[OFFICIAL] Xbox Live Latest Demos


Recommended Posts

Actually I'm quite surprised, I have 5 demos on my hard drive just now, along with map packs for a few games, halo 3 beta, arcade games, themes etc and still 6 or 7GB spare :D

Although I guess it's different for you guys over the pond with movie/tv marketplace :/

Its a shame we will never get that. Canada dosent have it iirc. I mean look at Apple with their movies on Itunes. We are still waiting 2 years later!!!!

Overlord

Just as .Kick said, it seems to lack on overall polish. Also maybe it is just me, but slow down when you just swing a sword is extremely off putting to me, nevermind when there was more going on than me swinging my sword. I would rather sacrifice some visuals for smooth game play personally, but perhaps they will flush it out.

Shadowrun

I have Shadowrun downloaded, just have not check it out yet and will do so sometime this weekend.

I am curious, to anyone else that was also in the Shadowrun Beta awhile back, is the demo different maps than the Beta, or the same two?

I am really just waiting for Shadowrun to get here from GameFly already since I know I do like it, so that is why I am not in a rush for the demo I would rather just jump into the whole game, because as mail mentioned it is also very reminiscent of CS to me as well (I describe it as CS meets Magic to my friends). But for whatever reason even though my queue had an empty slot which I left empty on purpose, it never got shipped. :angry: I am really getting fed up with GameFly because of the last month.

^ DL, try out GamezNFlix. I've switched over to them from GameFly and I'm loving it so far. Shippings speeds are much faster (turn-around time from when you send in a game to when you receive a new one is about 3-5 days depending on when you send back your game). Plus you can rent movies including HD-DVDs, Blu-Ray discs, etc all with one (really cheap) subscription. You can usually Google a coupon or two to get that membership price even lower. :)

have we talked about Hour of Victory already? didn't like that demo at all. weird model characters, clunky animation, no destructible environments (in contrast to what was advertised) and all very COD2.

Sad excuse of a Unreal 3 Engine license. :no:

gotta say you're right, it wasn't what i expected. was looking forward to some good old fashioned arcade action with spiced up gfx, but this was more like Wing Commander. may not get it after all.

as for the controls, a bit awkward but can be gotten used to.

    • Zed 1.7.2 has landed with updated OpenCode models, bug fixes and other improvements by David Uzondu Zed 1.7.2 recently landed on the stable release channel, bringing a host of AI-related features including automatic context compaction and settings-based skill management, along with other things like better Markdown preview rendering and custom git commands in the graph view. Starting with the AI stuff, the developers introduced "/compact", a command that basically summarizes your conversation history on demand. This tool prevents your active chat window from hitting token limits by compressing older parts of the dialogue into a brief overview. In addition to that, the team relocated skill management to the settings UI, improving how the application communicates errors regarding those skills, and updated the OpenCode model roster to support DeepSeek V4 Flash, MiniMax M3, Qwen 3.7 Plus, and Nemotron 3 Ultra Free. External agent users can also monitor context window cost metrics and delete individual sessions directly from their history. Right-clicking ref labels in the git graph now opens a context menu that runs different actions against selected targets, kind of how VS Code does it. Here are some of the bug fixes this new release brings: The active agent fails to auto-select when creating a new git worktree. A scrollbar unexpectedly appears on wrapped code blocks in the agent chat. Collapse indicators for project headers appear when performing sidebar searches. Bracketed ellipsis title prefixes fail to show the ellipsis icon properly. Project icons render incorrectly in the recent projects picker. Diff hunk controls appear inside non-editable commit view multibuffers. The software update button hangs indefinitely on the downloading stage. Restoring an agent terminal in a remote project triggers a sudden crash. Splitting a pane that contains an active commit view causes a crash. Linux Wayland freezes when trying to read the clipboard from laggy external apps. Zed is a "newish" code editor trying to break the massive stronghold VS Code has on the developer community. Funny enough, the editor was created by former GitHub employees who worked on the Atom text editor (which Microsoft killed in 2022, several years after it bought GitHub). The project officially hit version 1.0 back in April, introducing platform parity for Windows and Linux alongside deep support for DeepSeek-V4-Pro.
    • 26H2 absolutely will support ARM Windows just not on devices that came with 26H1. This is evident by the fact I am running 26H2, which on my MacBook Neo and Surface Pro 12 (inch), within a VM.

    • The FIFA World Cup is not US centric.
    • It’s amusing how Microsoft is pushing IT admins as if this was a major, game-changing update. In reality, it’s just an enablement package that bumps the build number, which is disappointing compared to the more substantial 22H2 and 24H2 releases. Technically, 25H2, 26H1, and the upcoming 26H2 are essentially the same, differing only in support schedules. They could have included the Windows K2 improvements here, but chose not to. The era of Windows being in the backburner continues, and this 26H2 release feels like an afterthought. Shame, Nadella, shame.
