A step back is not going to reassemble the physical world. Boxes that were 100% BEHIND the wall are now mostly in view, he would have to walk a couple feet to the right to accomplish that. Try just hitting the aim button a couple times real quick without letting him get all the way into position, you'll notice all he does is raise his arms without actually going anywhere.

I hope it doesn't, because this POV glitch works a lot better than the cover system they programmed.

i just found that wall, and yeah it seems to pull a little moses on us. I wouldnt have noticed if you hadnt pointed it out, and its in no way game breaking.

I thought it was a pretty good demo, but it's not making me want to run out and purchase day one like other games I've played. Definitely a by tho.

It's not just that wall, you can do it anywhere on everything. It's the entire game that does it.

i didnt say it was JUST that wall, what i ment by it is i found the wall you were showing and saw what you ment. he does seem to take a step back and move to the side a bit, but yeah not enough to do what its doing.

Whats wrong with the cover system though? i hear complaints about it but from what i see it works jsut fine

for J2D and any other non US peoples:

the demo has been updated, works in all regions.

It's just not very good. You're safe while behind it but there's very little offensive options since the game doesn't remember your aiming plus the precision needed means that you can't pop out and fire immediately. It's so much more effective to walk around behind cover while aiming instead of attaching yourself to walls that I don't see why anyone would ever use it. GoW didn't have those issues thanks to a larger reticule spread, aim memory, and you could still aim to some extent while hiding. I mean, it's nice that Uncharted has cover and all but it's very tacked on and unfinished.

I think the game needs a couple more months of work to be amazing. It's pretty good right now, the demo makes me feel it'll be a solid 8/10 overall, but with a little more effort it could be something really special. But there's always the sequel, right? And who knows, maybe there's more stuff in the full game I don't know about yet that's awesome and makes me love it to death.

Finally tried out the demo...I think this will be my 2nd PS3 game. :D

well yeah like you said its just that level, there will be more things to cover around maybe itll prove itself useful in different situations. I dunno about TACKED ON cover system but it works fine for me popping from one cover to the other, over, ect.

I personally feel it works great, i can pop out and cover somewhere else, and i REALLY love that you can climb on walls and shoot over them. I personally cant wait, lets see how gold release compares.

The game felt fun and looks promising. A lot of it felt like Tomb Raider: anniversary in regards the environmental puzzles of figuring out where to go.

The real question is if this will be fun stretched out over an entire game. I for one hope that the full retail release is a little more varied in the gameplay department.
