Capcom has today notified that a multiplayer demo for its upcoming action game Lost Planet2 will be releasing on Xbox Live and PSN on April 21 and 22 respectively. The map will contain the Turbulent Jungle map and will allow 16 players to play together and view their stats online.
However, good news for the fans, the Capcom press release stated that it will release the demo to its most devoted next Wednesday with 'community distributed voucher codes' although  I am not sure neither Capcom explained how are they going to do it, I would say it would be good if fans regularly visit Capcom Unity.
Capcom also announced that the final version will be released May 11 for the consoles while the PC will release later this year.
Happy Hunting...

Gamestop sued by James Collins for Deception

A lawsuit filed this week against GameStop acusses the company of "deceptively misleading" its customers into believing a used game purchased from the store comes with all packaged downloadable content advertised on the box. This content, however, is only made available for free to those who purchase the game new, as the code to access the content can be only used one time.
James Collin bought a Dragon Age:Origins game from gamestop earlier in January for $54.99, $5 less than the new game with full access to downloadable content. James thought that he would be able to download the content since the box showed the downloadable content could be downloaded if the old version was bought.
However James found out that he could not and would have to pay additional $15 for this content. The manager of Gamestop declined to return the game as seven days had passed only during games could be returned.
'Gamestop is well aware of this procedure and frauds customers to buy these games' the suit states.
Collins is currently demanding for compensation.
No Gamestop representative could be reached at the moment to comment.
