YAY!!!!
-
Yeah, I'm home on my lunch break so I figured I'd check out what's out. I'm downloading the BIA HH trailer now. I hope it's not the same video where it's like 50 seconds of other stuff and then the last 2 is where the guy is falling into his arms.
EDIT: Oh man, I didn't see the Dead Rising, hopefully I'll have enough time to get that one and check it out before I go back to work.
-
That's almost as many trailers as the entire existence of the Marketplace...
-
Downloaded the 2 picture packs and downloading Test Drive right now. I cant wait for more as I bet they will be releasing more throught E3.
-
Wow, the BIA trailer isn't the same I saw a week ago. It has the part where the guy falls into his arms, but there is about 1 full minute or so of pure in game action, looks really good, I might be sold on this one.
Watched the Dead Rising trailer also. I was sold on this game by idea alone (as long as it didn't come out like State of Emergency). The trailer is bad ass. There are a lot of things str8 from Dawn of the Dead remake though, sniping from the roof, throwing a propane cylinder and shooting it, but it looks really good. Even more hyped about this game now.
I would definatly recommend anybody to watch both of them, the Dead Rising looks a lot better than I though it would too.
-
You all are lucky...I just knew about the stuff...I am still at work and cant download until later
-
That made my day, I wasnt expecting anything untill tomorrow.
-
No prob...tomorrow we get what I am looking forward to...Lost Planet
-
Anyone Else other than me is having problem connecting to Test Drive Unlimited server? ... Geez I played 14Min online and that was awesome, somehow I'm not able to connect anymore
-
i been able to get on all day

Didn't the demo just got out? I'm only able to play offline though
-
Does anyone know if the content is just temporary? I'm at work every day this week and don't have time to check out all the content. I know the Test Drive demo is limited for a week or so, but will the trailers and stuff be on live permanently?
-
UNO is also there on XBLA.
Downloading the demo now... can't wait!
-
heres an idea for the next dash update, multiple downloads, or at least a batch download that does them one at a time... test drive downloading now, up to 4% and only been on like a minute, we will see... cant wait to watch all these!
thanks OP!

QUOTE(MadEx @ May 8 2006, 01:21 PM)

Hmmm...? Was downloading UNO and at about 87% it went out with an error. When I came back, it was just gone.
Weird.
UNO is available?!?
-
uno doesnt come out till tomorrow, and about the multiple dl thing, I agree
heres my idea, open the guide with the guide button, then use L R bumpers to switch between a guide on the right side (music controls, friends, etc.) and left side (marketplace, personal settings, etc.)
Im guessing the biggest problem in this scenario would be multiple account/player handling
-
I hope that they give us Street Fighter this week...

Test Drive just isnt my thing. Didnt expect cops to be chasing me, reminded me 2 much of NFS as far as that goes. Graphics are excellent though, and I went offroad as much as possible to pretend I was playing a Rallisport.
I have officially come to the conclusion that I cannot stand anything other than rally games when it comes to car racers. I need to be offroading, even PGR 3 was a turn off for me. My gaming tendencies are changing yet again.
I wish they atleast put a bike in the demo so I could try it out but I'll definitely be passing on this one. It offers a lot, too much for me. Ive got Oblivion on my plate and still going through TR getting everything, I wont have time for TDU.
fuggin sega rally cant get here soon enough,I need me some mud slinging! and bring on the MotoGP demo thursday! yeah yeah!
-
just what do ya think hte cops are gonna do pat ya on the back and/or bump you and say good day sir have a good one. Becareful out there.
Madex I don't know what videos you were watching but WHAT FRAMERATE ISSUES? I swear you are trying to see shit that isn't there. I don't see any however. Must be you.

(about Test Drive) I am so confused though... When you guys were driving around.. can you honestly say those cars were A.I. controlled or is the A.I. still in beta?! I thought they were real people.. until i remembered.. I CANT SIGN INTO THOSE DAMED SERVERS!!!!.. Sorry for the caps. But jeez, is this normal?
PS: If you're wondering.. this game wipes the floor with pgr3.
-
Word is that there will be a Chromehounds Demo tomorrow...
-
easy to tell nascasho if they don't have names like George, Adam or etc it most likely people online. Ive had a race where it said server was offline and it was actual ppl online. I won the race mostly because everyone was crashing into everything.

