Only 8 days after it became available on the Xbox Live Marketplace, the demo for Force Unleashed had accumulated more than 1 million downloads, reports Gamasutra.
The previous record holder, the demo for Silicon Knights' Too Human, also topped 1 million, though that demo was available for 9 days before breaking that milestone.
The PlayStation Network version of the demo also saw hordes of gamers rushing to play the small section of the title. Combined downloads for the two demos topped 2.3 million worldwide.
I wonder what exactly these numbers mean to LucasArts' marketing people. Obviously people are showing interest in the game, but how quantifiable is it if the demos are free downloads?
