MoH SP Demo Pulled

41
As has been the tradition a demo that was packaged along with a magazine CD made it out on to the net and was distributed through websites. We've done this a few times with demos through a few different publishers over the years, however it looks like EA is not one of those publishers. By request of EA:

I'm the EA Product Manager for MOHAA and although we're happy to have your support in getting our Single Player Demo out to PC gamers, we have an exclusive distribution agreement with Computer Gaming World and it's European equivalents.   So I have to ask you to remove your links or posting of this file until January 8th.

Generally the thinking has been from my discussions with publishers in the past is that the websites and magazines arent really in competition, and they just kind of turned the other way when this stuff happens. However things change. Out of respect for EA's wishes I kindly request that nobody post any further links to the demo here. It will be re-released in just a few days, and hopefully in a smaller package.
