PC player here but was wondering if anybody had a "Spare code" for the 360 demo, i'd like to download it and check it out.. if possible!

thanks. (not gonna double-dip)

 

[Giant Robot]

are the demo codes sent by email?
I pre-ordered the game last week, but for some reason the person who rang me up never said anything about a demo code. Would I be able to just go in and get a code from the store with proof of my pre-order?

CPU and ram should be fine, dunno about the GPU though.

Just a heads up, in case this hasn't been posted already ... apparently the Gamespot system isn't actually verifying if you've actually preordered a copy or not.

How to obtain a free Left 4 Dead early demo access invite code:

1. Visit GameStop’s early demo access page from this link.

2. Fill out the Platform, E-Mail Address, First Name and Last Name fields. Leave Transaction ID field empty. Make sure you enter a valid E-mail since your demo access code will be sent to this address.

3. Press submit. You will be greeted with the following message:

Thank You!
Early access to the demo will run from November 6th through November 11th.
Codes will begin being sent out on November 5th.

Congratulations! You just made it into Gamestop’s Left 4 Dead Early Demo Access. Apparently the transaction ID field is not validated by GameStop’s system so it does not matter if you pre-ordered the game or not Give some time for the code to arrive in your inbox; it will definitely come.

This happens with every demo/beta code they give away. I did this with CoD5:WaW.

OH MY GOD GAF

THIS GAME IS FUCKING INCREDIBLE

HOLY SHIT I FEEL LIKE I'M PLAYING A ZOMBIE MOVIE. GREATEST VIDEOGAME EVER

Seriously, just jumped into a room with 3 randoms and played through the demo level. Everyone worked together, we won. It was awesome.

I need this fucking game day 1.

 

[CzarTim]

What's the time for the pc version? If it's over an hour, I'm going to sleep.

 

[Flek]

You can preload now but its not unlocked untill four more hours.

Ditto.... I was playing just on normal and it was prettty intense on some parts. I was amazed at how well it plays on 360. I didn't notice any drops in frame rates or anything. Best of all you get to play 2 levels on the demo The one thing that caught me by surprise was a zombie that used his tongue on me like a frog and pulled me in :lol

Thanks a lot man, just submitted mine. Hope I get a code soon.

 

[CoilShot]

Anyone want to try playing on the hardest difficulty?

 

[TheProDaniel]

Aghhh cmon, drinking beers here waiting for it!

 

[kamorra]

I have a spare 360 demo code up for grabs.

Edit
Wow, that was quick.

 

[TheGreatDave]

Sooooo good.

 

[Bossman]

I would like that, please

 

[CoilShot]

Sooooo good.

Good? This game is awesome

 

[Momar]

oh god the impressions are going to eat at my soul until I get in... DAMN YOU GAMESTOOOOOPPPPP

Exact same feeling's I just had playing it.....MUST HAVE THE FULL GAME!

 

[Arozay]

Might buy/pre-order tonight when I hit offpeak. Never bought a game over the net bigger than a gig so thinking about holding off and just picking up a dvd version in the stores cause I'm not too familiar with Steams backup options and Australian net sucks.

 

[TheGreatDave]

Holy fucking shit.

Playing it once, it's great. Play it twice, it's un-fucking-believable.

 

[Spotless Mind]

Just bought now. Hopefully it finishes preloading before it unlocks. Any aussie night owl gaffers wanna play with me?

 

[CoilShot]

Holy fucking shit.

Playing it once, it's great. Play it twice, it's un-fucking-believable.

Thats more like it :lol This game doesn't deserve a good.... Its simply amazing and its never the same when you play through it more then once

EDIT: The best thing though is the 360 version(based on the demo of course) doesn't seem to have any problems. After I heard how Orange Box was handled I honestly didn't know what to expect but this simply is awesome

 

[Spotless Mind]

You guys and your impressions are killing me. I wanna play now!

 

[Fallout-NL]

Fuck man, why make PC owners wait for 4 more hours? Is this how you treat your best customers?

 

[TheGreatDave]

The controls are great on 360, by the way. I'm going to get it for PC just because I prefer the server setup, but nobody should be worried about playing it "only" on 360.

Demo is too short though

 

[Liberty4all]

How long is the demo?

Damnit I'm getting tired of hitting refresh on my hotmail. *refresh*

 

[FatalT]

I only played the single player mode on the 360 version but I had more fun with the Mirror's Edge demo than this. I really need to play it with 3 other people in co-op, though. I should play it on a harder difficulty too because Normal just felt too easy.

How long is the demo?

Like 30 minutes.

 

[YYZ]

a code isn't needed for the PC version is it?

 

[Spotless Mind]

a code isn't needed for the PC version is it?

Nope.

 

[Fallout-NL]

a code isn't needed for the PC version is it?

Not with Steam, no.

 

[CoilShot]

Damnit I'm getting tired of hitting refresh on my hotmail. *refresh*

Its two levels but its basically about 15 min demo I want to say it might be longer though I wasn't keeping time

 

[furrygiblets]

How in sweet fuck did xboxers get the demo before us goddamit

 

[Fallout-NL]

How in sweet fuck did xboxers get the demo before us goddamit

Yeah, long live digital distribution. Flip the goddamn switch already.

 

[mandiller]

Is there online multiplayer with the demo? (there better be...)

I don't see why they don't just release the whole thing for PC for pre-orders as a beta, like they did with Team Fortress 2. Oh I wish....

 

[wormstrangler]

Is there online multiplayer with the demo? (there better be...)

Nope. Only single player with bots...

....

Yes of course theres online multiplayer or the demo would suck

Keen as if the missus hasn't sent me to bed haha. Hope it's soon!

Aussie here too. What's your steam name? Just add me and when I finish pre-load I'll give you a game. My steam id is: mandiller

I don't know how it'll go though, my pre-load is only at 26% and it'll probably take a couple more hours. I'll be up all night though working on uni assignments so even if it's 4am i should still be up for a game

 

[Raxus]

Anyone have a spare code for 360 or PC please?

 

[IronicallyTwisted]

First game i've ever put money down before a review or demo. If Valve fails me i'll be forever bitter.

Impossible.

 

[McBacon]

[IronicallyTwisted]
