Hi all !
I am new to this wonderful site! Incredible work being done here.
I've just downloaded UE3 2004 engine beta and will attempt to run it. (might need help)

Also I've just got hl2 anon alpha version and some patches.
Still looking for proper doom3 alpha and painkiller.

I remember those years. Playing those alphas

Awaiting those wonderful games. This forum is a blast for me.
I don't have access to the ftp servers. Am I good with forums only or do I really need that access if I am heavily into games betas (and patches to make them work correctly) ?
I mostly care about e3 presentations and other tech demos, so there isn't all that much of this stuff

edit

MG. I just got myself access to Your FTP server.

IT IS GLORIOUS HEAVEN ?! Who am I suppose to thank ?
I will donate somehting in a couple of months after I get a work

This is so awesome words cannot describe it

Thanks community !

I am glad to see that you like it

I felt/feel the same way about the FTP, It is amazing, especially because it is freely shared.

Thanks for these, I was looking for some of them. Are there any Duke Nukem Forever betas that have been leaked?

Wasn't this one just a fanmade hack?

I hope you people upload these to BA as they come in? I rarely check this thread and it would be a lot helpful if people upped these to the FTP so we can preserve them.

No sadly and I doubt we'll ever see any really.

Yeah, I thought so. In my opinion the 2001 trailer looked miles better than the retail, which I did not like.

Just found while browsing my old cds - Slave Zero pre-alpha demo.

Code:

Slave Zero(tm)   README.TXT
January 4, 1999
(c)1998, 1999 Accolade, Inc.  All rights reserved.
This demo only represents a small portion of the final product.  
The demo has a sample mission which contains a few weapons and a few enemies.

The final game will include intense multiplayer action, mammoth bosses, greater 
functionality and of course more missions and a lower minimum system requirement

This version has not been optimized and requires a PII 266 or equivalent
to function acceptably.

Have fun

No it isn't. I released the prototype years ago on my site, it was a legitimate prototype cart. I dont deal in fakes.

Here's a pre-release demo of Descent to Undermountain, a Dungeons & Dragons licensee first-person action/RPG made on the Descent game engine. The demo was originally from a Computer Gaming World Magazine cover disk:
http://www20.zippyshare.com/v/45799600/file.html

The included readme promised an updated interactive demo available from Interplay's website:

Quote:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INTERPLAY DISCLAIMER
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This version of the DESCENT TO UNDERMOUNTAIN demo is a special Computer Gaming World
only preview of the upcoming interactive demo. It does contain some known bugs which
may lock up your system.

For an updated version of the DESCENT TO UNDERMOUNTAIN interactive demo, please point
your browser to Interplay's Dragonplay website at http://www.interplay.dragonplay.com and
download the demo from the DESCENT TO UNDERMOUNTAIN product page.

However, it appears that only a non-interactive preview was released for download (here's an archived copy of the demo downloads page).

LOL, attempting to download the file will request you for a username and a password. I hate it when that happens.

What, you're talking about Zippyshare?

Euronymous · **Post subject:** Re: Game Beta Downloads **Posted:** Sat Jul 07, 2012 12:36 am

No, sorry - I tried clicking on that download link in the archived site.

MrFlibble · **Post subject:** Re: Game Beta Downloads **Posted:** Sun Jul 08, 2012 2:56 pm

Ah, it's just that the Wayback Machine doesn't have the file. I suppose it's available on the net somewhere. Pity they didn't make a complete playable demo though, the game was rather unusual.

Here's a PSX Metal Gear Solid pre-release demo. This version has a different main menu (only 2 entries). It has english subtitles but codec audio is in japaneese. The demo ends when you enter first ventilation.

May I remind our members (especially our new ones) that this thread is only for offers and not requests. And please check our FTP archives before you post stuff, if we have it already then there's no need to post it here again.

Any requests here will be permanently deleted and the user will be issued a warning. We have strict rules regarding requesting releases.

Thanks goes to all members offering new releases here, I try to check in on this thread from time to time, but if you want to make sure that your offer gets into our archives make sure you upload it to our FTP (and if you can't upload due to no access then PM me and I'll setup a temporary upload account for you).
