No Fallout 3 Demo [Apr 21, 2008, 6:40 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments

has word from Pete Hines of Bethesda Softworks, who says a demo for Fallout 3 is
not in the cards:
When you build it as one thing, there's no way to portion off a section and have it stand on its own without putting the whole game in the demo, which we're just not going to do. And it doesn't really capture the fun of a game like an Elder Scrolls or a Fallout, where you can go where you want and do what you want. So no demo, sorry.
The only specific example I remember is X2, and I'm not sure if it was ever fixed.
Both FADE and TAGES insert "triggers" in the game code that cause random problems throughout gameplay. Operation Flashpoint, TOCA Race Driver, Gothic 3 and some other European games have used such protection schemes. They always get cracked properly, however, it just takes a little longer and sometimes takes a couple of tries. You don't see this kind of protection too often, though, as it's much more of a hassle to implement than SecuRom or Safedisc.
