DANGERMAN Posted September 29, 2010 Author Share Posted September 29, 2010 Castlevania is very God of War. I'm not sure they've got the blocking and dodging right, maybe with time it gets better, but I like to be able to cancel out of attacks in these sorts of games, otherwise being surrounded becomes a massive ball ache. And I didnt really get the timing on the horse riding part. Oh and Patrick Stewart sounds too much like he's reading, maybe needs some background music on his narration Aside from that though it looks great, runs nice and smooth. Still looking forward to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopGunKnacker Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 played the enslaved demo tonight, i wasnt entirely sold on the platforming and combat, it wasnt terrible though. the level design, set pieces and general artwork and feel is amazing though! definitely got an eye on it now.

retroed Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 Castlevania and Enslaved have both had very poor demos I think. I can't say that the Castlevania demo has made me think wow I need to get this, it was too short to get a proper grasp. I have it preordered cheap, but I may cancel it and pick it up when it hits the £17.99 mark. Not sure, I have a week to decide. It's not like I'm going to be short of stuff to play.

Same here - demo was crap. Might pick it up cheap later on. Plus the guys head looks too small for his body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted October 1, 2010 Author Share Posted October 1, 2010 it was always a god of war clone tbf to it. And its had 8s from edge, games and eurogamer so i wouldnt panic too much, even if the Dantes Inferno demo was better. It is kind of endearing that you guys arent manly enough for vania. I bet you didnt even get to the Dracula fight where he asked "What is a man... oh sorry Ben, didnt realise it was you. Heres me asking what a man is and the ultimate man is stood right in front of me. btw please dont whip my face off again" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illdog Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 "And who's that behind you? Oh, its the dizzog, im really fucked now. I can see me getting raped after this." Demo's are poor most of the time, my first LoS experience will be the actual game whilst im on fire. I hope it turns out to be excellent and you girls never experience it.

HandsomeDead Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 The demo is rubbish, a combat tutorial and a section of gameplay not representative of the full game. Well fucking done. I'm more drawn to Enslaved and I didn't like that demo a great deal, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendo Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Anyone tried that Arcania : Gothic 4 demo? Seems like a cheap Oblivion kind of WRPG. Actually quite enjoyable though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hinn888 Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Star Wars: Force Unleashed II Demo Hits XBL Next WeekWritten Tuesday, October 05, 2010 By Richard Walker We don't need a Jedi mind trick performing upon our weak and impressionable mind to convince us to download the Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II next week. We're dying to get our hands on some dual lightsaber wielding, force manipulating action as Starkiller returns to wreak havoc once more. Taking place at the beginning of the game in a secret cloning facility on Kamino - as seen in Attack of the Clones - the demo picks up with Starkiller discovering he's nothing more than a clone and subsequently embarking upon a journey to discover the truth behind his hazy past. Expect to try out Starkiller's formidable force powers and new Jedi mind trick skills in the Force Unleashed II demo, which is due to strike back at the Xbox Live Marketplace on October 12th, ahead of the game's release at the end of the month. May the demo be with you and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hinn888 Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Starting tomorrow, you'll be able to check under the hood (bonnet, in the Queen's parlance) of Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit as its November launch date fast approaches. You'll also get early access to Hot Pursuit's Autolog as a demo is racing onto the Xbox Live Marketplace, which enables you to sample the game's social networking aspect.From October 26th (tomorrow), for a limited time you can sample Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit and compete with your friends using the Autolog, which records yours and your buddy's best race times and then challenges you to try and beat them. You'll be able to play alone against the AI or invite a friend to race, and subsequently unlock a second track to try out in the demo. So, download the demo tomorrow and get posting those record-breaking times before your friends get the chance. Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit is slated for release on November 16th.

hinn888 Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 Majin & the Forsake Kingdom demo is also out today Ive heard good things bout it. - Only bout 200MB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandsomeDead Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 Majin is pretty good, at least I think it is. The demo is brief but it reminds me of BG&E, the stealth sections are ripped right out of that, and it has a Zelda vibe going, it even has a similar jingle when you unlock a door. It's a cute little game, the only thing I don't like is they've overplayed Majin stupidness a bit, something more along the lines of Totoro would have been really cool. I hope to pick it up, not on release but before The Last Guardian, as I suspect that would make it look a bit shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
