New OXBM demo disc and Mag.

This disc SUCKS. I want something good for once.

PLAYABLES-
Crazy Taxi 3= SAME SHIT, it looks like crap too.I think the DC could do this game. We can get the DC games REALLY cheap...

Hunter- Had it, played it. Demo is fairly long. Good for you guys that havent seen it yet I guess.

DOA3 booster pack... gee again?

Street Hoops- This game SUCKS. NBA Street craps all over this. 4 players is nice though.

Outlaw Golf- sucks if you played Hot Shots Golf 3. The graphics arent bad. Hottie golfers are always good. But it plays shitty.

Thats it for playables. How wonderful thay are. 5 whole games. JOY!


Videos-
Bruce Lee- nice and long and lots of footage. Looks promising.
Quantum Redshift- bad quality video. Looks ok. Kinda dissappointed.

Otherwise theres just a bunch of shit on the disc that nobody will care about. The Top Ten plays are really fucking stupid again.


Check out the POD section. "Pillar Of Death" is rather amusing Halo piramid killing.


The issue itself isnt too bad. They talk about all kinds of good Xbox Live stuff. Lots of Metal Gear Solid 2 info. I didnt know it comes out on Xbox 1st. Bumpmapping... hurray! Apparently theres some Snake stories or something and you get to fight some bosses from the 1st game. Cool.

The Mag is good, the disc sucks. And no, Crazy Taxi 3 is not good.

I agree about CT3... very been there/done that, but I disagree with the disc being bad. I hadn't played any of the games on it, and liked being able to try them, even the ones that suck. BTW: I don't see how HSGolf 3 was better... they're both 'wacky' golf gamesand both suck.... :p

and they include the booster thing regularly for awhile for people who don't buy every issue. Makes sense to use the space if companies aren't making more demos to fill the space.


The mag was great (as usual). MGS2:S.... Doesn't fix the story, that bad... but it lets you play as Snake, that's good! That still doesn't fix the sory, that's bad, but it comes with a bajillion VR missions that feature really cool shit! That's good! Buying this would support Kojima as well as milking franchises, that's bad. But it has snakes tales mini scenerios! But they don't connect with the story. That's bad. Can I go now?


So bored....

I haven't played CT3 yet, but it looked like shit in the movies on the last disc. Why does it look like the wheels are not connected to the car in any way what-so-ever? They look like floating discs.

I can't believe they aren't making it look better.

Man, Outlaw Golf was a letdown. But enough of that. Did any of you see the screens for BC? Damn, that's one impressive looking game! Xbox games are starting to look amazingly good. I think as the year winds on the hardware gap between the Xbox an PS2 is going to become more and more apparent. Heck, looking at some of the screens in that issue I'd say the PS2 is a full hardware generation behind. Not that any of that matters and the PS2 will continue to dominate by a huge margin because people buy what they're told to.....

Oh! and did anybody catch that blurb about DOA vollyball? Topless mode rumor!:)

Yea, I caught it..,it made me rather angry. Can't games be games without the freaking porn?! What the Hell is wrong with them?! I'm glad I never bought DoA3, because I'll not support a programing team that panders to screw-off morons (that was not directed at you).

Ummmm... Games don't have porn for the most part. On American consoles, no games have porn. I say at least bare boobies are long overdue.:)

Well, I say they keep'em covered. If you want it, fine. I'll just not purchase those particular titles. ;)

They really should stop beating around the bush (pun intended) and just go ahead and make DOA: The Interactive Porno

We all know it would sell like hotcakes ;)

I agree. I'd love to see how well that game would sell if all the chicks were in fur coats.Gameplay my ass.

What's the verdict on multiplayer in Crazy Taxi 3 - in there or not ??

But then they'd get all hot and sweaty, and have to cool down eventually ;)

Seriously though, who saw those BC screens? I'm really psyched about what the Xbox is starting to show us.

BC looks nice, but I dunno about how fun it will be...

Exactly what I was thinking.

yeah BC does LOOK good. But the gameplay sounds kinda... eh. We'll see though. Wow, I'm suprised anyone is bitching about boobies. Yeah its almost useless to do but why not try it? Nobody has done it before. Hell, I think some games could use some nudity and REAL swearing. GTA3 could have been even better with screwing nude whores and constant FUCK OFF from people you try to run over.

Dave Mirra XXX should be right up your alley ;)

Hey, I just picked up an OXBM demo disc - it doesn't have a CT3 demo on it, so it must be last months - and it skips and skips and takes absolutely forever to load! And to top it all off, the music cut out entirely right in the middle of playing the DOA3 demo (which isn't really a bad thing, I suppose ;)). I wiped the disc off and inspected it very closely, and noticed no imperfections at all.

This is the first OXBM demo disc I have ever tried - is this the norm for these things? Has anyone else had any trouble with these discs? Did I get a bad disc? O_o I just bought my XBox last night, and was so excited to be able to try out a bunch of different games on the demo disc, and then this happens. Dammit.

HS3 is better cause Outlaw is unplayable. I really don't see where these companies thaink that its a good idea to make you use the freakin analog stick "track-ball style" to hit the ball. HS3 lets you use a 3 click system, that insures that nothing robs you af a shot except for lack of skill. I mean, would you rather play.... shit, ANYTHING with a trackball instead of a D-Pad? I mean, even fucking Centipede is better with a joystick than a freakin trackball!

I think they've always been that way. I never saw any connecting struts in CT or CT2, but I never cared enough to really inspect that to make sure.

And since I finally bought DOA3 I need that booster pack, so I'm glad it's still being packaged in. Sucks if I had a subscription, though.

I also picked up an S-controller today, very nice. The d-pad friggin' rocks, though I need to break it in first. However, I do one complaint: the b&w buttons suck. They're indented into the pad, which makes them utterly useless for an action game that might require them to pressed fast, and the black button is way out of the way. The white one could possibly be pressed in a nice motion going down with the thumb, but that black one is way the hell over there.

In any casem DOA3 controls nicely with it, now, to go test GunValk...

LOL!! Damn, that intended pun really was the icing. Great post. :-)
