Forums - Gaming Discussion - Best DEMO you've ever played

anything xbox 360 demo :)

easily RE5 demo on the ps3. Ironic that I hate the actual game with a passion.



Either Too Human or Crackdown.

Reasons? Because the amount of time I spent playing those demos was more than I spent playing some full games. Yeah, they were that addictive and, most importantly, fully featured as demos and could be replayed over and over and over trying different things.



Age of Empires 2 Trial(I was small back then, and I played this game for countless hours not realizing that it wasn't the full game)

Battlefield:BC2 Demo(I love sniping!)

Heavy Rain



My fav was the halo 3 beta... Not sure if that counts but its easily my favorite demo.

 

Actually scratch that i loved the halo CE demo for PC. That game had a crazy community for several years afterwards. It was awesome



I mostly play RTS and Moba style games now adays as well as ALOT of benchmarking. I do play other games however such as the witcher 3 and Crysis 3, and recently Ashes of the Singularity. I love gaming on the cutting edge and refuse to accept any compromises. Proud member of the Glorious PC Gaming Master Race. Long Live SHIO!!!!

I did sink a number of hours to the delay fest called Halo CE's online :P

A great amount of fun when  you had to lead your shots 5 feet infront of a moving target just to hit them.



Killzone 2 & Resonance of Fate



tuff one, but crackdown really sold me on a game i did not think would be any good.



come play minecraft @  mcg.hansrotech.com

Hmm. Bioshock was pretty good, made me buy the game. Arkham Asylum was also good. Brutal Legend was funny and convinced be to buy a crappy game. But I'll have to go with Fat Princess. I spent dozens of hours playing that demo. If NSMBW hadn't come along I'd probably still be playing it.



"Now, a fun game should always be easy to understand - you should be able to take one look at it and know what you have to do straight away. It should be so well constructed that you can tell at a glance what your goal is and, even if you don’t succeed, you’ll blame yourself rather than the game. Moreover, the people standing around watching the game have also got to be able to enjoy it." - Shiggy

As a kid Turrican 2 on the c64.

Modern day, Uncharted 1 demo and God of War 3 demo.



Naughty Dog: "At Naughty Dog, we're pretty sure we should be able to see leaps between games on the PS3 that are even bigger than they were on the PS2."
