Mirror's Edge demo, you say? Why yes, you can march to your PS3 and download that sucker right now. If you have a 360, you'll have to wait a day, but you can keep yourself amused playing Penny Arcade Adventures Episode Two in the meantime, which I'm having a blast with.
The video above is actually a trailer for the demo (something I don't recall seeing often: a tease for a tease of the actual game) and features a sexy blonde who shows Faith the ropes when it comes to acrobatic skyscraper exploration. DO WANT is an understatement when it comes to my hunger to get my hands on this. Are you going to get the demo?

You would have expected differently?
Nothing on the American front either. Maybe he means Japan?
Also, the ps3 demo doesn't come up till tonight. I just checked also and it's not up yet. Can't wait though, should be pretty awesome.
Or mute it.
The controls work really well and are combo of Chronicles of Riddick actions with FEAR. Though motion controls on sixaxis are near busted, the balancing works well (if they'd effed that one up I'd be cross!). But trying to disarm or roll into a fall using sixaxis is a pointless endeavour.
My biggest fear is that it's not going live up to its amazing premise. There's only three wasyy this game could fail:
1 - Singleplayer less than 15 hours
2 - Limited, single track environments (the demo is like this, so hopefully that's just to get your used to it.)
3 - No (online or splitscreen) Race mode. There's an option for it in the menu, but that could just be to upload your latest times for a level.
One feature I think would work really well is Co-Op, especially in getting a parcel to its destination, throwing it to your partner to get the best times.
But I know, I'm dreaming.
Also, who is Mirror? Some plot development we've not heard of, or are DICE just bad at punctuation.
seriously, i don't see why they do this. i'm either at college, or at work, so i never have time for a subscription to live, so i don't bother. and there ain't no way in HELL i'm paying a monthly fee for a demo.
it's times like this i want to start punching people in the face. srsly.
