I picked mine up at GameStop today. Giving them out to RE4 reserves. Haven't had a chance to play it yet, but I'm assuming it's the same one from E3.
 
Different retailers will be giving them away in different promotions. Pre-ordering will probably be the most common.

If anyone gets one in NY...Let me know. I'm thinking about heading down to the closest GameStop and EB tomorrow to check it out...Quarter of a tank of gas to get there though.
 
EBgames are handing them out now with any Gamecube accessory purchase. The demo is an updated and uncensored version of the Japanese Famitsu demo that also includes some new items like the Gem for example. Also, while you can't access them, the map displays some new areas not present in the Japanese demo.

good to hear that, now I wonder if they have them up here in canada :lol
 
Check your local Target, Wal-Mart, Best Buy and Circuit City's, dudes. I'm sure one of these chains will sell the demo seperately for $10.
 
I've acquired the demo.

The disc contains the RE4 and a movie clip for each of the other games in the series. The odd thing is that the clips basically consist of the opening cinemas for each game. I'm a bit confused as to the point of the movie clips. If the idea is summarize the previous games for the player, the intro cinemas fail to do that. If the idea is to get the player interested in buying the other games, most of them (RE2, RE3, RE:CVX) are no longer available for purchase in stores. The clips appear to have been added simply for the sake of filling up the disc.
 
DavidDayton, where do you live and where did you get the demo (and how :))

I haven't played it before so I'm eager to try it out.

I'm in Sacramento, CA. I just walked into my local EB and asked for the demo. I do believe they intend to give it out when you preorder RE4, but they simply handed it to me when I asked for it.

It's because you are so damn hot.
 
shoot, not to bump two threads about this...but the Gamestops in SE Michigan have them. I grabbed a couple, haven't had a chance to play it yet. They are also reserving some sort of LE version. Didn't look into that yet.
 
The demo appears to be the e3 version, and not the "enhanced" demo that was distributed in Japan. If I am correct, the Japanese demo included female villagers and a few other changes; the version I picked up has only male villagers.
 
I think it is because they are trying to not give out too much so basically you got the unedited demo. Expect other changes when you actually pick it up.

Heading to Gamestop then. :D
 
Has anyone had a chance to check Target, BB, CC, TRU, etc.? I'm going to make some calls tonight, but was just curious now.
 
I just called the local EB in Johnson City, New York. They have them in. They are giving them out with the purchase of a GameCube, or GameCube Controller. However, I talked the Manager into giving me one for pre-ordering the game.

no word on if the copies of remake and re:0 have the yellow greatest hits stripe?

I would think not, but then again, I am not sure.

I got my RE 4 preview disc today when I went to go pick up my copy of KOTOR II. I put 5 bucks down on the collector's tin, and bam, they handed me the disc. They had it displayed, so it was obvious that you need to reserve the game to get it. I haven't played the demo, but I would expect it to be the same demo that is residing in the Gamecube kiosks right now.
 
Just finished playing it. Awesome.

I hope they let you unlock subtitles for the villagers after you beat the game once. It is kinda creepy not knowing what they're saying, but I'd like to know what they're saying all the same.
 
This game is !##$#%% HARD if you run out of ammo. Why 10 bullets? Isn't Leon's gun a .45 and don't they hold 16 bullets?

Oh well. Other than that the animation, graphics, and artstyle is awesome.


One more problem:I hope Capcom fixes the audio problem with the villagers. They sound like robots.

I noticed the sound problem too. I think they are still tweaking them though. The ammunation is something that has always been a problem with the RE series, and the knife stinks. :lol
