hilariously bad

Very nice models!

How am I supposed to run this one? I just see a bunch of python script files. Oh, and it's a wild demo...

I see, your avatar should have been hint enough. ;)

I said it on the party and I say it again: Since Xbox is a pc people should vote like it is a pc-production. On pc it wouldn't get this feedback it got on the party - only for beeing a console-demo. I like console-demos, but this is not my style.

MadenMann: That said, I can sincerely conclude that you are a retarded fool; if you don't have the technical insights to draw a decent conclusion about hardware and it's possibilities in a certain context, then shut your fucking dumb retarded mouth. Thank you.

Oh and uh.. come on guys.. next time I want to see Rush Hour ][ :)

teh okkie's coming

wrong category :-(

we løøøøøv you

oh and: I second plek, in everything

2004 and plek still aint changed..who can second him on anything..

plek any time you want to meet for a beer, im here ;)

i'm just getting tired of people chanting that the damn thing is a pc, it makes one look so foolish :)

Following your (ahem) logic about the xbox being a pc, that would make the Amigas either an Atari ST or a wanna-be Apple Macintosh. Have fun on the slow bus, retard.

and izm:

Very sweet XBox demo.

Some really nice ideas here.

First of all. It is making me smile when some ppl here are saying "The XBOX is a PC". Reality is: It is LIKE a PC, but still there are a lot of differences. About the demo: Well. Someone could have got more out of the box, considering it has much more horsepower than expected. But I guess it is quite ok, considering that there are not many XBOX productions outthere. Btw. The demo was done with the official XDK. I don't want to ruin it all. But code performed with the XDK is under Microsoft license and I have my doubts that the coder of this demo has an official license. Therefore the code would be signed :)

Ah yeah. That means more or less said: The distributing of this code is illegal

but not backtraceable since xdk's are leeched from xds.xbox.com and thus do not carry around a license-specific tag, making it hard to identify the source of trouble, and thus not profitabl for them to adequately research these things. and even if the coder of this demo has an official license, this action would be plain illegal.

besides, you really don't want to use anything else besides the xdk (and perhaps some extra (gpu) info).

besides that, 'much more horsepower than expected' really has it's limitations; the cpu might not be slow, but memory access is, in practice, rather horrible, the gpu has it's culprits besides the fact that it really doesn't even come close to the GS when we're talking about fillrate. so if we're talking expensive discomapped opaque polies.. elsewise, mwoah.

to put it short: big deal :)

"besides the fact that it really doesn't even come close to the GS when we're talking about fillrate"
the GS' fillrate is a pretty theoretical value to compare the xbox gpu's with, because a lot of it goes to waste doing in 3 or more passes what the xbox can do in one, but well :)

Clearly brilliant.

ryg: that is true, but in practical situations i haven't seen such fillrate-wise advantages (our cross-platform rendering system ofcourse sports that very difference between the PS2 and Xbox implementation) coming from it, probably mainly because multilayer polies aren't drawn all that much yet; but particle systems have once again proven to be real killers. extensive usage of them (as in legacy of kain: defiance or the latest lord of the rings game, both out on ps2 and xbox) resulted in the xbox gpu choking every now and then, and the ps2 version, even though it (ofcourse) looks shittier, easily grasping it.

the 'nulpunkt' would probably come a lot closer when the artists would've used lots of multilayer polies, thats a point, but what if they didn't? :) the difference is just quite big.

i dont have an xbox

this demo sux a lot... very ugly
btw, some are blabling about the xdk licensing... but the trouble stay the same on pc... i don't u're going to pay for visual studio... and don't talk about gnu, or something else...

there is a notable difference, but you probably haven't read either one of them and are probably basically too stupid to grasp their contents anyhow.

video (or emulator :)) plz

TEH ROBOTS ARRR CUMMING!

I haven't seen this but I'm voting it up anyway as I have been informed that there's Okkie content

Nice XBOX demo.

Well, a piggy because it's repeating and somewhat boring, but at least the robot rules

and now, a world record attempt:
commenting the demo while watching it!

...eww he's puking letters.
...wow headbanging robots.
...OMG HES COMMING
...no no fish suck.
...wow... a new style of rollercoasters. he must have insane fun in there...

...that's all? anyway the music was ok.

Ok, let's give it a second chance.

Shortly after my first comment I've got a mail, where I could read some facts about xbox. Ok, then it is not that easy to do s.th. on xbox like I thought before. But I think there should be more possible. If this were a demo for ps1 or saturn or so I would say "Yes! Rocks!". But 733 MHz should do more.

And allow me one question: Where is the megademo? 2mins and 6 scenes...

But the music rocks. :)

nothing interesting

do you, sincerely, have a clue about ps1 or saturn hardware caps and infrastructure?

that remark is once again so damn out of scope.

not that i don't agree that an xbox can do much more, but that's something completely different.

MEGA should be enough for everybody!

still very good!!!!

Robomazing.

TEH RÄBÅT IS KÖMMÌNG!!11

(fish are not aware)

so so

I like the robot. I want to hug it
