After Mondays release of a Sonic & SEGA All Stars Racing demo for Xbox 360 Gold Members ArchangelUK of SEGA Europe/Sonic Wrecks and Steve Lycett of Sumo Digital have hinted at a demo for PS3 coming in the future aswell as explaining that the Xbox 360 demo should hopefully be coming to Silver members next week.
Well ShopTo.net have apparently managed to get some clear details, if they are to be believed the Xbox 360 demo for Silver members is definitely coming next week and the PS3 demo is also definitely coming next week instead of tomorrows PS Store update like many PS3 owners were hoping for.
Here are their statements on each version of the games product pages –
Xbox 360
Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing
Demo Available NOWWe’ve just released a playable demo of Sonic and SEGA Racing onto Xbox Live Marketplace. Gold members can download and play the demo right away. Players can take control of Sonic or Banjo Kazooie across a selection of tracks.
You can add the demo to your marketplace queue by visiting this link http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-GB/games/offers/0DDF0001-0000-4000-8000-00005345883E and hitting the download to Xbox 360 button. It’s also visible on the dashboard as usual.
The demo will be available to Silver Xbox Live members next week.
Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing
Demo Available on the Playstation Network NEXT WEEK.
Retailers aren’t usually reliable for info, especially release dates so take this with a grain of salt though its not out of the norm for Xbox 360 Silver Members and PS3 owners to get a demo a week after Xbox 360 Gold Members.
Ijustwantthatdemodamnit
I Griffith’d when I heard Sonic speak
i have to wait till next week for ps3 demo what there an update to the ps3 store tomorrow what are my chances huh ? 🙁
“across a selection of tracks.”
Huh? There’s only one track available. -.-
So I get to wait a week for the PS3 demo, then wait another month for it to actually download?
Man, why won’t Sony just let us download the demo on our PC/laptop/not the PS3 and transer it over via USB already? They do that with updates!
So I get to wait a week for the PS3 demo, then wait another month for it to actually download thanks to Sony’s craptacular PSN servers? I’d rather just wait until the game comes out.

Um… You can download demos/games/dlc etc.. via the pc then transfer them to the ps3 via usb. It’s called media go right here http://www.us.playstation.com/psn/mediago Unfortunatley it’s currently only available to Windows users (since I mainly use a mac I can’t use it) but it works ever the same.
Not for PS3 demos, though. Only PSP.
i hope Eggman is the 2. character for the PS3 demo
Awesome!! Can’t wait to play it on my 360.
