"We currently don’t plan on releasing a demo for the game"

cool. I "currently don't plan on gambling £35 of my hard earned cash on the strength of your screenshots"

In the mind of a lot of gamers, myself included, if there is no demo, the game is probably shit. We don't trust reviews any more. It's an interactive medium. Good reviews might make us seek out your demo. An outstanding demo (lego Star Wars 2) will get you sales you wouldnt normally have got. (I bought it :D). This is flipping obvious. The only logical conclusion is:

"This game sucks, but the trekkies will buy it anyway. Keep its suckiness under wraps"
bah.
