I think Epic has some weird thing about demos, so they didn't put up a Gears demo. As for Halo, there was a Halo Wars demo, and the Halo 3 demo came with Crackdown.

Yeah Halo Wars is not Microsoft's biggest franchise, Halo is. There was never a Halo 3 demo only a beta, and obviously the beta is over now so no one who has just purchased an xbox can see if they truly enjoy this Halo game they are always hearing about.

 

I own all those games already so it isn't a big deal to me, just curious. Seems to do the demo system an injustice if you keep great games out of it.

Halo Wars is part of the Halo franchise.. It only had a demo because it was a completely different genre and people weren't to sure on a RTS Halo. It's also simple to turn a RTS into a demo because of their short mission structure's.No Halo Bungie developed FPS will have a demo because underneath any changes it will still be what people know and love.The biggest and most popular games usually have open multiplayer beta's not demos.
