The developers of Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter have confirmed that Ubisoft will be released a demo on Xbox Live Marketplace but refused to provide further details about which mode, offline single player or online multiplayer, will be featured in the demo.
I say..... |

8 weeks?? GR:AW comes out in less than 4, and the demo will probably be out before that.. I think you need to start camping out in front of your local store every morning to see if they got any new shipments. |

Need to raise the cash first.....priorities and all that, hence the 8 weeks...GRAW and 360 will have to wait, i`ll be fine playing the xbox version with all the other people without 360`s.
Feel free to send me donations, nothing smaller then £50/$50 notes please..hahah |

During his DICE session, Peter Moore touched on some key Xbox 360 issues such as shortages and Xbox Live.
Regarding shortages, he said, "Within the next four to six weeks, anybody will be able to walk into a store and buy an Xbox 360." |
|
I dont believe that. The shortage isnt the reason why the X360s arent selling. Its because the machines have problems. people hear about the problems and dont want to by bad products. |

a proven myth. xbox360 have fewer returns then the ps2 - what propaganda by Sony. Also note that the 360 have very low defect ratio - 97.0% of 360's work fine - don't believe what you read.
"According to Joystiq, only 3% of Xbox 360s are defective. Joystiq further claim this is below the industry average. The article then quotes an analyst saying that Microsoft has sold 300,000 to 400,000 units." |

That's 9000-12000 consoles that have problems. maybe that's not much for the industry, but it still hurts the consumer....you and me! |

This is an absolutely ridiculous statement.
So, you would say also......that you cannot walk into any retail establishment that would normally sell a game console and find a 360 on the shelf because they were removed because nobody is buying them?

i think it's cos of the world wide (well, 3 continents)release. i remember the PS2 came out here in UK 6 months after it was launched in Japan, and there were short of supply, not to mention Sony scam of short supply, but even by then the first UK model was version/revision 3 and yet still caused major fuckups.
anyway we're going off topic.
so check out the new video (top is latest)

redwolf, agreed, but can't say the 360 games are doing anything for me - Last time I bought a game because of graphics - never - Geometry is a great game by my standard and possibly horrible by yours. Graphics don't make games - Agreed? Explains why ps2 is popular. |

Hehe ok, i admit when i was wrong, i found a premium xbox 360 the otherday, looks like the stocks are getting through. I wonder what happened to the demo then?
Did it ever appear within the xbox live market?
end of aprill, i will have a 360 (fingers crossed) |
