Its also cool that there is online coop play on the demo and it works surprisingly well. Your thoughts? -------------------- Home of Return to Paper Mario World Co-Director of NCFC 2009

did you try changing the controls (specifically to RE4 style with inverted Y-Axis)

because the default one is horse ****

I wish you could strafe while aiming though like in Uncharted or Gears of war instead of sticking to their basic formula they've been using since the series beginning. -------------------- Home of Return to Paper Mario World Co-Director of NCFC 2009

I'm not talking about the controls, I'm talking about the combat system overall.
They took something that worked quite well (RE4) and made it ****.

My main problem? Real time weapon switching. This wouldn't be so bad, except for the fact that it still makes you select it with A, and then choose between equip and unequip.
This can take a full second, and considering there were a large amount of things attempting to chow down on my face, it didn't work.
Nothing worked, it was awful.

you can use the D-Pad for quick-select, depending on where the item is on the inventory

That makes sense.
Still, even though that was one of the things I really hated specifically, the whole combat system felt clunky.
