HL2, Jump to Lightspeed Demos

Posted by Zonk on from the try-before-you-buy dept.

HomeLAN has details on newly available demos of two of the most interesting late-2004 releases. The folks over at Valve have released a Half-Life 2 demo, available where you download stuff, and FilePlanet has available a demo version of Star Wars Galaxies: Jump to Lightspeed should you want to try it out for 10 days.

    As promised, ATI.com has now released a demo of Half-Life 2 allowing folks with a Steam account to try out the recent best selling first person shooter from Valve Software.

    Oddly enough, that's the first thing I wondered about when I saw the article. You might as well just buy the full game if you're going to go through the process of getting a steam account and a verification just for a demo.
