[OFFICIAL] Xbox Live Latest Demos

[CNSBarry]

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!!!

This is a surprise considering the game has only just been revealed a few weeks ago. I still haven't finished the first Ghost Recon :p

[Skiver Veteran]

i've never really had a big interest in the ghost reacon series... but everyone seems to be a little hyped towards this so i might as well give it a try when i get home from work

[Fabian-]

sweet, I'll download it tonight :)

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.

[Elliott]

I can't wait to try this! :woot: I loved the original GRAW.

[bdsams Veteran]

i wish it was a MP demo but when is the release date?

Does anyone know if they will be using the Engine from the single player into the MP yet? the one thing i really didnt like was how SP was differnt than MP engine wise and you couldnt do all the same things

[magik]

Nice birthday prezzie :p

Happy Birthday! :cake:

[AndyD]

Is team AI still just as retarded as GRAW?

[Pilsbury]

From what I have heard, there will be a MP demo soon as well.

The game is out the second week of March in most markets.

I would assume it still uses 2 engines for SP and MP.

Does it still use Ageia PPU? IIRC you needed PhysX to get better realism with explosions ect...

Xbox 360 doesn't need a PhysX processor. I think you're lost lol.

[Shadrack]

Does this use the UE3 engine?
