Unlike VC, XBL has demos, which would be nice in deciding what games tickle your blown out butthole
I know. I played the Omega 5 demo and I want it. I just wanna know which ones most EB members play.

They dont play XBL, otherwise they'd volunteer to play Puzzle Fighter

OH YOU JUST WAIT UNTIL I GET PAID

Yesterday, I bought Omega Five, Castlevania: SOTN, Puzzle Quest and Puzzle Fighter. I've got the basic free crap like Hexic, Uno and Aegis Wing. I spent a lot of time playing Pac-Man CE and Carcassone when those came out. TMNT Arcade was also worth playing co-op with my brother. Worst purchase so far was Street Fighter II.

How is Uno free

Its available when you buy a Vision Cam... or any sort of bundle, usually comes with some free games

The Heavy Weapon demo is fucking awesome. I'm gonna buy that soon.

My favs other than that:

Pac-Man CE
Puzzle Quest
Marble Blast Ultra
Castlevania
Puzzle Fighter
Geometry Wars
Streets of Rage II is also fun (and better than TMNT Arcade)

(I haven't downloaded the Omega 5 demo yet)

Got me a 4000 pt card, and got Carcassonne, Puzzle Quest, Pinball FX, and Space Giraffe.

Heavy Weapon is fuk awesome

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #68 on:** January 17, 2008, 11:28:16 PM »

What's the deal with HW? Can you beat the game on that demo as long as you don't get a Game Over? I got up to the 4th or 5th level.

I really think O5 is the better package, I could see HW getting dull. I'll get it when it goes Hits.

CajoleJuice · « **Reply #69 on:** January 18, 2008, 12:16:05 AM »

I'm about to play the Omega Five demo now.

Edit: Yeah, that was short and totally awesome.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #70 on:** January 18, 2008, 12:24:50 AM »

What sold me on Omega Five is the amazing engrish.

TEH GWRASHUL FAHTRIS

It sounded like my fat disgusting suitemate.

I nailed that 30 second combo achievement in my first playthrough

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #73 on:** January 18, 2008, 12:37:58 AM »

I'm awful at it - as I am in most shooters, but it's fucking fun as hell. Maybe CajoleJuice can team up with me.

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #74 on:** January 18, 2008, 12:40:04 AM »

No online co op. Or is he near you too?

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #75 on:** January 18, 2008, 12:40:58 AM »

WHAT?!

I will never beat this game now. $:-\$

You can crash at my place, but beware, I have hardwood floors!

Could you get me a job at your Gamestop, too?

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #79 on:** January 18, 2008, 12:51:34 AM »

Yes! You could be making $8.50/hr!

CajoleJuice · « **Reply #80 on:** January 18, 2008, 12:53:10 AM »

Wooo, that's more than half of what I make now! By 50 cents!

I've got the 30 second bonus combo and the 10 second grabble combo, but I still can't beat the second level.

:'(

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #82 on:** January 18, 2008, 01:33:50 AM »

Where'd you get the grapple one?

I've only made one run, got through stage 1 without dying but fucked up massively halfway through stage 2.

The big robot thing that shoots ice at you. You can grapple onto it's head.

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #84 on:** January 18, 2008, 01:41:01 AM »

Figured that'd be the solution, I tried grappling him a few times but it would let go. Was I pressing RT instinctively to retract or does it pop off if you move too far away?

Beezy · « **Reply #85 on:** January 18, 2008, 03:00:48 AM »

Played some demos and I've decided that I'm gonna get Omega 5, Puzzle Fighter, and some other 400 point game.

CajoleJuice · « **Reply #86 on:** January 18, 2008, 10:12:27 AM »

MARBLE BLAST ULTRA

Both, I think. If you press RT again it retracts, but I think if you get too far away it comes loose too.

The demo was only a friggin tutorial.

Is it really good?

T234 · « **Reply #90 on:** January 18, 2008, 02:36:46 PM »

The stage designs get a LOT better. I was nervous too, but trust me, the full game is amazing.

CajoleJuice · « **Reply #91 on:** January 18, 2008, 02:37:29 PM »

I like the game a lot. The single-player is decent enough for $5, and then you have the awesome online multi.

Beezy · « **Reply #92 on:** January 18, 2008, 02:39:25 PM »

Alright. I'll make it my 3rd game. I bought a 1600 points card after work today.

T234 · « **Reply #93 on:** January 18, 2008, 03:15:04 PM »

Be sure to post impressions.

Keep this in mind: the demo's stages are the most basic ones of their respective tiers.

Saint Cornelius · « **Reply #94 on:** January 18, 2008, 03:16:53 PM »

We gotta play some Marble Blast Ultra up this weekend, gentlemen (and any other games you might be interested in)! Maybe some Worms, Carcassone, etc?

T234 · « **Reply #95 on:** January 18, 2008, 03:22:27 PM »

Hellz yeah corny. Most of my XBLA experience is pre-this-past-summer, and I've never played most of my XBLA games online.

Saint Cornelius · « **Reply #96 on:** January 18, 2008, 05:55:40 PM »
