E3 2007: Stuntman: Ignition demo available on Xbox Live photo

If you're ready to take a break from the ongoing excitement of E3 2007 and you happen to own an Xbox 360, downloading the demo for THQ and Paradigm's latest game, Stuntman: Ignition, is a good idea. If you can handle the inevitable anger and frustration that is.

If you have no clue what Stuntman: Ignition is about, the name pretty much says it all. You play as a stuntman that must drive through various "levels" while performing certain objectives such as jumping off of ramps, setting your car on fire, and launching missiles at the bad guys. Ignition pretty much sets you up to fail ... a lot, but that makes winning so much more satisfying.

I've never played the original Stuntman, so I can't comment on what's been changed or improved upon -- you'll have to find that out for yourself by downloading the demo. Stuntman: Ignition hits PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 this August, so if you like what you see, it's not that long of a wait.

I'll have to check out the demo just so I can see if it's more aggravating than the original. It's akin to hell on a disc.

Not that interested in this game but..

DAMNIT 360 gets several E3 demos. Ps3 gets nothing but trailers so far.

I demand demos.

OR ELSE!!!!!!!

Played the demo a little while ago.

Did not like.

Either i was too shitty at it or the demo just wasn't planned out very well but i really didn't enjoy it.

Do not want.

Urg, Stuntman was a horrible game. Hard beyond fun and challenge, and into the realm of horribility.

The stunt arena creator was awesome on the first one. That's about it though.......

Nah, i hired it and played the hell out of it when it came out.
Pretty hard some of spy movie levels due to how much you had to do and such little room for error.
But good kinda hard

I played through the demo today (never played the original) and didn't think it was too hard, though I'm not sure how representative the three demo scenes are of the overall difficulty. The first one took me one try, the second one just a few tries, and the last one...well, that took me a bit longer, but not long enough that I got frustrated. I noticed they did add an easy mode (was that in the original?), perhaps to address the frustration some have with the game. Anyway, I actually liked it and would consider picking it up.

Did the demo go down or something? I was the only kid who could beat the snowy level on the first one so I wanna see if I'm still cool like that.
