Mercenaries - Very cool game! Kinda reminds me of Body Harvest on the N64 actually, massive landscapes with tons of vehicles and stuff to blow up. Really impressive explosions as well, the carpet bomb looks nothing short of awesome and the physics are very cool and the best I've seen on Xbox.
Mech Warrior 2 - Better than the first game in single player, nice graphics, could see it getting dull though after prolonged play. Haven't tried it online yet as I can't be assed to fiddle with wires.
Sponged Bob : The Movie - This game rocks! Sure oit's easy and quite simple but it's a lot of fun. Definetly one for the kids. I've never seen the show and still manged to get a lot of enjoyment out of it. Would definetly pick it up if I see it going cheap in future.
SO basically a pretty empty disk. There's another 5 demos on there but they're all old so I won't bore you with the details.
Worth a purchase though if you wanna try out Mercenaries, the demo's pretty big and there's a lot of stuff to mess around with.

They said 4 demos which includes Mercenaries,Star wars battlefront,Spongebob the movie, But only 3 demos are new?
I wasn't talking to you.
Mercenaries seems good, if a little souless and insipid - Body Harvest it ain't - there's none of the charm that made a clunky and hideous N64 shooter a true great. Except the bunker buster bomb. BOOM!
Mechassult is fun - only played it on Live, and the irony is that the game is best played when not in a mech - me in the VTOL plane and Munkeh in a Battlesuit proved this.
Haven't played the others, except Blinx 2, which is so crap I cried.
OXM is just horrible. Just, revolting. Leave it at that.
*shudders*

You titbiscuit. I meant I'm waiting for the demos!
You're looking forwards to OXM reviews?
Ahahahahahahahahahaha
Demos maybe. Reviews, no.
Mercenaries might warrant me a purchase. And the MA2 live demo.

It's Spongebob, he's still in the present *cries*
Yeah, I got it today too. All 3 demos are actually really fun, especially Mech Assault 2 on Live, which suprised me as I never really liked the first (the kill stealing drove me insane).
Next issue should be excellent though. All the demos you mentioned a few days ago, plus reviews of Conker, Brothers in Arms, Chaos Theory, UC2, Future Perfect and SMB Deluxe. Yay. :D
