APF 2K8 and Nascar demos hit Marketplace

If you've been on the fence about purchasing either All Pro Football 2K8 or Nascar 08 -- we wouldn't blame you if you were -- you'll be happy to know that there are now demos for both available on Xbox Live Marketplace. You might want to clear a little space on the the ol' hard drive if you want both of 'em. Nascar 08 will set you back about 600MB and All Pro Football 2K8 will take up nearly 700MB. Unless, of course, you're rocking the 120GB HDD, in which case you can download these demos with impunity.

Cool, I was itching to give NASCAR a try. This is the first next-gen version of the game, right?

Yup, i'm getting loads of problems with LIVE. And even when its does connect, marketplace does not load. I'm in the UK if that makes any difference?

Concerning the Marketplace issues, we've contacted Microsoft about it. Hopefully we'll know more soon.

"APF BLOWS in plain English!!"

I disagree. I think the game's a ton of fun. Much better than Madden was last year. I've read people complain about the graphics, but I think they look great; maybe they only look good in HD?

The game is true sim, just like their other games.

the game is great. The animations on the players are top notch. I can't be stopped with Walter Payton. I run over fools with him.
