No Far Cry 2 Demo

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."

And you know this how?

Well I'm absolutely certain that I'm not the only one who had planned to buy FC2 but not without a demo first. NO DEMO = NO PURCHASE.

Thus, lack of demo = lack of revenue.

I refuse to buy a game based on hype alone and I'm sure I'm not the only one. For all I know, the game will be as shit-tastic as Crysis and run just as poorly. Without a demo, my $50 stays right in my pocket.
