Dash Text: [ESRB: RP (Rating Pending)] The demo version of RESIDENT EVIL 5. Play by yourself or play with a partner in co-op mode, either online or offline with a split screen.

Major Nelson just posted the news item. If you can't find it on the marketplace, and you're an Xbox Live Gold member, you can download it directly to your XBox 360 by clicking here.

The demo weighs in at about 473mB, and is the same as the previously released BIOHAZARD 5 demo.

Playstation 3 users can expect the demo to hit their PSN stores sometime next week.

Had to use my Gold card ;( Dling now though.

Just checked, some sound files are now 0 bytes, and the shader.arc is also 0 bytes in the US demo. So perhaps they left some interesting audio files on the Japan one and realized their mistake with the US one? Other than that, its 1:1.

I wish all demos could be this size.

[DeadArtist]

can someone please pm me and maybe tell me how i can open a US account for xbox live? I have no idea how it works (im new to the xbox)

After playing the PS3 demo for so long, just can't stand the tearing on the 360, please Capcom fix it, I prefer the 360 over the PS3 version because the controller.

[DeadArtist]

what do you mean by tearing? I noticed (whilst playing on cd) that there were like stripes appearing on the screen ... it looked really bad.

Wow, why is the demo so small? Demos are usually 1GB+.

Gah, I want to go play it now.....and I was going to......till I found out my professor wanted a art critique paper this morning D:

[Archelon]

THEY DIDN'T REVERSE THE BUTTONS! ARGH!

[A-J]

hopefully that was because this is a straight rip of the jp demo ..

Good I prefer them this way.

So wait, if this is the exactly same demo that Japan get few weeks ago... why do we get it so late?

[atlier00]

Ok, this is irritating, and I hope its not a prediction of things to come.......

But I just tried for 15 minutes to play the game online and everyone I started to play with kept quiting.....atleast thats what I think happened(it said connection lost, but I'm still signed onto xbox live). I was trying to play Sheva and so far I've had two Chris' try to shoot me while wasting ammo and another quit in the middle of a cutscene.


-_-

Anyone want to play later around 5:30 pm east coast?
