If anybody is curious about the game, I did get a chance to play the demo not too long ago.
The story is delightful, and the environment is very creepy just like the first game. The gore is amped up in this one and this is not for the squeamish AT ALL. Gameplay is very satsifactory and I had no problem figuring out what to do and was able to clear the 3-4 mini-levels in about an hour of play. Game length would suggest probably in the 8-10 hour range depending on how good you are.
Hopefully I will have it in my hands really soon. I am still playing plenty of Skyrim but will give this title 110% and provide a worthy review.
