Demo code gives error message when entered 6. I call Gamestop and they have "no idea" why code isn't working, they tell me to call Sony with any tech problems I am having 7. I call Sony and they say demo for MAdden 2010 not on Sony servers at this time 8. I call Gamestop back and tell them what Sony said and I ask them "is the demo available now and if not, then when?" They still don't have a clue and tell me it should be out now. 9. I decide to go to OS when I get home (to see if OSers can shed some light on the situation). Thus I find out by reading this thread that the demo is not avaialble until 23rd and that by prematurely entering my code I may have voided it. 10. To be continued Moron list: 1. Gamestop for not knowing when download is available. 2. EA for NOT printing the availability date of the demo (or warning for premature download attempt) ON THE FREAKIN' TWO-SIDED VOUCHER CARD!!! 3. Me for not being on OS lately, 'cause if I had I would have known about the avaiability date before I even went down to Gamestop to preorder

I did the same thing and was curious if entering the code would void it so I went to Gamestop and Preordered 2 more copies to get 2 more cards knowing I will stop all 3 preorders simply because I can probably get the game early from a mom and pop shop.

i'm in the UK, couldn't bear playing the 1 minute quarter demo for the next 3 weeks, so picked up a demo code off ebay for about $10..can't wait to play the game on thursday!

On my Gamestop Demo card, it states on there plain as day that the demo will not be released till the 23rd, and gives instruction on not sharing the code or entering the code early.

Mine doesn't say anything about the 23rd so I can see how misinformed people could be confused.

I ordered online Friday night, got the Code on Monday.

Just wait until Thursday when this demo drops. It will probably take FOREVER to download with a bijillion people downloading at once.

You paid $10 bucks for a demo? And that money doesnt even go towards a pre-order? Not to be a jerk, but you realize you could've gotten the code for free, right?
