SGF just started. What games are folks looking forward to?

Also am I the only one that looks at the games and if it doesn’t have a Demo I just go on to the next one? if it has a demo then I look at it to see if I’m interested in it. LOVE demos and miss the days when all games had demos and tried to sell themselves to you.

I think with better accessibility of video reviews and let’s plays of games, where you can see actual gameplay, the need for demos decreased. At least I do not really miss them that much. I also think the size of today’s games contributes to it. If I have to download 80 gb to test a game for 20 mins to find out I do not like, then I prefer to watch a quick video to get a first impression.

On the other hand, I played the ut2003 demo for months back in the day. Did not care that only a few maps were included, and my pc was too shitty for the blocked higher graphic settings anyway. That was a great demo.
