I didn't find it all that confusing, but I do think that the way it was presented really killed the impact of Aerith's death. Replaying the original FF7 earlier this year, and I still get emotional at that scene when it comes up, despite playing through the game many times over the years. But I was just completely untouched by it in Rebirth because of how poorly it was presented. It should have been more impactful with today's technology, but they found a way to make it less impactful in the end, which is...pretty astonishing.
Sonic multiplayer needs to be done with split screen. It's really the only way it can work in any meaningful way. The way games like Sonic 2 handled it was a fine diversion back in the day, but it never feels like true multiplayer Sonic. Just barely feeling more substantial than something like Super Mario Galaxy multiplayer with the other playing using the point to aid the "main" player.
Unfortunately, I was pretty let down by the demo. It runs really badly. In performance mode, the frame rate is all over the place. I've heard that the demo is an outdated build, so hopefully the final version will run better.

Glad I waited! I knew it would release on other platforms eventually.

Re: PlayStation Move Wins Popsci's "Best of What's New" Award
Ironically, Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition plays better than Resident Evil 5 Move Edition. And that came out years ago. : /
I will admit that Move is the better controller, but RE5 is a horrible example.
