I love demos, especially for games I'm not sure about getting. I'd like to know the general gameplay and such. Mass Effect 2, Force Unleashed 2 and Raskulls, for example.
I wasn't sure, so I tried them. I was so immensely bored by Mass Effect 2's demo, I'm super glad I didn't both buying it way back when it came out, and I still don't care.
Force Unleashed II demo was kinda fun, especially the dual-lightsabers, but it didn't warrant a full game purchase, much a less the collector's edition.
Raskulls though.. The demo alone MADE me want it so badly. I want more Microsoft Points. Now. I must play further! I missed platformer races..
But now.. I wanted to download the Crysis 2 and BulletStorm demos from XBL.. OF COURSE I CAN'T FUCKING DOWNLOAD FREE DEMOS. Stupid Xbox Live "Free". I had Gold for 12 months, haven't bothered (or want to throw more money away right now) to renew it, but to block me from FREE game demos? Ugh.. Microsoft is converting me into a Sony fan.
