35% grrrrr god come on this is taking sooo long

They should put System Shock 1/2 on Xbox Live Arcade. SS1 can be tarted up a bit like Marathon Durandal.

This is taking ages! 17% in one hour!

Halo 3 beta was quicker!

man this game is sooooooo atmospheric, seems very smooth,

when you walk through the tunnel (you'll know what I mean), very nice, lovely graphics, from what I'm seeing here the PC version will need to run very very well too sway me tbh.

So far this is the best game I've played on the 360 even over gow, the graphics are amazing, the sound is amazing, the voice acting is brilliant, even the controls are perfect, first time I've been fully comfortable playing an fps with a pad.

I just finished playing it through & I'd second that... best graphics on the 360 so far & better gameplay than GOW imo.

That demo just turned into a pre-order

Ah well maybe I spoke too soon, it's been stuck on 49% for the past 15 minutes

3% in the past 28 minutes = fail

slambo69 · 13 Aug 2007 at 12:53

Leon, thats a glitch, its not actually done 50%.

tastyweat, if you can, I suggest you go play 5 mins of gears then come back and say that....

leon4112 · 13 Aug 2007 at 12:54

shoosh don't ruin my hope

fred_easey · 13 Aug 2007 at 12:58

People who've played the demo - What's the controls like?

I've played Halo on Xbox and found the controls fine (eg gamepad for FPS).

Would you put Bioshock in the same bracket? (eg is aiming ok?)

(I'm still deciding between new PC + Bioshock or buying a 360 and Bioshock

)

52% done, was 49% done like 45 mins ago. :rolleyes:

Wyrdo · 13 Aug 2007 at 13:00

Ah well, setting it off now. Hopefully the download will be done when I get back from work tonight

Can't wait to try this!

The Pat · 13 Aug 2007 at 13:00

I'm on 53% :mad:

So much for downloading when it went up. :/

WTF does the gold membership actually pay for ?, this is pathetic.

Edit: Oops double post oddness

This always happens when a popular demo hits it seems, very frustrating

ic1male · 13 Aug 2007 at 13:02

Good God. Mine's been on low-power downloading for 5 hours now and only managed 25% on an 8Mbit line.

I just dont understand why they don't add more servers and bandwidth? This kinda crap is happening pretty often now and ms still seem to not be bothered. :mad:
