XBL Regions

Hey Guys

Some of my Japanese friends are telling me that there's a demo download for Left 4 Dead on XBL but I'm not finding it. I have a Japanese console and the localization is set to Japan with the language settings in English. I live in Japan.

My guess is that I have an "American" XBL account and that's signing me into the US content even if I'm in Japan. My friends just confirmed once again that L4D is available for download on their Game Demo area and I've just confirmed once again that it's not in mine.

Has anyone heard of this? Does the origin of your XBL account decide what content you receive, even if you're not in that country? XBL knows I'm in Japan; it's started blocking me from downloading content like movies. You'd think that it would give me the option of Japanese content instead.

Thanks!
