Biohazard 0 Impressions

All right, one more impressions thread from me this evening and I think I'll make this one short. I played throught the Biohazard 0 Trial version after work and I thought I might let everyone know what I got out of it. First of all I believe this demo is the same Demo seen at E3, it's just based on the Train, and it is incredibly short. You start out with your two characters Billy and Rebecca seperated, and after solving a few puzzles you get them back together. From there you explore more of the train, and eventually arrive at a boss battle, which is where the demo ends. It's really short, about 15-20 minutes the first time through (with some moments stuck due to lack of knowledge of Kanji) and after that you could probably play through it in under 10 minutes, possibly as low as 5. Graphically Biohazard 0 looks excellent. For those of you worried about it looking like an upgrade 64 game, don't worry anymore. It actually looks just a tad bit better then the RE remake. The one area that it really shows up the RE remake though, is in the lighting and shadows. Shadows flow realistically from people, and some of the lighting effects, such as the rain storm and the flashing of lights as the train passes are incredible. Personally I am definately looking forward to getting my hands on the final version of this game.
