3 demo' s this week (all 3 demo' s up) - May 06, 2008 23:45
The Bourne Consipracy demo went upon XBL in the US and Australia yesterday... Europe to follow this week. I' m guessing there will be a PSN demo too.

The Haze demo will be up on PSN some time this week and will feature the full first mission of the game' s campaign mode.

Also, the Race Driver GRID demo will be up this week on XBL, PSN and teh WWW for PC users.

Pretty meh really...

I wanted haze to be a cool game. But I am sure it will be a big letdown. The game play looks sad very sad.

Haze looks like shit. It has since I first saw it at E3. Unless it gets some great reviews I don' t care much.

GRID looks f*cking awesome though. I' m really looking forward to it!

GRID looks good, but I wonder if they' ve fixed their whole cars-rotating-from-a-central-pivot problem that made DiRT so freakin weird to control.

GRID is the only one I' ve been itching to try. I think I' ll be disappointed with the physics and handling though.

Codies have a knack for making awesome looking trailers and screenshots and then not quite living up to them. DIRT looked pretty but handled like shit.

All the trailers I' ve seen of GRID showing cars rolling over, large fields of cars etc has me excited, but the last racing game I truly enjoyed from Codemasters was Race Driver 1 I guess, but mostly because that was my first experience with my MOMO steering wheel.

Looking forward to the demo though.

I loved DiRT. A nice mix of simulation and arcade like controls. GRID has me quite excited. DiRT was the last racing game I had any interest in.

I guess I am the only one looking forward to playing the Bourne demo. If the hand to hand combat is good, then I just might buy this one.

Nitro, Rampage, somebody. Go play the Bourne demo and tell me what you think. I' ve only played it once, but I' m rather impressed, at least compared to what I was expecting.

The driving is trash, the lock-on system is rather tired, cover is your standard Gears fare, but the hand-to-hand combat is brilliant. They weren' t kidding when they said that you used your environment in the hand-to-hand system. The only way I can describe it is visceral.

Bourne might be interesting.

I' ve already seen the Jenna Haze videos...wait it' s just Haze you are talking about. Right now i' ll stick to Jenna.

Can someone please tell me why HAZE doesnt look very appealing? or why it will be a letdown?

I am happy to hear this. I will download the demo tomorrow and give it a go. I was really hoping the hand to hand was good.

Haze, I was hoping this was going to good, unfortunately it is a pretty, but an altogether run of the mill FPS. The idea of being a drug induced soldier is ok, the fact that you can over ' medicate' is a good idea, however the demo doesn' t give you much to go on. It looks good though and I would probably rent it or borrow it off someone.

Looking forward to downloading Grid and Bourne.

Grid looked and felt quite good, when I played the demo back in March.

Bourne looked pretty good from what I saw on G4. They talked about how they want to make it really good so it can be a series. And how they didn' t have to tie it in with any movies so they didn' t have to rush it and make a crap game. I' m too lazy to download the demo though. Perhaps I' ll get around to it.
