The Mass Effect 2 Demo is now available for download. It weighs in at just under 2GB and is available in 5 languages on both the Xbox 360 and PC. For more details and the "Story So Far" video check out the Mass Effect 2 website.

The game team has provided answers to some of the more common questions including how to transfer your demo saves to the full game. I've included those below:



Xbox 360:
Q: How big is the Mass Effect 2 Demo?
A: The Mass Effect 2 Demo is approximately 2 GB in size.

Q: How do you save your progress in the Mass Effect 2 Demo?
A: Access the game’s pause menu by pressing the [Start] button and select the [Save] option.

Q: How can I continue the game I started in the Mass Effect 2 Demo in the full version of Mass Effect 2?
A: If you purchase a copy of Mass Effect 2 after playing the Mass Effect 2 Demo you can continue your progress from the demo by selecting [Resume] the first time you play the full version of the game.

If the first time you start the retail version of Mass Effect 2 you start a new game (instead of continuing your progress from the demo), you will be unable to import your demo save unless you delete all your saves on the full game.


PC:
Q: How big is the Mass Effect 2 Demo?
A: The Mass Effect 2 Demo is approximately 2 GB in size.

Q: What are the minimum / recommended system requirements to run the Mass Effect 2 Demo?
A: The Mass Effect 2 Demo has the same system requirements as the full version of the game.
Minimum:
  • Windows XP, Vista, 7
  • 2.4 GHz Intel or 2.0 GHz AMD
  • 1 GB RAM (XP), 2 GB RAM (Vista)
  • 2.5 GB minimum file space
  • NVIDIA GeForce 6800 or better (7300, 7600 GS, and 8500 are below minimum system requirements)
  • ATI X1300 XT or better (X1300, X1300 Pro, X1600 Pro and HD2400 are below minimum system requirements)
  • Shader Model 3.0 required
  • 100% DirectX 9.0c compatible sound card and drivers.
  • DirectX 9.0c October 2006
Recommended
  • Windows XP, Vista, or 7
  • 2.6+ GHz Intel or 2.4+ GHz AMD
  • 2 GB RAM
  • 2.5 GB minimum file space
  • ATI X1800 XL series, NVIDIA GeForce 7900 GTX, or better recommended
  • 100% DirectX 9.0c compatible sound card and drivers.
  • DirectX 9.0c October 2006
Q: How do you save your progress in the Mass Effect 2 Demo?
A: Access the game’s pause menu by pressing the [Esc] key and select the [Save] option.

Q: How can I continue the game I started in the Mass Effect 2 Demo in the full version of Mass Effect 2?
A:
  • Locate your Mass Effect 2 Demo career folder in the save file directory (default is \My Documents\BioWare\Mass Effect 2 Demo\)
  • Copy the career folder to the save file directory for the full version of Mass Effect 2 (default is \My Documents\BioWare\Mass Effect 2\)
  • Within the career folder you just copied to the full version of Mass Effect 2, delete the "autosave.pcsave" and "chaptersave.pcsave" files (if these files do not exist, just proceed to the next step.)
  • In the same career folder as the previous step, rename "demosave.pcsave" to "autosave.pcsave"
  • Start the full version of Mass Effect 2 and select [Resume] from the main menu.
  • These directions are also available in the readme file that is included with the Mass Effect 2 Demo.

Why do I feel the need to download this?

Maybe i'll just download the 360 demo so I can compare both versions. :P

It's a great demo, even though I have the game I felt I had to play it. It's funny that you can do the skill stats trick thing (Xbox 360) where you press X and A.

Demo has the intro level and the Subject Zero mission. I don't believe ME1 character import is in the demo.



And yes Overlord is coming tomorrow.

Prepare to be disappointed. Maybe we'll see something in the EA show, but all Microsoft showed was Nintendogs, Wii Fit and Wii Sports without a controller.

obviously the demo isnt for us on these forums. its for the million(s) of gamers world wide who havent tried mass effect 2. sorry the world doesnt revolve around just us. its marketing.

I think pretty much everyone figured that out and thought it was too obvious to post that.
