Tales of Vesperia demo released for Xbox 360

The Tales RPG franchise celebrates its tenth anniversary with the release of Tales of Vesperia™, exclusively on Xbox 360®. Tales of Vesperia brings the popular real-time RPG fighting system and a brand new cast of characters into a world struggling with an ancient technology, the blastia, and the empire that controls the blastia.

The game follows the adventures of Yuri, a former Imperial Knight and the colorful members he meets along the way. Yuri travels with Repede, his loyal canine friend; Estelle, a sheltered noble looking to explore the world and find her path; Karol, a young member of the Hunting Blades Guild; and Rita, an outspoken mage researcher.

The beginning of the demo takes place shortly after Yuri and his companions have met up with Rita. After hitting a snag with the empire’s soldiers, they must detour through the forest battling ferocious inhabitants and a huge monster that has been attacking the neighboring villages.

Strategically string together sword combos and use your artes (magic) and items to their fullest potential to make it through the forest alive. Using your over limit allows you to string together even more attacks, and tailoring the battle strategies of your companions can give you that extra edge in battle.

In Tales of Vesperia, the artistic style is so detailed and animated, it truly blurs the line between animation and gaming. Try the demo available on Xbox LIVE Marketplace now.

Fallout 3 not to get demo: Bethesda tell us why

When a game developer hypes up the future release of a game they normally release a game demo just so you can gets a feel for the game however; for those of you who was looking forward to a game demo for Fallout 3 I am sad to say that there will not be one.

Bethesda who is the developer of Fallout 3 said that they are not able to use just a portion of the game in a demo version, Bethesda spokesperson Pete Hines has this to say “When you build it as one thing, there’s no way to portion off a section and have it stand on its own without putting the whole game in the demo, which we’re just not going to do.”

I just do not understand why Bethesda have this view on a demo of Fallout 3, there are huge amount of other huge game titles out on the market that released a demo first you just need to have a look at the biggest demo on the market Gran Turismo 5. I think that Bethesda have shot themselves in the foot, releasing a game demo of Fallout 3 could have helped with sales figures when the full game comes on the market, unless they have something to hide about the game, all seems very strange to me.
