It looks like the cavalcade of demos on Xbox Live continues today as Sierra has released a demo for their upcoming Sci-Fi FPS TimeShift.  I played the game at PAX over the weekend and it's not bad, the hook for the game  is the ability to manipulate time and pull off cool attacks like stealing weapons from bad guys while you pause time.  Not a bad game from what I've seen so far but it's not exactly Halo 3.

Sierra Entertainment, a division of Vivendi Games, announced today that the demo for TimeShift will be available via Xbox Live download. 

 

Developed by Saber Interactive and published by Sierra Entertainment, TimeShift is a first person shooter (FPS) video game that allows players to master the flow of time, to become the ultimate weapon in war-torn environments.  Armed with the experimental time-manipulating Beta Suit and a huge arsenal of weaponry and vehicles, players have the ability to slow, stop and reverse the flow of time, allowing them to control several aspects of each battle sequence.  Intuitive time controls give the player the ultimate advantage in avoiding attacks, correcting mistakes and outsmarting the enemy. 

 

With a comprehensive online 16-player multiplayer mode, featuring time grenades, 14 different maps and over 40 different features, TimeShift gears itself to the players’ unique style of gameplay by allowing matches to be completely customizable.  Players can battle it out in a tight, well-balanced multiplayer experience that implements several aspects of the time-manipulating gameplay element found in the single-player campaign.

 

TimeShift has an ESRB “M” for Mature rating.  For more information, please visit the game’s official website at www.TimeShiftgame.com
