    was playing the demo last night, not bad, some nice touches and lots of bits from the previous ones.

    Hopefully they will have an in-game save or something..the last tenchu drove me mad, sneaking around cutting heads off for ages, only to reach the boss, get killed in seconds and have to start the level again, pure misery..

    anybody played the full game yet ?

    Hmm demo had huge flaws. Tiny level (can be done in two minutes or so, easy), extremely mediocre graphics. Never played a Tenchu game before but this demo wouldnt exactly influence me too.

    That said, somersaulting out of the water was ninja-riffic.

    I thought it was rubbish. Dreadful graphics, some glaring bugs and gameplay that hasn't changed a bit since Tenchu 2. It really turned me off the game.

    One of the worst demos I've ever played. The graphics look like a bad PS2 game.

    Ive always liked the Tenchu games meself, found the controls "wonky" compared to the ps2 version, and I couldnt invert it, even in HD though I wasnt really impressed, id still like to see it online though....

    Is this the same as the one thats out in Japan since roughly launch?

    The demo was a pile of pooh ... The graphics were bland and average (in the tiny level I bumped into the same two bad guys a heap of times - or their identical twins).

    Not that graphics alone make a game, but they give a good impression of atmoshpere along with the sound. (I think AvP on the PC was one of the best examples of this - enter a room as a marine, and hear a facehugger crawling somewhere or hear a steam vent hiss behind you in the dark. That was a steam vent and not an Alien, right?) It adds an extra sense of involvement in the game and can make up for some slight flaws.

    Both the graphics and sound were very bland, unimaginative and dated.

    The fighting with the baddies was just 'hack-hack-slash ... run away ... hack-hack-slash'. Yawn.

    Really wouldn't recommend it.
