how long until the demo is out?
Seriously, this must be the forth time I quote the same thing in less then an hour but since you wonder here it comes:
Quoting mr. Priestly:
What time will the demo be available?
For PC – February 22 at 9am PST
For Xbox 360 – February 22 between midnight and 2am PST
For Playstation 3 users in North America – February 22 between 4pm and 8pm PST
For Playstation 3 users outside North America - February 23 between 4pm and 8pm GMT

So now I'm going to have to get Xbox Gold if I want to download it tomorrow. Thanks. Thanks a lot. [/sarcasm]
I am in the same boat you are in. I did not see this "little issue" earlier myself. If I were you, I wouldn't waste the money for a 45 min demo. I can think of better things to spend $50 on.
There is a chance I won't bother with the demo now. I haven't quite decided yet. It's not like one person will make a difference in their quest for 1 million. I am sorely disappointed though for sure.
Or even $10 for a month. It's just Microsoft's way of squeezing more money out of us. It's just a matter of principle

I have never bothered with downloading a demo before, so that is why I didn't know. Not sure about everyone else. I have no reason to buy a gold membership because I am not into the online multiplayer thing...it just seems like a waste to buy it and not use it.

If no one doesn't want to pay for a gold account...
I think you can still do this. You can try it yourself to see:
Create another account with a different email address, go through the process of signing up, and when it says if you want to be a gold member, say no, and it should automatically give you 1 month free gold to try.

I would prefer GMT time please I do not live in America or Canada so PST does not mean a lot for me

Hmm, DX9 looks better than DX11 in my opinion, which probably means that choosing DX11 in the demo causes incorrect rendering because DX11 is disabled.FurousJoe wrote...

DX9
I can't tell much of a difference outside of the lighting being improved, but I do get a 33% decrease in FPS from DX9 to DX11.
The differences between DX9 and DX10 on some games don't seem that much better to me as it is. From what I saw in those screenshots, DX11 didn't show much better than DX9 either. Once the true DX11 images come out then it will differently be worth a look.

Will Hayden's Razor be able to download cross platform? I mean if I finish the demo on PC can I have the item on xbox?
Haydens razor is only unlocked on PC/Mac . I completed the German demo on Windows PC, but anticipate the English release will be the same.
Edit: In other words it unlocks like this PC/Mac = PC/Mac. Xbox 360 = Xbox 360. PS3 = PS3.
Of course it might not be the same for the English release, but I'm pretty sure it's gonna be this way considering the German demo is this way.

Same. A silver account works for me because all I want out of an online feature is access to DLC and updates. I'm not into multi-player at all, so a gold account would be wasted on me. Plus, DA:2 is the first demo I've ever been willing to download, so I had no idea that silver accounts recieved demo's a week later.
Fortunately, my brother has a gold membership, so I'll just ask him if I can borrow his profile tomorrow
