theguyfromspark Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 Anyone know how much I'd get for trading in Assassins Creed at gamestation? They offered me £25 at Game just after chistmas.
Guest Stefkov Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 Cheers guys. I'm looking at just under £20 then. That's good. Another halo map pack, bit way off though. HD-DVD is so dead it's not worth buying a HD DVD drive even if there are offers Ah well, mines sat there collecting dust then.
McPhee Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 Sell it, im sure someone on here on eBay or over at AVForums will give you a decent price on it. Something down the lines of £20-£25 inc postage
Guest Stefkov Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 It was a christmas present, so not only will it not feel nice selling it after all I went through to get one, you saying I'll get that much it's not even worth selling. I'd rather it collect dust.
Noodleman Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 Tbh as you've already got one you'll be able to pick up some cheap deals on HD-DVDs over the coming months. It's not like all HD-DVD's will stop working once the format dies.
Guest Stefkov Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 I know that. I plan on getting Heroes on HD. As soon as that comes down in price there's pretty much sod all I will want for HD DVD.
ReZourceman Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 Yeah, its not a huge loss. I mean you've got like at least 5 HD DVDs, and thats cool.
Ramar Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 I know that. I plan on getting Heroes on HD. As soon as that comes down in price there's pretty much sod all I will want for HD DVD. If you only wanted heroes, why did you ask for it for Christmas.. Seems pointless to me. Have I missed the free arcade game, or they not given that out yet?
Owen Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 Turok demo on Live guys! First impressions weren't great, for some reason they chose to start the demo in the darkest place ever...'the caves', which you have to get out of...then you see green in the distance and oh my! What a excellent surprise! Graphically outstanding in my opinion, the dinosaurs and environment are excellent. The main character is quite sluggish at first but overall controls are like any-other FPS and you soon get used to them. Definately buying it based on the demo, lets hope theres a varied amount of environments around the jungle though, like swamps etc..would be cool.
BeerMonkey Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 i cant get on live still :S havent been able to since got 360 back. Not a turok fan but will download when i can...after i give burnout a go

Cube Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 Turok demo. What a lovely surprise. Downloading now.

theguyfromspark Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 Yeah, my HD DVD drive was an investment in the future of the medium... but it turned out that there's probably not much of a future.
AshMat Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 So i'm playing Ep2 for the third time (PC), messing about in Eli's little office, before you've gotta run off to shut the silo door, and after a little... information is revealed, i found this behind some boxes: I thought it was quite cool
ReZourceman Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 Turok demo. What a lovely surprise. Downloading now. AHHH! Ruleage! *downloads*
Owen Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 AHHH! Ruleage! *downloads* You technically should have quoted me as i said it first, but hey!
Cube Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 The Turok demo is pretty good. I think I'll get the final game.
Solo Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 OK here's a mini Turok demo review: Disappointing.. I didn't get any feeling of playing classic Turok. The graphics, while looking nice on player models, where bland and lifeless. After playing CoD4 a lot it's not nice to get something that looks dull and runs at 30fps (roughly). The stealth element wasn't really there, blending into the wavy clumps of grass felt silly and when I did get a good knife kill on a guard it went to third person (why) and sparks flew out of their bodies instead of blood (wtf). Then there's the weapons (a big factor in the Turok franchise). I know it's only a demo but the whole boring dual weapon thing was like a lame Halo rip-off, there weren't anything creative or fun to use. Finally the Turok mythology wasn't there, (wikipedia Turok if you want a backstory). The story and characters were relegated to a Gears of War style squad thing and it felt very straightforward like many of the 'soldier' games out there. It eschwed the sci-fi fantastical weirdness of the original trilogy. So yeah, since I think DMC 4 is out the same day, I'll give this a miss until it's cheap, what a shame.
Hero-of-Time Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 So I fired my 360 up today for the 1st time in 50 odd days and finally downloaded the update. It was weird seeing all the marketplace in its new format but I quickly got used to it. I also downloaded the demo of Turok and quite enjoyed it, I did find the movement a tad slow though.
BeerMonkey Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 so can everyone download things on there 360 then?....i must have some setting wrong or something then as i cant get online with my 360
That Guy Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 Mine was going weird for days with it signing in then the dashboard not loadning properly then it suddenly saying sign into Xbox Live. Seems to be working again now though.
Jimbob Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 Managed to get on Live again after a long struggle and all is well once again. I am contemplating downloading the Turok demo as i quite liked the previous titles on the N64, but some views of it so far sound like it isn't much good.

Well considering it doesnt cost anything to download the demo you should just check it out.
