There is a BSG game out on xbox live acarde. If anyone has played it please tell me so if its good I can buy it.
I played the Demo for PC; I was not impressed. It was very simplistic and didn’t follow the show canon that closely. If you want a more sophisticated and authentic BSG game, I’d recommend Beyond the Red Line if you have a PC that can handle it. Its a free mod, but it doesn’t require any game to play. Only the demo is out now however.
That looked pretty interesting, but it’s not laptop friendly (you need a keypad to maneuver.)
I downloaded the demo and hated it. Sucked out loud. Haven’t tried “Beyond the Red Line” though.
This should come as good news to Chuck !! Disney released
TRON
on XBox 360 on 01-09-08, or at least so says the XBox Live website…After the drooling stops, I’d be interested to know how the game is !
I recently downloaded it and all I can say is that it hasn’t aged well. If anyone downloads the demo for Tron I highly recommend they download the demo for Metal Slug 3 as well. It’s very similar to the original contra, but with branching paths and better graphics.
I couldn’t tell from the demo description, but it’s just a port of the old coin-op game. Great for nostalgia but that’s about it. I was immediately 7 years old at the bowling alley begging for more quarters while my dad tried to bowl.
Due to an extreme number of new gamers on xbox live, the service has been laggy since Christmas. To compensate xbox live subscribers, Microsoft is letting people download the game “Undertow” for free right now. I am playing it and it seems pretty decent.
Lots of great games announced today at E3 (you can find most of the trailers here) including Fable 2, Gears of War 2, Fallout 3, Final Fantasy XIII and… Portal: Still Alive! Also in the new upgrade to the Xbox 360 OS, the 2 most interesting things to me were:
- the ability to install and play the game directly on your hard-drive (making the console less noisy, no spinny DVD)
- the abilty to stream Netflix directly to your Xbox 360 (free if you’re already a Netflix member)
All four seasons in SD and HD. SD are 160 points and HD are 240 points. So like 2 bucks and 3 bucks. No miniseries or Razor though =/
“Upgrade” is a…subjective term
Well i would just love the do not overheat upgrade to the 360
I’m on number 3 now.
but FF13 for 360 keeps me from having to buy a ps3 so that makes me happy:)
The trailer for FF13 on xbox 360 looks absolutely gorgeous. I’ve never played Final Fantasy before, is it possible to start with number 13?
Yeah they’re all different stories. Except FFX and FFX-2
There’s a free demo for the new Battlestar Galactica game available on XBox Live. When I booted up my 360 today, it was featured in the Game Marketplace area.
The graphics and play are pretty tame, kind of old-style, but it’s OUR Galactica, not TOS, and it’s complete with video clips from the show.
Great to see the bucket on a video game screen! The demo starts you off in a Mk II Viper at the decomissioning ceremony, when in jumps a Basestar to screw up the works.
Is it GOOD though?
Very limited play on the demo. It’s kind of retro, in that the graphics aren’t “photo-realistic” and I only played for a few minutes due to time constraints. But the mere fact of it being the updated ships and such will probably guarantee I buy it. I will try it again for awhile and give you an opinion.
It’s oooooooooold man like last year. It’s a piece of craaaaaaaaaaap but I still bought it
Really, last year? I never saw it before! Now I want to pull the whole thread in Geek shame. 
Ah, I thought there may have been a new one. The one you are talking about, Topgun, received much hate in this thread.
I just couldn’t get into it.
It is called Star Trek D.A.C. ( don’t ask me what it means) the demo is free to download on the marketplace.
If you like the BSG game on arcade… then u MIGHT like this one. If you hated that one… well don’t bother cause this is pretty much the same kinda game.
I liked the BSG game and didn’t like this one… the arcadeness of it is ok… but it’s a game that throws in fighters and bombers into trek world… it’s not a strait ship game. See for yourself. But Demo before you buy… seriously!.
