Yes, the demo looked good for Star Wars.

But a game in 2008 that does not have coop or proper multiplayer is truly a disappointment.

Now, I can't wait for:

Call of Duty: World at War
Gears of War 2
Halo Wars
Fifa 09

I'm sure the Force Unleashed will be worth buying on both xbox and PS3. Anyone been able to compare the two consoles to see which looks better?

They are pretty identical. I actually felt that it looked better on the Xbox 360.

I was not impressed by the Uncharted demo... However I still kinda want to buy the game... just so I can have more then two PS3 games.

Mike, I downloaded this game called 1942 from the Playstation store last night for $9.99. It's a basic game with good graphics actually and it's fun. For $10 you can't go wrong. I used to pay this game in high school but it's so much better on a big screen with better graphics.

Besides, Force Unleashed is coming in a week or two and there's also Socom. I'm sure there are others so save your coin.

Also there's quite a few demos you can download for free from the Playstation store and keep yourself entertained that way.

I'll check out the demo for that. I guess I have 3 games but still... right now I've only got MGS4, Eye of Judgement, and PAIN. I'm really looking more towards disc based games though.

I think I'm gonna subscribe to Qore. I got a Official Playstation Magazine at the store today and it had a free code for last months episode of Qore. It seems pretty neat. Not to mention exclusive downloads and Beta access is always nice.

Mike, 1942 isn't like MGS4, but they have other demos like if you like that type of game. I downloaded a couple (can't remember their names at the moment) and they weren't bad.

Still 1942 is fun (even though it's basic) and you can kill sometime just shooting the crap out of airplanes, oh and bombing them too.

Right on. I'll check it out.

And you know... I'm into all sorts of crazy games.

Beautiful Katamari anyone?

Is that the 1942 made by EA Games? If so, that rocked on the PC.

I heard Katamari is good, haven't tried it yet though.

Wolv, I'm not sure if it's an EA game (doubt it though) but I did download an EA game demo last night. It was some kind of boxing game but it was dumb as hell. It even has Kim Kardashian in it which looks nothing like her but yeah, total waste of time IMO.

BTW Mike, they have a free demo of that 1942 game if you wanna try it out first.
