Namco celebrates success of Ace Combat 6 demo

The Xbox LIVE demo which debuted during E3 proves a huge success with over half a million downloads.

Ace Combat 6 : Fires of Liberation was the most downloaded demo on Xbox LIVE Marketplace during Microsoft's E3: Bringing it Home experience. The game demo amassed more than 500,000 downloads in its first week.

The demo enabled Xbox 360 gamers to try out the action-packed flight combat title months before its scheduled release.

Ace Combat 6 is scheduled for release in North America on October 23, with Atari brining the game to Europe at some point in November.
