DirtyLarry Veteran Posted September 27, 2006 Veteran Share Posted September 27, 2006 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.

Lingwo Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Just grabbing it now. Not bad it only took 8 days before Bringing it Home finally had something good worth downloading :p Here's hoping a Tenchu english demo appears :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/432213-official-xbox-live-latest-demos/page/31/#findComment-587912930 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnast Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 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... :( Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/432213-official-xbox-live-latest-demos/page/31/#findComment-587913691 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtyLarry Veteran Posted September 27, 2006 Veteran Share Posted September 27, 2006 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.

sharpy2k4 Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 ^ 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.^ Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/432213-official-xbox-live-latest-demos/page/31/#findComment-587913851 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meshuggah Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 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?

Meshuggah Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 as far as i could tell no....Wow, someone really should have put just a little more "care" into this demo.

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: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/432213-official-xbox-live-latest-demos/page/31/#findComment-587914240 Share on other sites More sharing options...

RGSPro Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Sega shouldn't try to pull Sonic out of the 2D realm. For some reason, its just at home as a side scroller, especially for moving that fast. Sonic Rush was awesome on the DS. This demo was so so... Also, where is the PGR4 trailer?

dnast Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 (edited) 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.

Meshuggah Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 DL: yes, it's hella hard...... RGS: I really agree, I owned practically ever console Sega made, and boy, during the 2d age, they were AWESOME. Now.....not so much.

Lingwo Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 I am very suprised that the WWE Raw Vs Smackdown 2007 demo appeared on Marketplace. It is quite big, it weighs in at 1.06GB Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/432213-official-xbox-live-latest-demos/page/31/#findComment-587915897 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lingwo Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 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.

-T- Member Posted September 28, 2006 Member Share Posted September 28, 2006 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 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/432213-official-xbox-live-latest-demos/page/31/#findComment-587916379 Share on other sites More sharing options...
