SouthPeak and TimeGate are giving console gamers a chance to experience the upcoming sci-fi FPS Section 8 on the Xbox 360 more than a week before it hits stores. Gamers will have access to one of the maps in Multiplayer Mode with up to 16 other players (the retail version will support 32 players) or offline in Instant Action mode which offers competitive AI battles. While some deployables, vehicles, equipment and DCMs will be limited, players will get a taste of what it is like to burn-in from 15,000 ft, blast across the map in powered armor suits, and totally customize their load-outs as they go into the fray. Section 8 ships September 1, 2009.
