Seemed like the Harlem Globetrotters mixed with The Three Stooges. I guess I’d rather play a real game of basketball then dribbling off people’s foreheads, kicking the ball back and forth, hackey sacking the ball, etc. I won’t be buying it.

93% as of 3:45. Now is this the bandwidth tight because of artificial limits set by M$? or cos its popular?! I for one want to see if the graphics live up to the videos I’ve seen, the gameplay if its good will be a bonus. Yeah I’ve always been a graphics whore and thats cos for video games they’re very important for how I perceive the game that and I like to see my badass nextgen console deliver badass nextgen content.

Hardly a real reason for flogging the 360 though.

You don’t pay for demos and you don’t play MP so check out games you ain’t sure about on the Net or just buy them and take them back within seven days, there you go problem solved and you don’t even need to sell the xbox.

Silver members not getting demos = games that might not be sold. Well, unless it’s a demo of a crappy game. I doubt they’re going to restrict that. If they are… I might just sell my 360, because I don’t use online multiplayer and I refuse to pay for demos.

Yes, the demo is up but it is downloading aful slow.
50 MB in 30 minutes? I never had that before, bet it is dowloading from the EA servers.
