Support NeoGAF

[Kumiko Nikaido]

I was glancing over some marketing support material for Namco's upcoming Tekken 5, and I noticed it stated they intend to include trailers and/or playable demos of it with their "holiday releases" of Death by Degrees and Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War for PS2.

Seeing as how Death by Degrees was pushed back to next year, I'd assume that the Tekken 5 playable demo will be included with that game. Since Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War is right around the corner, most likely a trailer of it will be included with that game.

Content subject to change, of course.

Err, how is this a bad thing. Extra demo's rock.

Having to buy a game you don't want just to play a demo of a game you do want? God bless Konami for putting MGS3 demo in OPM this time around. That ZOE MGS2 pack-in was BS.

Whoa so does this mean PS2 isn't going to have a problem handling System 258-boosted T5 graphics?

Tekken 5 is loaded with effects and polycounts galore, and I thought the game would be a bit much for a PS2 to swallow. I guess not!

Well, if it's the only way to the get the demo I agree it sucks. If not, that's cool.

Heathen! how could you NOT want AC5?!

Anyone who spends $50 on a game just to get their hands on a demo disc that's packed in with it is a moron. If it's a demo of a game you do want, exercise a little patience and put the money aside for when the full game's released, rather than wasting it on some game you could care less about just to play a 1-2 level demo of a game you've already decided to buy anyway.

 

[Late Stage Marxist]

For the record I have never bought a $50 game to get a pack-in demo, however I am irritated by the fact that said demo is only available to those who do in fact purchase the game it is bundled with.

 

[Jonnyram]

It's cool if the demo comes with AC5, but if it only comes with Death By Degrees...
There is no way I will be stooping so low.

Tekken 3 came out on PS1...games can be downgraded when ported(though if it isn't arcade perfect, i wouldn't expect T5 to PS2 to be as much of a downgrade as T3 to PS1 was)

Thank you, you said it all. I'll stop there this time, I'm usually cranky in the morning

 

[DarienA]

Everyone in the world should be buying AC5 any damn way so da problem is?

 

[Leviathan]

DBD looks like shit.

I agree. Tekken 5 looks awesome though. I can't wait for that game.

 

[Kumiko Nikaido]

Ok, it's confirmed that a playable demo of Tekken 5 will be included with Death by Degrees on PS2.

 

[Miburou]

All you DBD haters can kiss my ass.

Actually, I've yet to play the game. I just felt like saying that.

And some people here have paid $35 or so for the RE4 demo alone. Buying a $50 game for a demo doesn't seem so "moronic" by comparison.
