    We used to demand trials before buying before

    We did? When exactly? Not when I was buying games for my consoles on the flea market and not when I got Rollercoaster Tycoon from a cereal box.

      You’re taking it too literally. I meant demand as in trying it first for free BEFORE buying. Without trying it, how can we know if the game is good to play. Sorry for the miscommunication. English isn’t my first language

      In the mid to late 90s and the early 2000s. PC gaming magazines and PlayStation magazines used to give away demo discs for you to trial new games.
