Yeah! I need to try the demo!
There is no demo, nor have I heard any news that there will be. However, a common tactic that developers use these days is to release a demo a few weeks after the game has been released, just to give sales that little boost, so it is possible you'll eventually see one.
Either way I'm not bothered, had the game for two weeks, completed it three times and enjoyed every minute of it. It's well worth buying if you don't let that fact that it's pretty short get to you.

cipro, what system are you running, and how good is it visually, as in framerate, quality etc.
Well Cipro you already know my story, I can't just buy it because everyone else says it good, especially since I didn't like number one. So a demo would really help.

I'm running it well above the recommended system specs, I have:
Pentium 4 2.8 GHZ
512MB RAM
Redeon 9600 PRO
Well above the recommended specs, no slowdown at all with all the details turned up. Graphics look great, character models are excellent although environments haven't changed much from the original. It's not as power hungry game and while it isn't the best looking it's still very much a visual feast, at least where lighting, animation and other slight but great looking effects are concerned.

If you didn't like the 1st one, don't get the 2nd. It's more of the same, with nicer graphics, better slo-motion effects and a continuation of the story.
If you liked Max Payne, you'll love the 2nd.
If you didn't like Max Payne, you'll not like this one either.
Personally I think the Max Payne games are top fun, they give me what I want sometimes - leap in and shoot action that doesn't require tactics, thought or planning.
Just shoot lots and lots people in a very stylised and funky way.
I'm replaying it through for the 3rd time now, as well as Call of Duty.
Excellent games.

that's a bit harsh :)
I loved mp1, and would buy the second, but my pc predates stainless steel, and is therefore a rusty old heap.
perhaps some 0% finance action could be in order.
