2005-12-07 14:42:44 Need for Speed - Demo

Hi everyone,

I finally managed to get hold of a PAL Premium 360 yesterday, and had a little go after the missus went to bed (of a couple of hours).

Anyway, the reason for the post is where is the Live Marketplace demo of NFS:MW??

I saw the videos BlimBlim did a week or so ago of the demo - and up until then I'd had no interest in that series. Until then. Now I'd like to download the demo.

Have I misunderstood the Live Demo? or has just been taken down? or is it just for the US?

Cheers in advance,
Bourne

How'd you get a 360 is a better question. did you pay over 279.99?

I got one from GAME on Oxford Street. They gave me a tip-off on Monday night that there were a couple of Friday Pre-orders which hadn't been picked up - if they were still there Tuesday monring then they'd go to the first customers! So I got there for 7:45!

(I'd already pre-ordered mine months ago with HMV - but they messed it up - so last Friday when i took the day off to pick it up - I instead had a VERY rubbish day!)

By all accounts all the pre-orders run out at abuotnthe same time, so you've got a pretty good chance of picking one up from HMV/Dixons/ etc.

To try to respond to your question, thing is I can see the NFS demo and I have that even, but I can't see the Fifa and King Kong ones promised.

Just say what you mean in the first place and there shouldn't be misunderstandings like that.
