    ohh whaaaaaat?

    not in the UK? that sucks, I had the episodes imported =D loving it =D

  • a peeking duck

    Oh good, another comment thread that will be filled with outraged non-US/Canadians. :P

  • Warrengonline

    Cool, something to mess with until 10 a.m. Feb 18, 2009. Thanks, I was hoping for this demo AND a demo for Street Fighter IV (just to have it before release for the extended intro).

  • OrionnoirO

    hmm… At least this will give me a way to try this out before I would even consider a purchase. I never really got into the show, but, as a game… Maybe ;)

  • MrGreen13

    I have the game and it’s just ok…I work in radio and received it for free as a promo. I wouldn’t spend my hard earned money on this….it’s just not for me. If you like hack and slash/rinse and repeat games then it might be good for you.

  • zfair899

    Sad that this has to be US/Canada region exclusive… Not that that ever stopped anybody.

    Still.. looks fun. May not be a buy for me, but I always enjoy a simple hack and slash demo.
    The NG2 and SWTFU demos are insanely addictive.

  • IconicSoulJA

    Demos are cool because they are FREE.

  • HgE F3RILLA VII

    I wanna play it, but its soo unfortunate im in the UK, Major make it available worlwide!

  • Warrengonline

    Nice R Rated demo. Funny too.

  • Blue Thunder28

    AWESOME demo! Renting this for sure.

  • II QUiCK5HO7 II

    Nah, I never really liked it anyway…

  • Secret Fuller

  • Anonymous

    oh great another screw every one else, just US only post.

    GREAT

  • M G R O 7 E N

    i think it’s available now for all world :D

  • KRENZFAM

    Don’t worry about playing it… gets old QUICKLY !! I rented it at the local video store and played it one time in 5 days… it is ok but just gets really repetitive fairly quickly.

    Guess it would make an ok time waster… just not a game to take very seriously

  • TES7769

    While the game isn’t anything exceptional, it IS extremely well done for what it is.The voice work(Sam Jackson is AWESOME as Ninja Ninja..The character alone has twice the ammount of spoken lines in the video game than in all parts of Afro Samurai the first series)and sound in this game are the best i’ve heard from any this year yet.

    If you’re into anime and have seen the Afro Samurai anime series/dvd and/or Part 2 and you happen to also own a 360 then you’d be doing yourself a disservice by not trying this demo out.
