Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End demo sailing into some ports
Remember your "Japanese friend" who helped you play that Eternal Sonata demo yesterday? Well, you may need a new friend. You've got plenty of choices, just as long as they're not in Asia, Canada, Mexico or the U.S., because those are the only nations that can't play the new Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End demo on Xbox Live. Of course, if you're already living outside those countries you can proceed to downloading the sample, which weighs in at 972 MB to make room for the trademark Depp swagger.
If you can't find a friend in another country who'll let you use their Xbox Live account, you can always use our incredible PotC:AWE virtual reality system, which consists of watching the video after the jump and hammering buttons on your 360 controller. We know it's not quite the same, but, if the last game in the series is any indication, the controls would actually be more responsive with our system. Ooh, pirate burn. A bARRRn, if you will.

Pirates 2 sucked ass, and I doubt a videogame of the third will be any better.

It's not fair! Why does MS always ignore the US! We deserve these demos just as much as Europe does!

Hey, maybe if they're willing to release a demo for the game, it's not that bad.

@2:
You can go f*ck yourself, Europe is always last, we get games last, we get consoles last, we get games that cost twice as much as they do in your country and we lack major features like the Xbox Movie store.

Listen, I love/hate America as much as you guys/girls, but could we please make an attempt to stay somewhat on topic? Please? For me? Here, I'll start. I thought the demo was playable, but flawed. Anyone else?

@10: Sorry, wouldn't know. I don't own a 360, so I don't have the... privilege of trying out such demos.

"trademark Depp swagger"
who cares about the swagger... are they using depps voice in this game... or a crappy wannabe? (like in kingdom hearts II)

Having just played the demo I can say you're not missing a damn thing if it's not available in your region.
Move along, nothing to see here!

umm.. Asia isn't a nation.

haha... microsoft region protection never worked. my uk acct still works just fine, and the demo runs just fine on my NTSC xbox 360.
Magnulus @ May 16th 2007 8:07AM
... since when was Asia a nation?

Great Game. Although, a bit short, (Which isn't really a bad thing) I love east games, this was easy (Done in a 5 hour sitting). I love it. Go battling pirates and even davy Jones himself in this epic adventure... Poppets!
