Demo Discs were samples/trial levels of a video game released before a title’s release. Demos came in three varieties: Retail, Subscription, and Trade. Retail demos were given away or used at retailers like Kay Bee, GameStop, EB Games, and so on. Subscription demos were mail-away demos, like those in PlayStation Magazine and the PlayStation Underground. Finally, Trade Demos were samples provided to retailers, journalists, and media publications.
This page is a bit under construction as new demos / new variants of demos are discovered.
