I guess you'll be able to duel against other players?
I do hope that they've taken out that weapon that has '50% for an extra turn when lining up 4 jewels' because together in combination with that Warrior spell of 'add X red jewels for each 4 of red mana you have', I managed to zap many many critters, and when a duelled a friend of mine on the PSP, "It was simply no fun"; I started so I won...
So I hope they managed to balance it a bit more...
But yes, it's an essential buy.

Is that Bladestorm demo any good? I haven't tried it yet since I don't have enough free space for its quite large size, but now I'm wondering if it's worth clearing out other stuff to make room.

A couple of reviews are starting to come in now. Fairly mixed. I hope the online control lag mentioned isn't too bad.chub wrote:Speedball 2 on XBLA next Wednesday, says Eurogamer.

Forgotten how much you enjoy stoving yourself into crash barriers, in the rain? Now you can do it on bikes - in HD! Such fun!benedictw wrote:PGR4 Demo - 1.2Gb
Was kinda looking forward to to PGR4, think it'll be skipped in favour of more Halo and the Orange Box though, and my driving slot can be filled by Burnout Paradise.
Thought the Conan demo was boring, the combat is so dry and flat compared to the better games in that genre. Very ploddy and mechanical with no flair or real kick to the action. Might be worth a look when it hits the bargain bins in January.

I don't think you can paint the cars, other than just choose the colour. I also don't think it has assists, except for automatic gearbox and being able to choose the difficulty. The car handling is more arcadey than Forza's simulation style, so maybe the assists like ABS, traction control don't make sense in a game like this? The Kudos system wants you to slide and wheelspin to get more points. I'd recommend you give the demo a try to see how it goes.CarlBillen wrote:Can you paint cars in PGR4 like you can do in Forza2?
And does it have as many assists like Forza2, so that people who basically can't drive still are able to enjoy the driving game?
