Demo
Release Round-Up
(May
28, 2004)
Pro
Rugby Manager 2004 (Cyanide Studios)
"For
those unfortunate enough not to have experienced the glory of decimating
the French team with the greatest team in the world – England -
Digital Jesters has thoughtfully provided an easy way in: a brand new
multiplayer-enabled demo.
Players can choose from single-player, LAN connection or online play.
Although there are four teams available - England, France, Biarritz and
Leicester - it's likely that most will be aching to recreate the
dramatic confrontation between the two international squads. More
relevant is the choice of two stadiums, allowing the complete domination
of all things French on their home turf and on ours. Which is obviously
how it should be."

Chaos League (Strategy
First/Pointsoft)
"Digital
Jesters, in conjunction with developers Cyanide, and other publishers,
Strategy First and Pointsoft are delighted to provide the baying public
with their first opportunity to lay their paws on the highly original
game Chaos League.
Chaos League takes Real Time Strategy and places it in a savage sporting
arena. The result is a frantic, violent single and multiplayer ball game
that has a number of journalists heralding it as "unlike anything
PC gamers of this generation have experienced."
This demo features a small selection from the wide variety of exciting
races to try out - the Barbarians and the Undead - each allowing a
unique style of play.
Three matches in a row will be allowed before the demo has a bad mood
and insists you do the dishes, which will be nowhere near enough to sate
your appetite. How convenient, then, that the full game will let you
play all day and all night, and will be available in the shops soon-ish,
with a SRP of £29.99."
