[OFFICIAL] Xbox Live Latest Demos

Cool! How did it fare in the review? Good or Bad?

7.5

The main thing the review said is it appears as if they left content out for later Marketplace Purchases. They said they hoped that was not the case, but they cannot thing of any other reason it was so stripped down.

Typed straight from the review...

The single player game offers 20 challenges, which are basically battles against increasing numbers of A.I. controlled worms. We miss the clever, more puzzle oriented solo scenarios from past Worms games, but these challenges definitely hone your kills for the real goods: multiplayer, On one console or via Live, up to four players can engage in a tension filled battle for pride and glory.

As thrilling - and funny - as the cartoon violence can be, Worms feels oddly incomplete. Many of our favorite weapons and tools from previous Worms games - including the BAseball Bat, Holy Hand Grenade, Skunk, and Select Worm option - are missing, and you can choose from just three environment themes (although a random landscape generator mixes up the terrain). True, this version is just $10, but it almost seems purposely downsized to allow for paid downloadable additions. (Lets hope not.)

Root Beer Tapper got a 6.

Is it just me or is NBA Street Homecourt really fun?

I really enjoyed NBA Street so i think this'll be my next purchase... they seem to have gone more extreme with this one too.

No, I had a lot of fun with this year's NBA Street as well. It was a lot of fun, I thought. Much better than previous NBA Street titles! :D Definitely at least renting. :)

Def Jam: Icon Demo Tomorrow :D

Gamers anxiously awaiting their chance to sucker punch some of hip-hop's biggest stars can finally breathe a sigh a relief. The demo for Def Jam: Icon, which was announced and quickly delayed in late January, now has a new release date.

The demo will appear on Xbox Live Marketplace tomorrow, according to EA. The details of the demo haven't changed; it will feature the Gas Station level and include two playable characters, T.I. and Outkast's Big Boi. Both artists will also have a song included in the demo. The full game will feature 29 songs, and the ability to create a custom soundtrack on the Xbox 360 version.

Def Jam: Icon is scheduled for release on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on March 6 in North America and on March 16 in Europe. For more information, read GameSpot's previous coverage.

I have 6mbit and it went pretty fast. I'm just glad I saw this thread before most people made it home to download this.

I'm just hatin' on DL because I remember him saying he upgraded to 50mbit, which is ridiculous...but I want it. :D :drool:

It's actually 30 down. ;) I wish I had 50!

I really was not trying to rub it in, just stating it was coming in faster than normal so it seemed like a good time to download it.

Still have yet to try it out.

ehh, it went fast, i downloaded it before i took my stuff from my house. Stupid dad... i hate this right now i can't stay at my house cause of him. bleh... anyway, mixed feelings about the game i think it's good, but the controls are a tad clunky, prolly cause i have no idea how they work as the demo has such a short ass timelimit.

hehe, my dad said some pretty brutal stuff about my girlfriend's race, and instead of him retracting his statement and attempting to you know do the right thing and apologize, he blamed me for having a bad attitude, and kept talking mad crazy ****. So... i picked up my ****, **Computer/360/some clothes** and went to a friend's house, and he has fight night lol so we can do that. But yeah, some really mean stuff was said about my girlfriend's race that is so far from true, and i just wasn't about to sit there and let him talk like that. It nearly ended in a fist fight between me and my father. So in turn i've basically just disowned him and luckily i've been looking for a place to move out to for the past week and a half with my best friend so i should hopefully be out soon. Until then i'm stayin here at my friend's house who's parents are being kind enough to let me stay.

Demo's i've got and played, and impressions:

Def Jam Icon: I don't care what people say about it. I love it. I loved FFNY, so i'd love this whether it sucked or not, but it doesn't. If it feels slow remember 2 things: its pre-build, and if you remember fight for new york, you had to develop your character before he became faster/stronger etc, and if you don't like the styles, you can make your own. That may not be the case, but i know you definitly make your own fighting style. I love the way you scratch songs etc, and i really hope they still have the amazing finishers? cause they made the game great for me before.

Crackdown: Amazing, buying on release.

Graw 2: Its exactly what it should be. it feels like they added more onto the original graw, and it feels better and more tactical.

i love it.

i might also try that blitz ****.

The NBA Street demo wasn't half bad. I'm going to be at least renting it.

Cuttz: Man, you're a posting machine! You joined yesterday and already have made 92 posts?! Welcome to Neowin. ;)

LOL

yeahh, guess i got alot to say man.

I love games :p

hows that NBA demo? i never got into basket ball games, but these next-gen ones are supposed to be better.

    • Wow, that could have been dangerous, certainly not ready for these things. They have to be 100% or pretty well close to it. Not that I will see one i doubt, never mind ride in one, they may have them in London, but I doubt they will come to where I live.
    • Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices by Hamid Ganji Storage and RAM prices have been rising over the past year, leading to a significant increase in the cost of electronics for customers around the world. Many companies are now revising their plans for upcoming devices due to higher component costs and overall production expenses. CMF is the latest company to cancel the successor to one of its best-selling phones due to rising memory prices. CMF is a sub-brand of Nothing and focuses on making budget smartphones for growing markets. The brand launched the CMF Phone 2 Pro last year with some eye-catching specifications and an affordable price. While many customers may have been waiting for a successor this year, one of the company’s executives has announced that CMF will not release a new smartphone this year. And AI is to blame. As Nothing co-founder Akis Evangelidis announced on X, the company has been working on a successor to the CMF Phone 2 Pro, but with current memory prices, it cannot “build a phone that feels like a genuine step forward at a price that makes sense for CMF.” So, no new CMF phone will be launched this year. Meanwhile, Evangelidis said the company still has several new products in the pipeline, including some in entirely new categories. He added that the Nothing brand will also continue launching new products through 2026. Budget smartphones are among the first victims of the surge in RAM and memory prices, as they have become more expensive to build. The sharp increase in memory costs could also reshape the traditional price ranges associated with budget phones. Apple CEO Tim Cook also recently said that price increases for some of the company’s products are unavoidable because RAM and memory have become significantly more expensive this year. Analysts estimate that the base price of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro could rise to $1,399 due to current market shortages.
    • Nudge me when they bring back hardware audio acceleration so I can get my EAX 5 back. We've evolved graphics to real-time path tracing, but regressed audio some 15 years back in time with this stupid software audio stack.
    • Ocenaudio 3.19.4 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display. Ocenaudio 3.19.4 changelog: Adds fallback fonts so every language and symbol displays correctly Improves autosave and session recovery stability Improves region navigation and display Fixes a crash when the level meter is used on displays with a scaling greater than 200% Fixes memory corruption when using the silence selection tools Fixes crashes when closing a file while effects are still being processed Fixes a freeze when applying effects to many files at once (macOS) Fixes crashes related to audio devices on Windows Fixes invalid file names when exporting regions whose label is used as the file name Other bug fixes and improvements Download: Ocenaudio 64-bit | Portable | ~40.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Ocenaudio for Linux and Mac OS View: Ocenaudio Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
