I can tell by looking at cd that it's going to be the best demo disc yet! Panzer Dragoon Orta, Splintercell, House of the Dead 3, Toejam and Earl 3, Bloodrayne, and Chase playable demos! Plus some videos, Halo 2, Unreal Championship, Transworld Snowboarding, and a Sega GT interview!

Its about time they give us a good demo disk. This one looks really good. And I'm so glad theres no time splitters demo again, or DOA :eek: Anyway.....whats up with Shenmue 2? I hear its supposed to be bigger than the arrival of Jesus and it gets such a low score. Anyway I got a pre-order last week for it and I don't care what OXM says.

Splinter Cell is not better than Halo, oxm said at the bottome of the page somewhere. It said " They are two totally different games and they both are excellent. After playing Halo for a full year, we should have scored it a 9.999"

Tiger woods got a ƒucking 9.2?


More proof that the OXM staff has their heads firmly positioned in their ásses. Its a golf game ******, the only thing that could possibly be more boring is a baseball game...

Football games should be rated under 7.0? Well if they are a carbon copy of the previous year's version with only minor graphical changes and some roster arrangements, like Madden...then it does not deserve a score above 7.0

The only reason OXM only gave Halo a 9.5 is because they were to chicken to give it a 10 because they didnt want to seem like fanboys (to late), unlike Official Dreamcast Magazine, who knew they had something special in their hands (Soul Calibur, duh!) and gave it a 10 in their first mag. Or (I know I'm not supposed to start sentences with or...) they wanted room for improvement, not realising that most people know that older games might not be better than a newer game b/c of the score it got.

Maybe this disc is just what OXM needs to get their @ss in gear. That or else they'll just rehash the demos over and over until they are despised again. But for now, thank heavens for this month OXM. I believe again, I believe!!!

96 for splinter cell is outstanding. highest rated game in the magazine ever.

i've played the demo a bunch of times and i have to say I love it massively. the gameplay, graphics, lighting, sounds, controls and the general feel to the game are amazing.
