They really know how to treat their paying customers like garbage. I mean how hard is it to just upload a file by clicking upload. Im not one to complain all the time just when i pay good money for a service im not getting ive every right to kick off.

Pathetic Microsoft and you wonder why Sony sell more Playstations perhaps now you know why.

So your saying that Sony sell more consoles cause they have a better online service than Microsoft,after all this is what it's about.
I'm sure Microsoft have good reasons to delay a demo,which will be more than clicking upload.Also your not paying for the demos,remember silver account holders also get the demos and they don't pay.

I wouldnt really blame MS, its more likely the developers fault it isnt out yet. I agree that its pretty messed up to tell us one thing then not have it done, and the fact that nobody told us, but I wouldnt say the service is crap. MS hasnt really dont anything yet but put out a system and offer online play. I believe the rest is up to the individual companies to get off their ass' and get this stuff over to MS. Oh well, guess I'll play some full auto online til it comes out. See you all on.

Just be patient the demo will come out soon enough, and like wingman said it not as easy as just uploading a file, and M$ don't have to put demos out it is just a bonus they do their only obligation is too keep live up and running. We never got demos with old xbox so getting the demos is just a plus in my book. The demo will be out just like I said we all need to be patient.

busboy33 · 04-03-2006, 11:26 AM

I don't know Chuck -- The Demo is supposedly done and in MS hands for a few days now. By "done," I presume its technically cleared by MS (such technical certification takes more than a few days, at least according to the developers like NinjaBees (Outpost Kaloki X)). At this point, what else is there except put on server and permit access to the file?
Don't get me wrong . . . I'm sure they have a reason. I just hope its practical and not corporate -- a delay because the Assistant Secretary for the 3rd District of Marketing and Consumer Affairs hasn't signed off on it yet would be sad.

How the heck does it take days to certfy something. They must be really slow. And by the way people with Gold accounts do pay matey.

Glock 19 · 04-03-2006, 01:18 PM

Gold accounts are same price as they were b4 downloadable demos so demos are a plus now. I had xbox live paid service since it came out been same price when I first got it.

Gee · 04-03-2006, 01:35 PM

Jeez the way some people keep moaning about the outfit demo not being released yet,you would think it was two months late.

I'm not sure I follow your logic. I've been on XBL since day one too, and yes the price has stayed the same. But with added service, what I expect to get for it has not remained the same.
If, for example, all the Achievements were erased, I would not say "well, I never had them before, so I shouldn't miss them." MS expanded the definition of XBL to include demos, and that means we should expect the same level of quality service we've been receiving all these years (which has been pretty damn good).
And no, I'm not particularly jonesing for the Outfit -- its just something new, and getting Demos off of XBL is exciting and fun. I like playing demos -- better than paying $60 for something I wont like.

warzin · 04-03-2006, 03:55 PM

I reckon more people will spend more time saying where's the demo and searching forums for answers than they will playing it when it's released. It arrives soon. Anticipation is good but don't let it spoil your view of xbox live which generally is a definite plus of the 360 and a good part of the reason I bought one. GRAW is out in 5 days, and the way i'm thinking is I don't want the demo, it's the expectation of a game that is probably why I still play games. They never quite hit the mark but fall tantalizingly close. So when you open the packaging, put the disc in the 360, and sit back with, hopefully, a big grin and the satisfaction of knowing why you bought into the next-gen experience from the beginning.

It's always the same. Once a big game arrives another bigger game promises better. So enjoy the games you have now because better things are promised.
