Konami has announced that a demo for Metal Gear Solid 4 has been made available on the PSN. They haven’t said how much of the game is available but if you are one of the few who hasn’t picked up a copy of Snakes last legacy then here is your chance to see if you will like it. I actually …

Mirror’s Edge Demo Review

The Mirror’s Edge demo was finally released this week and I started the download with a little apprehension as I was really looking forward to this game but wasn’t sure if they would be able to pull it off. Well to cut to the chase, the game is awesome. The demo is horribly intelligently short and really helps build the …

Trailer for a Demo? Apparently so for Mirror's Edge

With the Mirror's Edge release date looking closer (November 11) and the demo now available on Xbox Live and PSN, EA has taken a rather strange move and released a trailer for the demo. Kind of like killing two birds with one running shoe. The trailer shows off some of the tutorial gameplay as well as a trainer that is helping our protagonist get back on her feet, almost literally. With some interesting music and editing, the trailer does it's job pretty well and has certainly helped maintain my curiosity about how this game is going to play at the end of the day. It's something different, I'll give it that much.

According to DPadMagazine the demo for Mirrors Edge is leaping onto PSN today and onto Xbox Live tomorrow morning. However right now I am taking that with a pinch of salt as they reference the official Mirror’s Edge site which doesn’t say anything of the sort. I have been looking forward to this game for quite some time now and …

Valve have announced that a Left 4 Dead demo will be made available on Xbox 360 and PC on November 6. Here is the catch though, if you want the demo on November 6, you will need to have pre-ordered the game. If however, you are one of the many people that couldn't be bothered about pre-ordering a game that will obviously be in steady supply, the demo will be released to everyone on November 11. The demo will include both single player and multiplayer, with the multiplayer component being reported to end on November 18, the day of the games release.

EndWar Demo Coming to PS3 after all

By Nick De Bruyne

You may remember that just yesterday, we reported that the EndWar demo was not going to be coming to the PS3. The reason? We still aren't sure but this is really getting my interest because I want to know why. Are we looking at a scenario where companies are actually starting to get paid to keep their demo's exclusive? Maybe what is happening is just a reaction from Ubisoft against all of the noise being made because of the exclusive demo. I am going to keep my eye on this one.

No EndWar Demo for PS3? Where is the love?

By Nick De Bruyne

Yet another upcoming title will not be getting a demo for the Playstation 3 and one has to wonder what in the hell is going on. The Xbox 360 demo went up yesterday on Xbox Live and was accompanied by the official statement from Ubisoft that says the following: "The demo, exclusively available for Xbox 360, is free and offered for download on Xbox Live Marketplace for Xbox 360," Is this just a nice way of saying that they are a little behind with the PS3 version or is the demo actually being made exclusive on purpose? We are starting to see more and more of this happen and if you ask me, the publishers are just shooting themselves in the foot by not letting both sides try before they buy. That is of course, unless Microsoft is handing out wads of cash for this as well. It's just silly in my opinion and companies need to start making sure that they have demos available for both consoles and not only one.