QUOTE(MadEx @ May 8 2006, 01:57 PM)

Hmmm... is it just me?
All those trailers were crap!
(with one exception)
I mean really, they shouldn't be allowed to show this shit. Every trailers either had severe framerate issues, wasn't realtime, wasn't actual gameplay or simply looked bad....
Comments like that are the reason E3 has always been Press only. Because regardless of how bad the press can be they understand that theses are incomplete games. Some of what you see is conceptual "this is what we'd like the game to look like" some of what you see is simply incomplete "this is what it looks like right now" Take what you see with a grain of salt. Most if not all games look like they completely suck until they're almost finished for release.
Be happy you get to see the in-progress games and imagine what they WILL look like once all the bugs have been worked out of the ointment. If they games were at a point where they were ready to be played TODAY then they'd be on store shelves instead of on a developers hard drive somewhere.

-
Lol, yeah. BTW, is anyone getting this error message: Connection lost. The download could not be completed. Please return to the Xbox Live marketplace later to download the item again. For premium item yata yata yata etc...
Im suprised nobody likes cop chases. I mean it'll be unrealistic if we could smack everyone around w/o getting in trouble and then everyone will just block up the street.. (i did..
)
-
I dont see the Lost Planet Demo
-
While I am not in front of my Xbox...the word is that the Lost Planet Demo went up by mistake...those lucky enough to download it say it is incredible...the rest of us have to wait until tomorrow...
-
You guys should remember that it states that the TDU demo is from an unfinished product and isn't for release for a while. It states it's a "work-in-progress" on the download page.
-
All this downloading talk is killing me. my classes start today of all days and not i have to wait till 10pm to even start downloading this stuff.
oh and if the sonic vid is the same for DL on the marketplace then i am pleased for the most part. i was hoping that it would ONLY be sonic but what little they do show looks like the good old school sonic i love.
at least i can read impressions to pass me by. i also agree that the 15 time limit on TDU is stupid, demos should not have time limits just other more suitable limitations.
-
If you can't get to a 360 and wat to see the trailers...Xboxyde has posted all of them...

Same here, I'm at work till 6ish then I'm at the gym for a few hours, by the time I get home and get some dinner it's like 9pm
Can't even download videos at work (the computer here doesn't even have sound, which is both good and bad
).
Also once I get home the first thing I've got to do is un-install that abomination that is the FFXI beta demo, I keep forgetting to and it just sits there mocking my lack of HDD space.... so that will probably be a few more hours lost.
-
WTF!!!! IT's TAKING LIKE FOREVER TO DOWNLOAD... LIVE'S SERVER IS GETTING R@PED

i got my download connect dropped twice, but then picked right back up.. taking about 5 mins per download, got about 7 trailers so far... dead rising is going to be one hell of a rental!

-
Is TDU Singleplayers or online only for the demo?
What about Lost Planet?
-
test drive is freezing on me have never had any freezing or crashing issues with my xbox360 b4 would this just be coz the servers r probally full?
-
Test drive just blows. car handling sucks. And no, i dont suck at it. My time trial was 2 min 16 sec so i think pretty good. This game will not be a big hit even tough it's still wip.
-
This is too distracting from studying for finals!
-
I just watched the LOTH BFME2 trailer... I'm so excited... It appears to be an RTS and online, so I could not be more pleased. I might be happier with this than if C&C 3 had came for the 360. So many good games coming out. Only thing that sucks about LOTH is it's made by that "EA" company, lol.
Sidenote, this sucks, since I have FFXI on my HD I can only get a few demos/trailers on at a time and can't ever keep all the good demos. I hope they do come out with the bigger HD's soon and they never make another game that copies to your HD.

