demo disks rule - 11-03-04

Ok, back in the day when I had a PS1, my brother used to steal the Demo game discs from the Playstation magazines.. anyways.. on one of them there was a game called "you can't stop Mr. Domino" or something like that. I don't even remember how it worked exactly, but you had to somehow set Mr. Domino in the right place and knock him over at the right time to get past obstacles. I was just wondering if anyone else knows about this game cuz it was friggen awesome. It is really cheesy, but it was actually really challenging!

Whats the best game you ever played from a demo disk?

I hate demo discs! Just when you really get into it, you can't go any further! It makes me want to throw the TV out the window and have a hissy fit.

may be, but it might also save you from spending money on a crappy game you'd get pissed at and smash your tv


You can look at it as a metaphor for the fleeting nature of human life, or just chalk it up to my being a sick, bloodthirsty monster. Either way, it's all the same.

It sounds like Tomba http://www.us.playstation.com/conten...us-94236/site/
Unless they made another game with a pink haired guy and evil pigs.


Work is of two kinds: first, altering the position of matter at or near the earth's surface relatively to other such matter; second, telling other people to do so.

Very good point. Your optimism frightens me.

I agree It was modeled on the Dizzy games like Treasure Island Dizzy.

CHAINDIVE, a japanese import, back in official playstation magazine- was a cool game in the same sort of control scheme style that shinobi had, but was cooler.

KILL.SWITCH, a third person mode shooter, very tense and realistic, seemed more like an FPS. good game all around.

PSI-OPS. excellent game, mild shit for a story.

BURNOUT3. cool crash and burn chaotic racer.

One thing that pisses me off is that I subscribe to 4 different game magazines, but us subscribers don't get the demo disks that come with the mags if you were to buy them at a store. Its fucked up. It should be the other way around, subscribers get the disks and no one else.

the magazines i subscribe to come with discs, OPM, OXB, computer gamers, etc... i wonder if yours are being stolen? one i know is psm, they have a viewable, not playable, dvd on the newstand, but not on subscription - i hate that mag anyway because its' kinda juvenile.

When I got my first PS I had a demo disk with this Rabbit thing on a sort of 3D platform game, which was quite novel at the time... it was highly trippy but very addictive. Never actually went out and bought the game though, it got boring after a few hundred attempts at collecting everything. I have no idea what it was called.
