Its time I start to see us band together on the cheap and play demo's that are using XBOX LIVE Multiplayer, I know there are full games out there and some of us just don't always have the dimes and dollars for the 360 these days.

So a great way to stick together and play is to play games we DO have and more over importantly Demos that have LIVE multiplayer, because even if just one of us has a full copy, the demo will be there until we buy get a full retail copy or don't.

There are lots of demos still working like FAR-CRY INSTINCTS/PREDATOR that are working and running fine with no-one on but us or others that are "Checking" it out (about a handful usually if there are).

Demos in most cases have become smaller versions of most games and the ones that use multiplayer would be our focus to play old or new.

Sometimes I just miss out on these great titles for not buying them for one reason or another and until I get a copy of that "missed" game, we can always play the demo together, granted they are not the full game itself but if it has the core play and values then I think we are set to play. We also need to pick one day a week we group together to play demos, and on the day we are we will with majority vote pick a demo to play.

The point is Demos are a good "get to know you" tool and they are free. Its easy for everyone to obtain no matter what and it lets you familiarize yourself with the game, even if you do or don't have a full game already. I call it: LGM Demo Days

I would like this stickied for future use, I will be posting 360 LIVE GOLD Multiplayer [aka LGM] demos we can play, "the best of the rest" so to speak:

-FAR-CRY Instincts Predator
-Section 8 (best so far)
-Lord of the Rings: Conquest [server down...]
-Crackdown 2 (4p Only) [w/30 minutes trial]
-Ghost Recon: AW-2
-Shadowrun
-AA True Solder
-Transformers: W.F.C.
-Blazing Angels 2
-Lost Planet Online Demo
-Phantasy Star Universe
-ET: Quake Wars
-Halo Wars
thats all the Current LGM Demos

Requests will be looked into upon review for LGM mechanics...

I will post more here, just make a Suggestion and I will check out the options given and how many it allows.

*Thank you to C6" for the stick.
