PC demos need Attract Mode
Although I must find time to write up a proper report on ECTS/EGN (etc.), something struck me about PC games - the fact that they rarely have an attract mode. PS2 and XBox games are regularly set up to detect inactivity and then switch into attract mode - running a short trailer - to make sure that constant activity on screen draws the eye of the passer-by. I passed by a number of PC games at the shows where nothing was happening on screen and because of a lack of background animation or other on-screen movement, a potentially exciting game was made to look dull.
