Honestly, Wtf will pay for a demo...
EA is hurting their fanbase (if they even have one).
Reviews > demo's anyway.

Who in their right mind would pay 10 dollars to play a demo then drop 60 more for the full game???
The issue is that if this takes off (thanks to an uninformed and gullible casual gamers) then other publishers will start doing it.. next things it the norm (just like what Mw2 did)Quote:

Wow this beyond a joke. Gamers are getting royally screwed now
i think the term "demo" is the wrong word to use... if they were to call it a prequel, then i might buy it for cheap.
a prequel will have the same gameplay as the eventual full game, but with different content. this way you also wont feel ripped off when you play the same level from the demo in the full game, meaning you paid for the same content twice.
so, make it 4 hours long, charge $10 or $15 for it, make it unique content that WONT appear in the full game, and i will seriously consider it. kind of what Sony has been doing with the Gran Turismo games :) how many people forked out to play the demo of GT5? sorry, the Prologue...
