Name just jumped out at me. Couldn't help myself really. But it IS (kinda) about what I'm talking about today, so I figured I'd give it a go. :)
What I'm talking about today, is of course the Game Demo. Recently, I got a bit busy on X-Box Live, and downloaded a few of 'em for my 360, to check out some upcoming and previously released Games. Took me a while, as there were several gigs of data to shift around, but well worth the time taken...
Managed to download Hitman - Blood Money, Kameo (two Demo things there), Lost Planet, Rumble Roses XX, and Quake 4 to check out. Some of 'em weren't half bad either. I got killed lots in Quake, managed to run around a lot in Kameo, couldn't quite figure out how to win in Rumble Roses (although I must admit I enjoyed trying ;)) and quite enjoyed Hitman and Lost Planet.
In fact, if I was gonna purchase any of the Games I tried via the whole Demo thing, I reckon it would be Hitman and Lost Planet. Both good Games, although I have to wait for Lost Planet until next year sometime - which is prolly not a bad thing, all things considered. Hitman is one I'll need to make a decision on, but I might just play the demo again a couple of times before I make up my mind...
So my experience in the Demo field worked pretty well, even if it did take me a few hours to download all the bits and pieces. Back to my usual Gaming commentary next entry, I reckon people. Hope you're doing well out there in Gamespot Land, and until next time - don't forget to...
Game on! :D
