You may have heard that we in America were going to have to wait a bit longer for the Resident Evil 5 demo than those in Japan, where it arrived this morning. But that's the thing about us Americans: We're unwilling to wait for anything we want, and we're exceedingly crafty. Those are actually two things, but you get the idea.

Our friends at Planet Xbox 360 have laid out all the steps you'll need to play the demo today, but be aware that it may not be for everybody, as this is a pretty elaborate process. See, that's the thing about us Americans: We can also be kind of lazy.

You can jsut download the demo off torrents and burn ot on a cd and put it in your xbox too... it appears under demos once the disk is in.

What! Effort!? It'd be easier for me to just fly to Japan!

Wooohooo gonna b playing RE5 very soon!

When does the actual demo officially hit the US?

Great, it's just a reskinned RE4, as expected.

Indeed, even the sounds of the menu are the same.

holy moly is that shot in game? it looks absolutely stunning

thats stupid, why should they get before us thier in business because of us.

When does it hit the PS3? If it was available for PS3 in Japan I could just download with a Japanese account.
