CaptainSpanner Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 This may have already been asked somewhere along the long, but i was wondering, when does a demo become downloadable for Silver Members? Like Skate 3 Demo that has just came out, how long will that take before a Silver Member can download it. FIFA 10 World Cup Demo hasnt been out too long and thats available... Any answers that will help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperNova X2X Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 I believe Silver members get content 2 weeks after Gold members. Don;t quote me on it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainSpanner Posted April 21, 2010 Author Share Posted April 21, 2010 Thanks alot. Its just as ive just ran out of Gold and money is tight. Probably have more Gold by the time Silver Members get to download Skate 3 Demo anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sak7395 Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 its stupid why u need gold just to download and play demo, its microsoft trying to get some money out of you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seraph Xii Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 its stupid why u need gold just to download and play demo, its microsoft trying to get some money out of you From a business perspective it's still quite stupid, demos are supposed to give you a hint of what the games like and ultimately make you want to buy the game, Microsoft restricting them is ridiculous. While it may be said that it'd encourage people to buy gold, I'm pretty sure if someone buys gold it'll be for online play alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madfrog0 Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 i also believe it is 2 weeks after gold members get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jemocasa Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Rather than attacking Microsoft for giving Gold members a (theoretically) 2 week window for demos why not laud them for giving you a reward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperNova X2X Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Rather than attacking Microsoft for giving Gold members a (theoretically) 2 week window for demos why not laud them for giving you a reward. Exactly. Subscribers always get extra benefits that regular members don't. It's exactly the same with anything. If I subscribe to a magazine, I get a bonus such as a free game or something (well, at least with the mag I subscribe with ). So no, it isn't stupid that silver members have to wait at all.

vetteindreams Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 i thought this 'gold benefit' was only on the big releases (just cause 2 demo etc) so this is right across the board then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
