Yeah, even though we hear Wednesday I wouldn't get your hopes up TOO high since XBL has the tendency to be a little behind on this stuff, but HOORAY!
And yeah, 5 levels is a HUGE demo!  Maybe they are really short levels?


Fantastic news, thanks buddy biggrin.gif

That looks like a really good Achievement breakdown  smile.gif

Difficult enough to make the achievement's worth while but not stupid difficult like "become the best player in the world"  laugh.gif

As for the game being in development for 10 years... they STARTED 11 years ago, worked on it for a while then the project was canceled... after a while they picked it back up and re-started from scratch.

It was started in '95 and then canceled in '99 due to major engine problems. Rumors started floating around '02 that the game had been picked back up and it wasn't made official until last year.

They trashed their original engine in place for a heavily modified version of the Doom 3 engine but the story and general game design remained the same as what they'd had back in '99

i have been waiting for the demo as well since it was supposed to be released around E3.  there is a rumor that has surfaced though...

QUOTE
The full post as spotted by the guys at Xbox 360 Fanboy:

SEGA gave some new info about CH today!

30/06 a theme pack and the demo will be downloadable from marketplace
11/07 a second theme pack will be available.
15/07 part pack 1 will be on the marketplace
15/08 part pack 2
15/09 part pack 3

Sounds good!!!!!!

I read the news on various german gamesides, so a link wouldn´t be useful I suppose…

To begin with, it sounds plausible: the Chromehounds demo was originally announced for E3 but didn’t make it there over a month ago.

Any reason not to believe it? Well, plenty as a matter of fact. For starters, June 30th is a Friday and MS doesn’t release content on Fridays to avoid having to endure troubles they can’t fix during the weekend. Secondly, I would’ve preferred the links yeah thank you. My German sucks but I’d be able to read it well enough to validate the source, now no source whatsoever is given in the whole topic. So all we know now is that some guy called Arest claims several German gaming sites think the Chromehounds demo will be up in 10 days.

ive always wondered that as well, but prey takes it to a new level (or so the demos show) basically space and gravity are all variable things, which will throw you for a tailspin trying to remember where you are.

Im trying to not to be really hyped by this game but that is proving to be difficult at this point

Well, the demo probably launches at the same time in different countries.  I think that that website is in Denmark (correct me if i'm wrong).  It launches on the 22nd for them when it's still the 21st here in the states.

We do not want 360 people waiting up for the demo or having false expectations. The 360 demo will not appear on Marketplace tonight.

I’m still waiting for specifcs, but I’m being told that it’s still in testing at MS. From what I understand this isn’t MS’s fault, and is more likely just an issue of timing.

I’m hesitant to give any estimates for a release, but I’ve been told it should be reasonably soon after the PC release, but could be as long as a few days.

We will post an update as soon as we have more solid information.

exactly i understand that a lot of people are pointing the finger at MS, but i dont think they are the ones that put out the ads, isnt it the publishers of the actual game just like they are the ones who put out ads for the retail games?  the quote i posted says its not MS's fault but people still need a scapegoat.  shit happens, and any one of us should understand by now that nothing is gauranteed with gaming.  if ads can have the wrong date for an actual game, i see no reason why it wouldnt happen for a demo as well.  

i agree that it is getting old but bitching and whining about a FREE and very awsome feature wont get anyone anywhere.

     I like knowing ahead of time whats coming but demos and the like should not be hyped up when thier still fucked up.

But PC demo is kickass eh?   I want it on my big TV too...looking all maxed... sad.gif

well not to directly point a finger at MS, at least not their technical people but I can think of so many things that came out much much later than orginally told by the PR people. and some that still havent come out. So theres something going on, and maybe the PR and techies should talk more often or something to give some more realistic dates.

umm a GoW demo has never been announced or mentioned by anyone at MS or epic, Mark Reins from epic even pointed out how they wont have a GoW demo out soon, and maybe never.  

a demo that was announced and still not released yet could be chromehounds which was supposed to be released with the other E3 demos a few weeks ago.

I'm just starting to think that with the speed that information spreads on the internet, and people misinterpretting things quite often, that we as consumer's blow these things out of proportion getting excited and building the hype on it.  

I rarely (probably because of the restriction on my net access at work) see these rumors of demo dates, etc firsthand.

