inverted takedowns and that the environment plays a part (the last bit is a good example where you can drop down through the glass to take one of the guys out :o ). I imagine it'll only get better when you get more of Batman's equipment too. Graphics and sound are 8/10 but gameplay is 8.5/10 from the demo. I think I'm going to really enjoy it as long as it doesn't get repetitive - I hope they mix up good brutal freestyle combat with stealth and allow you to choose whether you wanna go brutal or stealthy. Can't wait for my Collector's Edition to arrive now 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait for my Collector's Edition to arrive now 8) Mostly in agreement with this. If I hadn't watched a video of somebody playing through this exact demo previously (if you have watched any footage of this game, the likelihood is you've watched the entire demo), I think I may have found it more fun. It was still enjoyable, but as I knew exactly what was coming, kind of ruined it. Plus, they haven't fixed Batman's cape going through his arms and such! (Must be a good game if the only complaint I have is a graphical thing with the cape, right?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unrealistic Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 (edited) holy crap! I haven't played the demo but after watching http://www.mtv.com/videos/news/424683/an-i...html#id=1617659 I am pumped to play this. As much as I love Heath, Mark does such an amazing job doing the Joker. Nostalgia cranked to 11 now. Audioboxer: How can you not enjoy Kevin Conroy doing Batman? I think maybe only one line felt a big forced, but if anyone is the voice of Batman, it is Kevin Conroy. He has been the voice of Batman since 1992. No other actor comes close into as many hours as him for the voice of Batman. Not even Adam West. Edited August 6, 2009 by Unrealistic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+BeLGaRaTh Subscriber¹ Posted August 6, 2009 Subscriber¹ Share Posted August 6, 2009 The only thing that is bothering me is that all the gamplay videos show exactly the same thing over and over again. As mentioned it could get boring very quickly. A one trick pony so to speak. But I withhold judgement until I try the demo and the final game is out.

sn00pie Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 It's a very fun demo. They've pulled off the Batman feeling quite well, the only thing I don't like is how you can pretty much beat your way through everything by pressing triangle and square. I will definitely be buying this game :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
