Apparently, you only get the time limit on the Crackdown demo once you have levelled up something twice. If you don't level up you don't get a timer. I can't verify that though as i'm still waiting for the thing to download.

Definitely picking up Crackdown.

It seems like it will be a great time killer, and I am already hooked on jumping from Rooftop to Rooftop.

Most of the time I spent I was collecting Agility Orbs, did two of the missions as well, and I had more than enough fun.

Probably will go preorder it sometime this week.

I'm not too sure about Crackdown to be honest. I've never been a great fan of sandbox games and I always get pretty bored of them in the end. I want to like Crackdown though so I can justify the price and Halo 3 beta :p I have it on preorder for now and decide once I play some more.

There is no doubt the game looks fantastic though and I can see the appeal it has, it just doesn't hold my attention very long :/

I liked the demo, except the time limit thing. They could have just limitted how much you could increase your strength. I didnt even try any of the missions, i just had fun jumping on stuff. I got 50 or so of those agility things, i could have gotten more but i didnt realize what they did until i got the 30 minute warning. I was able to jump 25ft and throw 1,000lb or something like that.

hmm i really like battlestations midway, but im getting stupid lag whenever i play the demo, i dont know if its cause its a demo, a crap host or a problem at my end,

im on 2mb, have my 360 connected to my pc and connection is bridged, then my computer wirelessly connected to router, the lag is stupid, like not 5 seconds, it seems like minutes! ill be there in my battleship and i always test to see if there is lag, by using the AA guns in the water, once i did it, and nothing happened for 5 minutes...

i just cant seem to have any more fun with this demo!!!

Ok,

I had a quick play with the demo. So far first impression is it looks similar to GRAW, but then you start to notice the tweaks and enhancements.

For example the Droid to scan areas, is now manually controlled when you scan, and you see an top down view of the map, and you move the droid around to scan what you want to see etc. Pretty cool.

All in all it looks very polished, and i like it so far.

    • DWARF mini review: the world's smallest smart telescope for night and day sky captures

      Are they marketed as an entry into astronomy or astrophotography? I do astrophotography. With big rigs, lots of computers, cables and headaches. I love it. And by learning this ridiculously complex hobby, I’ve learned about the objects I’m shooting. Astronomy followed from photography.
    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows by Usama Jawad A couple of days ago, we reported that the latest Patch Tuesday update has seemingly resulted in a lot of issues for many users, including OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, and BSODs. Although Microsoft is yet to acknowledge these bugs, it has confirmed another, relatively smaller issue across all supported versions of Windows. In an update on its Windows Release Health Dashboard, Microsoft has confirmed that after installing June's Patch Tuesday update (KB5094126), you'll experience unexpected behavior when leveraging Recycle Bin. Basically, when you attempt to delete an item from the Recycle Bin, the confirm dialog will show you the internal file name of that content rather than the actual name. For example, the file may be named abc.png, but the confirm dialog will ask if you're sure that you want to permanently delete $Rxxxxx.png from the Recycle Bin. This is pretty much it for the scope of the bug itself; it just displays the wrong name in the confirm dialog. The correct name will be shown in the list view of the Recycle Bin and if you restore the file, it will return with the correct name as well. This issue affects pretty much all supported versions of Windows client and server, including: Client: Windows 11, version 26H1; Windows 11, version 25H2; Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 Server: Windows Server 2025; Windows Server 2022; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server 2016; Windows Server 2012 R2; Windows Server 2012 As things currently stand, Microsoft is working on a concrete solution that will be released in a "future" Windows update. It remains to be seen if the firm will wait till the next Patch Tuesday or roll out an out-of-band (OOB) fix. The good news is that commercial customers can deploy a workaround right now, but they will have to reach out to Microsoft Support for Business for additional details.

      A study by physicist Henry Tye of Cornell University suggests that the universe may not expand forever. Instead, it could eventually stop expanding, begin contracting and end in a "Big Crunch" roughly 20 billion years from now. Maybe not as we now know that time can flow backwards.

      Of course. Simply reverse the polarity.
