[OFFICIAL] Xbox Live Latest Demos


Recommended Posts

I have to say, I've been playing the Stranglehold demo for like, 2 hours now. Seriously. Its that freaking good. I cannot believe how awesome this demo is.

The game is going to rock, plain and simple. End of story.

Its 8:30 am here, when I get up in like, 3 hours lol I'm going to make sure to post this as news, since I haven't reported on demos on quite awhile anyways, I figure why not start with this awesome puppy?

I highly recommend EVERYONE into action games, or into Hong Kong/John Woo movies check this demo out NOW.

You get two difficulty levels to start, and can actually unlock two more AND unlock special moves in subsequent play throughs of the demo.

God I wish I could stay up and play more :(

Only have to make it through 8 hours of work to play this demo.

Good news is download speeds should be better by then hopefully, bad news is 8 hours of work.

Ahhh, this sucks. I can't get to market place to download the demo. It keeps giving me an error when I try to load the newest files. Then gives me a status code of 807b01f7. Anybody know wth that means? And is anyone else having that problem?

Really? :o

I heard about it and was excited, looking at the videos- not so much. But reserved judgement on the demo before I pre order.

Here's hoping it's worth ?35.:DD

Sweet! I'm home sick from work today (felt like crap this morning... hmmmm .. bad chicken :laugh: ) so I'll try this out! :)

Thread Updated

LOL. Somehow reminds me of a Sienfeld episode. The Kenny Rogers Roasters one. "Bad chicken!!! It'll mess you up!!!" :laugh:

The-Really-Really-Awesome-Game-Award goes to Stranglehold!!!

When I woke up this morning to play this completed download I was NOT ready to be hit with such awesomeness I really wasn't :| so just a lil heads up to everybody brace yourselves theres more action in this game then there ever was in Hollywoods entire existence :p :laugh:

"Has more", has more what? Glitter? Blur? It's pure ****!

Max Payne had awesome graphics for Its time, superb story telling & story, innovation.

This game has nothing of that.

All good and well that you think that way but your words are coming of as fact when they are opinion (and i don't have much respect for people who post opinion as fact) just a little reminder...

Im not going to debate which was better because i LOVED the Max Payne games its just that this was way more fun for me..

Well, thats your opinion.

I really don't see the "innovation" that Max Payne has that this doesn't.

I don't know whether to expect the game to give me the most uber gaming experience of my life, or the worst. In any case, I hope the game isn't hyped to infinity and beyond. I'll just play it with average expectations. :p

Loved the Stranglehold demo. The video at the end makes the rest of the game look sooooo awesome. Damn, just too many good games coming out in the next few months. And I'm going to Beijing for a month in October so I really have to save my money. I don't think I have a choice but to buy Bioshock though. Stranglehold will have to wait until I get back, unfortunately :(

    • Too soon, I'm still not over this death!
    • Normally, I admit when a title is clickbait (unfortunately, it's become somewhat necessary in AI-dominated news sections today), but in this case, all supported versions is implied and doesn't need to be spelled out in the title. Of course, I'm covering a Patch Tuesday update but that is only available to supported Windows SKUs. All our coverage relates to supported Windows software and SKUs only unless we expressly state that it's "unsupported", "unofficial", or "third-party". I'm sorry, but supported/official SKUs don't need to be spelled out as such in every Neowin headline.
    • ALL versions or ALL SUPPORTED versions? Neowin does it again.
    • But the reality is it will work for people's needs, and they don't care about the technology that makes it. Clearly not everyone's needs, but that low end space where personal laptops were only used to type emails, watch content and browse websites, but they didn't want to do that on a small screen device. Heck, writing that out I can now see the connection and reason it'll do so well. Apple is about experience. If the experience is bad, they don't release it. Low end Windows laptop manufacturers up until this point have not taken that into consideration ever before, so slow laggy usage with brittle slimey plastic shells were common. I hope that the low end space at least creates better physical products that last a bit longer, and if Microsoft get their act together, they could also have a solid OS on such low end hardware that would actually make the experience work for what the hardware was intended for. The fact that the CPU is a "cellphone", sorry mobile phone processor is irrelevant. It's about the experience, and so far, that sounds quite solid.
