Xbox Exhibition was a game demo compilation series from Microsoft Game Studios to advertise and preview upcoming Xbox games. The discs contained several playable game demos, game trailers, video content from G4 TV, music videos, and music from indie artists which were downloadable to the Xbox's hard drive.
With the advent of the Xbox 360, distribution of demos switched to free downloads from the Xbox Live Marketplace. In total there were seven Xbox Exhibition discs released over two years. The last release was volume 7 in December 2004.
