<a href="http://majornelson.com/Default.aspx">Major Nelson</a> has revealed that two new demos are available on <a href="http://joystiq.com/tag/xblm">Xbox Live Marketplace</a>. The first is <em>Guitar Hero: Van Halen</em>. It's like <em>Guitar Hero</em>, but with Van Halen in it. At this point, if you need more description than that we can't really help you. The demo is available in all regions.<br />
<br />
The other demo is for <em>Crash Time 3</em>. Honestly, how that game ever made it past <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2008/05/30/x3f-tv-x3f-impressions-crash-time-demo/"><em>Crash Time 1</em></a> is a mystery we will never solve. The demo is available in European regions only. You can add either demo to your 360 download queue by clicking the links below.<br />

There is precisely <em>one</em> Xbox 360 game shipping this week. It wouldn't be such a big deal if it weren't for the fact that the game releasing ... is <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/crash-time"><em>Crash Time</em></a>. You may recall the demo that was released for the game back in May. We wouldn't blame you if you can't though. It was <em>that</em> bad. If you still need convincing, check out our video impressions of the demo above.<br /><br />But hey, it's not all bad, as we still get the mind-bending <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/braid"><em>Braid</em></a> on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/xbla">Xbox Live Arcade</a> this week. Thank the heavens for that.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2008/08/04/shipping-this-week-just-crash-time-edition/">Shipping this week: Just Crash Time edition</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Mon, 04 Aug 2008 10:00:00 EST.

Is it just us or did this game just get announced about five seconds after the demo hit Xbox Live Markeplace? We know it wasn't but all we're saying is the demo caught us off guard! So here are our impressions wrapped into yet another new episode of <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/x3f-tv">X3F TV</a>.<br />

It was made by Synetic, a company we've never heard of. It's based on a German TV series that we've also never heard of. Those things in and of themselves don't really mean much though. What we know is that it has cars and, presumably, said cars will crash. That's two points in the game's favor right there. Three points actually, considering the cars can explode. Wait, it also has a cheesy hard rawk soundtrack. That makes for a potential fourth point. Whether or not it's actually any fun is a quandary we'll leave up to you. Go grab it and tell us what you think.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2008/05/30/crash-time-demo-races-onto-xbox-live/">Crash Time demo races onto Xbox Live</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Fri, 30 May 2008 10:30:00 EST.
