Liking the Nintey Nine Nights demo a lot. But then, I'm a Dyanasty Warriors fanatic so it was kind of a given.

Camera's shite though, I've written better than that ;)

Its like Otogi with more warriors, a friendly army, and not many different kinds of weapons hits.

Plus there seemed to be pretty decent depth-of-field and everything looked antialiased.

My only slight niggle was that my hands were totally seized up after playing through the level. At the right price, I would get this.

This one seems to have slipped through in all the Galaga shenanigans:
Demo: Rockstar Table Tennis

As promised last week, you can now download a demo of Rockstar’s ‘Table Tennis’ from the Xbox Live Marketplace. This demo is not available in Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Singapore or Taiwan.

Edit: Added Hong Kong

Edit: Hey, I forgot to post that this is a limited time demo. (sorry about that) That means that you can only download it and play it until the end of August. After that…the title will not work, even if you have already downloaded it! So get it and play it while it lasts !

Any chance of review & good locations to buy from anyone who has one of these, I am torn between getting one or waiting for an X-Arcade solution (It has to happen one day :roll: )

I've only played it with Galaga, and only had two goes since picking it up on Sunday afternoon; but it feels pretty much on a par with the dreamcast arcade stick, only with slightly springier buttons. Shaft feels fairly solid, but i'd have to play a few other games with it before I could give a completely accurate review. Feels nice so far though.

I picked mine up from Game Focus in Googe street, London

I find you really need a firm grip on the base to get the full benefit of the stick. Otherwise the shaft just slops around the more you waggle it. Also, a finger up your own arse helps.

If there's anyone who isn't excited about Dead Rising yet, then check out this little slice of gameplay. Not safe for the squeamish. :lol:

C&VG reckon that the demo is coming soon. I'm quite literally excited with excitement here. :D
Because fucking marketing cunts would never call a spade anything other than a Deluxe Easi-Shift Earth Movement Solution.

That movie is hilarious. The excavator was a possible one of the best weapons yet seen in a video game. :lol:
