The whole city is very detailed.  Although the draw distance is a bit weak, it is expected for such a detailed game.

Every car handles uniquly and each has its advantages and disadvantages.  

Some cars are slow (micra) and some are fast (lexus...).

On foot there are some problems with the camera which I hope will be fixed for the final build.

Ask some specific questions so I can answer better :)

The framerate seems to be surprisingly good when driving.  I have noticed no slowdown so far, which is a major plus point :)

Are the streets busy with lots of pedestrians, like the real London, and more importantly can you run them over!

Yes there are many more cars and pedestrians in the streets than you see in the screenshots, so it looks as though this problem has been resolved.

And yes.....you can run them over :D

As for weapons, I have only used the one you get to start with (pistol?).

When running people over no blood seems to come out of them straight away, I never really turned back to look.  (will have to do that soon)

When shooting people a nice blood stain appears on them as they slump to the ground :D

As a demo, how would you rate it?

Like, if you weren\'t hyped up about the game, got this today and played it.. would you now be interested in the game?

Definately!  

If I didnt know about this game before hand, I would enjoy the realism, the depth of London, nice cutscenes, great cars.  

:)
