If you're as keen to get your hands on Dead Space 2 as I am, then you're in for a treat in the run up to Christmas, as there's a demo of the survival horror sequel winging its way onto the Xbox Live Marketplace just in time for the holiday season.

The demo will see Isaac discovering the Church of Unitology on the Sprawl, offering the chance to try out the new Javelin gun and sample the upgraded stasis, telekinesis and the advanced suit's jet boots, as you engage in some 360-degree zero-G action.

Look out for the Dead Space 2 Demo on December 21st, five weeks before the game launches on January 25th, 2011 in North America and January 28th, 2011 in the UK and Europe.

Would be awesome if its a multiplayer demo.
