Default Test Drive: Unlimited demo coming this week!

To coincide with E3, the makers of TD:U are releasing a demo (on and off line!) this coming week. It will be available for download from the 8th to the 14th of May, only.

This is great news!

Now i have a question about that...after you download it will you be able to keep it forever or will it only work from the 8th through the 14th?

So about the ' Only downloadable from may 8th to the 14th,' does that go for all E3 demos?

hope the cars handle good. I'm not expecting realism, but atleast a sense of differentiation between the cars.

Demo is up on live.....483Mb.

The handling is better than expected. The MMO works well, even though the demo is only 15 mins long...so leaves little time to get used to it or take full advantage of it.

I appreciate the companies using the whole blur technique, but it absolutely destroys this game. At 10 miles an hour it shouldnt look like your going the speed of light. All you can see is your car, the rest looks the same, one massive blurred world. I love demo's cause then you know what Not to buy. . . Delete.

i agree.. at the same time it tells you what to buy. I wasnt going to get battlefield until i played it on the demo. Then i was going to get another game and tried the demo and hated it. I love demos!

I played it a few hours ago and I wasnt impressed. I expected a lot more than whats on the demo. I know its just a demo but it has to be kind of close to what the final release will be. I only thing I see about this game that I like is the online play. IMO the gameplay and graphics were a let down.
