what he said. rein even stated that they werent sure they were doing a demo yet period.
 
XBOX LIVE MARKETPLACE FTW.

Seriously, over a couple of weeks we'll have 2 Splinter cell demos, Phantasy Star beta, Rainbow six demo, Tony Hawks Demo and the awesome Lumines Live :D

Demos are starting to hit on a regular basis weeks before release. Me likey.

because sales figures are showing that releasing demos on marketplace usually boosts software sales noticably and it's a relatively cheap thing to do. For me, most demos have made me want to at least rent the full version of game I was interested in.
 
Sorry for kicking this, ITS NOT OUT YET but does anyone have any idea when the Tony Hawk demo will go Live?

Thx :)

Trying to download the WWE Raw vs Smackdown Demo I get an error, i.e. status code 80070003. What gives?
Just wait for the red light :lol
Ok not funny.
Try to erase the file from the system menu and try again.
Don't know what it is ? Never had any pb to download demos

This is one of the things that is really bothering me. Why in the hell do we not have a demo of one of the biggest 360 games of the year? It just seems like a wasted opportunity. Could at least upload the demo from TGS or something.

Because it's not needed? Why waste the time now? Use the energy towards every bit of polish you can get.

Gears hype will be so big that NOBODY will be undecided. People will either buy it, or not. And the 19 people who are iffy on it will get a demo, at some point.

Not enough space on your hard disc. Delete something first.

Apparently a more user friendly message for this error will be added in the next dashboard update
 
FYI, the demo of ZegapainNOT is available on the japanese marketplace. No idea if it's region locked or not.
It actually doesn't look really bad, it's very smooth at least. But the gameplay is as confusing as the first Zegapain game. Some would call it megapain, but I'm not that type. No sir.

hehehe.

The first game controlled/played so bad (and this has to be more like an expansion then a sequel considering the time frame) I dunno if I'll bother grabbing the demo. Most anime games ftl :(

well its no up on my UK account yet. :\
Look in the All Demos or Genre folders (and if it's not there, try again). I had the same thing but after trying a couple of times it was suddenly there. Xbox Live is acting kinda strange lately.

It takes a while for the content to propagate to all servers. give it an hour or two, then complain.
