Elfishgene Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 Hi guys does anyone know when us europeans will be getting the DS3 demo? seems like the US has had it for a while now but i can't find any relevant info on a european release, just a lot of speculation!
C2B Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 (edited) US just got it today. 22 June is the XBOX360 demo for europe. If you have a strong enough PC you could try the steam version on June 7th. Edited May 31, 2011 by C2B
Matt-C Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 Alternatively you could create a US Xbox Live account and use the current offer of 2 months for $2 and get the demo that way
pmp10 Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 Alternatively you could create a US Xbox Live account and use the current offer of 2 months for $2 and get the demo that way For that you'd need to somehow get billing approved and risk encountering region lock. It's not really worth it.

It's not really worth it. Please explain this region lock? For myself and many other Australians we had to import the recent Mortal Kombat game (banned in this country) and create US accounts to activate the online pass, and for future DLC. I've so far had no issues so far...
Matt-C Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 Most Xbox 360 games are region locked. oh even for demos?
Labadal Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 Most Xbox 360 games are region locked. oh even for demos? No. I have an american account for american demos. But most retail games are region locked.

I've so far had no issues so far... Then either you had the right version for your console or that game was region free. Software released for NA audience will be aimed at a NTSF standard and while there is a possibility that the demo isn't region restricted it is something to think about. Edited May 31, 2011 by pmp10

Oh yeah I understand region lock for retail copies, just confused me in the context of a demo... as I have never heard of that.
Elfishgene Posted May 31, 2011 Author Posted May 31, 2011 As much as all your lovely comments about region locks are vaguely insightful yet dubiously off topic Can anyone else fill us europeans in on a demo release date? A dev perhaps?
WorstUsernameEver Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 Can anyone else fill us europeans in on a demo release date? A dev perhaps? They already gave you one: June 22nd.
