Items of interest in bold


Free demos :grin:

[scooby_dooby]

You know what? That's pretty cool! Now I can take my X360 home, and DL HD trailers for all the games I'm on the fence about.

MS should make a deal with Gamespot to provide downloadable video reviews to go with the games, that would be pretty damn sweet, or OXM maybe...

[hey69]

also for live silver or only for the paying gold service?

Or download the playable demo instead for some of them.:wink:

Everyone who simply signs in a makes a Gamertag. (Silver or Gold)

[Carl B]

Pretty appealing (and seemingly with an eye towards good execution) I have to say. I find it amusing though that the movie preview is from the only studio still not on blu-ray - too funny. Again tough should add to the experience out-of-the box to have some cool things to download.

[Teasy]

This is certainly a very good thing (free downloadable demo's), though its only to be expected surely?

[pc999]

How much is the cost for the points (later when you need to buy more)?

[Master-Mold]

How much is the cost for the points (later when you need to buy more)?

Retailers sell 1600 on a card for $19.99 US, however on Live they will offer packages starting with 500 points for $5.00.

[pc999]

Thanks.

[Shogmaster]

How much is the cost for the points (later when you need to buy more)?

$20 for 1600 points IIRC.

[drpepper]

Just wondering, so these points is the currency on Live marketplace?

[scooby_dooby]

And you get 200 free with a 1year subscription to Live! i think...

[Master-Mold]

Just wondering, so these points is the currency on Live marketplace?

Yes

[Qroach]

I think you also earn points by playing games and accomplishing goals.

[scooby_dooby]

I think there are Achievement Points, and MarketPlace points.

[dubyateeeff]

I think there are Achievement Points, and MarketPlace points.

What can you do with achievment points?

[Powderkeg]

What can you do with achievment points?

Brag.

[Hardknock]

Kameo: Elements of Power (Microsoft Game Studios and Rare Ltd.)
- Winter Warrior Pack (200 points)

Are these new warriors to download!? :grin:

[Qroach]

i dunno I think these points are the same thing.

[Inane_Dork]

i dunno I think these points are the same thing.I think the monetary one is called Microsoft Points and the gaming one is called Achievement Points.

[scooby_dooby]

i dunno I think these points are the same thing.

No, because the Points you buy stuff with are points that you buy with money! Achievement points are just accumulated as you play games. IIRC every game is alloted 1000points they can distribute as they see fit. Extremely gimmicky IMO, who cares??

OT Does anyone know the extent of Live! matchmaking?

It would be awesome if you select various simple criteria for example:
Age: 18-80
Language: Adult
Skill Level: Above Average

We also had the chance to designate our Gamer Zone, which has an effect on who we'd play against should we play a game over Xbox Live. The zones were divided into Recreation, Family, Pro, and Underground. Since were all so unbelievably incredible at everything, we decided to hop into the Pro Zone, where the people you'll play against are allegedly supposed to be well behaved and skilled at gaming. The Family Zone is geared more towards those who wish to avoid the harsh realities of online gaming profanity, the Recreational Zone for more casual gamers, and the Underground Zone for those who can't resist letting curse words fly.


A little clearer.

[DigitalSoul]

How much space would game demos take up, if anyone knows?

[scooby_dooby]

A little clearer.

Hmm so I assume anyone who wants to swear gets stuck in underground? I sure hope they let me do a filter on the age really not into playing with ridiculously skilled 14 year olds...

[Skrying]

How much space would game demos take up, if anyone knows?

Depends on the game, I doubt there will be a given size. Looking at a current PC game demo, it can range from 500MB to 1.4GBs.

[J_Saint]

Prepaid point cards can be purchased at retail for $20 getting you 1600 points or you can buy them through the Marketplace blade.
