Last year, there was some free content, a week of XBL free, demo's from the floor available for download, trailers, interviews...etc...its basically as close to being there as possible.

Last year's BIH was good, so it's nice to hear that it's happening again this year. Maybe that's the week Bomberman gets released. I'm sure there will be some cool/free stuff for us to DL. BTW I do remember the beating XBL took with everybody downloading left and right. It took me over an hour just to DL Uno!

Bringing it Home '06 was the best non-game use of XBox Live to date. Getting the Halo 3 trailer on Live right as MS was giving their presentation was pretty amazing. The assloads of trailers and previews, in addition to the daily overview videos were great.

Last year we got Doom out of nowhere, I wonder if they have another surprise lined up for this one.

Hopefully their servers will be more ready for it this year.

you can probably get Ultimate Doom and Doom 2 for less than $10.

so you would take little increasing numbers next your gamertag over an extra game, years worth of mods for both (including graphical upgrade packs like z-doom..or was it called j-doom...i forget), and better control?

if you answer yes to that question, then you're a complete slut. Sorry, it needs to be said! :lol:

The only one I remember being taken down was the original Test Drive Unlimited demo, but Atari replaced it with a much better demo before the title's release.

They made an intial claim that all the BIH home content would be removed after the event closed, but they never followed through. I know it was up at least through June.

got it.

1. the guy said achievements are better than the ridiculous amount of free content you can get with $10 for doom on the PC. c'mon, he needed to be put in his place. :lol:

2. How is this flame bait? I don't think anyone's going to argue that Doom on the PC isn't a much better value. they charged 400 points for the game and 400 points for the nostalgia factor. Not saying it's a bad game or that all PC FPS' are better.

They were fast if you downloaded in the middle of the night. Don't download during peak hours.

Now that the 360 can go into power-save download mode though, it may not matter.

Technically it's there, but it's not Enumerated so it's not visible. It's only up for things like licensing testing and such. You'd need our build of The Impostor to get it.

Edit: We are literally just waiting for E3 to start here in the office, so my apologies if any of us seem a bit off. The waiting is killing us.


Man, imagine if a torrent of games is put up....but I would just be happy with a ton of announcements.

Ah...you're right. For some reason I thought it was the Contra that appeared on Super NES, now I know that what I was thinking about was "Contra III: The Alien Wars".

Sonic and Golden Axe are nowhere near interesting enough to be announced at something like this IMO. Already on the Wii and countless collections and nobody cares. Unless it's part of a huge list of stuff I guess, that would be cool.

Marathon would be pretty damn impressive though. Especially if it was all the versions combined as well as had online play (which I would assume would be a must).

After reading IGNs impressions of the e3 demo, I'd guess that they won't. Apparently the demo has some pop-up and a few bugs.

golden axe means awesome! sonic is a plus too...

nice... but nothing super crazy like Doom as stated before.

also, stay away from super contra... from what I've heard from people who have played it (the XBLA version), it's super horrible.

Apossum
07-10-2007, 07:58 PM
I sure hope golden axe, sonic, and Super C aren't the "surprise" releases...

I'd like to check out marathon, but I fear that for such an old game, it would be outdated for someone who doesn't have the nostalgia factor going for them...

If Doom played too old-timey for you, Marathon won't be much fun. However, the exploration elements and story are phenomenal.

Hell, I'd be happy if they ported "Pathways Into Darkness" to XBLA.

07-10-2007, 08:20 PM
Depending on the conference, the releases could be major. If Microsoft announces a partnership with Sega to toss on their entire Genesis back catalog, updating the graphics, adding online play, and charging $5 a game...it'd be a direct "Fuck you" to Nintendo.

All that speculation being said, I doubt its going to happen. We'll maybe get these intial releases and Streets of Rage 2 and Sega's arcade contribution would be relegated to the occasion Sonic game.

ditto.



If they fix the miserable load times on that game, add custom entrance themes, and have Razor Ramon and/or Demolition as legends, then I'm sold. Otherwise, they can GTFO.

They canned GM mode altogether, so I'm already leaning on the side of "Gamefly-it-until-I'm-bored-with-it"

However, I might actually get this Day 1 (or Day -3, as I did with 07 ;) ) if they implement your wants.

I sure hope golden axe, sonic, and Super C aren't the "surprise" releases...

You obviously know what you are talking about though, or you wouldn't have mentioned PiD ;)

It's been ages since I'd played the game, so you're right. It predates 3D FPS, however.

I just discovered the "Aleph One" project for the Mac, so I can play all the Marathon games to my heart's content, for free. Huzzah!

There's also a new Marathon mod (Resurrection) for Unreal Tournament Mac. I'd like to try that out, too.

But, to keep this XBLA related, it will be great to see a classic Mac developer (even if *snif* they aren't anymore) get their amazing games shown to the mass public that worships them now.

EDIT: to keep it more E3 related, get these filthy hippies offa the stage!

PiD was highly underrated for what it was.

I'm guessing the Halo 360 is an Elite as well. I honestly think its striking in design - especially the gold hdd highlights... I imagine it will sell well too (even as such a niche product). I honestly did not feel excited at all to play that line up of games this holiday season, or maybe its because I'm feeling jaded. Some of the demos on stage made my anticipation for the games deflate (PGR4 inparticular...) Does anyone know whether GoW will have the new content available for DL? Bah humbug... maybe tomorrow will be more exciting.

Okay, the close-ups of the Halo 360 look much better than what was shown at the presentation (still looks ugly IMO, however), but WTF is up with those really ghay looking controllers. I'm guess M$'s cheap attempt at appealing to kids.

Honestly, every game-play demo of the games flat out rocked for me. I don't know maybe it's me, but every time a game is shown nowadays, it's some lame ass, out-of-context video montage to some song or soundtrack, that looks nothing how the game really does.

Watching the vids, my interest in PGR4 picked up immensely & is at an all-time high with Halo 3 & Assasin's Creed.

Most of the footage shown at the conference is now on XBLM- without the long and boring commentary.

I thought it was interesting that MS apparently perfected the use of animatrons for their E3 presentation. That Bell model was a real piece of work...

Well I just woke up. I don't see why everyone is giving this press conference so much hate. Microsoft didn't bring that many surprises, but they did bring several good to great looking games that as Moore said over and over again, we'll be playing in 2007. Short on surprises, but pretty decent content.

Edit: Also was I the only one who thought at the start of the RE 5 trailer we were seeing the announcement that MGS 4 had been ported?

IMO, this E3 for Microsoft was about delivering the goods. Instead of building up hype for games that will be available in 2008-2009, they simply delivered the goods on what will be available in 2007.

I liked it since it was less bluster and more games.

I figured people weren't clapping like nuts because it was filled with professionals..who were probably too busy taking notes and such to go crazy.

I downloaded the Halo 3 trailer...not to sound like Zew but...shit's hot.

Ha, professionals at E3? Maybe the changes have worked because in years past those keynotes have been about the most unprofessional settings for supposed journalists. They're right not to clap or get that excited. This is a press conference for assembled media (supposedly). All that ridiculous cheering that has gone on in the past is one of the things giving "game journalism" such a bad name.

Maybe this will help reverse the course.

That's exactly what I was saying. And yea, I'd consider this year's E3 to be mostly filled with professionals.

What the hell ever happened to Mutant Storm Empire? They showed it a lot, and playable at X06. And it's nowhere to be seen, as far as I can tell, at E3.

For those of you that don't know, Mutant Storm was the Geometry Wars type game that was was better than Geometry Wars, but nobody bought it because it was $10.
