Tonight, G4TV will air the God of War III demo shown at E3 around 6:30pm EST/PST and again at 8:30pm EST/PST on X-Play.

Just in case none of you have seen it already.

Game Director Stig Asmussen will provide the walk-through and add a bit of commentary.

Don’t get G4TV? Then just log into the official website after after X-Play has started, and voila!

US PS Blog has more on this if you are interested.

G4 gamer show X-Play has been cut from five to three days per week, resulting in half the staff being let go including games editorial manager Abbie Heppe.

Kotaku received a statement saying that on March 2, Attack of the Show and X-Play will return to their former schedules, AotS going back to four episodes week, and X-Play to three per week.

A spokesperson said that the company does not “comment on personnel matters”, but that with fewer episodes a decrease in staff was imminent.

The money saved from the staff cuts will got to producing more original programming in 2009. The spokesperson added that, “This is not a budget cut. G4 remains dedicated to these core franchises.”

Looks like a little less Adam Sessler, Morgan Webb and Olivia Munn for everyone.

G4TV’s posted up 15 minutes of direct-feed footage from the Left 4 Dead demo, giving pretty much ample reason to buy the game later this week.

We don’t know a single person that hasn’t been completely blown away by Left 4 Dead, so expect some heavy scoring on Thursday and Friday.

Take a look.
