Request: Exclusive demos

[luckyvic]

Do the demos that Official Xbox Magazine or testers get ever show up on the web? I use to subscibe to OXM because of the demos and/or extra free DLC missions (Splinter Cell had 2), but OXM gets these demos, brag about them, but don't offer them to their readers. So f-ck that.
Would love to play MW3, Assassin Creed R, and etc. demos.

Demos or previews magazines get will not work on a normal Xbox 360, usually magazines have special Xbox 360 Demo kits. Basically thise are like Xbox 360 Development kits and can run unsigned code (anything that is not finished and signed by Microsoft to work on a normal Xbox 360).

Sometimes you can find old preview discs and betas for sale on various forums years after the game has been released, however you will never get anything that will play on a normal Xbox 360.

OK, thanks for the info. It's a real shame that a lot of the great games don't have demos. It took COD Black OPS demo a year to come out after the game was released. Something screwy here.
