Xbox360 demo delayed?? No surprise...

Swifty6374d ago

I think with 360 demos and games you have to add an extra 3 monts onto the initial release date....

THELANDSOFSAND6374d ago

what?!

damn it!

why tell people it is coming out on thursday when its not. god they piss me off when they do this. hurry up MS!

The BS Police6374d ago

The Deveolpers delay it not Microosft, Microsoft just contracts them, obviously they better hury up with the game otherwise Microsoft might end up cancelling it!

TheMART6374d ago

Most of the time it's MS Live team that has to work on the demo's given to them by the producer. Often they don't know what happened to the original release date. So probably it is MS again holding it back for some reason. They want to check, double check that it's working like it should.

Not the same problems as for example with the latest movies of Kameo which were broken and had to withdrawn from marketplace to be fixed

Marriot VP6374d ago (Edited 6374d ago )

what the crap, for the last 3 weeks there's been a huge Market place dry spell. Absolutely nothing but a few Matishyu and kameo videos.

CRAP, this is dissapointing.

FamoAmo6374d ago

I have been waiting forever for this demo! It better be out tonight!! The game releases in a few weeks so if the demo ain't soon it won't even be released or will it? This ruined my day!! Thanks whoever delayed it!!

10 Commercial Flops That Are Actually Good Games

BY JOHN: There are lots of commercially successful games that are, to put it mildly, not very good. Whether they launch broken, or they’re just a cookie-cutter version of another title, some games just hit the jackpot when it comes to sales numbers.

But, what about those games that are well worth playing but don’t sell well? It can be too easy to miss a great gaming experience just because it wasn’t a commercial smash hit, despite having a strong story or interesting gameplay mechanics. This can be due to poor marketing, the timing not being right in the market or dozens of other reasons.

Here are ten games that flopped commercially but are well worth checking out.

Prey shouldn't have been connected to the original, they should've changed the name. It looked good and had decent exploration but it was way too long and the ending was trash. Definitely gets more praise in the comments than it should.

I actually hated Prey after playing the demo, for me, it felt so bad to play, I agree that it gets more praise than it deserves. Most of this list is fine though, there are some really good games on there.

Nacho_Z30d ago

I couldn't get on with Prey either, sounded great on paper but I didn't enjoy it at all. I don't think I like Arkane, tried to get into Dishonored years before and it left me cold.

Concertoine30d ago

Did you play it on ps4/xbone? If so, yeah, it played terribly on those machines. 90 second load times, horrible input lag.

I couldnt enjoy the game until it got updated for Series X

Barlos29d ago

I really want to like Prey. I've gone back to it a few times on my Steam Deck but I don't know, I just can't get into it. Mind you, I'm not the biggest fan of immersive sims

FinalFantasyFanatic29d ago

@Concertoine,

Actually it was PS4, I don't recall anyone mentioning that it was console specific at the time though.

I liked Prey (2017), but I think the original Prey was more polished and arguably better game of the two. If Bethesda had been so cheap, Prey (2017) could have trade marked as “Nightmare on Talos” or “Typhon “.

Minute Man 72130d ago

Played the demo of Prey (2007)

Never got around to actually playing it but it's BC so one day (soon) I'll hunt it down

shinoff218329d ago

I really liked prey, but I'll add I never finished. Dishonored, was a borefest for me I couldn't get into it with multiple times of trying.

gigoran829d ago

The ORIGINAL Prey sequel looked dope as F. I would have loved to have played that instead of what we got.
