:eek:

[블라스]

You don't understand.

Killer Instinct is probably one of the best fighting games ever.

I love it so much, it could probably make me forget about VF5 :eek:

(Also, my post was an 'Arrested Development' reference :()

HERE'S EVERYTHING THAT WAS "LEAKED"......IN ENGLISH (http://www.xboxic.com/news/1692)


X06 information revealed?
Posted in Xbox 360, Games, Xbox Live, Xbox Live Marketplace, Rumors, Events by Rossko UK on September 26th, 2006 at 20:33

Only a day away from X06, is it possible the lid has been lifted as to what is going up on the Marketplace and what will be in Barcelona? If the neoseeker forums get this right, it could possibly be the greatest event this year!

(Please bear in mind when reading the post that everything is rumoured at the moment. We won’t know until it all actually happens over the next few days as to what is true or not.)

Where to start? Well, perhaps the most exciting thing for people who love Halo (not me, I might add), is that the game is going to be running in native 1080p, making the most of the dashboard update expected soon. Other amazing facts are that the game will attempt to hold 50-64 players online. There won’t be a playable demo on the floor, but there will be one “behind closed doors”. So only select people will see it.

Remember the black 360? Well, it could be announced at X06.

Black Xbox 360 anounced. Available this Christmas around the world. New Xbox 360 core and premium bundles shown. Xbox 360 Classics game list. Kameo, PDZ included. More this spring including Oblivion.

It would certainly draw more people in, and with the Classics range being released, it will be a major competitor to the PS3, once again.

Next is the HD-DVD announcement for the US and Europe. This seems obvious, since it was announced in Japan at TGS, telling Europe about the release when Microsoft are in Europe seems a sensible move. Price assumptions are included too, so for the UK it will retail at £119.99 and for the US it will cost you the small sum of $199.99. Europeans also got a price, which stands at €149.99. The US will get their hands on it on the 24th of November, and Europe receive it on the 1st of December.

If you are going to the event (which you won’t be unless you have an invite), you will also be able to play both single and multiplayer demos of Gears of War. There will also be videos around as well.

Other things included that I won’t go into include:

* More info about 1080p and how it will be done. New dashboard announcement. Release date revealed for late November. Will allow users to try out homebrew content made with XNA game express.
* More news on Live Anywhere and how it will function. Talk about function with Zune and XBLA titles.
* Rare show off new version of Killer Instinct for the 360. Will support 4 player tag matches. Playable on show floor.
* Alan Wake shown and fully playable. Will also be availble on Windows Vista. Coming this Spring.
* Fable 2 trailer shown. Multiplayer confirmed.
* Many more videos and games are playable.

If you are even remotely excited about that, there is more to come, unless you don’t like playable demos of course. Any football fans around? No, oh well, I’m still starting with the best; Pro Evolution Soccer 6! Yes, that is great news! And if this all holds true, I won’t be posting for a while (sorry Curry)! Alright, alright, there is other stuff. Viva Pinata anyone? Or how about Splinter Cell Double Agent multiplayer demo? Yup, apparently it’s all going to be there. Make of it what you will.

* Splinter Cell Double Agent multiplayer
* Crackdown
* Forza Motorsport 2
* Sonic the Hedghog
* Viva Pinata
* Need for Speed Carbon
* Call of Duty 3
* Pro Evolution Soccer 6
* Mass Effect
* + MORE

And, not forgetting videos and picture packs and themes:

Videos:

* GOW single player and multiplayer
* Halo 3 trailer
* Fable 2
* LOTS MORE….

Picture Packs and Themes:

* Fable 2
* COD3
* Crackdown
* X06
* Community Pack
* MUCH MORE

OK, OK, that’s it. Now, reality check. Some of the stuff is definitely possible. The HD-DVD seems likely as I stated earlier. Halo 3 running at 1080p? Tough call. Unless it is planned for release at the end of 2007, I doubt this one. Mainly because only about 3% of the world’s population has a TV native to 1080p. Monitors do it, but it would be a waste of time, energy and man power. Maybe Halo 4 then. And 50-64 players online? That would be great, but bearing in mind Saints Row can’t do 8, Prey couldn’t do more than 6, and CoD2 couldn’t do 3, this seems incredibly ambitious. But here’s hoping.

The demos are incredibly ambitious too. After the recent Forza 2 delay, and the poor screens recenlty shown, a demo seems way off, let alone this week. Splinter Cell is possible, since it was announced ages ago for October; I’m sure Microsoft could bring that forward a bit. CoD3 is released in November (for now), so this is possible, and PES6 is released in October, so again this is possible. Mass Effect just doesn’t sound right. It’s not really the type of game you can release a demo for (ever seen an Oblivion demo?). Everything else is a “make up your own mind” one, it could go either way.

