No Far Cry 2 Demo [Jul 11, 2008, 9:24 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Eurogamer
has word from Ubisoft's Clint Hocking that we should not expect a demo version
of Far Cry 2, as this is another of those open-world style games the
won't readily scale to a sample version: "One reason is, even if we were to give
out what you played today - even if we put invisible walls around it and said,
here's the demo, you can go anywhere you like inside these walls and play it how
you want - that's potentially right there eight-to-ten hours of gameplay. I
don't know too many people who are willing to give away a 12-hour game for
free."
No demo for a big title like this is a recipe for disaster.
No matter how good someones intentions, if they download the full game to "demo" it, with the intention of buying if they like it, its still gonna be really hard for them to convince themselves to buy the game after they've already beaten it.

Do you have a single fact to back that up?
