ARGH why release it NOW im about to go bed cause i got college...wait...i shall leave my mighty compootay on, and my xbox 360 lol on, has the 360 got auto off function like the old one had?!

I know what you mean mate, it's weird. I checked the Dashboard earlier this evening, and didn't see anything, so I jumped on GRAW. Completed the game on Hard, and came back to the dash, and 3 of my bud's had left me to go and play Billiards Cut-throat. So in my boredom, I went to check the dash again and it MUST have just that moment gone up... Quite funny, they all quickly quit playing billiards! :laugh:

Only annoying thing now, is it's so late, I really gotta goto bed really... :no:

The demo is awesome guys!

The only thing that bugged me was the shadows are covered in jaggies. Is this because it's ported or is it like this on pc/xbox?

I've never played BF before but damn it's fun. Might have to consider buying this game now :woot:

The controls feel weird though. They're somewhat different to BF2:MC for Xbox... Going to take a while to adjust. It looks like being probably the game i'll spend most of my MP time, PlainLazy, it is alot of fun. Single Player, IMO is boring as hell, but MP is quality...

Yeah I've heard lots of people say that SP is boring but you'll play MP the most anyways. It's what I did with Halo 2. Once I completed the campaign I rarely ever played it again because of MP.

I think I'm going to read up on a few reviews of BF:MC2 tomorrow. Get a better idea of the rest of the game before buying it though.. I have other games to play in the mean time so I might hold out a bit on it.

I can see this demo being played a lot of easter :D

I will without a doubt be buying BF2 for the 360.

I think they did an excellent job of taking the same overall premise, but making it work on a console.

It is definitely a dumbed down version of the PC game, but as I said for a console it works amazingly well. Much, much better than I thought it would honestly. I am honestly extremely pleasantly surprised.

My one and only gripe is that everything moves so quickly. I never realized how much of a strategic factor choosing when you sprint really was until I just played this. Sprint appears to be the default movement. you always move fast, so as a result it is much more fast paced than it's PC counterpart. I prefer this was not the case, but I do understand since it is on a console why they decided to go this route.

It will by no means replace BF2 for me on the computer, but it will definitely be a game I will play now and then while sitting on my couch.

I admit that maybe it is because I love BF2 for the PC so much and I am therefore extremely biased, but I really think this is perhaps the best overall MP game I have played on a console as far as being well rounded with the both the vehicle and on foot game play.

Much better than I thought it would be. I also had very low expectations as well. I just could not imagine how they were going to translate the same overall idea from the PC to the console, but they appeared to have done a pretty damn good job of it all.

Graphics are actually really damn impressive as well, especially considering it is an 24 player online game.

Again, I will without a doubt be buying BF2 for the 360.

      Really? Despite the memory price rises, nothing can kill it? I thought something would.

    • Poll: Grand Theft Auto VI price predictions, cast your vote

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Poll: Grand Theft Auto VI price predictions, cast your vote by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe After years of waiting, Rockstar will be solidifying the launch date of Grand Theft Auto VI with the launch of pre-orders next week. While the studio has confirmed a date for this occasion, it is yet to attach a price to the highly anticipated game. So let's see what our readers think it will cost at launch. The Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders will kick off on June 25 for digital and physical editions. Unless some last-minute changes happen, the release date will be November 19, 2026, across Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. Unfortunately, there's still no information about a PC version from the developer or the publisher Take-Two. Now the question becomes, how much will Grand Theft Auto VI cost at launch? The game is predicted by some analysts to be the biggest launch of an entertainment product ever. With the amount of hype that has been built behind it and with ballooning development costs, Take-Two may price this Grand Theft Auto entry differently from other AAA titles. The current price of a AAA game is $69.99. That norm almost rose to $79.99 before calming down. But with such a massive release, Grand Theft Auto VI may be the game that pushes the boundary again. It's also possible that Take-Two keeps the price relatively low to increase the number of players that jump in early and keep them hooked on Grand Theft Auto Online to spend on microtransactions for years to come. Keep in mind that the below poll is asking for a prediction of the standard edition price, not a deluxe or any other special edition that Take-Two will introduce for additional benefits. Also, there is the chance of the company splitting up the campaign and online portions. If you think that will happen, put your vote on what you think will be the total cost of the two. Poll Poll: How much will Grand Theft Auto VI cost? $59.99 $69.99 $79.99 $89.99 $100 or more Submit Vote If you have a very specific prediction in mind, sound off in the comments below.
