Xbox 360 Demo units appear at Wal-Mart

Person Holding an Xbox 360 controller

It looks like that in some Wal-Marts across the US (one confirmed in Albuquerque, NM) Xbox 360 demo units have begun showing up. These have playable titles in them including Kameo, Call of Duty 2, and King Kong. It was noticed that there is a separate external memory card slot for bonus content downloading. So far it looks quite promising from what I’ve heard, i can’t wait till this gets around in the UK. Joystiq have received comments from people who have been able to play on these units. Here is a brief overview.

The Good:
- Overall, the demos were enjoyable and one Joystiq reader even managed to beat the Call of Duty 2 demo.
- The power adapter isn’t as big as everyone thought, thank god!

The Bad:
- The ergonomics of the oddly-angled display may result in neck sprains.
- Bugs: collision detection issues were apparent in some of the games
- Mini boss battles with 6-year-olds who wouldn’t let go of the controllers. :)
