Champions League 360 demo

Big demo for Big Cup.

With UEFA Champions League 2006-2007 due out in just under a fortnight, there's a demo of the Xbox 360 version up on Xbox Live Marketplace, which we thought we'd mention in case you hadn't spotted it. (Plus, obviously, it's not going to take much to get me writing about the Champions League after last week's not-at-all-surprising Liverpool defeat/victory.)

A bulky bugger, it's 1.31GB in size, but don't let that put you off. Some of you seem to be quite impressed by what EA's attempting with this one, although it sounds like the new "Ultimate Team" card-collection feature still has something to prove. You can read what producer Chris Coates has to say about that in our recent developer diary.

For more on UEFA Champions League 2006-2007, check out the Xbox 360 gamepage, where there are two diaries, trailers, and some other waffle. As well as 360, it's due out on PlayStation 2, PSP, PC and mobile next Friday, 23rd March. Look for a review around the same time.
