Dead Space Demo Coming Tomorrow

by Chris Faylor, Nov 24, 2008 7:39am PST

A free downloadable demo of EA Redwood Shores' Dead Space will tomorrow hit the PlayStation 3's online PlayStation Store and the Xbox 360's online Xbox Live Marketplace, publisher Electronic Arts has announced.

"Before you carve your turkey this Thanksgiving practice on some Necromorphs with the Dead Space Dismemberment Demo," noted EA. The creepy-crawly sci-fi action game was released on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in mid-October.

Alongside its November 25 launch in North America, the demo will hit the European Xbox Live Maketplace on the same day, followed by a European PlayStation Store release on Thursday, November 27.

A demo of the PC version was not mentioned in today's announcement.

of all platforms, they need to release one on PC the most so that people can see if the controls really are as bad as people say.

Yep, without a PC demo, there's little to no chance I'll bother buying this game. Epic fail EA marketing gurus.

great game, my wife and i are enjoying it a lot.. although it scares the shit out of her so much, she's afraid it's going to make her go into labor lol.. my only complaint is that the dead corpses move like they weigh 5 lbs.. they have no sense of weight which reduces the sense of realism a bit
