Well,

Just gave the demo a test run and my god, it was horrible. It reminded me of Need for Speed: Carbon actually!

The graphical aspect of the game is great and the damage model is also very solid, the the feel of the cars is a complete joke.

There's Realism, Arcade and Codemaster Games :/

Not being fortunate enough to have a Live! Gold account, I'm not privy to downloading the new Bourne Conspiracy demo.

I was wondering if anyone here has given it a spin yet or not, and if so what your thoughts were on it? I had read the previews for it in the Official X-Box magazine and the combo system sounds interesting. It seems like they captured that bone crunching combat has seen in the movies, but from my understanding are focusing a bit more on the novels story line.

So, your thoughts on the demo?

I've played it. My thoughts? It sucks. Complete waste of time.

I agree, i liked everything apart from the feel of the cars which is very disappointing. Hopefully they will sort it out before launch but its highly unlikely that will ever happen.

I am amazed thet Demos clearly state "Not final product/Not A Representation of full game" And yet they have been snipped directly from the finished final game.

I really hope CM does sort this out and gain feeback from the demo and sort the steering out which i would like otherwise i don't think i will bother with it.

Wow we must have played a different demo, i love every bit of GRiD and it's a deffinet a must buy. The handling is great, yes it does seem a little weird at first but once you do it a few time it's pretty realistic. Make sure u turn off all the driving aid and it makes the game alot more fun. Drifting is quite well done way better the NFS ever was, but it is a little tricky to get the hang of it just give it time guys.

Everyone has their opinions and that was just my personal opinion, it's no Forza 2 but it is alot better than NFS and it is not geared as a simulation so u just have to give it a chance, I am sure the full game will be somewhat better. Again just my opinion.

Whats the general feeling about The Bourne Conspiracy?

I really don't know how to feel about that game, it feels like I could play through all of it but on the other hand It would hurt to spend money on it...

Overall I feel its ok-ish enough for me to play it through to the end but not ok-ish enough for me to actually purchase it...

thoughts?

Yeah, i'm in two minds about it. Somes bits i thought were really cool, while other bits really annoyed it. I think i could play through it and enjoy it but i don't know. A lot of the instant death situations annoy me. QTE's are a great idea if they give you more than one chance. Shenmue did them so well because if you failed the first one, they would give you another situation.

    • I have really been nerding out on my desktop icons and feel compelled to share...

      By Nick H. · Posted

      I missed this when you first posted it, but those are awesome icons! I would normally prefer things to be uniform, but each of those icons seems to fit perfectly for the game! If I may ask though, what was your thought process on which icons are circular - MK makes sense - and which ones should be rectangular or square?
    • Microsoft Paint used to be my favorite Windows app as a kid, and it's still pretty good

      By WaltC · Posted

      What I like about Paint is using it almost exclusively for cropping and resizing images I get elsewhere--it's quick, easy and cheap... I keep it glued to my taskbar, in fact. Also, the clipping tool comes in handy, as well (hit print scrn on the keyboard and it activates immediately.)

      I still remember it fondly today. It was so cool to work in 64-color Half Bright mode and 4.096-color HAM mode (interlaced) when x86 was still in 4-color CGA or 16-color EGA low res. C= never realized what it had until it was far too late--the failure of C= was the failure of its top management. The C= Amiga was 20 years ahead of its time, I always thought. It didn't hurt that in only 512k of chip memory, the Amiga could preemptively multitask when Apple was still doing gray scale graphics on tiny screens and along with everyone else was doing cooperative multitasking (running more than one app at a time in resident memory, but you could only run one of them at a time--had to manually switch between them.) I had a ball with AREXX scripting running between programs that had AREXX ports so that when you sent other applications data and instructions, those running applications could process the same in real time to output!

      I'm not sure about that, but it at least "does" a version of 7.1 that this brand new card doesn't....
