For several years now, Activision has occasionally opened up the multiplayer side of Call of Duty games to everyone on PC through Steam for special weekend events. It's always been more conservative on consoles, though. The first multiplayer demo for consoles finally arrives this weekend, giving a taste of Call of Duty: Ghosts's MP on Xbox 360 and Xbox One.
When a demo for the trilogy-capping RPG Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII unexpectedly popped up on Xbox 360 last week, Square Enix quickly pulled it it, citing a "technical glitch." Today, it's really coming realsies for keeps, arriving on both 360 and PlayStation 3.
A demo is now available for Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Z, letting you sample single-player and multiplayer content, and transfer it to the main game launching in January.
The better half of Killzone: Shadow Fall is the multiplayer. If you want to give it a try, Sony has announced plans for a free multiplayer weekend. The game's online offerings will be free from December 28 through 31.
Whether you're new to Diablo altogether or just curious about how it plays on a controller, Blizzard yesterday released a Diablo III demo for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 following its console launch last week. Like the PC demo, it offers a chunk of the first act, up to the Skeleton King boss battle.
Yes, the Castlevania: Lords of Shadow demo may have hit consoles almost three years ago, but look, the game's three years late in coming to PC so a demo is still jolly exciting to us. It's out now, ahead of the PC Ultimate Edition's long-overdue launch on August 27.
You'll be able to give Gran Turismo 6 a spin over the 4th of July weekend.
Some E3 demoes are broadcast for the world to watch, some are only for us to write about, and some, well, we wouldn't be allowed to tell you about those for months. How delightful, then, that the Company of Heroes 2 campaign mission shown at E3 is now available for everyone to play. Huzzah!
While SWAT games and other real-time tactical affairs were popular in late Nineties and early Noughties, the joys of planning and executing assaults and rescues were largely forgotten for many years. Hey, wipe that single tear from your cheek, you silly nostalgic soul, and download the alpha demo for top-down real-time tactical SWAT 'em up Door Kickers.
