Apparently yes; it was some sort of super-duper double secret probation demo only visible/available to select users.

I thought it was an open demo. And on XBL, open to "gold members" last week.

It was the same for 360 and PC, those that pre-ordered got early access...had nothing to do with gold memberships, though I'm guessing you need one...?

Anyway, it is Valve's way of rewarding faithful customers, if you pre-order you get $5 off and early access to the demo.  If you're unsure about a Valve product (for shame!) then just ignore the fact that others played it last week, because the demo is available to everyone now.
