Where has the Left 4 Dead demo gone?

Well, after lots of people saying that the latest game by Valve, Left 4 Dead, was brilliant so I finally got round to downloading the demo.

So; I logged onto Xbox Live, into the game marketplace, and after a long search, I couldn’t find it. Have they removed the Left 4 Dead demo? I also tried to download it via Steam but this was also unsuccessful.

After some search on the web someone linked to the Xbox website where you could download it, but it took me to a message saying “This offer is not valid in your region.”.

Can anyone tell me, has the demo been removed? And if it has, it seems like a strange thing to do, but it looks like I’m going to have to go to Blockbusters to try the game.

  1. Well Scrooby, the answer behind this is, simply that the demo was an All Hallows Eve special only avalible to download for one week. It was a bit of a stupid idea if you ask me, as we were not very well informed, but there you go hopfully this should answer that.

  2. Ah right, that does seem like a rather stupid idea, but anyway, thanks for the information :)
