Disney Interactive Studios has released a demo of the upcoming Black Rock Studio action-racer, Split/Second, on Xbox LIVE Marketplace today. The demo is exclusive to the Xbox 360 until May 11 (and will require a Gold account to download), when it will also hit the PlayStation Network.
The demo features the Airport Terminal area, one that we’ve seen many times at various events, including (most recently) PAX East. It’s a pretty great area for showing off what Split/Second is all about — triggering huge, Hollywood-style explosions to throw off opponents and alter the course of the track. Examples? You can crash an entire plane onto the runway. Sold.
It’s about an 800 meg download, which means my transfer should be completed by the time I’ve finished this sentence. Yup, there it is… nothing like starting the week than by blowing stuff up. Thanks, Disney.
