That’s right, you heard me correctly. The Left 4 Dead 2 Xbox 360 Demo is now available for those who preordered and obtained early access to the demo.
What are you still doing here? Shouldn’t you be playing Left 4 Dead 2? Oh? When’s the PC demo? That will be out on Wednesday (Make that Thursday – AU Ed). Wednesday is tomorrow (Hey, and so’s Thursday! – AU Ed).
Those who check out the demo, feel free to write your impressions here. Those who don’t, well, you can read those impressions.
Kotaku AU Note: North American preorder deal is for North Americans.

Not sure about other regions, but I just got sent my demo code for the preorder I placed on Sep 22. (How’s that for confidence that the Classification Board were always going to ban it!)

Wednesday, October 28, 2009 at 3:43 PMSo is there any way for a Aussie to play the demo without preordering.
Im refusing to put a preorder down until I am sure I have a way of getting the uncut version on PC.

Wednesday, October 28, 2009 at 8:28 PMThe demo will be avail to public on pc in a few weeks i think, its just if you pre-order you get demo access earlier…

Wednesday, October 28, 2009 at 10:59 PMSure there is. Wait. As for the uncut version, you’ll probably just have to wait till it’s released to see if people can break it.

Wednesday, October 28, 2009 at 6:31 PMI want to know why delay a game i already have downloaded and apparently ready to play…

Wednesday, October 28, 2009 at 8:07 PMI tried putting the code in, but it doesn’t work. Does anyone else have this problem?

Thursday, October 29, 2009 at 9:05 AMYep, you’ll have to use a US Gamertag to enter the code in. Just create a free Silver account with a US residence.

Wednesday, October 28, 2009 at 9:37 PMShort of making a new steam account and using some sort of IP Proxy every time you want to play it, no.
Or just wait a day or two and modders will have a mod for it available.

Thursday, October 29, 2009 at 5:10 AMtry getting an American Account…apparently you do that and the pre-order code for Xbox 360 will work

Thursday, October 29, 2009 at 9:34 AMSo does that mean that the EB Games pre-order coupon will not work in Australia? Can anyone clarify this matter?

Thursday, October 29, 2009 at 3:47 PMLadies and Gentlemen, I’ve played the botched censored version and I can honestly say it sucks. I truly thought it wouldnt make a difference, but Goddammit, there’s no point to L4D if you arent standing panting atop a pile of dead dudes by the end of a fight? I found Crash Course more engaging than this demo I’m afraid.
