Seemed alright for a while, but I haven't had a Blue Screen of Death for a long time which puts me off buying it quite a bit.

Nice idea for a game, though.

Anyone who finds this game scary should go seek out Miffy books. Come on!! What on Earth does this game do that countless others don't??

Slow motion was deeply underwhelming. I just don't think it's something that suits 1st person games that well. In Max Payne - when it was still new - it worked well because it was 3rd person and accompanied the action.

Maybe the full game will change my mind, but the demo was deeply disappointing.

This hardly seems like the most remarkable game ever. Choppy framerate for starters. Then there's the "marines going into random place for random reason" type story with the half-arsed "no, no, it's a horror" bit tagged on. ("No, no, seriously - there's a scary child! Really!!!)

Unexciting graphics, average gameplay, no obvious story, and poor performance. Not to mention the 600mb download!!!!

Having said that, enemies leaping through windows was quite cool, and the shadows were reasonably good. But that's about it. Otherwise desperately underwhelming. The reviews are going to have to be bloody good to persuade me on this one.

I really like the look of this. The demo is way too short to get a proper feeling for how it's going to work, but it's got a really unique feel to it. I think I may take a chance on this one.

Got to agree, this demo is terrible. I quite liked Agent Under Fire on the PS2, but this is pretty much unplayable. Might be OK if it wasn't so jerky/laggy but surely it should run ok on a 1.2ghz with all the settings down low..?

Even the main menu seems laggy! I was all set to buy this until, erm.. well until I loaded it.
