EA has uploaded demos of its key Q1 FPS games Crysis 2 and Bulletstorm to Xbox Live today.
Gold Live subscribers will be able to download both demos on Xbox 360 for free, with a PS3 demo of Bulletstorm arriving on PSN tomorrow (Wednesday, January 26th). The Crysis 2 demo is exclusive to Xbox 360.
Bulletstorm is the latest from developers People Can Fly and Epic Games. It features a ‘skillshot’ system that rewards players for wacky kills such as pulling enemies towards them with an electronic leash before kicking them onto spikes.
Crysis 2 is the follow-up to 2007’s hit PC shooter and marks the series’ arrival on consoles. The game – in development at Crytek – puts players in control of a marksman inside a powerful Nanotech suit which can deliver deadly blows or turn invisible.
Bulletstorm hits shelves on February 25th while Crysis 2 will arrive one month later on March 25th. Both games will be available on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.
