These are always great for checking out a bunch of new games in a row, and the closest you can get to a Gamescom or E3 (God rest it) experience without having to physically go there and stand in long queues. Win-win!

I still wonder why con demos aren't released at the same time to the public.

I always felt the next logical stop for E3's survival was a $20 pass which gave players access to all the floor demos for a month (even if it was streaming-only to avoid datamining)

I could see that working. Digital con passes would be incredibly useful for sites with a limited budget too.

It's a shame you can't download them all in one bumper app with a menu to select the demo you want to play. Would be just like getting old demo discs on magazines.