Obviously you do.
Hey don't get mad at the dev just because you suck and that you can't drive a car in the game. Ever think that was their intention of having a less arcady driving experience. Get used to it oh wait you won't get it since you don't get the concept the devs are going for. This ain't pgr3, ridge racer or NFS. It has entirely a different feel to the driving. It's not perfect physics but it's a heck of alot more realistic than anything I've drivin yet.
-
I know really good what the intention is. I think they just see it way 2 big. And they fail at this driving experience. Now ur gonna tell me it feels realistic? Come on.. Its an arcade racer in a realistic enviroment, thats how it feels
Ooh and I do he, do I? Whats ur time trial time mr shumacher
-
Test Drive is online, I went on it 6x because of the time limit and 3 of the 6 I was online and the other 3 it said the TDU server wasnt "on"
-
ok got it working without freezes (tdu at is) cant wait till its released but i hope sum of the graphical glitches r fixe theenot 2 bad but undertanding this is a w.i.p
am i the only one whos looking forward to rain and bullet witch?
-
Damn!
I couldn't get my daily work out during lunch.
Now I have to work out after work, which means I'll be getting home late!
-
w00t managed to grab the lost planet demo before they pulled it
-
do they have a WRX in the demo, or a Corvette Z06, if so I can test how "real" it is...
I drive a WRX and my father owns a Z06, in PGR2 driving the WRX gave me goosebumps it was so true to the real deal in terms of acceleration braking and cornering, even the shift points. The sound was slightly off and it was PGR2 so it wasn't the best looking car but man the characteristics were DEAD NUTS.
There's no WRX in PGR3 but there is a Z06 and I got the same feeling from that as I did with the WRX in PGR2....
Even GT and Forza didn't give me that feeling when I played those games, they felt sluggish and less nimble. Now maybe they acted more true to life but felt different being fed through a controller and PGR was less true to life but attempted to make it feel real I don't know... all I know is driving the 'rex in PGR2 I knew what the car was going to do before it did it because it felt exactly like the car I drive daily.
-
It looks great, it has great gameplay, there are two levels with boss fights and you can control a mech suit. Controls are mediocre but it's a prerelease demo so I hope they will adjust it a bit. I don't like the fact that you can move the crosshair without turning. Especially on small ledges it can be frustrating to walk there without falling down. Total playtime for the demo is approx. half an hour. So it's well worth the download.
-
Well, in a way TD:U is a whole different game, but the fact that everyone is looking for a good racer has me dissapointed of pgr2 vs. pgr3. The graphic arent as great as pgr3 but the gameplay was something i really liked. Have your own character, drive in-car view in a free-roam enviroment... This is what i LOVE in a racing game (though nfs's sucked:personal opinion!!!) I played this demo at least 5 time already. I only played pgr's demo (before i got it) once. The longivity of this game really shows, so if you like long-lived games.. this seems like the next-gen racer-killer app.. (Not a word) BUT we will see when everything is worked out, and the final rev comes out. So this comment MAY change.
I hope i don't get flammed again...
-
Dled all demo's too. Only BIA and Sonic Looked good. And that zombie slashing game might be fun as well. Altough it might gonna get boring 2 after a while. And that game with that scary lady looked promissing till I saw some ingame footage, dunno what the game is about even. Whas that a zombie 2? Might be good, might be trash. Lord of rings will be a great game if u like RTS games also

I think you're safe. MS will probably leave this stuff up for at least 30 days... if not forever. It may be restructured whenever that rumored dashboard update comes, but they've worked too hard to secure some of that content to just let it vanish into the cyber-ether.
I just want the damn UNO game to come out.

And lost planet.

Excellent find. My only problem is... it looks the same at first blush. The water effects are vastly improved, but the sand still looks like DOA3 sand. And I really wish Itagaki would get away from that "clump" hair. I'm fine with the anime art style, but the hair kills me. Still... I look forward to what all this turns out to be..

i downloaded everything yesterday and overall i am pleased and impressed. although some of the vids have been online for a while now (stranglehold and BiA for ex.) it was still nice to see them on a bigger picture. i dont know what complaints about frame rate issues came from as a lot of it was smooth and what wasnt was obviously early work in progress.
about BiA though, i thought the devs said that this video used a lot of assets that were changed for E3, so i was expecting a different trailer. is this really all that they are showing at E3?
-
I am hoping that MS gets us our Street Fighter soon...as well as the video for DOAX.
