[OFFICIAL] Xbox Live Latest Demos

I just moved Lego Star Wars up on my GameFly queue thanks to the Demo.

It is nothing but mindless fun. It has a hilarious sense of humor to itself. Really just good old fashioned gaming fun.

(Y) Good choice. I've been having lots of fun with that one.

I'm kinda disappointed that I beat the Sonic demo quicker than it took to download - and my download speed wasn't bad at all. Took me two tries. The second try I beat it in under 3 minutes... :(

Considering Sonic is all about speed, I don't see why that's so odd. :p

I had to turn the Sonic Demo off, or I was about to lose a Controller, it was the most frustrating game I perhaps ever played, the controls were just really awkward. I am sure over time one could get used to them, but I was losing my mind just going over the edge and not meaning to.

^ i felt exactly the same, the camera movement isnt very good and it just felt awkward trying to play and falling off the edge all the time.^

:yes: For a fast paced game, the camera sure is damn slow

Hint: Pull the left trigger to re-center the camera behind Sonic

yea, sonic demo is terrible

why is the horizontal axis inverted on the camera? AND WHY ISN'T THERE AN OPTION TO CHANGE THAT!?

I'm sorry, In my world, pulling the controller to the left should make the camera angle to go the left, not right.

seriously.....

Your kidding me, there is not an option to change that? It bothered the hell out of me as well, but I turned the demo off before I tried changing it, but I am blown away there is no option to fix that... :no:

as far as i could tell no....Wow, someone really should have put just a little more "care" into this demo. But then again, we're talking about SEGA here.

:no:

Yep as you said, not surpirising at all really.

BTW, Totally of topic, but I played some Joust last night and see youa also own it as you were on my Friends leaderboad list. It took me like two hours to get my High Score, which was like 56 grand or something... for such an simple gameplay concept it is incredibly hard. :rofl:

Yeah, I got frustrated with the Sonic demo the first time through, but the second time I only fell off twice and it was quickly over with. You just have to time your homing attacks right and it becomes pretty easy. I didn't even touch the camera controls.

By the way Doom is available on XBLA. I'm surprised nobody has mentioned it yet.

Edit: Meh. That demo is even shorter than Sonic. Online multiplayer sounds interesting, though.

The Doom is classic Doom Deathmatch. Nothing less. Nothing more. 4 players, and I absolutely loved it playing it, really brings it all back. :yes:

Well just played the demo and i am very disappointed. I was hoping the new grapple system would be fun but to pull a move off is real a task and the computer seems to counter everything. The game itself seems like it could have been good if it kept the same grapple system.

30 minutes ago i woulda said i was buying this, but after playing the demo i am now thinking maybe i shouldn't. November has alot of good games out (Gears of War, Sonic) so it isn't like i won't have anything to play.

the new grapple system is quite odd, I have not as of yet discovered how to pick the opponent up from the mat, usually helps for doing finishers. I also only found out how to irish whip by accident.

I will still buy the game as xbox has needed a decent wwe game ever since the abomination's they unleashed on us box fans in the past

    • Looks like the 7.1 is fake effects, can it at least do real 5.1? It says 'virtual 7.1' in all descriptions.
    • You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?
