MarketTantrik Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 ^^ You are completely uninformed. The Xbox360 version is also ready. The inly reason Epic is holding back the release is to pressure M$ to allow user created mods to be used with the X360 version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arjunsood2003 Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 i really don find this xbox originals service attractive..on our goddamn slow internet speeds, its anyways gonna take 10 hours or so..plus its much better to hav a hard copy on a cd of a game rather than on ur hardrive.. oh and u hav to to go and buy points first.. why cant they jus make the originals more easily avalable..along with the 360 games.. EDIT: crap wat am i saying..2 to 7GB! thtll take lik frikkin 2 days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarketTantrik Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Having the game downloaded to a HDD actually has a lot of benefits, not the least of which is super fast loading times. Also no fear of disc scratching and easy access to the games once downloaded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arjunsood2003 Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 ya but it has a lot of disadv. too rite.. first u gotta buy points.. then itll take ages to dload..u must of course be having very fast internet speeds..but 90% of us dont.. uselss to core console users..as they had no HDD.. im not sure but i don think a seperate hdd for the 360 is available in india yet.. if games r around, say 5GB..then pro users cant get too many of them either..

vinitwins Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 http://www.siliconera.com/2007/12/04/xbox-...cked-downloads/ With the simple trick of making a silver Xbox Live account in Japan, Xbox 360 owners were privy to advance demos like Eternal Sonata and a chance to try out unreleased games like Zegapain Not. However, even if you have Microsoft Points loaded into a Japanese account you cannot download Puyo Pop Fever or Magatama. After running through the system update I attempted to purchase Magatama. I haven’t played it before so I was looking forward to giving it a go. I got ready to expend 1,200 Microsoft Points when an error message popped up explaining the download was not available in my region. The same problem occurred with Puyo Pop Fever. I turned off my 360 and tried again, but this time the option to download the games was not present. I was able to download the freebies (themes and icons), but it appears Microsoft closed off a path to downloadable import games. did we seriously expect any different? we'll have to wait till xbox classics hit XBL India.

lastAvenger Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 We 20 gig HDD owners will be suffering. 120 Gig hdd is so damn expensive and with each Xbox Original @ 5 gigs approx, we will be running out of disk space in no time.

V From http://www.IndianVideoGamer.com/forums/index.php...ost&p=52320 Was browsing the Xbox Originals section last night. Firstly, the games are region locked --- ABSOLUTELY FREAKING STUPIDITY Secondly, every Xbox Original Game has an attached theme and gamer pic selection which can be downloaded FREE OF COST. The "Psychonauts" theme has finally replaced my Penny Arcade on my console. I believe Xbox Originals has also launched in India, but sadly, no Indigo Propehcy, which happens to be available on the U.S. XLBM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lastAvenger Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 Their next step would be to start selling Xbox360 games through Xbox Live. You can pre-order your game through Xbox Live and on the date of the release, your download will be ready. Its something like the Steam Client Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imran Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 The original title of Fahrenheit was changed to Indigo Prophecy in the United States and Canada. The change was made to avoid confusion with the film Fahrenheit 9/11.[scenes depicting sex (one of which is interactive) and other "adult content" were removed from the North American versions so the game would receive a "Mature" (17+) rating. Both the name change and editing were made at the request of the publisher. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fahrenheit_(video_game) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 There is a shower scene in the game which is partially censored in the US version (no nips). Beyond that I don't think anything else is different It's a great game btw but unfortunately the ending totally blows. It's like total WTF!!?? But the time spent getting there is totally worth it.

WhatsInTheName Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 Played Carcassonne today. Very nice, addictive, basic-strategy based game. I downloaded it for free using my US GT last month (i think during the Live Five thing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
