and now this is pt. 2 which i'll go into more detail.
First off, the demo was only 1 mode - Challenge mode. Since the game isn't fully finished there were a little bugs in the graphics. That will get polished when it is done. The demo was only for PS3 (i'm looking fwd to the xbox demo). A friend and manager of gamestop told me they just got the demo in and I ran strait to it.
The fighting system is the main thing i was most impressed by. 1 button is worth a thousand words... errr ass kicking more like it. Its amazing how just the press of 1 button can do so much. They made it very simple and very enjoyable. Its never the same punch/kick either and its how you use the controller. Once you get the hang of it you can stack up a huge combo just using that 1 button and knowing how to move correctly. There is another button which is just amazing, the counter attack button, it is flawless. With that then pressing the normal attack button you can do so much. The fighting is really fast pace and nonstop so you have to keep on your toes and always remember to use your counter strike because you'll be facing against groups of bad guys and they all attack you from all sides. Again its all how you move in the game.
Its kind of hard to explain.
Lets say this bad guy comes up from behind and tries to kick you, press the counter button, you'll grab his leg turn around and back fist him (it varies) then throw him, you then, while in the same motion, can more to another guy and then hit him, and you can do this nonstop till they are all down. It sound easy enough but you can get in trouble if you aren't paying attention to guys around you. anytime your moving around someone can come up behind, side etc.. and get you.
This is the most exciting game i've ever played. I'm impressed how well this turned out. Again i don't know how the full game plays but the Challenge mode is amazing. BTW this mode is you in a prison block area fighting groups of guys (each time getting larger and smarter even weapons as you go)
You don't fight against any named villains, i'm very curios how the fighting them would be like.
There is also different modes you can select that allow you to see differently. I didn't play around with that to much, but one mode is a x-ray mode you can pin point the person's bone while attacking.
and of course you can throw your bat stars etc.. i didn't play with that to much either. I was to busy melee fighting, that's just how awesome it is, you forget about everything else lol
