Re: Unreal playable demo from 1998 (does it exists?)
Very much thank you! Seems, like they didn't release standard demo. I already saw they were working mostly in secret (on presentations, only choosen people could watch first demos in 1997 etc)
Those demos looks, like they were released only to some card, or something special and limited, so seems "official demo", that any game company push before releasing their game, to make advertisement, and is presented in game magazines, does not exists with Unreal 1.
These ones looks like something special... I will definetly try it. Seems, like they wanted to make bigger "Shock effect" and didnt released official demo before, because Full version would not have so big shock effect with it. It's my guess only, of course, I can be wrong. But that would be reasonable explanation for me.
Anyway, accroding to describtion of those demo files, I can be happy, it would be played on 3dfx voodoo under Glide.
