    I hear you can't enable DX11 nor the highest settings in the demo, and it just begs the question... what's the point? Isn't the demo supposed to SELL us the game?

    Now I know I'm far more concerned over the derp factor in this game rather than the gfx, but it would still be nice to have the ability to max out the demo thus getting an actual representation of the final product.
