[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.

    • Free Software Foundation Europe pushes EU to force Google to allow AI uninstalls on Android by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels Users should be able to fully uninstall AI-based features from Android devices and be able to access interoperability functions, free from Google’s verification requirements, the European Commission has heard as part of an Android interoperability consultation under the Digital Markets Act. These measures were proposed by the Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) last week when it submitted its documentation. The FSFE noted that Google had started silently installing AI models without telling users. It noted that the EU’s DMA requires companies like Google to allow users to uninstall pre-loaded software from their devices, but in the case of the AI models Google is installing, they reinstall if you delete them, contravening the DMA. To get Google back under control, the FSFE has told the European Commission that there needs to be improvements within the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). First, it said that users should be able to fully remove pre-loaded AI components from their devices, with companies being prohibited from silently reinstalling or reactivating them. Second, access to Android interoperability features should not be contingent on registration, authorization, or contractual relationships with Google. This pertains to Google’s attempt to force developers to register with Google, even to publish apps to alternative app stores like F-Droid. Discussing its submission, Lucas Lasota, FSFE Legal Programme Manager, said: Google is planning to roll out its Android Developer Certification in September 2026. This will force every Android app developer to register with Google before their software can be installed on certified Android devices, but it should affect those who have removed Google Apps from their device. The program is controversial because it entails the signing of contracts and payment of account fees to Google, as well as the handing over of the identities of developers. It said: The FSFE said that if the Commission’s draft measures remain unchanged, then Google will be allowed to make developers verify their identity. The FSFE believes that asking developers to register is contrary to the text and spirit of the law. In summary, the FSFE has told the Commission that no developer should need a Google account, a Play Store presence, or any agreement with Google to access Android’s interoperability features.
