The demo makes it seem like a Tomb Raider clone with a terrible combat system. It's actually a
beautifully well-made Indiana Jones game with a surprisingly responsive combat system (sure the enemies can take a few hits - but there's a cheat unlocking one-hit kills a-la Goldeneye) speaking of which - seemingly endless amounts of awards/unlockables/achievements or whatnot.
Incredible cutscenes, a passable storyline - excellent physics, fairly unique levels as opposed to excessive repetition (F.E.A.R) and a fantastic arsenal.
Seriously, I hated the demo too - I found the combat to be the most offensive bit though, perhaps you didn't see
any potential. Then it really might not be your kind of game.
Personally, it's the finest single-player experience to be had on the format. Satisfying, fun and tongue-in-cheek all the way.
Sorry bout the derail - but that's one example of a demo gone horribly wrong.
