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:

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.

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.

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.

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.

Same here with FEAR. I just chose one of them and when it finished downloading both were checked off.

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.

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.

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:

Ok, this is off-topic but i sort of forgot to pay for my xbox live gold account so it's disabled but shouldn't i still be able to acces marketplace and download demos? I can't even log in to my account.

your account is now Silver, and yes... you can still download everything you want from the XBLMP, odd thing is you can't log into your account, you should call TS and ask about it. :happy: :yes:

      Exactly. They won't go 100 because current gen consoles are simply too old for any groundbreaking graphics or gaming experience otherwise. They will go with standard (console) price 70 or go with 80 if they really want to go premium. Of course they will have more expensive options too with some useless cosmetics as always.
    • The Light of Life? We actually do glow till our Death, study finds

      Doesn’t surprise me at all. God is light & He gave us life so it sounds almost logical that we would therefore emit a certain amount of light.

    • Motrix Next 3.9.6

      By Copernic · Posted

      Motrix Next 3.9.6 by Razvan Serea Motrix Next is a modern, open-source cross-platform download manager built as the official next-generation successor to the original Motrix project. It has been completely rewritten using Tauri 2, Vue 3, TypeScript, and Rust, while still relying on the powerful Aria2 download engine for high-speed multi-protocol transfers. The app supports HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, BitTorrent, ED2K and magnet links, offering advanced features like multi-connection acceleration, task scheduling, bandwidth control, and batch download management. With a significantly reduced install size (around 20MB), it focuses on being lightweight, fast, and resource-efficient compared to traditional Electron-based download tools. Designed for Windows, macOS, and Linux, Motrix Next delivers a clean, modern UI inspired by Material Design 3 principles, with smooth animations and a minimal workflow. It improves usability through better download organization, system tray integration, and enhanced torrent handling including selective file downloads and tracker management. Motrix Next features: Multi-protocol downloads — HTTP, FTP, BitTorrent, Magnet, .torrent, ED2K, and Metalink tasks BitTorrent — Selective file download, DHT, peer exchange, encryption controls, metadata caching, GeoIP peer flags, and tracker probing Browser extension integration — Embedded Extension API with independent authentication, download confirmation, smart auto-submit, filename hints, referer/cookie forwarding, and real-time controls (Chrome Web Store · Edge Add-ons) Safe filename handling — Content-Disposition, RFC 2047, non-UTF-8, percent-encoded, and extensionless URL resolution with path traversal sanitization Download organization — Favorite and recent folders, optional file-type categorization, stale-record cleanup, and completed history backed by SQLite Concurrent downloads — Independent controls for active tasks, HTTP connections per server, segments per file, and BT peer limits Speed control — Global and per-task upload/download limits with day-of-week and time-of-day scheduling System integration — Tray operation, optional tray speed display, macOS Dock badge/progress, protocol handlers for magnet://, thunder://, and motrixnext:// Lightweight mode — Destroys the WebView on minimize-to-tray while Rust keeps the engine, task monitor, notifications, history, and extension routing alive Notifications and power options — Native task start/complete/failure notifications, keep-awake during downloads, and optional shutdown after completion Network controls — Scoped proxy support for downloads, app updates, and tracker updates, plus system proxy detection Auto-update channels — Stable, Beta, and Latest Across Channels policies with separate download and install phases Diagnostics — Structured logs, exportable diagnostic ZIPs, database integrity checks, automatic DB rebuild, and Linux GPU rendering fallback Personalization — Light/dark/system theme, 10 color schemes, 26 languages, and first-launch system language detection Motrix Next 3.9.6 changelog: New Features Clipboard management — App-owned copy actions no longer trigger the Add Task auto-detect popup. aria2 input compatibility — Multi-line aria2-style task input is supported for URLs with per-task options such as out=. BitTorrent IPv6 DHT — Added IPv6 DHT support and related configuration. File category URL patterns — File category rules can match URL patterns with validation and localized hints. Task status tags — Added clearer waiting and sharing states for task cards. Download event bridge — Added an aria2 WebSocket event bridge for faster download notifications. Improvements Improved task list transitions and preserved task state during tab switches. Kept RPC origin access enabled for local integrations. Restored AppImage stripping in release builds after beta validation. Added localized preference guidance across supported languages.
