Man, from all of the impressions I've read from people on forums, I knew the game was awesome, but damn, the demo sold me on the game!

Well, I already wanted it before the demo, but just like with Forza 2, I decided that with tons of exams coming, I'll have to skip it - but damn it's fun! Very solid, and I love how they reward the team play - if you're a good team player, you really get rewarded with the money, and can really stack up the powerups real good...

So far I'm digging the Elf with SMG + Shotgun, Teleport, Ressurect and Tree of Life... but I know there are still other stuff locked out by the demo...

So glad that this glad delivers, despite the retarded, uncalled for backlash by people who didn't even play the game...

 

[dante786]

Anybody know when The Darkness demo is supposed to come out?

 

[GuessWho]

wow @ Vampire Rain, might be contender for worst game/demo ever. felt like i was playing a ps1 game.

I played it for like a minute, then deleted it and threw my hard drive in the ocean

I felt like throwing my 360 in the ocean for even showing that POS to me. Never again, oh tenchu. Never again.

 

[rollingstart]

I find it funny that as bad as the Tenchu demo is, it is better than the japanese demo was months ago. In the japanese demo, you had to put away your sword to pick up items.

Majornelson sure did seem he was having a blast with it :lol

 

[thekad]

I wish people would stop bumping this thread for shit like Surf's Up and Tenchu Z. I almost pissed myself thinking The Darkness was up.

Yeah, me too. So I'm guessing that at this point we aren't getting a demo before the game releases right?

 

[Gowans]

Majornelson sure did seem he was having a blast with it :lol

:lol :lol :lol says it all.

What the hell is up with the quarter screen full screen video too :lol

I was told we will be submitting the demo this week for approval," he says. "We will have to wait about 2 more weeks to get approval (hopefully) and then post it on XLM and PSN." So there you go. That means that two weeks from now, you could be playing a demo of The Darkness and hopefully, not feel the urge to rush to forums and tell everyone how much it sucks. Otherwise you'll have to lick Lord Sonatine's shoes.

I just attended a Conference Call with 2K sports about their new arcade baseball title ‘The Bigs” which is coming to Xbox 360, PS3, PS2, Wii, and PSP. During the Conference call one of the developers on “The Bigs” said that a demo is slated for release next week for the Xbox 360. No date was given but it will be a three inning demo for every 360 gamer to try out.

[TeTr1C]

Good demos are lacking this past few weeks.

Shadowrun rules.
Tenchu Z is ****ing GOD AWFUL.
Overlord - Meh.
Vampire Rain - Ugh.
Project Sylpheed - No.

And YAY BASEBALL IS COMING. (Sarcasm.)

yo at least there are demos.. when I had my PS3, it would be like a major EVENT when an actual demo released. don't take it for granted

Seriously, they are free demos that come out at a good clip. Even if some of them are shit, there's nothing to complain about here. You don't even need XBL Gold to get them.

 

[GuessWho]

shit i thought Darkness demo was released.

 

[Sho Nuff]

Surf's Up is amazing!

Amazing in that they could make a surfing game with UE2. I would rather play Kelly Slater...or for that matter, SURFROID, because SURFROID IS THE SURFER OF LEGEND.

I like how the L bumper is the "play wav file" button. "I WAS BORN FOR THIS! I WAS-I WAS-I WAS-I WAS-I WAS-I WAS-I WAS-I WAS BORN FOR THIS!"

I also like the quarter-screen FMV that has the horribly animated walrus. I guess Sony Animation Studios didn't care that the team kinda sucked

"The Bigs" is getting rave reviews. It might appeal to even you dude, give it a shot.

 

[X26]

So any word yet if we can expect a landslide of demos come E3?

 

[manngc]

I thought the Project Sylpheed demo was pretty damn good. Especially for a $40 game. It was also a game the gains a LOT by going HD. So many small objects tended to turn into a mess on an SD screen.

 

[MMaRsu]

please dont kick this thread unless a demo is online.. :/

[Timan]

I was hoping for more!

Ditto or at least games worth place. Ace combat though, would of never in a million years think I'd like a game like that. Day 1 purchase now.

Same here, man! The previous games in the series weren't very appealing to me for some reason, but AC6 delivers just such a thrilling experience.
