Listen up, y'all! - Image 1When report from Famitsu on the alleged Xbox 360-Japan Resident Evil 5 demo came out earlier, am sure most of you felt that bit of panic get lodged in your throats. Oh no, will North America get the same plight by some odd, unfortunate series of twisted of events?

Well you can rest easy now cos it seems that the Famitsu information details are applicable only for Japan (obviously, cos they're a Japanese magazine). But, we've got word from Capcom's blog themselves that there is no exclusivity deal or whatnot for the demo on other territories, ie. North America.

So, hooray! We will be getting the demo both on the PS3 and Xbox 360 after all. Of course, it's gonna come a little later than Japan's, though. But that's all good. At least everybody gets the love here.

Oh, and another thing to note, while Japan did get a move up to March 5th, NA and Europe are still scheduled for a March Friday the 13th date, ayt?

Japanese XBL account

Just make sure when you do it, you have a free 48-hour gold card to use for it. The demo can only be downloaded if your account is gold in the Japanese one. I already made my account so I just have to wait now.

yeah

this proves MS bought exclusivity of this demo over here at japan. like MS is doing over most companies here. sorry MS 360 has lots of games but most game stores still gives only 1 or 2 shelves for 360 while the ps3 gets 2 to 4 shelves. maybe you should pay stores to give 360 more shelves. and most store front displays only sony-nintendo stuff, MS should pay for that too. hahaha

Idiots apprently grow on trees

"So, hooray! We will be getting the demo both on the PS3 and Xbox 360 after all. " Exactly what part of this do you fail to understand? There is NO exclusivity deal for this freakin demo. Maybe if you didn't have your heads up your asses all day you'd might actually learns something. yeah right, who am I kidding?
