No GOW2 demo coming
Quote:
Tanya Jessen, the associate producer of Epic Games' Gears of War 2, has announced that there will be no demo for the upcoming Xbox 360 exclusive. According to her, this is because "it's been such a fast turnaround. A two year production cycle, for a game of this caliber, is really short."
She pointed out that the company is focused on releasing the "best possible game" they can and that working on a demo is essentially working on a whole new product (which would probably split up their work force). However, she did hint that they might work on a demo after the game ships when she said, "as far as our plans after we ship, I can't really speak to that."
This is pretty similar to what happened to Gears of War for the Xbox 360 which didn't have a demo either but went on to sell over three million copies with its first ten weeks in the market place. Could this be Epic Games sticking to the old adage, "don't fix what isn't broken"? More importantly, will it work this time around?

No Gears of War 2 Demo Planned - Shacknews - PC Games, PlayStation, Xbox 360 and Wii video game news, previews and downloads
Im pretty surprised by this. I think a demo is a must for this game.

They are just trying to surprised everyone with the actual game. They will only show trailers before the release, basically like what GTAIV did.

Gamers already know the core gameplay mechanic and with the new Unreal engine upgrades that have been shown already i think a vast amount of Gears heads are eagerly awaiting the second game.
Its going to look awesome and play well and the story will continue....
Sod the demo, i want the real deal

Ya well many thought the same about Vegas 2. Just because the first one kicked ass does not mean the 2nd one will.

I've yet to be banned, but then again, i'm new, and i don't exactly plan on breaking any rules, that's not my kind of thing. Why join a forum and clicking "I agree" to abide by the rules, then disregard them??
