I cannot think of a single XBLA game I have ever seen where there hasn't been a demo for it. Maybe you're thinking of retail? It's night and day different than PSN, where most games I have been interested in have no demo whatsoever. So what happens? I don't buy the game.


Thats interesting, I mostly go off of reviews. You're probably right about the retail part because my 360 has 320 GB and I was looking to have fully downloadable games as well as XBLA titles and I might have looked at demos for both and considered them one in the same (will check later). The older titles did not interest me in the slightest, but the newer ones like Deadlight, Shadow Complex, etc piqued my interest. In the same vein, i never played a demo for Unfinished Swan, Journey, Flower, Dead Nation (I got that one for free, hehe!) and more but I still loved them as seperate experiences. Personally, as everyone knows, I dont consider Xbox or PSN games a boasting point, but rather a minor thing in the online war between the two companies. Most of the top games are multiplat and the majority of them that even those companies dont have are on Steam, so when I get a huge PC that will be a fairly decent portion of my gaming, I guess.
