[OFFICIAL] Xbox Live Latest Demos


Recommended Posts

Ace Combat really holds true to the previous games.

Another game added to my "To Buy ... " List.

Yes, I have been watching this game ever since it was announced for the Xbox 360! I loved the series on the PS2 and I can't believe it's exclusive to the 360 this time around. :D

Blue Dragon was cool, not sure if I will buy it though as the voice acting is really bad imo. Played it for as long as I could this morning, but I was pretty tired. Will give it another go later :p

I got so confused by it and it wasnt smooth, needs to keep going , someone talks "pauses" someone talks "another long pause" and this is in a heated boss battle!!!

Well the retail version will come with japanese audio too with subs :)

I played the demo for a bit but i was on my lunch hour so i couldn't really play for long, while the game is good, one thing that'll make me go insane is the stupid woman who says "treasure" when an enemy drops an item :p

Wow to Blue Dragon! I played about 30 minutes of it and it was fun. The voice acting seemed a bit off but other than that I kind of liked it. The only other similar turn based games I have ever played was the Legend of Heroes series of the PSP which is crap compared to this.

I guess all the menus and everything seemed a bit overwhelming to me, so I can't comment for others. Why did it seem like the in harder battles on floor 1 that the only real thing that did any damage was Corporeal or whatever for each character? Also, those other attacks that use less magic barely do any damage, but there are tons to choose from. Whew, I am tired. :(

Blue Dragon was terrible. Looks like I'll be skipping that one. It was nothing compared to the Eternal Sonata demo. Ace Combat seemed cool, but I don't know if I would be willing to fork out $150 for the flight stick bundle. I know you can get just the game by itself for regular price, but if I were to get it I'd go all out and get the bundle.

Agreed. Blue Dragon did suck. It's like Final Fantasy, but with cartoon graphics. We've already got 12 FF games. We don't need a copycat now.

BTW, anyone here having trouble getting the Stuntman Ignition demo? I keep trying to download it, but it keeps saying it can't download it. It's definately not a space issue on my HDD. It need about 650MB, and I've got over 900MB free.

I did not like the battle system in Blue Dragon, i was against one boss in the 2nd floor in the fortress and he had about 6 goes and virtually wiped out my party and then when i finally got a go, he had another 3 goes and killed my party!

@MightyJordan, i just checked my 360 and i have no Stuntman demo available to download, so maybe it is a mistake. Probably expect it later today

Eternal Sonata demo?! Where is this? Is this only for certain regions?

Blue Dragon was definitely disappointing overall, but honestly I did like the battle system. I seemed to work very well with it, and had no problem beating anything that came in my way, including that boss on the second floor. The jury's still out on whether I'll get it or not...

It's giving me issues... I've had my gamertag since before I got my Elite, but now I have a free month available for me... Well, since I'm trying to create a new account, it wants to give me that free month, and won't let me decline it, and because of that it wants more information than I can put. I'm screwed :/

You have to make a new hotmail account with a Japanese address and everything. Use that hotmail account to make the new live account. It will ask you for your address and everything. Just google for Nintendo's headquarters in Japan. That's what I used. Any Japanese address should work. It's not hard to find using google.

Finally got AC6 downloaded and wow! I have never really played a flight sim/action game before, but I had so much fun! Seriously, I couldn't really deicde which control scheme I liked though.

Who else stayed and tried to fight those guys in the end?

Haha, yea I did. But they just keep coming and they're REALLY hard to take down. Eventually the demo times out, though, so you can't ever really get them all.

I think I need to give AC6 another try, I couldn't figure it out.. :(

Blue Dragon sucked.

AC6 is a great game, definitely give it another go. Be sure you understand the controls and give it more of a chance.

I thought Microsoft was keen on this by now?

I like Blue Dragon, but there is some parts that put me off. I was really looking forward to it but it's not the game I was hoping for.

I think I'm going to wait for reviews and see how Eternal Sonata/Lost Odyssey turns out.

AC6 was cool, but not really into flight games. Was fun to play around with though :)

Edit: Stuntman demo is out, 641.90 MB

    • Nice. September/October GA?! I'll keep following it, but won't install any preview or beta versions.
    • 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
