Title: GT3 Demo
Post by: DarkchimP on March 08, 2001, 06:47:36 PM

I know this has been talked about far too much but I was just wondering what the name of the mag was and if it\'s in Canada? Thanks for the help.

my friend told me that you can bid it in ebay, but it will cost a ton.  I\'ll just wait a couple month for the full version to come out. Now I only hope that they won\'t delay it again....

your friend is right..on eBay it costs around $60-80 for it...my friend sold his copy to a co-worker for $10..i was shocked..i would have paid him $20 for it..o well...im still going to get to play the demo

as for my 2 ways of getting the demos

1. i know some SONY reps
2. im not a store manager [i wish i was..but im only 19 and still in college]

i know some SEGA reps as well..i just had one stop by today..had us discount some DC games i think...wasnt paying attention

Yup. I\'ve seen a PS2  U.K. publication with a  demo disk at a local magazine shop. However, unless you have a European PAL PS2 rigged-up, you are only going to get some pretty pictures and a useless circular piece of plastic. I\'m sure the N/A general public will be getting some version in the not-too-distant future.

A lot of US games stores have the demo running.  I hate the LCD screen that those display things have.  Makes everything look like crap.

yea but my store is stupid - they won\'t put it in till the launch of the game gets nearer

or sometimes until the game is released - that ticks me off knowing they have it but won\'t put it in

dang it they need to let me borrow that thing - i want ...no i crave this game

give it to me...NOW...please!!!

Even on the LCD screen GT3 looks killer.
