Two new demos of Driver: San Francisco are heading to Xbox Live and PlayStation Network soon. A single-player demo launched yesterday and a multiplayer demo is expected to arrive next Tuesday. While you wait for the latter, you can check out our preview and a trailer for the upcoming demo, plus the a fresh batch of screenshots below.
However, if you're looking forward to playing San Francisco on a PC then you're not as fortunate. Ubisoft has stated to Rock Paper Shotgun that "There are no current plans for a PC demo," which I'm sure won't go down well after PC users already found out they're going to be stuck with Ubisoft's always-connected DRM system in order to play the game.
Driver: San Francisco is due to launch on the September 6 for North America and September 2 for Europe.
@jimmyx you crazy bastard, you're gonna anger all the PC enthusiasts with comments like that! Topic: I STILL think the premise for this game is stupid, but thats not gonna matter when i'm trying to recreate the carchase scenes from Death Proof and Blues Brothers!
Is this Ubisoft's new business model to piss people off to not make money, cause its working. I'll be buying Driver: San Fransisco for $5 of Steam in about 3 - 6 months. Of course its sounding like I shouldn't even play it at all lol.
When I say I wasn't buying it I meant at full price lol. I'm not going to pirate it because of the DRM, but I'll sure and hell not give you a lot of money for it.
Europeans have a lot to look forward to today, as Kirby's Dream Course (one of my favorite Kirby games) and Kirby Super Star (one of the best platformers of all time) headline the Wii U Virtual Console. If you own Kirby's Adv...

Headlining this week's Nintendo Download is Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move ($9.99), which got a rave review from our own Tony Ponce. Also, SpeedX 3D Hyper Edition ($2.99) is set for the 3DS eShop, as well as the DSi...
It's one thing to look like a Super Nintendo title, but Jack the Reaper from Dream's Bell checks all of the right boxes: style, sound, gameplay, and even the opening cinematic feel like the mid-'90s in concentrated form. This...
The general vibe I'm getting about Fuse is that of disappointment. The cooperative shooter isn't what people want from Insomniac Games, and although I feel similarly, we should probably wait until we have first-hand expe...

Just a few weeks ago, we were picking over Gran Turismo 6 rumors, and now here we are with our very first preview. I was surprised to walk into a hands-on opportunity just one day after the title was officially announced. Surprised and pleased.
It may not have been the PlayStation 4 launch game I was hoping for, but it's never really a bad time for more Gran Turismo.more
