NBA 2K8 demo on Xbox LIVE Marketplace

In advance of the game's release a playable demo is now available.

2K Sports has announced that a playable demo of its latest instalment in the NBA 2K series is now available to download from Xbox LIVE Marketplace. The demo will offer gamers four-minutes of play in exhibition mode.

At only 325 MB the demo is well worth a look for anyone with a passing interest in basketball. The full game is scheduled for release on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PS2 in October.
