This morning, Microsoft put up a demo on the Japanese XBL marketplace of Eternal Sonata but for some reason the US has access to the demo as well. Is it a mistake that has yet to be rectified and the LIVE team is working on it? or do they not know about it yet? whatever the reason you better download it now before it disappears.
[UPDATE @11:55 AM]
I made a mistake by saying that you could simply download it with your region set to U.S and that's not the case. There is a simple work around that you have to do that Microsoft wont condone. Needless to say, 1UP.com has posted this simple work around:
1UP can confirm that, while this is not a practice Microsoft would condone, if the XBL profile you're using has its region set to Japan (regardless of whether you actually live there), you will be able to download this demo. Thousands of miles removed from the "Land of the Rising Sun," we were able to download the English-language demo for Eternal Sonata as a scientific experiment; a successful one to boot. And once it is on your Xbox 360, you can switch back to your regular profile and play the game. Erm, not that Microsoft wants any of us doing this... but you can for now.
