Microsoft does not foot he bill with bandwith, the paying costumers do. Everywhere else the third parties have to.

 

Which is awesome and I am glad part of my fee goes to cover the bandwidth required to make sure every XBLA game has a demo. It's one of the advantages Live has over PSN.

Psychologically it is an advantage, but they are both pretty much the same.


Uh.. no. Having demos for every game is a plus for all parties involved, whether its MS, the developers, or the consumers. And its one you don't even have to be a Gold member to take advantage of.


Not all of them have a demo, but quite a few do. On PSN its very similar where some of the PSN exclusives or other games have demos. PSN Plus gets you a discount though. I got Outland for free recently and I must say it was a brilliant game. Thank goodness I held out on getting it on my 360. Oh yes, speaking of early viewing, I hate that youu cannot view avatars, or themes on Xbox Live. You don't know what you're getting into and theres no refund, its annoying to have to constantly go onto Youtube and look it up. PSN has always had a theme and avatar viewer, but now its even better with their update to the store, which is sooooooooooooooo...much better aesthetically and paints a much better picture of their product.

All games on xbox live have some kind of demo or time trial. its a requirement from MS
