A really fun game to play

I decided to check out the expansion for this game having had the original sit on my xbox360 shelf since I bought it a year ago but could not get into it.
Boy do i wish i had stuck with it for a bit longer back then.... It takes a little getting into and thankfully this new expansion has made it a lot easier to get started and therefore hooked.
I think the 360 is the best way to play this game. There is a much larger playerbase according to the forums and also it all runs really smoothly and looks great for all the players. The occasional slowdown here and there depending on how frantic things are getting but its mostly 60fps otherwise... very smooth.
With voice chat included when in your party or in your shop and a nice wireless keyboard attached to your 360 you are really spoilt for ways to communicate... having someone pop into your shop to buy something and actually start talking to you while you talk back making the deal.... not seen another game achieve this yet but thanks to the 360 headset its the norm here.
I urge people who are on the fence about this game to look for this game in the 360 bargin bins, download the expansion and give this a try for a month or two. I am glad I did 
Oh but ignore the demo on the xbox marketplace.... its NOTHING like the game anymore as it has not changed at all since the release... that demo put me off playing... I really dont know why they cant update it or something - lol

The demo is only good for getting rare room decorations and/or weapons during the endorsed demo weekends
It's fun to play but the online game for this is abit too expensive.
In my opinion, $10.00 USD a month is not too much a fee to keep the most unsavory elements out of the game's servers (see xbox demo servers). How would you suggest for Sega to make money of this game if they were not to charge a monthly subscription?
Hey i heard there was trail version for
this game, can anyone give me a link,
or tell me how to get to it, i really wanna try this
out, but not waste my money before i know
if i like it or not.
I wish I had try it when my sister had it. I was looking forward to playing it too but I don't have the money for monthly fee. And I know $10 a month isn't much consider the cost of living on the rise I rather sit this one out and play other game.
The only demo available at the moment can only be downloaded through xbox live, aside from showing how the game was when it started, its also a great example of why this game needs a monthly fee. If you feel like giving it a try on the xbox demo, I'll be glad to give you a guided tour, just drop me a line.
