I think I made a mistake trading in my XBOX because I'm dying to play some of these demos.

My buddy is bringing his XBOX home next weekend and we are going to go over inch of this disc.

I just hope The Suffering demo isn't the same one as last time.

Unfortunately, I don't know yet. The lamest message I have ever seen for a demo popped up on me: This demo is not avail for HDTV. You must go to the Xbox main menu & change your settings to 4:3 to play this demo.

Not an exact quote put pretty close.

I have never had that message. Why make a demo that can't be used by all TVs whether stretched or whatever. This coming from a company (LucasArts) that supposedly pushes boundaries in technology?

So I have not tried it yet. Irritating.

Need For Speed is a lot of fun. It handles a little slower than Burnout but that's not really a bad thing. The police chatter seems completely real and is pretty funny. I found myself laughing out loud & cursing the cops as they seem to use good tactics to take you down.

L.A. Rush - didn't spend long with this one except for knocking down the Hollywood sign. Kinda dull to be honest after playing Need for Speed.

Land of the Dead = crappy. Handles poorly and it just seems like a Playstation One game. It appears Stubbs the Zombie is the one to wait for.

Marvel Memesis - Good graphics but fighting games aren't my favorite. Seemed okay for what it was trying to accomplish. It seemed a little hard to control your guy but I did not spend too much time with it.

NCAA Football 2006 - Play last year's championship as it should have been: USC vs. Auburn. I played as Auburn and they won by the way.

The Suffering 2 - appeared to be the same demo which is fine since I will definitely play the whole game once it comes out.

Did not try the new Arcade demos and the features & video showcase were pretty thin.
