So now that the E3 rush is over it, we can expect to see a few demos
coming out over the next few weeks. Here is what has hit FileShack recently:
- Civilization
IV: Beyond the Sword Demo
This demo just hit the net in the past couple of hours so I can't tell you if it's any good,
but it's hard to go wrong with a Civ game, isn't it? As an added bonus, you can test our
new Quicksilver download servers with this demo. Hit it with a download manager and ten
connections!
- Ultima
Online: Kingdom Reborn Client
The grandfather of MMOs has been reborn. You can check out a trailer
of the revamps before you go downloading a couple of gigs.
- Upshift
StrikeRacer Client
If car combat is your thing, this demo is probably worth checking out. It doesn't really
have the graphics to blow you away but it's a nice distraction for about a half hour--although the
gameplay isn't really all that hot either. Ok, it's probably not worth bothering.
Sorry.
- Dead Reefs Demo
A murder adventure game. Check it out if that's your thing. It's not mine.
- War Wound Demo
Fans of isometric strategy will get a kick out of this one. It's a little hard to
figure out what's going on at first, but it does feel rewarding once you do. Hey,
it's better than work. DO IT.
- Ghost
Recon Advanced Warfighter 2 Demo
It's Ghost Recon. You're really advanced. You fight wars. As much as I did enjoy the first
game, this one just didnt grab me as much. Still, if you're a fan of the franchise it's worth checking out.
