i thought the demo rocked. very cinematic until you need to beat the crap out of a guy with a wrench, condemned style. water effects were beautiful. this is going to be one of the first times for me in which a demo really makes me want to play more of a game. the end of it was kind of hard, but i was kind of expecting that.

Great demo. I can't wait to play more of it next week. Great graphics, gameplay and sound. This one may have it all.

This demo was incredible, definitely worth the wait for the time it takes to download. From the first time I got to control the character I was giddy like a schoolgirl. I must have spent what seems like forever just looking at the wet tile at the entrance to rapture looked just incredible. That was just the beginning stages. The game really goes out of its way to create atmosphere and it shows. Download it now if you haven't.

It took me like an hour plus to download it but it is definitely worth the wait. If you are afraid to leave your 360 on for that long you should enable the option to download while the 360 is off, I don't know however if this will affect the download speed.

I've tried all of that, and it still won't download. Sucks.

Game is a little dark (figuratively, not literally) for my taste, but the demo left me wanting more...Ill own this one.

The demo was amazing. . .

I can't wait to pick up this gem. The game is creepier than I thought it would be. At one point I was wandering down a hall and I turned around to find some crazed psycho lady just about to stab me in the back. Gave me quite the jump.

My favorite is when I was approaching the woman standing next to the revolver in the baby crib.

I took a risk and jumped her with the wrench. Good thing I did.
