A demo of NFL Tour has made it’s way to Xbox Live Marketplace today. No details on size of the download, but it is available only to US and Canada residents.

I watched a trailer for this game last week and it actually looks like it could be fun. I’ll post my impressions once I’ve had a chance to give the demo a shot.

If you’ve been eagerly awaiting the return of Sensible World of Soccer to the Xbox Live Arcade, your wishes have come true. After disappearing for a couple days, it’s back and it’s still 800 points. Maybe I’m the only one who doesn’t care, because apparently a lot of people freaked out when the game was released and didn’t work properly. Anyway, here’s Major Nelson’s original post about the release.

Dark Messiah: Elements Demo on Xbox Live

Shafnitz — Fri, 21 Dec 2007 17:45:47 +0000

For a game I haven’t really heard much about, all of a sudden there’s a demo. I saw a couple of their teaser videos a while back, but they didn’t really do anything for me. However, I’ll give any game a chance if there’s a free demo.
