Its been over 4.5 hours for me downloading so far and I am at 90%. I am not complaining though because it is a free demo :D

Ok, I got to try it. I will post comments in the other thread. I feel it is very polished, BUT have issues with the interface. It looks like it is missing the ability to set way points, and other things like grouping units. I will post another thread to ask about interface stuff. Without waypoints, we are back to the old days of Warcraft 2.

Its amazing, I'm having a blast with it and can't wait to do some online multiplayer. Its REALLY polished. Color me impressed and i'm glad to see Ensembles final game will be a damn good one

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL.
I am on a Silver account and I got to download the DEMO!
SCORE!
I don't know how, but I don't care!
--
I got to play it and I was totally impressed.
It was real fun, although it seemed real easy. I haven't tried it on Heroic though.
Anyways,
I loved how they brought so much from Halo into the actual game.
How the Warthogs move and how you can use them to ram enemies.
Great fun.
Probably going to cop it.

I'm downloading it now. It's going pretty slow though.

I started the Killzone 2 download as well.

Me too. I'll have it by the time I get home tonight (around midnight). Just like the Halo Wars demo, I am going into the demo with an open mind.

this is kinda off topic, but is there a warranty on the 360 wireless adapter? Something has to be wrong with mine. I started the KZ2 download after the Halo Wars one, and I've already installed KZ but Halo Wars is only at 6%.

Note: Both are using wireless and are in the same cabinet.

Something has to wrong.

I think a year. Still, you can do this or pick up a wireless adapter.

I already have the official wireless adapter. That's why I'm angry.

The game got a very positive review from Official Xbox Magazine (a 9.0) the same score as Resident Evil 5. It's hard to imagine that they are the same quality games but at the same time its one of the most heavily biased mags in history.

 

 After playing Resi 5 demo, I would give it a 6 at best. It's amazing but Resi 5 controls are absolutely diabolicle. They are old fashioned and slow. It has the worst 3rd person controls Ive ever used. Come to think of it they are exactly the same as Resi 4 controls. It makes you wonder why the hell so many people praised Resi 4. When in reality it absolutely blew due to controls.
