I loved the demo and have played it God knows how many times.
I love the control, the creepiness, the graphics, the physics, the AI, the ragdoll effects, the slow mo, everything.
The 360 version has an extra mission and the arena-like mode called "Instant Action"...IGN Description:
The Instant Action mode puts you into pure combat situations in environments drawn from various parts of the campaign mode and scores you on a variety of factors including enemies killed, health packs in your inventory and accuracy. At the end, you can post your score on the Xbox Live Leaderboards to see just how well you stack up against the world. Separate scoreboards exist for each difficulty level and can be sorted to see who has posted the best score in the past week as well as all time. This mode is pure fun and great for seeing how the AI will react differently depending upon how you approach a situation.
Oh, and again, the AI is fantastic.
Get it. Best FPS available right now.
Better than both Resistance and Halo 3, yup
It got a super fantastic 9.1 over at IGN
Movies and pictures.
