So, it's confirmed, no Far Cry 2 demo love for us. Then again, it isn't like we don't have 20 minutes of game footage to garner some sort of opinion off of. But that's looking at the whole thing from a "glass half full" perspective.
No Far Cry 2 demo and no hours of fun for you

If Crytek made a demo for Crysis, which shares pretty much the same genes with FC, i can't really understand what in the name of drool worthy graphics is that man talking about? It is entirely possible to make a demo out of it. Put just one mission, a timer...anything. They gave the same stupid reason with Assassin's Creed but they could have easily restricted the game to a couple of side missions. There invisible walls in the game anyway! Christ!
Ubisoft wants to play it risk free. Because there is already so much hype for this game, people are bound to buy it anyway. But what if a demo changes their mind? That will be a huge loss for them. So no demo from them. I am sure AC wouldn't have sold so well if Ubi had released a demo.
Anyway, not having a demo is going to disappoint PC gamers more than us console guys. They would want to test run it to see how good their PC can handle it. Ahh, i am going to play it on the PC anyway. I got myself a new ATi 4850 just for this and Crysis Warhead. No demo surely disappoints me!

They're just asking for piracy doing this. People want to know if they can run the game on high enough settings to enjoy it, and get a feel of the game, before they shell out 60$ for it.
They should AT LEAST release a benchmark tool for the game, allowing you to at least see how well it runs, and give you a small glimpse of the "wow"
