I just play x-box 360 in local compusa store

I play
I pay demo of
Project Gotham
Call of Duty 2
NBA LIVE 06
Amped 3
NFS Most Wanted
Dead or Alive 4
Quake 4
Perfect Dark Zero

 

How was it?

 

Did you play all of them, or play 3 plus more videos?

 

i played king kong and kameo, nothing xbox couldn't do.

 

Well, to be fair King Kong is a rush port from the xbox, and kameo was originally goign to be an xbox game. If you want a good look at it check out Project Gotham Racing 3, Call of Duty 2 or NBA2k6 ...

 

I pay only this
Project Gotham
Call of Duty 2
NFS Most Wanted
and the other videos

 

im shocked mircrosoft didnt put playable demos of project gotham, doa 4, or even perfect dark zero.

 

Yeah I was dissapointed when I finally saw an xbox 360 demo pod.
Only King Kong and Call of Duty 2 were playable.

Damn nice looking machine though! i was also impressed with the pad.

 

To be fair, the original Xbox demo pods back in 2001 only had 1 playable game initially (I know cuz I have that first demo disc)...that short demo level of Oddworld. Everything else was movies until just before launch date when an updated demo disc was sent for the kiosks.

 

true but oddworld wasnt a bad game to demo. This im guessing had alot to do with rushing, since call of duty and and king kong seemed to pretty much have most of their work done, it probably didnt take much time away to do a demo. Still does anyone know if it does take a bit of time out of development to make a demo for a game?

 

i think he's talking about the essence of the games. Remove the Updated graphics, and there's no reason why those tittles couldn't be on xbox, technically and spiritually.

 

'Proper' demo's take lots of time.

...Proportionally they can take more time than building the whole game!

This is due to certification, which is the same as the final game, and other issues such as how the demo functions, i.e can the game be terminated to return to dash to select another demo? etc, etc (if you consider that a 'normal' game will usually just play until you turn it off).

 

I still haven't played the thing but I just saw one live for the first time at EB, it was a demo unit but it only had one playable demo, which I didn't even play, I just watched movies.

I wasn't terribly impressed, although it might have been the display. Everything looked a bit grainy.

Elder Scrolls looks like it'd be pretty if it was in proper HD and wasn't jerky (like the movie was).
