Xbox Live Market Place - General Discussion Thread 1

Unforgiven in 720p is 360 points - weighs in at 5.7gb

Have it downloading now

How? I can`t see credit card working with my US account and aren`t point card per country?

[watusi]

I got the Borat trailer off my US account a while back just fine - wonder if they have changed things recently

yeah tried again and its fine.

I'm assuming the only way to get points onto a us account is to buy a card and redeem the code?

[Psyduck]

I found lost planet on UK market place in the featured downloads section

[Spatial]

Really bad v-sync as well!

Can't say I saw any tearing just now.

Though I did see a guy in a massive mech land right in front of me, boost jump right over my head, land the other side and then boost off again. Excellent stuff.

Quite enjoyed it myself although the movement felt quite slow and plodding.

Demo is taken down.

Ironically, this is the special edition Demo, the one you get on the disc for placing a pre order. The one being relesed tommorrow will only have one disc.

[MartyG]

Yup seems to have disappeared from featured downloads now - I'd already added it to my list, seems that the d/l started despite it being removed.

Edit - still seems to be popping up on the graphics bit though, so maybe it removes the item from featured downloads once it's added to the queue?

[Myth]

Son of a biscuit I missed it

[MarioMark]

Anyone downloaded Super Smash Bros on the Xbox Live Arcade yet? It's called Small Arms with different characters though.

TOTAL RIP OFF!!!

[Silvergun X]

But it's damn fun to play.

I just tried small arms out. The graphics are very, very blurry and it's very low resolution stuff, but apart from that it's damn good fun!

[Ajay1986]

I thought the graphics were superb personally, the fur, fire and explosion effects are great.

[Myth]

It relies more on projectiles than SSB but it is essentially a complete clone.

[VR46]

start a First Play thread please one of ya can't wait to give it a try bit later

[MartyG]

Not really feeling the love for the game - I'm not a massive fan of SSB either, so I'm not really surprised, didn't like falling off the playing area. It looks pretty enough, the characters are nicely done, but I think I'm going to save my 800 points - which is probably just as well given I've used them for the new Oblivion expansion pack.

I was just playing around on the US video market place - the samples are quite a bit longer than I expected, seems to be quite well organised too. I can't see myself using it much, but it's a great addition to market place.

[Simmy]

So anyone managed to get any pointsonto their US accounts yet. Would love to get a couple of true HD movies onto my machine, 6 gig or not ?!

The Lost Planet Online demo is there in Featured Downloads on my UK account. I'm downloading it now
