  • Sweet. My most anticipated game of the year. This is a DL on the first day.
  • Sounds good, hope we can try out a bit of co-op in the demo too.
  • Probably won't get the demo, but hope the game is good. Didn't play the other ones too much.
  • Yes I'm glad they were smart and released it before the game came out.
  • Groovy.
  • Sweet, insta download :-)
  • Awesome defintly be downloading that.
  • @ #5 - who wouldn't get a free demo ? :/
  • I'll have to try and tear myself away from Perfect Dark for half an hour to try this out, if thats even possible!
  • Nice looking forward to it :)
  • @10 I have a 20 gig hard drive filled with stuff so I didn't want to fill space with a demo that will last a half hour at the most.
  • This week? Nice! Had no idea there was one in the offing, due to not paying much attention recently.
  • @ #10 : Further more who wouldn't get the demo but then proceed to buy the game and hope that it's good when u could've had a decent idea of whether it would be or not... had you D/L the demo...
  • @13 Download. Play. Delete.
  • Nooooooooooooooooo !! Damn... Now I have to choose between playing DAO Awakening or the SC demo on the 18th... Life is hard !
  • @15 wot r u talkin about?? anyway this is a must download 4 me.
  • Can't wait to try this, always seen the potential in SC but never got into them but this does look awesome
  • Do I need a demo to show me if a game is worth buying or not? No. I don't know why everyone's making a big deal out of it. I simply don't have room on my HD to download a demo. I hope the game itself is good, not just for me personally but for fans of the series as well. It looks promising and I wouldn't mind buying it without trying a demo. It's pretty straight forward, I'm sure. Kill people and get from A to B without alerting anyone/anything.
  • Yes! Looks like a fun gaming weekend with this, AvP maps, and Perfect Dark! I won't be able to get the game until a couple weeks after release but this is awesome!
  • Saw this on the dashboard, can't wait until Thursday to finally get my hands on this, even if it's just a demo for now
  • dope as a rope
  • is a SP demo or a MP demo?
  • so tight, now i can get used to the controls until it comes out!!

  • cant wait for this game, i just need money for it -_____-
  • @ 5,13,20 Just stop posting, you are making yourself sound even more dumb with every post. Can't wait for the demo!
  • @28: It's the comments section. Everybody has the right to output their opinion about the article, don't they? On-topic: Didn't expect a demo to be launched. Now I get to decide weather or not to cancel the pre-order.
  • @24 I'm wondering the same thing. I'm hoping it's a MP demo.
  • i hope we get to see sam's daughter get killed
  • Suprised there releasing a demo, a lot of AAA titles dont seem to release demos anymore, will def be dl this though
  • wow 31, what a random, slightly disturbing request. Cannot wait to play this Demo, dying to get the full game.
  • Pretty swish. Will certainly be giving this a DL on thursday
  • woo hoo.
  • Byahhh
  • Man this has been (and is going to be) an awesome March. Demo's, Perfect Dark, Final Fantasy, ah thats the life.
  • looks good but i need to choose which one i am geting first Splinter cell, or red dead redemption

  • will get it, but going to miss my mercs vs spies

  • =/ cba I dont get demo's I'd rather wait until the proper thing, plus the fact they take forever to download =P
  • This is a nice surprise, will instantly dl on Thursday.
  • yay never been 100% with this game, i'm glad theres a demo!
  • woop woop!!
  • Sweeeeet, Pefect Dark tommorow, then this. Sounds like a good week =D
  • Damn, that's early!
  • Nice, i was wondering when the demo would show up. hopefully has a bit of co-op in there too.
  • Can't wait! I love the SC games, and I think the faster gameplay might be a good way to go. But we'll see soon.
  • Alright, yeah!
  • SWEET TWO DAYS
  • Sweet, can't wait to play. The demo will include the interrogation bathroom scene which anyone who has followed should have seen in previews. Then the demo jumps to a later level in the game and you get to try out some of the game mechanics such as the mark system and the improved trademark nv goggles.
  • cant w8
  • Not like I need a demo since I pre ordered and paid off the game like a year ago before they moved it twice I think^^
  • I wonder if it will be online?
  • I don't think anyone really "needs" a demo for this game necessarily, but a lot of fans (such as myself) really, really want one.
  • @ blindxlink, get a bigger hard drive then u cheapskate or better still get an elite, enjoy ur white 20gb while it lasts !!
  • try before u buy even though i wud hav probly got it anyway
  • i dont want to have to wait till april for this one. they really messed around with the release of it. anyword itf its multiplayer?
