[Destrukticor]

does the demo use the vision camera?
in any way?

[PeteJ]

It's showing now under a UK account, but you need to go to Demos by Genre - Shooter.

[dvdmike]

Its on UK now under new releases

[Geezer]

When did you start downloading?
It was very fast at first... =(

Slightly after at my post at 4.24, it was actually more like 45 minutes, I got a steady speed throughout.

I just finished the demo and it's sweet, definitely going to get this one to go with the rest of the November stuff. My wallet's crying

The only demo that was region locked was Love football.
Considering that the game is region free and that it has been released in multiple territories today , there isn't anything to worry about.

But no you can't download it using a US gamertag as the game isn;t on the US marketplace

Whoop!

Been trying to download that Chewincorn episode for ages now (just never spend enough time on my US side). Looks like its got to be Pinata night in Spags crib, will have to get some Chilli and Narchos up in there

[ChrisF]

Hehe I watched the Chewnicorn episode this morning! (finally got round to setting up my US and Japanese accounts last night). S'funny.

[VR46]

Speaking of setting up accounts for all territories, obvioulsly no-one else has thought of it, link below is currently the latest news item on xbox360.qj.net

In the case of their poster, he made a tag for Japan and America, giving him the chance to pick up downloads from both sides of the world. Just recover both gamertags, and you're good to go.

They (& South African Gaming Network) sadly don't read our forums, keep up lads !

A sign of things to come maybe.......GOW Video for Gold members only.

[Spatial]

Without a doubt.

Silver members WILL get access to this..probably in about a week. This is going to happen more and more (Gold getting things before Silver) so you may want to think about upgrading if you want all the latest and greatest trailers, demos etc.

The recent Gears Locust theme also locks out Silver members.

Live is a pay-service - I guess it was always going to happen eventually.
