Kingdom Under Fire, Circle of Doom : Shame

I ordered Kingdom Under Fire, Circle of Doom this morning and promptly cancelled my order after a number of messages from a Xbox Live friend. He had read these reviews:

"the gameplay leaves a lot to be desired" - Teambox
http://reviews.teamxbox.com/.../KingdomUnderFireCircleofDoom/

"The problem is that the actual act of playing it isn't very rewarding" - Gamespot

Shame as the idea is good, but the demo did the game no favours.
