It was sad getting to see what EA did to the game afterwards. EA is a gaming company filled with bunch of A-holes that only care about money and that's it.

Justin11 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Lol, it is understandable that EA got a long way to go for sure, even it comes to recapturing it's best moments. The games they made in the past is better off nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad bought a pizza he didn't really fancy just so I could get the game, and I don't like pizza, so it was nice to come back with several complete games in cheap jewel cases. Other than that, most recently I've eaten Super Noodles for Call of Duty: Black Ops - Cold War in-game stuff that I never used, but the double XP was appreciated. I remember PlayStation and Pizza Hut teamed together to give away demo discs. I think I still have the demo in my collection, alone with the cardboard sleeve. I don't remember them giving away actual games though. Withywarlock 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if you get to find it later, are you sure that it's still going to be a good playing condition with all your relocation and packing stuffs around?

Yaramaki Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 I know off candy bar brand that had ps1 demo disk with rollcage on it (and a buch of other games), you could do one lap and had to take a photo of your time and mail it in to win a copy of the game. Not really interesting but i had a lot of fun with that demo good memories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure taco bell, McDonald's and others released demo discs too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder, were they mostly PC demos? I feel like console games didn't get dropped much in happy meals sadly. But I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I distinctly remember the demos, so I might well be remembering full games for a non-food based promotion elsewhere or the were a much more limited promotion.

Personally, I really think that it's the demos that they are most likely inclined to give in such situations. There is a reason for that right?

I have a very good reason to believe that most of us gamers were very familiar with the demos because it was almost reoccurring all the time then.

Kane99 Posted February 4, 2022 Author Share Posted February 4, 2022 I remember the PC games you'd get in kellogs cereals. I think I got the first Spiderman demo disc from a cereal box. Wish they still did that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
