Been round this road so many times
Feel like it's skin is part of mine
This taste of milk is almost gone
Still got my shame, but not for long
Been wrong so many times before
But never quite like this
Heard all, in the rain
But the rain all turned to piss

I played it for a while and was a bit meh!!Rod_S wrote:Turok demo is up - it's rubbish.
It's got Quick Time Events in it - a bit like Jericho - they aren't quite so badly implemented but they just seem so gimicky. It's a bit like they saw the chainsaw move in GoW and decided they wanted to do something similar - but it's just too jarring IMO.
Shame - I loved the original Turok outings on the N64 but I think the 360 is rapidly becoming over-subscribed with FPS games.

The biggest problem, well not for us but certainly for developers, is that the 360 has a flood of great FPS. Something average or something that might have been decent a year ago just doesn't cut it anymore. If you're developing a FPS now then you better be doing something fucking brilliant or innovative or you might as well forget it.WiredWorm wrote:Shame - I loved the original Turok outings on the N64 but I think the 360 is rapidly becoming over-subscribed with FPS games.
Absolutely agree with this. Coming from the true cream of the genre to something like Turok is a massive comedown, every rough edge is magnified into a gamebreaking problem that you might've let pass in 2006. After the amazing peaks that we've seen, Turok would still be a waste of coin as a £5 second hand impulse buy.fog wrote: The biggest problem, well not for us but certainly for developers, is that the 360 has a flood of great FPS.

Anyone picked up Burnout 3 Takedown from the Xbox Originals store? Does it still have Live functionality? Gotta say I'm tempted, but it's too close to Paradise's launch which is definitely on The List.

Almost but not quite. I was disappointed by Paradise but after playing the demo needed a Burnout fix so got Burnout Revenge new for £15. Everyone has their own favourites from the series (mine is 3) but I'm enjoying it so far.Rod_S wrote:Anyone picked up Burnout 3 Takedown from the Xbox Originals store?
