"Latest OXM demo disk..."

Rainbow Six : Lockdown - Only playable online, but suprisingly really good. A hell of a step up from Rainbow Six 3, the new RPG like mode looks to have a ton more depth than any of the previous online Rainbow games I've played. Me think team tactics and working together will be a must with all the new classes and ways of interacting with the levels.

Incredible Hulk : Ultimate Destruction - Amazing fun! I fear it might be quite short lived, but damn the demo's addictive. Definetly one I'll be picking up when it comes down in price.

Fahrenheit - This is an interesting one. Not sure if I actually like it, it's intriguing I must admit, probably one I'll pick up at bargain price eventually as I doubt it'll sell well.

Brian Lara Cricket - A cricket game? muuuuuuuur

Scooby Doo - Yeah, completly rubbish.

Other than that there's not much else to speak of on the disk. The videos of that Dead Rising game on 360 look freaking awesome, but nothing else worth noting.

Next months demos are....

Far Cry Instincts
Conflict : Global Terror
Evil Dead Regeneration
Burnout : Revenge
Heroes of the pacific (Xbox Live enabled)
Mavel Nemesis : Rise of the imperfects

I'll be getting the disk solely for Far Cry.

What date is the next edition coming out?

1000 may just be to many. While on this subject, the pictures of quake 4 look a bit naff! blury textures and pointy heads. Its using the same Doom engine as Prey but looks nowhere as good. The new need for speed also looked a bit rubbish in the video I saw.

The idea of all those zombies sounds good but is anyone else thinking that say 1000 mite be too much? I mean come on a 1000 in a subway( not the roll place!) you wouldn't have a chance of getting away!

Dead rising just doesent do it for me! Now Possesion that sounds wicked.

Dead Rising looks awesome.

How the hell have you worked out that Xbox could run a game with about 1000 zombies on screen at one time?

I love zombies and that game just looks awesome.

Prey just looks like generic Xbox 360 shooter number 200. Nice graphics but nothing much else, I'm fed up of shooting dull aliens in their even duller surroundings.

Dead rising did look like the xbox 1 could have run it, But then so have some of the other games Ive seen vids for so far. Dead or alive sure looked good but nothing that special considering the jump in system power. Prey looks really good, I think Prey will be joining PGR3 when I get my 360!

Dead Rising looked pants? Sure you dont mean Prey? Now that looked good!!

Roll on naxt months disk as this months was rubbish apart from the 360 videos.


that was ment to say next!

I have an interactive demo of Fahrenheit. It's really quite interesting, plays like a movie but you call all the shots, and every decision you make changes how the game develops. I'll certainly be getting this one when it's released.

So is Lockdown looking like one to buy? I just didn't think it looked that good from the vid's I've seen..how are the graphics compared to Black Arrow? I found that game so sluggish sometimes. any control improvements?
