360 demo's hot/not!

[sss]

Ok.. so stool was blurbing and spitting and muttering in my face at about 2 am on Jan 1st on how i should create a thread naming the good and bad demo's to download to your xbox.

ok. so ones you want to avoid are
chromehounds (boring boring boring)
dead rising (pointless bash bash bash,1 gig of what?, boring)
sonic the hedgehog( bizzare , just flashy)
cars ( kids game by far,no depth)


and ones u want to actually play are

lost planet (online mutliplayer only.. so laggy.. but good)
dead or alive( about 6 characters, 3 fights, not the greatest but fun)
burnout( very short 1 race, limited mode)
graw singleplayer( gives good taste of game)
lego star wars( well maybe, you'll either like it or not)


i got some more.. but can't remember them, so i'll have to check when i get home

Mmm...good list and agree with most of it.

Played Doobiwans Burnout yesterday and getting it today
I have Lego SW and it is loads of fun!

hmm, Cars is for who it's for, my 2 year old loves it, if you need something for the kiddies wanting to play on daddies XBox, it's great.

And I agree about Lost Planet MP. It looks like fun, but it'll take time to get used to it, it's not as pick up and play as GoW.

My 2 cents :

If its your cup of tea :

Splinter Cell Double Agent SP demo ( if you are a Sam Fisher fan you will enjoy it )
FIFA07 ( EA's yearly sequel strikes again )

Will edit this post when i get online on the X360 later today...

I tried out Battlefield:Modern Combat last night, unfortunately the demo is Multi player only, but it seems like a really cool game. It doesn't feel like BF2 but cool none the less, I intend spending a bit more time with it, and I'll update again.

It's a pretty small demo, about 300Mb, so maybe we try get a game going?

I did try BF:MC way back, but never actually saw it for sale in SA.... weird?

Pity i have to download it again, but only if all the other peeps decide to join in.

[doobiwan]

Darn, it looks like you're right, I don't see it listed anywhere :$

Although DVDCrave has it for R360.

[RotoRouterZA]

Heck, i will download it as well!! Tried to this morning before work, but my Live was screwey! Will get it this evening!

before u all go get the MC demo... the servers you join are out of your control... so expect to play on an int server

Not really, lag was minimal/unnoticeable during my BF:MC demo testing since most of the X360 games have solid network code when compared to their PC counterparts.
