Go to GAMES on the top of the Matrix menu, and select Battles In Normandy.

May I ask why this (positive) departure from standard Matrix policy? It has always been an issue on the forums, this lack of demos. :)

It is not "standard policy" if we feel a demo of a game can be done and is usefull (a demo for "War in the Pacific" for example is not, same for other games that require a lot of reading ) then we think about releasing one. Then also the developer needs to have the time to actually produce a demo.

We have some demos released for other games too. For example, Massive Assault, Starshatter, Starships Unlimited Divided Galaxies.

Maybe sales have dropped off. Might be due to BiN being download /Online purchase only. KP was in the shops so maybe they havent sold as many as KP or expected more to be sold than actually went.

A demo is then a good way to go.

Status: offline 		you might want to update this page (which happens to be your front page):

http://www.matrixgames.com/default.asp?URL=http%3A//www.matrixgames.com/news/list.asp

where it says go to the ftp site to get it, and lo and behold it is not in that folder.

Status: offline 		Thanks, not sure why it was moved. You can also get to it by clicking on the "Games" link in the top bar, then Battles In Normandy, then Get Demo.
