I do the same thing! In Exterminator, the Devil Bringer doesn't allow to you bring enemies to your position until the tutorial screen pops up to show you how to do it. I think that if I had it early on that the combat meter would've maintained higher level (my first time around I couldn't get further than "Carnage" until I got it) and I would've breezed through it in under ten minutes.
I recommend playing the Executioner mode instead; it's much more enjoyable.

Honestly, I don't think Capcom makes great demos. It was a poor presumption to suggest that if people released good demos, their games would sell. Capcom makes great PRODUCT. Because of that, their demos are just great, and they end up selling a crapton. Kudos to capcom for pushing next gen. The visuals are the most surprising thing to me. Some of the best lighting I've seen since gears of war.

Just gave the PS3 demo a shot. Played it with my DS3. As soon as you hit the start button there is this nice vroom rumble just to let you know it is there.
The game looks better than I expected. I guess it looks better in motion or something. That fight against Berial was amazing. Some of the best and intense graphics I have ever seen.
The animation for the main character Nero was a bit dissapointing though. It feels like character animation wise the game is only a small step up from the PS2 games. It feels too stiff and wooden. I guess it's just that the first game was just so amazing animation wise. In the sequel they just tried to keep the same rhythm and didn't redesign it for this next gen.
The button mashing is intense. I am afraid I will get carpal tunnel. I am not as young as I used to be...

so i played thru the 360 and ps3 versions.. 360 vga, ps3 hdmi.
i really couldn't tell the difference.
i didn't have issues with either controller.
no rumble felt weird though...
god damn, i have to go to work in 2 hours and didn't get any sleep, might have to take a 1 hour nap!

I'm part of the crowd that thinks Lost Planet is still in the top 3 games to have been released this gen. The product far surpassed the demo's quality to me. So much more good stuff in the final game. I don't care what anyone says. Multiplayer was also the best multiplayer I've played yet. Not just run around shooter, but complete with mechs, ziplining around, and other greatness. GAF and critics be damned, it's my opinion.

It's actually a odd demo, a fuckin-timer?
No trailer, no mention of how Dante (who makes Nero's combat look like a little bitches) is playable in at least half the game...
If the core mechanic wasn't as good as it was this would typically be a pretty poorly put together demo in terms of actually selling the game.
Not to mention there are like a billion attacks Capcom doesn't tell people how to do -- but I guess figuring it out is half the fun.

As someone who had to deal with putting G on RB for VF5 and consequently tape up my wrist, this is worth repeating. (I have my arcade stick now, though.)

R1+O = snatch
O (by itself) = slam and toss the little bitch around
Get used to doing this:
(in air) snatch an enemy off ground, then press O, then quickly snatch another (while you're still in the air) via R1+O, then slam another one (again, O by itself)
KEY:
R1 = Right Bumper
O = B
Y = /\ = triangle

The typical reaction is play the time limit mode (since it's defaulted on that) learn the basic mechanics, then switch to the boss fight mode. DIE...then DIE...then DIE again. Switch back to the time limit mode, get better. Then go back and kill the boss.

You're better off playing Executioner, dude. I have no desire to go back to Exterminator after having the opportunity to figure the combos without being stressed out because of the time limit. Plus, you get to bring enemies to you with the DB from the get go.
I'm impressed with the demo, even if some of the visuals looked a little dated. The water in the fountain looked naff and the cliffs surrounding the docks looked a little odd. Still, for an action game with a smooth as butter frame rate and no tearing insignificant details like that can be ignored. As mentioned the lighting is godly.
Oh, and people complaining about the right bumper - get over it. You're meant to be gamers with hands and fingers like double jointed spiders. Very smart, adaptable, gymnastic spiders.

just played through the PS3 demo, the boss fight was awesome... only complaints would be: too easy (duh, it's a demo and they want the game to sell) and some minor slowdown in cut-scenes, appart from that the game looks and runs very nice for a 60 fps game.
now downloading the 360 demo...

Indeed.
But Capcom obviously intended new - users to fuck with Extermination, learn the ropes on the easier enemies. Then switch to Executioner and never turn back.
LOL At Nero's taunt.
"May I have this dance..."
You can infinitely rev up as well.
Slash, (just-rev) Slash, (just-rev), Slash, (just-rev).
it's hard, and the frame openings decrease each time you do it.
during the cutscenes, press and hold right trigger / R2

360 version:
Slash = Y
Slash ~~ tap Left Trigger
Remember Final Fantasy 8? It's like that. gunblade-ish.
during the middle of the sword strike animation, tap Left Trigger to just-rev.
PS3 version:
Slash = /\
Slash ~~ tap L2
