I'm about halfway done downloading it, but had to go to work so I won't be able to play it until tonight.  Post some impressions!

Yes, waking up to see a 360 demo is the equivalent of waking up to see a hot supermodel lying naked next to you, straddling you in her sleep, and possibly still cooing your name.

I have the game ordered through outpost.com.  I just hope they don't take too long to ship it.  But at least this demo will tide me over until it arrives in my mailbox.

I'm on a 10mbit line and for reasons xbl demos always take forever to download while i can get around 1MB/s without problems. It's at 38% now.

Like Vagabond said, it's like there's a hot supermodel in your bed... EXCEPT YOU HAVE TO GO TO WORK!   >:(

I refuse to download this demo.

Mainly because I need a fucking VGA switch box so I can play it on my monitor.

I'm just playing it with SVid, and it still looks amazing. . .fidelity is up there with Lost Planet.  No jaggies or anything.

fuck, work :(

I'm in the talks about tradeing my 27" Samsung HDTV for my sisters boyfriends Premium Xbox360...

Pray for this transaction to go through Evilbore!

Amazing, the game is really fun even if the demo is a bit limited. The zombies are more aggressive than expected, the controls are great, wow. I'm totally buying this

haha, okay.  I was hoping you weren't going to have to play on a twenty year old 19" Zenith or something.

the zombies are fucking smart wts. I hit one zombie in the back of a store and he ran after getting up and got more buddies cause i was baracading myself inside the closet. And the erotica is so fucking hard to get but i got two shots. that 58,000 zombie kills is so doable. I loved every second of playing the demo. Now i feel i spoiled it for myself though.

Oh and nothing beats putting masks on zombies and then calling other zombies to you and see what happens. If they are teddy bears the other zombies (ones without masks) will kill the masked zombies. And watch out for flying hands. I got a crap load thrown at me.

well, now for an alternate opinion...

i find it to be a pretty terrible game, frankly the only thing I've liked is the good pastiche of American storytelling by Capcom, but for the rest it really is boring

the novelty wears down fast, rendering the good controls and all the various methods to hit zombies completely useless -- it really reminds me of the hype surrounding State of Emergency, think of the time in 3-4 years where you won't be able to defend the fact that you liked Dead Rising folks

I was sure since months that it'd come to that: a mix of Resident Evil and State of Emergency with unfortunately, just a few cool aspects of the first and the mediocrity and redundancy of the second

and I know that tons of ennemies are rendered on screen at any time, but the pretty graphics in real-time cutscenes look like Xbox 1 graphics when you actually get to play, all the ennemies and environments are blocky, and there's sometimes slowdown when hitting ennemies -- while this is an impressive technical achievement, this sure isn't a pretty-looking game by any means

yeah I know, stop being so grumpy and all that jazz... :(

Looks pretty underwhelming from the demo m0rphix posted =/. But then again I just played some RE:4 and was hoping Dead Rising would be in similar vein..
