no problem mate i hope things are good with ya girl, the Lag on the Darkness Was Terrible But i still managed to win somehow, let me know what bioshock is like

[_Chris_]

The lag is fucking horrible, i was even getting it hosting, its a pity too cause without lag the multiplayer has the potential to be really good IMO, but there should be a patch soon fixing the problems anyway, that will please me. And yeah stuff with my girlfriend is fine, she was just a bit upset, crying a bit, few problems, did my best to help

[Fanappy]

its still not patched gay i was tempted 2 trade it in tbh cos the lag issues... still taking ages to download work soon too

[_Chris_]

Turn the background downloads or whatever it is on, so if youre downloading and turn your 360 off it will continue to download on low power mode, then you'll have it (hopefully, mines been on 17% for about 10 minutes now) by the time you get home

[Fanappy]

errrrrrrrrrrrrr i think i might cry i just got the 3rlod tryin to download that bloody thing what do i do ????

[_Chris_]

I usually just restart...

[Fanappy]

tried still dead took out all plugs, havent tried without the hdd yet but will do

[_Chris_]

I dunno what to say man, give it a bit of time to cool down...

[Fanappy]

thing is its dead cold gash and the bloody phoneline taken ages and its a bloody yanky voice with shitty music

[Schalkie]

Cool demo, worth the trial and error. Red lights are a bit much though, ouch!

You daylight loving ppl got it so bad with the Bioshock demo :>

At 4am I could d/l this @2mb/s. From what I read that didn't last for too long, tho. At any rate, this was by far the fastet xblm download for me ever. Funny enough, PSN Store is always this fast for me. I'm getting spoiled

The PSN Store is always very fast, regardless of the time of day for me, which is why it's so disappointing that XBL takes forever unless it's night time!

[Voyager2k]

No wonder it was fast for me. I'm an idiot and signed in my german account and downloaded the german demo which is 350 megs smaller than the international demo. From what I can tell blood is missing for sure, no idea what else considering the big diffrence in size. Downloading again from my UK account

Good thing I bought the worthy PSN games last night. At least I am gonna have something to do while I join you all in the suffering

From the looks of the german demo I'd give a serious warning to ppl who get motion sickness from some games. I started feeling it before I even entered the lighthouse. By the time I killed the 3rd splicer I stopped and decided to try again after having eaten something (that does seem to lighten the effect somewhat).

Just played the demo and I have to say, Damn.. Best looking game so far and the atmosphere is amazing.. Only one little thing I missed and that's your own shadow.. I noticed it when I was standing next to the pram. It was giving a huge shadow on the wall but mine was absent
Too bad you don't see your own legs also, like in riddick. Would make this game even more amazing.

I may be getting this after all

[TRIGGER M4N]

Been downloading since 4am. It was on 74%, so I deleted and started again.

[Chris]

I wish you could see your feet.

I downloaded the demo last night. The whole thing took about 15 minutes. But I opted to wait till this morning to play, as I needed sleep. This morning I turned on my console and tried the demo. My reaction was screw Vista, this is the real WOW. The game atmosphere reminded me of Condemned. The graphics in my opinion surpass Gears. I cannot wait for the full game.

[Ivan Joidherpus]

I'm likeing all the praise I'm hearing about this game.
Single player only may not be such a bad thing after all. I think I've (we've?) all been conditioned for the past 5 years or so that multi-plyr was a neccesity in FPS titles. Maybe its not after all. We'll see, as I'll be d/l this as soon as I'm home from work.

[Jamzy No 2]

ive been trying to download this since 10am its now 20min till 8pm

ive already decided im getting the game 'cause it looks wicked plus it got 10/10 in uk oxm and the only other game that got that was oblivion. if its up there with oblivion then ive got no prob with forking out £35-£45

Anyone know if this demo is available to silver members?

Apparently there is no more "gold members only" since quite a while already

Btw, even this afternoon getting the international demo with my UK account was fairly "fast" considering xbla standards with such highly anticipated demos. Took an hour to get 1.35gb.

The diffrence between the german and international demos seems to be the lack of blood (read: absence of it) and the lack of the 2 videos (title screen after timeout and end of demo). I didn't check if the german version has those videos but considering the difference in size and the content of the videos it's pretty safe to assume it doesn't.

[dark ru1er]

Don't worry fanappy, It killed my 360 too.
I got 1 red light.
I just went and got my other console off my friend.
It still a bitch that i gonna have to pay for the repair though.
Dam download keeps crashing on me to i have tried downloading it 3 times.
Todays just not a good day for me is it.

O well im gonna get the limited edition a day before it comes out in the UK. So i'm happy about that in any case.
