I have to admit, this game LOOKS cool.  How it PLAYS remains to be seen.

I'll probably check out the demo later today.

So apparently I accidentally purchased this when I thought I was just getting the demo.  This has happened to me a few times before.

Anyways, its not terrible and its not great.  A reasonably solid action game with over-top-gore and a pretty decent combo system.  The lack of enemy lock-on is kind of annoying but I really dig it's visual style.

It also assigns a score and rank to every encounter in each level that you can compare to your friends who also have the game.

Seems good enough that I'll slog through it.
