No Gears Of War Demo
Epic Games' Mark Rein has today told fans not to expect a demo before release. In a forum post Mark Rein comments: I don't see any way we could do a demo before the game comes out. We've said that before. Demos take a long time to create and polish and we can't afford to get derailled like that if we want to have the game in stores by Thanksgiving. Given a choice of the game this year or a demo this year and the game next year I'm sure every one of you would rather have the game this year because you're already planning to buy it. No idea if we'll do a demo or not after the game ships. I know we have some very cool plans (not 100% solid so too early to give any specifics) for additional downloadable so that might take a higher priority than creating a demo. Gears of War will be out on Xbox 360 on November 12th in America and November 17th in Europe.Source: http://gearsforums.epicgames.com/
