[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.

    • Looks like the 7.1 is fake effects, can it at least do real 5.1? It says 'virtual 7.1' in all descriptions.
    • You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?
    • Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?
