We all have to agree on one thing though: Just Cause 2 has the best demo ever.

I bought that game as soon as it released because of that demo.
[QUOTE=RichyZ;48345981]there is a loss on refunds iirc, the cut that valve gets from a game purchase is not refunded by valve and is paid fully by the dev if a refund occurs[/QUOTE]
which is a great incentive for devs to put effort into their games. no more guaranteed money on misleading products
[quote]Every developer we spoke with is currently working from very limited information about how Steam refunds are performing, but there was broad consensus that the feedback they provide should be better if it’s going to help them make decisions and respond to customers.[/quote]
As someone with a game on steam I really agree with this, the feedback I'm getting from the refunds are really vague. Like someone just saying that the game crashes. I can't really work with that.

Dark Messiah was great as well. They knew kicking people into flimsy scaffolding was the best part of their game, and chose a level where literally every room was full of physics traps like that.
You could play custom maps in the demo, so there was a fairly large amount of content out for it, before the actual game was even released.
