UT2003 Demo Definitely This Week (Maybe)

[Sep 10, 2002, 12:16 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

A post to the Infogrames Forums by Epic's Mark Rein has word on the UT2003 demo, saying it: "is nearly ready to go. It should be out sometime within the next few days. Keep watching this space (the stickies) for an announcement. When it's ready we'll just be releasing it randomly to a few major sites so that hopefully it will spread like wildfire and everyone will be able to get it from their favorite games site. There won't be any special exclusives or anything like that. We want everyone to be enjoying it the minute it goes live." Thanks MattyD. Meanwhile, Unreality has posted a brief chat log with Mark discussing this on IRC, talking about what still needs to be finished and what will be included. Finally, apparently realizing the dangers of making such an un-hedged statement, Mark made another post to the Infogrames Forums clarifying this is not all carved in stone:

I'm expecting the demo to be out sooner than 5 days but things have a way of cropping up and biting us in the ass so you never know. It could be as early as tomorrow or as late as the weekend but I'm pretty confident that it's this week.

Apaullo

Heh... hey at least we're not hearing NOTHING (note the double-negative), and "When It's Done". I was looking forward to this for a long time, but I'm passing the current time blasting my way through MAFIA (and loving it).
