There were several complaints by members of the gaming community, both site adminstrators and users, regarding exclusivity to game demo downloads. A mission was sparked after the last debate concerning the Call of Duty demo a few months back.

Now, even though many of the websites offering demo downloads are competitors, a good faith agreement has been made to offer such downloads without exclusivity.

What does this mean for you and me? It means we no longer have to pay for various download privileges on such sites as Gamespy, Fileshack, etc. just to get our hands on the latest demo at the time of its release. The demo should find its way all over the net at the same time and we can all have fun together.

Awesome. Good news.
