Got the demo yesterday for 360 and played for a few hours last night and was blown away.
Graphics seem to be improved over the original, not sure if it is the lighting or character models (or both) but it looks fantastic on my little tv.
The daylight setting is very unnerving, completely lulled me into a false sense of security at one point which ended in a brutal trap set up by a Jockey and Boomer - the AI has a nasty habit of timing it's attacks with the special infected, often pulling the team apart at just the "wrong" moment and then keeping us from rejoining with standard infected.
Really did feel like there was some kind of higher intelligence messing with us!
The new weapons sound brilliant - just wait till you try the frying pan or try to guitar bash a Tank!
A mention must also go to the event music in the game, really up's the ante and tension in places, but also keeps it sinister and silent to unnerve the team. Very impressed all round with the improvements tbh.
I won't spoil it to much but safe to say I can't wait for the final game now. :)
