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."

.... no demo, no sale. Back in the old days of gaming, so many games were released that rocked, we could get away with that and the pressure would actually work FOR us. These days?

How many AAA+ games are released a year now on PC? 1.... if we`re lucky? (and peeps still say PC gaming is alive and well? ;p yahuh) So we are hardly in a good position for picking and choosing. Other than FC 2, I see 1 lone game I am looking forward to for PC. GearBoxes AL()ENS: Colonial Marines. And that game will prolly slip to 2009 1st Quarter.

As for there not being an FC 2 demo, no biggy. I loved FC 1 (accept for the monsters lol). I really love what I am seeing in the FC 2 vids. That is my kinda game. Was hoping STALKER would have been more like what FC 2 looks to be offering. But dems da breaks.

So, with some luck maybe we will see a FC 2 PC release, more sooner than l8trs!
