I also think MS said there had been over 45mil game downloads over XBL.

500k is very impressive. That means that over 1% of all downloads on XBL have been the AC6 demo. When you think of how much content is currently available it becomes aparent that this is probably the most popular Downlaod ever on XBL.

So that's 500k Ace Combat downloads out of 45 million total demo downloads* (and that number is now higher as it's from E3 and doesn't include those 500k AC downloads and others like Harry Potter, The Darkness, and the new football games)?

Do they ever remove demos from XBL? I went on XBL just now, and there are currently 90 demos available.

So...

500 / 45,000 = 1.11% of downloads

1 / 90 = 1.11% of available demos

Considering a few of the demos are absolute crap (Tenchu Z, Surf's Up, Hour of Victory, Dynasty Warriors Gundam, etc.), AC being an average download isn't really at all impressive by itself. But I guess it could be impressive considering AC isn't a typical 360 game and because of how quickly it has passed 500k downloads. The demo is really quite good, I'm sure that number will be far higher by the time AC comes out in a few months.

*That's assuming those 45 million are all game demo downloads. Are they? Even if they are, does that include all the Arcade demos/trial games (currently 75 available)? That wouldn't be so bad, over 1% of downloads as one of 165 games. Or is that 45 million figure for ALL downloads: games, demos, and all other downloadable content including videos, themes and pictures? If it includes everything, the AC numbers are REALLY impressive.
