Playable Demos
Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater	Finally, Snake is back! This demo is magnificent on all counts! The improved gameplay and graphics of Metal Gear Solid 3 makes this game ultimately the best in the series! Plus the demo is huge, with nearly 2 hours of gameplay contained with no demo timeouts! The demo starts with the entire video prologue to the game, and then features the beginning levels in the forest, swamp and around a building! This really could be the best demo of 2005!

Full Spectrum Warrior	Full Spectrum Warrior is a very impressive military command and control game! In this game, you control 2 4-man combat teams as they sweep through an urban battle scene taking out insurgents and providing ground support. This demo has a multitude of levels to try, with 5 training levels and 2 combat levels contained. Gear up soldier!

Death by Degrees	The Nina character from the Tekken series get her own game and this is a third person action adventure! The game certainly has impressive presentation and the 360 degree style fighting is controlled through the analog sticks (very similar to Rise to Honor controls.) However, it becomes monotonous quickly, and the long-term gameplay is simply not there. This demo allows you to control Nina through an initial fighting stage, than a sniper stage!

King of Fighters: Maximum Impact	This is the 10 year anniversary edition of King of Fighters and for those not familiar with King of Fighters, this is a old-skool 2D fighting game! This game perfectly reproduces the old arcade fighting games of 10 years ago. However, today it looks basic compared to modern fighters! This demo provides 3 characters to battle with!

Megaman X8	Megaman is one of the oldest platform-shooter franchises around, and this update is a cool 2D game! It has heaps of action, character swaps, power-ups, level design and brilliantly colourful backdrops! This demo contains the jungle section to test your blasting skills! The robot bosses in this are just huge!!

Legend of Kay	Legend of Kay is a good platformer that looks and plays very similar to the original Jak! If it had been released 3 years ago it would have been very impressive, but nowdays it just does not have the "wow" factor! This demo contains the beginning tutorial level to the game.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2	The heroes in a half-shell are back in this cartoon-style action adventure game! The gameplay in this demo is pretty simplistic and definitely aimed more at the junior gamers! While it is still fun, older gamers will become bored with this quickly! This is one more for the kids!

Ace Combat 5: Squadron Leader	This is the same demo as featured on Demo 56, and Ace Combat 5 is by far the best jet fighter game on the PS2! The graphics are superb, the action is frantic and it has a host of jets to fly! This demo is impressive with 3 different sections to fly missions on!

Playable Demos
TimeSplitters: Future Perfect	TimeSplitters: Future Perfect is undoubtedly one of the best FPS on the PS2!! The already brilliant TimeSplitters 2 has been completely overhauled, and this game has stunning graphics, frantic action and more weaponry! This game will give all other first-person-shooters a run for it's money, plus the online mode will be fantastic! This demo contains the beginning section of Level 1 to try out!

Ace Combat 5: Squadron Leader	Fans of the Ace Combat series will not be disappointed as Ace Combat 5 returns with superb gameplay, more fighter planes and a new wingman feature! The Ace Combat series is really the best jet fighter games on the PS2, and Ace Combat 5 continues to push the boundaries! This demo contains 4 different stages to test your aerial dogfight skills on!

Metal Slug 3	Metal Slug 3 is a return to the 2-dimensional shoot-em-up scrollers of yesteryear! It has everything needed for a brilliant shoot-em-up! Great weapons with huge powerups, heaps of gorgeous landscapes, and of course crazy enemies constantly after you! This demo contains the whole first level to blast through!

Nanobreaker	Nanobreaker is a 'hack and slash' game that unfortunately becomes repetitive very quickly! While it has some great combo moves and solid atmosphere, it has a 'seen it all before' feel with nothing new. Best to wait for Devil May Cry 3 compared to this! This demo gives you an entire level to hack and slash through!

Prince of Persia 2	This Prince of Persia 2 demo is the same demo as contained on Demo 54 - and this game is really worth checking out if you have not already played it! It contains some of the best fighting moves seen on the PS2 and has a fantastically dark atmosphere!

Transformers	The Transformers demo is the same demo as contained on Demo 46, and it is still a good solid game! It is a third-person shooter with the ability to transform to the alter ego of the selected robot. Check this out if you have not already played Transformers!

Moto GP3	Now we are really getting old! Moto GP3 was originally released on Demo 33 back in May 2003! It is still one of the better motorbike racing games on the PS2 and if you really like it, you should be able to pick up the game on Platinum now.

Athens 2004	This is a shocker! Athens 2004 is the button bashing game released for the Athens 2004 Olympic games! This demo was originally released on Demo 48 and it was bad even then! Avoid this at all costs!

Playable Demos
Mercenaries	This is a great free-roaming 3rd person action game in the same vein as GTA but set in a warzone! This demo is huge and provides an entire mission set in North Korea - and with no demo timeout!

Rumble Roses	Considering all of the wrestling games on the market, something different had to come along, and Rumble Roses gives you the girls to wrestle with! This demo includes both the traditional wrestling ring and a mud wrestling pit as beauty meets brawn!

Mashed	This is a whole new level for Mashed, not even included in the full game that was released! If you have not seen this top-down racer, check it out as it pretty addictive with a group of people!

Burnout 3	This is the same demo as from Demo 50 - Definitely the wildest and fastest racing game through traffic and this game is exhilarating! The demo has a 1 lap race to test out your driving and slamming skills! Buckle up for this one!

Killzone	This is the same demo as from Demo 52 - The highly anticipated Killzone is finally here and this demo shows how gritty & realistic this FPS really is! Detailed graphics, a huge wall of sound and solid enemy AI, makes this one of the premier FPS on the PS2! This demo contains the slum level and is timed for 7 minutes!

Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow	This is the same demo as from Demo 49 - Sam Fisher is back in this stealth action 3rd person adventure game! This game plays well and is a reasonable update to the original. This demo has a training level to start on and then a village mission level after that.

Pro Evolution Soccer 4	This is the same demo as from Demo 52 - The PS2's best soccer game just got better & PES4 is beyond superlatives! This game has it all - improved animations, more moves, smarter teamwork and fun by the bucketloads! This demo is timed for 5 minutes and allows up to 8 players to play as either England, Spain, Italy or Sweden in an international friendly!
