Message: [QUOTE="Amag0k1, post: 25475, member: 330731"] Awesome article. And i totally resonate with this! Shareware 100% as this was how i discovered new games. This evolved in to demos later within magazines (EGM, PSN, Nintendo power, etc), and for the longest time was how i made my choices on video games, reading articles which i used to trust, playing the demon to gain my own opinion of the play, and also looking at old style forums which are superior to social media and respect your time more imho. This then went on a list, with first buys being the ones i invested in on release, and others waiting for the price to drop before i invested. What your describing is exactly what media like this should be, something to relax and bond over, sharing experiences and becoming better for it. Making real memories. This with demos and well with gaming in general is what i truly miss, as gaming back then complimented our lives, enriched it so that we could continue the grind. Now it takes advantage of us like an abusive partner, and will sell us out at a moments notice. [/QUOTE]
