Not at home right now, but is the VP demo like the stupid one at the kiosks where you have to watch the pinatas talk for like 10 minutes?

No this is actually a Playable Demo. The other one was called an Interactive Demo.

Ah, so that kiosk demo wasn't even a real demo per se? Heh, I didn't even stick around to find out because I got tired of just staring at the screen doing nothing. Thanks for the answer.

The interactive demo (as Microsoft calls it) was more designed for kids and their families.

So Bobby can say "Hey daddy! Lookit! Funny talking ba-ear!"

I hope the folks that play the actual demo enjoy it.

[quote name='mr ryles']I tried downloading that GRAW2 picture pack last night and I kept getting errors.[/QUOTE]


I was getting the same for the Reaper stuff... I just waited a few hours and re downloaded em and all was ok.
 
VT3 was ok...still am more fond of the Top Spin controls.

Is the UEFA demo an actual football game? From the sounds of it, it seems more like a card-based stuff and then maybe I get to play 5 minutes of football. Anyone care to fill me in so I don't spend time downloading it if it's mostly card-based?

There is an intro video that talks about the card stuff that will be in the game and unless I'm mistaken it says something like feel free to try out the cards in the demo. But I couldn't see where to see the cards or use or do anything with any cards so I have no idea. To me the demo was just playing the game. Its one half of a match between Barcelona and Arsenal.
 
The VT3 demo was fun. The only problem was I was so used to Top Spin I kept trying to play it like that game. Not a good idea. Got owned like 5 matches in a row before I adjusted. I had planned on getting the game before (I had it reserved), but the demo reassured me.

yeah same here, I played like six matches before I finally started getting the hang of it, hopefully theres a lot of features in it.
 
The reviews on VT3 are a bit lackluster. Basically, the career mode blows. You play the same pros over and over....no made up people like Top Spin. I did like the gameplay, but they played similiar I thought.
 
MLB 2K7 pics and themes are up but they are only showing love to the AL west so far... At least they don't have the crappy 2k7 at the bottom like last years did! That division pic set is 100 points and they have a 2k7 sports pic set for 60. Themes are 150 lol just make your own.....

Go Reds!

Can someone explain to me why Aquaman was put on Video Marketplace? It is a pilot that is like 2 years old that was never picked up. Why should anyone want to pay for that?

The reviews I have been reading have been pretty good and said the career mode is pretty good. Where did you hear that it's bad?
 
Gotta Dload that. I only saw one show, but it was hilarious.

As for themes, why do so many of them look like some half-assed attempt made in photoshop?
