you know thats wat play n trade is for, instead of playing those stupid, not-very-informational demos, try the real thing. i hate it when some makers make an awesome demo and then the game turns out to be crap.
I've actually found most of the demos to be pretty much a good indicator of what the entire game is like. I'd much rather DL a demo from my couch than drive to the local game rental store any day.
Exactly, and it doesn't cost anything, where renting would. Besides, most demo's I've ever played are just a stage ripped from the actual game, and may let you test a few extra weapons that you may not have yet in the real game. I don't see how it's really that off.
you dont rent a play n trade, you try before you buy. heck ive seen 10 year olds hang out there for hours playing games there... but i dont know if they're suposed to. usually games are only played by people who are buying a game.