Normally I see them on the message boards, and feel like everything needs to be taken with a grain of salt.

i know what you mean, i see very little first hand.  the people that do get all worked up about it are pretty spoiled with this whole system.  it's flipping free, they never used to give demos out for console games like this.  i know they had the demos bundled with some xbox 1 games and such, but i'm talking about ease and accessability that has never been easier.  i love them, they've saved me money on games i didn't like and have caused me to buy a game or two i wouldn't have normally bought.  m$, i'm sorry, is doing a great job with the 360 thus far.  

Bill Gates' #1 thing against pyracy has been to make people WANT to buy things, before trying to combat it with different securities and such and he's winning me over.  people should be happy they have such a system and before somebody tells me, "no no omglollipopshorts, we pay $50 a year!!!! for this service"  no, no we don't, we pay $50 for multiplayer gaming, just like in xbox 1, the rest is all gravy. it is an ingenious service that makes them more money with all their "points" like their own country that translate to dollars and cents ohmy.gif but at the same time adds to the wonderful array of possibilities for the 360.  

kind of fell off topic there, but what i'm saying is, wait for the damn demo, it will come.  if u can't wait, play one of the other great 360 games...or hell, even go outside for a change.

yeah ive been playing the demo on my pc, the portal are really weird, but i dont understand their purpose, i mean i do but half of the portal are like these floating time warps. the other half are just like a random crate sitting on the ground that you have to crawl into. youll see once you start playing, still allot of fun though.

Thinking about just downloading it on my PC and running it with my 7900 gtx's and hook up a wired 360 controller and play on the LCD I usually play on and see how it is. It's as close as the 360 demo as I will get.

oh and if flight simulators make you sick, dont even bother with multiplayer =)

Just been playing the demo. Not to sure about depth but graphically this game is astonishing when running in full on everything!!!

When you start to go through the portals and walking up walls it really starts to get good.

I really wanna see how this looks on 360. It should be a really good comparison.

demo kicks ASS. i cant wait untill the 360 demo comes out because i know my 6600GT isnt doing this game any justice. multiplayer made me kinda dizzy untill i got used to the layout of the level. one time i was walking on the ceiling and shooting up (err down or w/e) at the guy and he was going insane trying to find me. also i LOVE the portals. absolutly amazing. love shooting nades at people through them beerchug.gif

multiplayer is absurd, in two seconds you forget which way is down. Instead of most MP FPS's you just have to  know a simple layout in 3d, you really have to play this one a lot to have any idea where you are.

Gordita literally means "little fat one" in spanish, but is used as a slang word to describe curvy women with nice asses.  It's like when we say she's "got back" or has a "ghetto bootie".  biggrin.gif

So that would mean that gordita37 has been calling themselves a 'curvy woman' with a 'ghetto booty' for quite some time.

does anyone know off hand if the 360 controller works with the pc demo, i havent got the drivers yet but damn its hard playing with the mouse/keyboard when your not used to it

so far the game runs great on my rig(amd 2800+, ati x850xt, 2.5 gigs of pc3200 DDR, but has quite a bit of screen tearing but i think its my lcd monitor, ill have to look up the refresh rates, LG flatron L1730S, it better not be shit, i payed friggin 390.00 for this damn thing 2 months after it came out, didnt know about the specs and problems at the time and havent played any games beside my wife playing kiddie games to cause me to go check

it does look slightly choppy at points but there arent many options to change in the video section of the menu, is this all we have or will the full version bring us more options

Played the PC demo (I gave up on waiting for the 360 version) and looks like itll be a fun FPS. At least they are trying some new twists on the gendre. Not entirely impressed with the graphics but i also do not have a top of the line pc (good but not top of the line) and i didnt check the settings. Will definately be buying for the 360 though.

I really wasn't looking forward to this game. I played the PC demo and completely changed my mind. So I downloaded the 360 version and changed my mind back again. It sucks! Generally it does look the same as the PC version but it's really choppy with a strange stretching going on to make it 16:9 and it actually very nearly gave me motion sickness. I couldn't focus my eyes on things when I was awlking along.

You know what I read about that. Whine whine whine whine whine. Prey demo rocks on the 360. There IS NO SKIPPING. You prove to me where it is and I"ll duplicate it. Until then I think your full of it. Now there does seem to be a little stretching but giving motion sickness is an understatement. Perhaps you should go see a doctor and have that condition checked out. I play 3 feet in front of a 27" and do I complain?

I cant stop playing the demo. Is is good but it doesn't blow me away like GRAW does. But it gives me a look at what the later levels will be like. This game is alot better than PD0. Do you guys really thought it would be any different than doom 3? Same guys that made doom 3? C'mon now, don't act surprised.
