demo on xbox live?! so cool! had my eye on this for some time!

anyone got the demo? comments? mini review? Very Happy

Im a bit cautious though with this update thing and not having any recent hitachi firmware for my drive. Is it safe?

No one but MS knows if its safe or not, all you can do is try and minimize risk as much as you can i.e.: flash with the latest's hacked FW if you can. Play the game, take the risks. Me? Fuck yea! I updated and lived for today LOL

Ah you invoke such confidence in me (!) lol. Worst case scenario could be to reflash with the original firmware and then my problem(s) - if I had any - would be resolved, no? Maybe my XBL account and gamertag would be permanently banned though :/

Just downloaded it. It doesn't last very long (about 10mins) and it's not very optimised with some stutter. It does give an idea of what the game is about and the gfx are nice.

Very nice! Want the full game already! Nice level of destruction and yes it was very short but the slo mo entrance of the boss was hella cool when the car flew at me! Nice idea how the morale of your team can be affected which then affects their abilities in the field, kinda like the old UFO turn based games.

Why does every one have bad things to say about it?! Its only a demo teaser and clearly there are still refinements to be made. Plus its 4 months yet before the game is released.

Whats the worst they can do? If the worst happens change to monthly XBlive subscription, 5 quid a month and reflash, thats what Ive done, at least if microsoft ban my xbox live account Ive only lost out on 5 quid rather that 35/40. Ive still got some pikey old firmware from ages ago, I updated and no problems, I do think microsoft know in the back of their minds the reason why they sell so many 360s is because you can play copied games on it, so it would be a bit daft to start banning people or bricking consoles until theve sold enough and sales drop or stop and then they might start fucking with peoples boxes so they then have to go out and buy more.!

teaser alright, makes you want more.... but then you come to the conclusion the release is still far away

destructible environment is cool, now if somebody would take it one step further.
looks cool how you can shoot up the pillar's from the fuel station's roof, though would be even cooler if the whole roof could collapse

Dude its like a 4 month early not fully optimized teaser demo. Im quite sure the devs will clear up the lag problem before the September release.

Im quite sure he knows you mean the Area51 demo and he was, I would think comparing Counterstrike to the Blacksite demo since the way you describe it, sounds like how Counterstrike plays (for some people).