Apologies for the long post, but hopefully it will get you excited for the “Bringing It Home” campaign continuing this week. At least, if nothing else, you will be checking the Marketplace quite a few times in the next few days, just in case that PES demo does come out! And as I stated before, it’s all rumours, but fun to speculate nonetheless.

[WhatsHisFace]

I bet everything that Killer Instinct 3 isn't there.

[THE LIZARD#1]

Where The F**k Is My Gears Of War Demo!

[THWIP*]

Where The F**k Is My Gears Of War Demo!


THEY AREN'T RELEASING ONE.......AT LEAST NOT UNTIL AFTER THE GAME RELEASES. I'D SAY AFTER X-MAS AT THE EARLIEST.

[THE LIZARD#1]

^NO, you've got to be kidding me!:wow: WHY NOT!:( How come I can't play this game! Why wouldn't you release a demo?

[Dark_Lord]

Sounds cool. I hope all these are true.

[THE LIZARD#1]

I bet Gammy is freakin about the Call of Duty 3.:D

[THWIP*]

^NO, you've got to be kidding me!:wow: WHY NOT!:( How come I can't play this game! Why wouldn't you release a demo?



THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T WANT ANYONE PULLED OFF THE DEV TEAM TO WORK ON A DEMO, WHEN THEY COULD BE WORKING TO HELP PUT EXTRA POLISH ON THE ACTUAL GAME.
WHEN YOU HAVE A GAME THIS HIGHLY-ANTICIPATED....YOU REALLY DON'T NEED A DEMO AT ALL ANYWAY; IT WILL LIKELY SELL 1 MILLION COPIES IN IT'S FIRST 2 MONTHS......IF NOT SOONER.

[THE LIZARD#1]

^Yeah but I like demos because I'll know if the game will be sweet or not. I mean all the demos that they have made for like E3 and stuff why can't they put those out on the market place?

[Axid]

Because the internet is a series of tubes.

[THE LIZARD#1]

^WTF:confused:

[THWIP*]

^Yeah but I like demos because I'll know if the game will be sweet or not. I mean all the demos that they have made for like E3 and stuff why can't they put those out on the market place?


A LOT OF THE PLAYABLE GAMES AT THOSE SHOWS ARE TOO ROUGH TO BE PUT INTO CIRCULATION. WE WILL DEFINITELY GET SEVERAL DEMOS BETWEEN NOW, AND X-MAS.......ESPECIALLY THIS WEEK.........JUST NO 'GEARS'.

[THE LIZARD#1]

^Alright, yeah I see what you're saying THWIP. We have to many idoits who are like OH MY GOD that guy went through a wall, this game is terrible.:( Those people ruin it for everyone:(

[BatFitz]

This may be the place to post this...when I first started Xbox Live in august...it was going pretty fast...1 gig downloads took about 15 min. and I have the ethernet cable going directly into my broadband cable modem...now it goes pretty slow even for ones as low as 250 mb....has this happened to anyone else?

'LIVE' HAS BEEN A MESS FOR ABOUT A WEEK NOW.....THEY'RE WORKING ON IT, BUT THE 'TGS' DOWNLOADS ARE ONLY MAKING THINGS HARDER.

[WhatsHisFace]

Might be because so many people are downloading at this time.

[BatFitz]

well its been going slow since the end of august so....

[CM Punk]

Been working fine for me for the most part. The only problem I've had so far was that I got a chat invite from Clint that didn't work.

[WhatsHisFace]

That's odd... have more computers been hooked up to the internet in your home?

[THWIP*]

Might be because so many people are downloading at this time.


NAH, THE PROBLEMS STARTED PRIOR TO ANY OF THE 'TGS' DOWNLOADS BEING RELEASED. I'D SAY THEY DID ANOTHER "STEALTH" UPDATE, LIKE THEY DID BEFORE LAST 'E3', AND IT CAUSED A MAJOR BUG........LIKE THE LAST ONE DID. THIS IS 'MS', AFTERALL. :o

[THWIP*]

Been working fine for me for the most part. The only problem I've had so far was that I got a chat invite from Clint that didn't work.


