So says Eurogamer

http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=66484

Capcom informs us that the Dead Rising demo is due to go live on Xbox Live Marketplace this morning at 11am BST.

According to a Capcom spokesperson, play is limited to 15 minutes in one section of the mall. We don't know anything else, like file-size, but we thought we'd let you know anyway. We'll update this item will full details just after 11 (when you'll also notice a slight dip in productivity).

fap fap fap, but that's like.. in a few hours!

sprsk · Aug 4, 2006

thats like IN LESS THAN AN HOUR!

Shogmaster · Aug 4, 2006

Is that Europe only?!? I don't have a European account....

Nino · Aug 4, 2006

Please let this be false, I won't get to play it for the next 36 hours or so.

(would be mega awesome if it was true, seriously)

Before the weekend?

And if a publisher says so, most of the time it is delayed. Microsoft usually spends more time than expected signing the demo. Microsoft gets the blame while the publisher wrongly announces the releasedate of the demo.

I'd laugh so hard. Seriously, that would be the funniest thing evar.

squicken · Aug 4, 2006

I wouldn't think it would be a UK exclusive. Eurogamer probably gave the time as BST because they are, you know, in Europe.

Nikashi · Aug 4, 2006

Okay, because people in #ga were signing up for UK accounts and I was all WTF.

sprsk · Aug 4, 2006

i signed up for a uk account and got a free month of xbox live gold.

hot. maybe ill pick up bombermans tomorrow.

also, to sign up i used the post code for buckingham palace lol

Jonnyram · Aug 4, 2006

Well now I've signed up for a UK account, I can buy SF2 if I want, I guess.

Ninja Kn1ght · Aug 4, 2006

sweet, that rocks. There has been a lot of great demos on the marketplace lately.

VALIS · Aug 4, 2006

Can you sign up for an out of region silver account if you already have a gold account in another region? Mini-tutorial plz!

pilonv1 · Aug 4, 2006

Yes. All you need is an address.

Vyse The Legend · Aug 4, 2006

Awesome. Now the question is: Should I download this and give it a spin or just wait 5 more days and keep it all fresh? Hmmm.

Nino · Aug 4, 2006

I swear to god, if this is one of those deals where the publisher is ready to release the demo but MS isn't (the Prey demo comes to mind)... There's no telling what I might do.

This makes the whole GoW releasedate thing seem like a joke. Epic says 'zomg big news in a week' and then underwhelms by announcing a releasedate everyone's expected, Capcom says nothing and BAM! there's a demo. :lol

Yup, you can. Go to www.hotmail.com and make a new e-mail address in the region you want to get content from. In this case, somewhere in Europe. You will need to use a valid postcode to sign up.

Then turn on your xbox and make a new profile using this e-mail address.

I just went to Hotmail and made up a UK account and then signed up for Silver Live Account. Easy peasy!

Nikashi · Aug 4, 2006

WHY ARE YOU ALL MAKING UK ACCOUNTS? O_O

Shogmaster · Aug 4, 2006

Nikashi said:

because we think it might be Europe only, and it's easier to make UK account then others which don't use English.

Jonnyram · Aug 4, 2006

No harm in being prepared, is there.

Nikashi · Aug 4, 2006

I just got a little worried about the 'might get banned' part of that wiki o_o

Ashodin · Aug 4, 2006

rofl, we might need UK accounts to get the demo.

Uncle · Aug 4, 2006

Kinda offtopic: Can I delete profiles from my X360? I've lost my manual and couldn't find a way when I tried yesterday.

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world hed rather have. The problem is, Dwyanes not a woman.
