Xbox Live during Microsoft's E3: Bringing it Home Experience. The official report speaks of over half a million downloads in the game's first week, the first playable demo being a high-flying success for the game launching
October 23, 2007 for the
Xbox 360.
In case you didn't know, the Xbox Live downloadable Demo of Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation is available for free! And since you're probably so happy now that you're running around your living room wearing nothing but underwear, here's a little something about the game, so you know what you're downloading:
Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation takes flight action to a new level in gaming on the Xbox 360™ video game and entertainment system from Microsoft. Two of the game's essential new features, the Allied Support System and Dynamic Operation System give Ace players a whole new level of control over how the enemy forces are destroyed and the way missions are completed. Also boasting crystal clear graphics, a vast "living battlefield" that will raise the intensity of the game up a notch, and a new massive online multiplayer feature that will allow up to 16 players to show off their ace skills online and around the world, Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation will be sure to blow away the competition when it hits store shelves this Holiday season.
The full version of Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation launches on October 23, 2007, for an estimated retail price of $59.99, as an Xbox 360 exclusive. Launching on the same day, the exclusive limited edition Ace Combat 6 ACE-EDGE Flightstick Bundle has been priced at around $150. Well, if you're a true fan....
