Why would the friend buy it in the first place, if they were like you? They would be waiting for you to buy it.

As for the demo, how would you even know the game (or it's demo) existed if nobody had spread the word about it with hype and PR?

The part about reviews by magazines and websites is good, but how are THEY gonna know about it without any hype and PR?
