Case Zero does well

Capcom did something a little different to promote the upcoming {Dead Rising 2}, when they released a prologue - {Dead Rising 2: Case Zero} on Xbox Live Arcade.

And according to Gamer Bytes to move has been a success, with more than 300,000 copies shifted in a week, a number that is sure to rise over the next couple of weeks up until the release of {Dead Rising 2}.

Perhaps {Dead Rising 2: Case Zero} will start a trend, as it's surely a more lucrative road to travel than a demo for publishers. And as long as they dress it up enough so it doesn't feel like we're paying for a demo, I'm sure no one will complain.
