THEY DIDN'T REVERSE THE BUTTONS! ARGH!

I agree with Zombie on the page tearing, I do hope Capcom fix that shit, since it is pretty bad.

So wait, if this is the exactly same demo that Japan get few weeks ago... why do we get it so late?

Can't you tell? Because they hate us all so very much.
"Damn Westerners!"

Yeah, me and Gareth were playing earlier and I was getting really bad lag, like I could shoot a Majini in the face and it'd take 0.5 seconds for them to actually grab their face. Then when we were fighting the axe man, it said something about losing the connection. When Gareth was hosting a game too and I was trying to get in, someone else jumped in so we had to restart so I could get in. >.>

Were there such problems with the Japanese demo? Because now here and on NeoGAF lots of people complain about lags, lost connection etc and I don't remember so many complains when people were playing the Japanese version.

Hi, just a question i thought i would aak here, sorry if it has already been asked before
Doest he demo support headset communication, so you can talk with your partner and strategize?

[Alexia_Ashford]

On the 360 you can just start a party with whoever you want to play with. I'm not sure if the actual game itself supports you talking with any randomer who might join.

Hmm, but have you tried out the headset communication with anyone, it is implemented right

Well, this is lovely. I got my second RROD on Saturday night on the same console, so am just going to buy another one. Thank God I already played the Japan demo though, so this isn't too depressing. I am just happy this was only the demo's release, not the game's, when I got the RROD. I'll play when I get my new one, and then 3/13 when the game comes out. This is a major setback finacially, because $120 for RE 5 (Collector's Editon for 360 and Limited Edition Strategy Guide) and $200 for Arcade (I'm not going to buy an Elite because I already have a 120GB HD (Yay Christmas) and HDMI adapter, so jus want to be able to play again. I know I kind of went on a tangent but hey, it is still technically relevant. Happy Hunting those Majini's...

P.S. Until I get my new Xbox, I'm reliving the glory days by playing RE 4 again! "Whataya buyin'?!"

The Japanese demo was fun for the time that the 360 was in the place I resided. I never saw any problems, whether solo or playing offline co-op.

The online problems weird me out though. Weren't they implemented by Microsoft in the Japanese demo to stop people? I guess the corruption affecting the online game no matter where is the reprocussion for their meddling. Bastards.

Kewl, I rather play the PS3 demo tho. I wanna play with my online buddies.

How is it actually playing with the 360 controller? I feel like it would take A LOT longer to get used to than the PS3 controls, since most RE games have been on PlayStation consoles. I feel like the PlayStation controller is the only way to go when playing RE games.

You never played RE4 on Gamecube, or Remake or Zero, did you?

[aris13]

I've played the demo on the 360 and I didn't have a problem with the controls. I am actually worrying about the controls of PS3, sometimes I can't control the analog stick so well.
