Why don't you talk with the game companies to make a deal:
good demos->>>more people attracted to curent game->>>more buys->>>creators get money (and you 20% )

We could make a machine that forces them to slap themselves endlessly.

Everyone has made good points against introducing demos, but I'd like to nervously raise a hand in their favour.* What if we just added demos of new games?* It'd be an easy way to discover what was available.* Sure, you could get the demos from the creator's website, IF you knew who the creator was and even if the game existed in the first place.* Alternatively, if bandwidth is a problem for downloading big demos, what about just having links to where the demos can be downloaded and a few words about the kind of game it is and when it was released.
I don't like the idea of demos, I don't like the idea of their own little section, and I don't like that idea either. [/b][/quote]
I guess I kind of jumped the gun a bit there. Sorry Wendy.

Yes, but we'd need a DEMO version of that machine, so we'd be able to convince them to buy the thing!

However, the idea of making a section with links to great demos, complete with a review and screenshots is very good. Here are the reasons:


To sum up this point:
More visits --> Bigger reputation --> More visits
|
|--> More helpers --> More games --> More visits
|
|--> More ad clicks --> More money --> Bigger Server --> More games --> More visits


As long as we do NOT place the demos on our own server, I am all for it.


Tom has hit the point on the head i believe. Maybe this would give abandonia a big boost
