Demo coming?

[LUSITANO]

Do they have a demo ready for the tokyo game show? I f so i hope they release it for the fans. I read that they would let people try out the game! Can any confirm this?:cheers:

 

[Axyon]

We don't know, but VALVe is probably standing by the fact that they will not be releasing a demo before the game is out.

 

[Demonmerc]

If ECTS was any indication, the old E3 footage will be shown in Tokyo.

 

[Zraisfury]

Nah, doubt we'll see a demo..

 

[ray_MAN]

Probably not....

 

[[Matt]]

I hope we will see new stuff but i doubt it...

 

[VoidWraith]

No, they don't have any new stuff. Yes, I'm sure, and its somewhere in the Valve info thread (page 21 I think).

 

[bouche]

I've gone through the demo vids over and over and I can now perfectly mimic the movements of Gordon with my mouse and keyboard.

Once you get that down, it's just like playing the game....FOOL YOUR FRIENDS!

:bounce:

 

[Obz]

yes. there will be a demo. Obviously!! duh!

 

[mhtsaras]

I hope that they'll release a somewhat playable bench demo soon to keep the ppl busy, and don't do the same mistakes like the many canceled releases of doom3, which made the ppl lose the interest, and doom3 forums dead.

 

[Alphy]

You make an excellent point however. IF they do have a playable demo @ the Tokyo game show then I would make a wager saying that on the 30th they would probaly release it. Big "IF" there though, you can never, ever be certain with Valve.

 

[poseyjmac]

ya know, there may be a demo before the game comes out. why? because valve said there isnt' going to be one. and as we know, what valve says, take with a grain of salt

 

[BlackMesaDude]

Dont expect it this year.

Ya really - just a room with a kiddie pool + some watermelons to throw around! That would do for now....

HL2 multiplayer stress test for Steam...

 

[poseyjmac]

[incorrigible]

They did say they wouldn't release a demo before the game, however, this was before the delay announcment. Things may change ...
