Viewtiful Joe’s Demo Literally erased my memory card way back in the day. I’ve NEVER played the full release til this day.

The PAL release of Soul Calibur 3 corrupted my PS2 memory card and I haven't touched the series since.

I wish EVERY game had a demo tbh. Especially with the prices of games now. Currently want to play Rise of the Ronin but can't justify £70 blind. EDIT: I know every game has reviews to watch but they are subjective and generally just one individuals opinion.

I personally like to watch a no commentary walkthrough to get a feel of if I'll like a game or not if there's no demo. It's not a perfect method, obviously, but it works better for me than reviews. I'll pay attention to the combat and even mimic the buttons I'd use to have a rough idea of the feel. Still wish every game had a demo, though!

Marvel’s Avengers. Had the $100+ digital edition ordered. After about an hour, something just didn’t click and felt off. Then after PSN finally let me cancel and get my money back, the game released & the hidden MX & loot grinding was worse than everyone was sold.

Forspoken was the only one of these that I actually played the demo of, and yes, it made me decide against buying the full game. (for the others I wasn't even interested enough to try the demo).

Truly expected Balan Wonderworld to be here, since everyone was excited for the game until the demo released. It was so bad they actually pulled the demo from the servers, but by then the damage was done.

I liked too human true the control is a little wonky but I still remember in the last battle when the Valkyrie took the dude giving cover fire for her so she could take his dead buddy. That was burned into my memory even for playing it once.

Lazer Tag home sets actually came out in the 80s. I may still have my set from 1986 laying around somewhere. I remember there was a baseball cap with a sensor on it that is rather humorous to look at now.

It's funny because this is exactly what happened to me with Forspoken. I hadn't watched any reviews or anything on it, played the demo and was like "Is it just me or is this awful?" Then proceeded to find many in agreement online.

@Ayyocamacho 14 днів тому
The content that was actually in too human was actually pretty decent and the story was intriguing. The main problem was there was just 4 or so really long levels for the whole game and admittedly the controls can be pretty divisive. I kinda wish they built on it more though

I loved too human, it didn’t seem as basic when I was playing it, i loved the loot system and the combat and I liked the Norse style story, ever since I’ve only heard people bash it and I don’t understand why everyone hates it now

Duke Nukem Forever. Oh, wait… I forgot to cancel the preorder after I played the demo 😅 And I should have canceled the preorder for Fallout 76. I thought it would be better on release somehow, but I still can‘t stand this game.

I follow gaming news regularly, both from major outlets and smaller ones. Physical magazines, YT channels, Reddit's, etc. I have never heard of Ghost Recon Frontline.. Lol that's a testament to how unnecessary and unwanted a multiplayer-only Ghost Recon game is and how quickly it clearly failed and disappeared Lol that Battle Tag stage demo was CRINGE, the very definition of the term. The stiff, unmoving and quiet audience says it all, they all felt embarrassed for the participants

I don't usually bother with demos but I thought I'd give the Forspoken one a go and I'm so glad I did so I didn't waste £70. It is a shame though because I was pretty excited about the game before hand
@reaper0470
@reaper0470 7 днів тому
Every time I see Capcom going for another RE multiplayer they always look bad. Although on paper Resistance seemed like a good idea it was not done well and riddled with bugs, cheaters, and overpowered players being placed with newcomers basically funneling them out from wanting to keep playing. They've been sitting on one of the best multiplayers for RE that came out ahead of it's time and despite fan servers being online to play and a constant outcry of wanting a legit remaster or even sequel they still have done nothing with RE Outbreak. At this point I feel if they did they'd ruin what should be a slam dunk anyway.

Unfortunately the upcoming Star Wars Outlaws demo videos remind me a lot of Forspoken. You have a protagonist that is constantly spewing badly-written one liners, to the point where it detracts and distracts from the gameplay, and makes everything else just seem...meh.

@fullmetalsoldier6511 16 днів тому
I actually think Resistance, Outbreak and Raccoon city are some of their best multiplayer games compare that to the horrible rail shooters and super crawling shooter games I stand by them as a fun time. The tech wasnt their for one and there wasnt enough support for the other

Balan Wonderworld came out with so many issues that Square had to say that they'd fix whatever they could but it'd just be graphical touchups. They couldn't do anything about the design flaws and they obviously didn't want to bother. At least the cutscenes looked good.

But I love Too Human. Also, Battle Tag releasing in stores across Texas is not the least bit surprising if you're American, that is. After all, Texas is the US capital of the Second Amendment. And Jules, one thing you should never do is patronize Konami. When they screw up (and it's not surprising when they do, as it happens often), you absolutely nail it into them. You crush every fiber of the Konami execs beings, show them why pissing off a fanbase is a terrible idea. Konami exists to get everyone to absolutely hate them, and they're spiteful. You put their company name on a resume, they literally go out of their way to ruin the former employee's life.

There are some games that are so infamously bad, that there comes a time when bringing them up adds nothing to the discussion. "Too Human" is the ultimate example. Its every flaw and blemish and suppurating gash have been poked and prodded so many times that even in a brand new video, everyone can almost literally recite the script along with the narrator because there is absolutely NOTHING being added or revealed; everyone already knows everything wrong with it. Children of the future will be born with the knowledge of everything terrible about "Too Human" indeliblely scored into each and every one of their chromosomes, without ever having physically heard those two words spoken aloud and together. When I see the game on a list now, I know that it's safe to either zone out for several minutes or not even bother with the video for the same reason I don't rechew a piece of Juicy Fruit to get more flavor.

In recent memory, Square hit quite the triple note for me with Forspoken, Valkyrie Elysium, and Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth (the latter in particular after Remake's demo had left me cautious, and the full game leaving me feeling correct about my prior caution) for separate, yet similar reasons.

I was kinda hyped for Soulstice until I played the demo which showcased PS2 era graphics, uninspired (and at times frustrating) combat mechanics, and way to many invisible walls for a linear level. The worst part of the demo was the boss at the end which made you constantly chase after it while it attacks from a distance and sends mobs after you.

So common misconception about Fallout 76, but in fairness that's because of Bethesda's dumb marketing, 76 DID have NPCs, they were just robot models and not human looking NPCs. The more accurate statement is that it had no "Story NPCs", that was more or less meant to be made up by players. But there were still quest givers and shops like any other game, they just weren't human types.
