[OFFICIAL] Xbox Live Latest Demos


Recommended Posts

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.

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?

The thing I didn't get about AC6 was the targetting. It just seemed to target random planes. I couldn't make sense of it.

There were rumors that they were going to block it, but they haven't done anything about it still. I think they were more concerned about Live Marketplace than demos. Actually SpartanX said they don't care much about the demos a while back.

Yeah they are strict on the marketplace videos. It will tell you the content is not available in your region if you use a US account from UK for example. Themes/arcade etc you can still download

Yeah, I'm enjoying Eternal Sonata right now. I LOVE this game.

It's one of my most anticipated games. Completely blows Blue Dragon out of the water IMO. Everything about it is beautiful. Love the combat system, which is supposed to evolve as the game progresses.

Eternal Sonata is only available in Japan right now (Korea also maybe?) and the only way to get it in the US/UK etc is to make a new Live account with a Japanese address etc. It was explained a bit a page or two back if you want to look for it.

I would assume a US/European demo will be released soon enough, since the game is coming out soon after all.

Yeah that is true as i tried to download that free high def austin powers movie from the american marketplace with my fake us account but it blocked it and came up with that message

Thread Updated: The Bigs Demo

We're at a hundred pages, woot! :woot:

Was just going to point that out actually which is why I am in here.

It is quite a feat actually, especially considering this is one of the few threads that is not made up of pages and pages of responses going back and forth about the same thing over and over. :p

I'll have to try out The Bigs. I'm not much of a baseball fan, so I definitely need a demo to determine if I want it or not.

Thanks for the info! :)

Oh, and go and congratulate me in my 8000 posts thread in Milestones :shifty:

The Bigs is AWESOME. First Baseball game I've played on a console since like 1997 or so. I tried MLB 2K7 etc, but just didn't like them at all. The Bigs is arcadish and just plain fun.

The home run pinball minigame is a BLAST (pun intended) and overall I think the game is terrific. It's also the first game where I've gotten the majority of the achievements :)

Well I never played any of the Blitz games, but yes its very much like them. Over the top action, overpowered hits/pitches etc, but it also offers some pretty deep gameplay like when to use your special power hits or pitches or throws or base running ability etc. Plus even though there isn't any season mode or franchise mode here, the Rookie mode is pretty robust and offers some nice touches.

    • 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.
