This is how demos should be released.

MP demo would have been nice. Six years later people still play the Battlefield 1942 demo on the PC, which I think is funny.

Probably 1 guy had to do the demo for both versions then seeing how it took that long. the actual team is busy counting the money and making new map packs for $15

Chances are that they wanted to do this now instead of on launch. People who were interested in the game probably got it then. This is just to boost sales after the game has lost a lot of its steam.

Me too. I would've bought it for the amazing $30 it was at Kmart a while ago if I didn't have COD4.

I'm surprised they didn't try and charge $15 for it.

They understand just fine. They understand when your game sells solely on hype, a demo before launch will hurt you.

Everybody is bashing the MW2 demo for coming out so late but it took the Uncharted 2 demo a long time to be released as well. :?

demos can actually reduce sales. not releasing a demo limits the opportunity for the consumers to sate their curiosity about the game, short of buying it.

with a demo, there's a chance for players to get a negative perspective on the product, if they didn't like it. with pure positive marketing, previews, etc, that is the only perspective available on the product.
