Xbox Games on Demand Update 08.25.09
Download the Newest Additions, if You're in the Right Place
by Sean

Major Nelson has announced the newest games to be added to the Xbox's relatively new Games on Demand section. Although there are three games on the list, there are some odd geographical limitations put on them. Gamers in the States can now download two racers, Burnout Revenge at 4GB and Need for Speed ProStreet at 5GB, although the Japanese market is locked out of Need for Speed. For gamers in places that aren't North America, UK, Austrailia, or New Zealand, FIFA 09 is now available. There's no real word as to why the games are being restricted by region, nor whether or not this is going to be the norm for the Games on Demand, but I have a feeling the FIFA omission is because no one in North America gives a flying Ronaldinho about soccer. Only time will tell.
Here's the full details on the new Games on Demand:
