Woohoo another pointless un-original FPS. At somepoint it's time to put down the crayons and paste and do something creative.

I'd have more fun shitting on a stick, then jabbing it in my eye.

You won't beleive it, but a game based on the unreal engine, about some guy going into hell and back killing everything in his path. and he's cool too.

gone gold.

They said it will be out "when it's done" - well, now it is !

... ehhm...or maybe, it's not? yet??

And about unreal II all I can say is "yay!! you actually made a game based on the unreal engine about a guy who goes into hell and back. and he is cool too."




edit: I am pretty tired

According to the FAQ on the Unreal 2 Forum, there will be no demo:

WHEN WILL THE DEMO BE OUT???
currently...it is that there will be no demo. If there is one, it'll probably be after the release of the game, not before. Now, enough with the demo threads.

It should be out in the 1st week of Feb?
Why so long?
It shouldn't really take more than about 10 days to get the cd's pressed and into shops.

Whoohoo, no more news about Unreal 2!

Next please.

The possible pain, suffering and sacrifice of discovery are by no means an excuse to remain ignorant.

You guys complain/whine/bitch about anything don't you? Unreal 2 goes gold and most of everything is when is the demo (whine), it's unoriginal (whine), I'll warez it (stealing whine). Can only imagine what you guys would be saying if it was delayed or something.

I, for one (and maybe the only one), will be BUYING it, playing it and then passing my judgement on. It looks like it could be a winner to me. Guess we'll see. Until then, continue with your whining.....

"It should be out in the 1st week of Feb?

Well, they're trying to target that FPS, gore-loving,
xenophobic, Valentine's Day Massacre crowd.

ROFL

There's no demo because the game probably sucks. It probably doesn't have an uninstall option either.

But I'll wait to try the full game anyway. I feel it has been rushed.

If I had just spent months (years?) working on a game that I and the dev team were proud of I would definitely want a pre-release demo to go out. It's a rock-solid way of showing the public, first hand, that a game is true to its own hype. Without a demo we're expected to buy the game on the strength of the hype, the reviews or blind faith in the brand.
I for one won't buy a single-player-only fps without playing a demo first. Who are monkeys that are supposed to be marketing this game?

Of course once the game is released anyone in two minds will be able to get a very comprehensive demo off edonkey or wherever. All for the sake of a lack of demo....tch...

Forget marketing monkeys. Epic/Legend are too big to be told what to do by marketing folk these days. If they don't want to do a demo, then there'll be no demo.
The real reason is probably that it would delay the game by another 6 weeks or so, and since it's going to sell bucketloads either way, why bother. I'd say it's more a reflection of their conviction that they have a kick-ass product on their hands than anything adverse. All indications to date are that this will be a superb piece of action gaming. Probably the shooter of the year, even with Doom 3 on the horizon.
