this on the UK store?

Not too bad, demo 2 weeks running :eek:

think we will get ratchet next week to make it 3 weeks in a row?

I assume it is a single player demo?

Apparently the demo is poor compared to the 360 version (surprise surprise)

Vegas was a good port so surely they can't screw this one up.

It wasn't great though.

Some people on other furms are reporting that the demo doesn't work!

Logsi · 2 Aug 2007 at 17:47

I got an error then cancelled and re-downloaded.

Poor port im afraid!

360 version was better. It looks identical apart from the framerate dips.

Its ok if you havnt played the 360 version and i urge everyone who has a PS3 to get this if they havnt played the 360 version.

Heavenly Sword is going to rock!

I had to download it twice to get it too work.

Hopefully the full game will have its framerate sorted.

Well, without reading anyones comments prior to this so I don't know what's been said, but I'll no doubt have Edz and JBeck onto me again.

It's another poor port bringing a wide collection of poor problems once more. Hell, it's identical to The Darkness.

Shadow Errors
Blurry!
Aliased
Poor Framerate

A real shame as I enjoyed GRAW2 on the Xbox360, I thought it had an excellent story and one of the best game soundtracks of all time, but it also had some stunning visuals in Single Player and those were definitely lost from the Demo.

Couldn't agree more. Dissapointing showing with this demo. I think they have went from no motion blur(vegas) to overkill. Frame-rate issues very apparent.

Hopefully in time they will start doing the PS3 version and porting to the 360, i was looking forward to this, but it looks like another pass from the sounds of things.

I don't hope so, the games are currently running well on the Xbox360

. I'd rather play any 2 format release on the Xbox360 because of the controller.

IF they can make them on PS3 and then make them run just as well on the Xbox360 I'm all for that.

Don't be such a drama queen, I care not for GRAW 2.

Nope I totally agree with you, it's horrible compared to the 360 version.

Although I can't comment on The Darkness as I've never played the 360 version I did play the GRAW2 demo and this is poor, very poor in comparison.

I noticed the lack of any AA in The Darkness but didn't care too much as I didn't rate the game anyway, and the fact that it was pretty much out at the same time but there really isn't any excuse for GRAW, and I'm not impressed

It looks like the only decent console out atm is the Wii, at least Nintendo know what their doing...

BTW: Lair has now been delayed in the States, surprise surprise.
