Finally got around to playing the demo... Only took about 15 minutes to run through it though.

Knife now no longer has durability as it's unbreakable. This is a good thing considering how much more action is in RE3 than RE2.

The new dodge mechanics work nicely for jumping back while firing at zombies in a narrow hall way, but I had mixed results with using it during close combat often resulting in getting bitten trying to utilize the dodge to run past the zombie.

Zombies still take several bullets to the head sometimes. I found myself shooting zombies 3-4 times in the head with the pistol before they go down sometimes. Though sometimes a single shot will do a headshot. However using the shotgun a single shot to the chest would take the zombie out for good. So the shotgun will definitely be my best friend as usual in RE games, provided we maintain enough ammo of course.

Graphics look as great as ever.

Nemesis is still far more terrifying than Mr. X or Jack ever thought about being. Also I threw everything I had at him: two grendades, 3 shotgun blasts, and about 30 rounds from the handgun and nothing seemed to faze him. Luckily it was close to the end of the demo and I was able to run back around and to the place I needed to go with him right on my tail and the demo ended. Otherwise I'm not sure what I'd have done.

Honestly based on the demo alone... I can already say that 2 is more my jam and overall going to be better received than 3. RE fans generally prefer the slower horror aspect over the balls to the wall action but oh boy running from Nemesis for a large part of the game is going to be terrorfyingly frustrating I bet.

I doubt I'll get through RE3 nearly as quickly as I did RE2 though... and I'm really hoping they go on to remake Code Veronica and some of the other side-games now that 2 & 3 are done.

So I tried the Demo and really liked RE3 so I bough the Full Game.  It was pretty good overall.  The graphics were much better than the original, but I did find the game to be rather short compared to other RE games in the past.  The Nemesis kept killing me in the beginning, but then i started to learn his limitations and it become easier.  I keep seeing these MODS online where you can turn the Nemesis into Shrek or a Dinosaur.  They look pretty funny but i have not tried any of them yet.  Not exactly sure how to do it anyway.  Overall its good and you should support the developers so we can get some more RE games in the future.  Cool thanks.
