FIFA Street 3 demo on Live/PSN

Demo on both download services.

Everyone's favourite game about PEOPLE'S HERO PETER CROUCH has arrived on Xbox Live and - Sony confirmed later in the day - PlayStation Network in demo form.

Yes, it's FIFA Street 3. The demo could be about anything, really - all we have to go on is Major Nelson's unusually brief blog post, followed by the spammed pleas of someone called rmdb23 to get his console unbanned. Rubbish gamerscore, rmdb23.

Anyway, FIFA Street 3 is due out on PS3, Xbox 360 and Nintendo DS on 22nd February, and sees the likes of PEOPLE'S HERO PETER CROUCH doing urban football with special powers and lots of tricks.

EA's calling it a re-invention, and hoping that the new console hardware at their disposal will help them "break new ground for consumers".

We should be getting hold of code fairly soon, so we'll let you know.