THAT'S THE TYPE OF THING THAT'S BEEN GOING ON FOR OVER A WEEK NOW. A LOT OF PEOPLE (ME INCLUDED) HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO SEND/RECEIVE INVITES OR JOIN GAMING SESSIONS, DO VOICE CHAT, OR VIEW GAMERTAG/ACHIEVEMENTS INFO ABOUT PEOPLE ON THEIR FRIENDS LIST. THE XBOX.COM FORUMS ARE FULL OF THREADS ON THE VARIOUS ISSUES, AND YET 'MS' HAS YET TO MAKE AN ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT THE PROBLEM. THEY'RE WORKING ON IT, BUT I STILL THINK THEY OWE IT TO US TO EXPLAIN WHAT'S GOING ON.

[Delusive]

We're getting a demo of Mass Effect AND Viva Pinata? If true, that would be so...GREAT!

[WhatsHisFace]

I doubt there's a Mass Effect demo.

[CM Punk]

There will be a Mass Effect demo. It's not like "Oblivion", it's like KotOR, which would be easy to demo, the game is playable and largely finished, it will be playable on the show floor, etc. The demo isn't that unlikely, no more unlikely than a Dead Rising demo.

[WhatsHisFace]

Live better have some godly bandwidth in that case.

[XwolverineX]

I'm getting all the same demo's as.. Blas, lol.

[블라스]

Sonic demo available!

[Dark_Lord]

It seems I'll be downloading a lot of demos.... :D

[WhatsHisFace]

I wish this school didn't firewall LIVE!!!!!!!!! :mad:

[Fran]

You're at school right now, dude?

[WhatsHisFace]

I'm eternally at school. I live on campus.

[Axid]

Sonic demo is pure garbage :cmad:

Looks like I'll get the Wii version :o

WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT? IT LOOKS REALLY COOL. :huh: :csad:

[Axid]

It plays like ****, seriously you try turning with the winding brick road and you veer way off to the side, the attack setup is garbage, and there's something really.....I don't know, cheesy and cheap about it. Thank God I didn't have to deal with any gay Shadow drive-by crap.

I'm gonna give it a shot later. Lets hope the end result is better.

I played it earlier & I also found the gameplay rather annoying. I will give it another shot later but I did not like it the first time around

[CM Punk]

I didn't like the sonic demo much either, very underwhelming, and difficult to control. Camera was weird too.

[블라스]

Oh oh :(

[CM Punk]

Gamera, they just released the Blue Dragon trailer on Xbox Live Marketplace. Stop whatever it is you're doing, and watch it right now :dry:

[블라스]

I'm at work :confused:

[CM Punk]

That means that, per my instructions, you are to stop working, get to a connected 360, and watch Blue Dragon :dry:

[CM Punk]

Good man :up:

[Aiden]

ZOMG PES6!!!!

:O I love PES

And so does Blas. That's like a billion WHF points

[TrailerCues]

Doom is now on XBOX Live Arcade to unlock it is 800 Points. See you all later it is time to go play some Doom

[블라스]

Yeah, I'll definitely get Wnning Eleven.
It's the only soccer game where you're actually playing a strategic war for control of the ball, not just kicking it around.

[Aiden]

Yeah. Like FIFA which has changed it's style so much over the years to be like PES/WE which really says something about PES/WE's quality

[Fran]

I thought the Sonic demo was alright.

[BatFitz]

Yeah it was pretty sub-par...but the other levels shown in the latest trailer look really fun though..and I wanna play as Silver...he has "force" powers....

[Fran]

The FEAR demo was AWESOME!

That made me want to get the game.

[Clerk]

Hey that's the cover for my Government binder. :word:

Is today the last day that content from x06 will be put on marketplace?? Also, is there any chance we will get the Assassins Creed demo that was on display, because that game looks f'ing SICK!!!!

[CM Punk]

No, we only got some TGS content yesterday. X06 content will filter through until this time next week. As for Assassin's Creed, I certainly hope so. I wasn't too hyped before, but after that video I'm really looking forward to playing it.

[WhatsHisFace]

Assassins Creed looks so amazing.

[ProjectPat2280]

Assassins Creed looks so amazing.

Hell yea dude, except, amazing i think is an understatement, BIG TIME.

[WhatsHisFace]

I think I'm just going to climb all over for the first hour. It's such an awesome feature! :D

[THWIP*]

Hell yea dude, except, amazing i think is an understatement, BIG TIME.


IT LOOKS ULTRA SUPER-DUPER, WHACKALICIOUS, FANTASMORGASMICLY AMAZING.

[TrailerCues]

What time does the Oblivion content get online. The Smackdown demo is already there & I am guessing they are saving COD3 for last because there still is no COD3 demo

[Fran]

Well, some of the news CM said wasn't true...

...KI3 for instance. Banjo Kazooie 3 was revealed, but...

No H3 trailer.

[ProjectPat2280]

Nope, just "cholos" or mexican gangbanger wannabes.
