| ItNetPro said: That is incorrect. All games will have demos available to play from day one. That has no relation to the game sharing system. You would be able to play the full game as long as you want. The rules are you need to be part of the family for at least 30 days and you can't play at the same time the other person is playing. The person playing the game from your library gets polled every hour he/she is playing. Further, the reason behind this is once people start sharing games they will want to play each other and click to buy. No need to D/L the game again or go to the game store to pick up. The logic was this will actually create extra sales. |
No, you wouldn't. Perhaps they're not mere "demos", since you are actually downloading a full game, but they were going to be full game trials, a la PS+. After a certain period of time (exceeding no more than one hour) you would have been stopped from playing and asked to buy the whole game. They were toying with the idea of letting you decline and continue playing a certain number of times, but not enough so that you could just finish every game without buying it. They were glorified demos, and the whole idea was a terrible trade off for being able to play offline and actually own your games.
