DirtyLarry Veteran Posted September 24, 2006 Veteran Share Posted September 24, 2006 You have to play it with 3 friends, it's not much fun otherwise. It's the ultimate party game. Well I checked it out, and playing the game alone is basically pointless, however I can see the game being an insane amount of fun with 4 players at once, no doubt about it. I am actually really surprised I never heard of it until now. I am guessing FF2 is going to fully support online play, correct? If I can play it with 3 of my friends and/or whomever might be online, and it is not a full $60 dollar game, I will strongly consider it for sure. :yes: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/432213-official-xbox-live-latest-demos/page/30/#findComment-587906100 Share on other sites More sharing options...
magik Posted September 24, 2006 Author Share Posted September 24, 2006 Yea, if it's $40 (or less) I'm definitely getting it. Great party game, I must say! :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/432213-official-xbox-live-latest-demos/page/30/#findComment-587906273 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnast Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 I'm wondering if it's online-enabled, too (I have a feeling it isn't). That would be a big plus. I've been waiting for a game I could hop on and off with other Neowinians without taking the game too seriously. I just hope MS understands that this shouldn't be a full-priced game or else it won't take off at all.

Lingwo Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Bringing it Home: Day 6 Todays demo is F.E.A.R. i assume it is the same one that was on the OXM demo disc. Rumours say that Sonic the Hedgehog demo is due to appear in the bringing it home event.

dnast Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 That'd be nice to try Sonic out before getting tempted to spend any money on it. I was hoping EA would release an NBA Live 07 demo by now. I want to give the game a chance, but I'm not ready to give up my current GameFly games just yet.

DirtyLarry Veteran Posted September 25, 2006 Veteran Share Posted September 25, 2006 Downloading the FEAR Demo right now. Since I have already played it, it is just out of curiosity on how it runs on the 360 compared to my PC, because my PC definitely struggled in certain situations. EDIT - Played FEAR - Really surprised to see some animations so, just not good. The kicking animation has missing textures... sliding down ladders is all wrong and choppy... Overall the visuals look pretty damn good though, and it is running better than my PC ever did. Like I said I am just surprised to see those two things not tweaked at all... Also making leaning left and right on the D Pad just does not feel right to me, but overall I think FEAR is a very good port. Also dnast I am with you in regards to I was really hoping a demo of NBA Live 07 would be out by now. My reason is just slightly different though... I am positive I am getting one of the two basketball games, and pretty sure I am going with NBA 2K7 from playing the demo and reading the reviews, but I would just like to try NBA Live 07 before definitely making a decision. I have not personally owned a NBA Live for the console since 2003 though, but I am willing to give this years version a chance. For whatever basketball game I get, I am just going to use the Keep It Now option through GameFly though, that is how I buy most of my games I own. Save around $15 right from the start, and I have 20 Gamefly credits as well. But so just like you I am not ready to give up my current GF games just yet... as surprising as it is I am having fun with The Godfather.

.KICK Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 My Xbox Live latest demo is messed up, dunno if it is for others, shows up 2 Fear with different name for each. It says Bringing It Home twice, one for Fear and one for Fusion Frenzy. Shows up both NBA and NHL 2K7 but shows up NBA 2K7 next to both of them on ther right.

dnast Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 I just played Fear and though that in my opinion was pretty poor I haven't played the one on the Marketplace, but I'm assuming it's the same version I played about a month ago on the OXM disc. I didn't like it much, either. I honestly didn't give it much of a chance - I probably played it for 15 to 20 minutes - but I guess that goes to show how interesting the game was to me. Keep in mind I'm not the type who plays as many FPSs as all the other genres combined. It may be different for others, but I can only take so much.

NeoTrunks Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 Check out the Japanese Marketplace for a demo of Tenchu Senran. It's pretty nice for what it is. It's gone back to the mechanics of Tenchu 2, which I happened to love. I hated that Tenchu: Wrath of Heaven seemed to feel dumbed down after Tenchu 2.

myNando Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 I know this is super obvious but I LOVE the fact that I can download demos on my 360! I had like 6 demos queued up last night and I was like "I LOVE THIS!" :punk: I'm really grateful for this cool feature! I played the demo of Fuzion Frenzy 2 last night and this is gonna be a real cool party game. I used to go to one of my best friend's house and play Mario Party with a bunch of other friends and had a blast. I'm not friends with that person anymore but I still hang out with my other friends and we can now have another party game for us to keep on blasting! :woot: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/432213-official-xbox-live-latest-demos/page/30/#findComment-587911947 Share on other sites More sharing options...
