yeh, i would say the demos on Marketplace are pretty disappointing for this this years E3

i was hoping for something exiting like maybe StreetFighter, or Brothers In Arms, or Far Cry...anything.

I was hoping SC4, SF4, Force Unleashed, Bionic Commando...etc. titles that is about 1-3 months away.

Lame!

After the disapointing demo of Turning Point, I think that publishers quickly made their mind about the subject and decided not to release any demo of the game after it has shipped to stores, so it doesn't hurt sales.
It is sad but it is the way it is. I would have loved to have a RE5 demo. I remember when Capcom relased a demo of Lost Planet at E3 2006. Shame on you Capcom.

2008-07-17 16:42:41

Developers should also look at Too Human. That demo will actually increase sales I reckon, because a lot of people have played it and thought "hey, that's not as bad as everyone was making out".

Therefore, it doesn't look like publishers will release a demo unless they feel it's necessary to do so.

too human demo also has put a LOT of people off as well. its a hit and miss situation releasing a demo. as long as the game is good tho then it shouldnt be an issue. i mean, that killzone demo seemed stable enough, as did a lot of them in fact. and they all looked decent, i dont think it'd hurt sales much tbh. not if its clearly marked as an unfinished, pre-alpha E3 demo (or whatever it may be)

2008-07-17 23:39:35

I'd say the Too Human demo improved the game's reputation more than it hindered it.

August actually. Like Sath, the feedback from the demo has been extremely positive in a lot of the gaming forums i've visited.

Too Human is a hit or miss, and about the demo same thing. I played the demo more than 10 times and I still can't get enough but I want more loot and upgrades!

I have tried the Tales of Vesperia demo, and is shapping really well.
Jolli, Optimus or Ali do some of you know if the game will feature japanese voices also???
I mean, like in Trusty Bell, where you could switch the audio to japanese. Do you know something?

I am hoping so, I think they said it will be on 2 DVD's so its possible.

But I don't mind either way, Tales games have an annoying saturday morning cartoon voice acting to them but I have got used to it over the years.

There are many worse voiced JRPGs I have played thats for sure.
