Don't know if this has already been posted, but the new demo for Fifa - World Cup is up on the Xbox Live Marketplace. There is also a new trailer for Lost Planet.

I looked earlier for a demo and could only see the two trailers listed, clearly I need to look again

Woo, the WC demo is up there atm (05:10). It's a fat 644mb though but I'll give it a shot since I'm desperate for a game. Ta for the heads up!

I wish other companies would follow ea's example, they always seem to get demos out fast

Cool, I'll download this and give it a try tonight, will be interesting to see how it plays compared to RTWC.

well its miles better than the PC version, looks like they took the PC version from the ps2, they certainly didn't base it on the 360 edition

Ive actually bought this game and the graphics may not be as good as RTFWC but the gameplay is miles better imo...

ooo brill! Downloading now...

Edit: 2nil up at half time against brazil!

Gameplay is a lot better that RTFWC, but still a fair bit off pro evo. Graphics arnt so brilliant either, but im having fun!

I've got the full PC version but its really poor tbh. The menus are annoying really to navigate etc and it all just feels odd. Has any more people tried both the x360 and PC version? and is they much between them?

I'm pretty sure the menu system will be the same, they tend to suck big time in EA Sports games. Totally unintuitive.

I'm sure this demo wont have the frustration factor of some of the full games' challenges, that would just put everybody off

possibly the worst Fifa game ive ever played imo, and every slide tackle was a foul, which was kinda lame

Really didnt enjoy it, Demo deleted

/edit

RTWC played better imo

After playing both RTWC and the new game (full version), I actually thought RTWC was better.

The new game improves on framerate, content and stadium graphics, but personally I found it a backward step in all other areas. I even thought RTWC played better (which is saying something) and also dont think it had as many bugs.

Psycho Ned · 4 May 2006 at 16:21

Yeah I didnt think much of it either

Agree about the slide tackles thing I got Owen sent off and about 3 people booked in the 45 minutes all from slide tackles

Come on Konami put us out of our misery next week and show off some PES6 X360 lovelyness

OT: is anyone else finding the downloads really really slow at the minute? trying to download Top Spin 2 and its taking ages its only 490MB as well.
