Remember the time when we had demoes that we could test before commiting to a buy?
We should come back to that. Arguably Steam’s return policy could be used as a demo although it only gives access to the beginning of the game and the plethora of cinematics and tutorials, and does not focus on a core part of the gameplay.
I recently found my stash of 4chan flash animations. While some are mostly videos which could be read using VLC or extracted with ffmpeg, real flash animations or games could not be used. With this I can finally relive these memories.
A caveat to this is that sometimes your friend’s games run better since he/she removed the power-hungry annoying part that prevented you from borrowing it.
Absolutely unplayable !
