U may never play the full game.

Hope that doesn't mean game isn't flawed entirety, just the demo unlocking when the player pays for it's full version. I never like this pay-to-play. I rather just buy darn thing without any tricky programming to unlock darn thing.

Which you can still do this method is only for people who prefer the digital route, and isn't really all that complex.

I wonder what kind of quality control they were using. Also, from a technological standpoint, how could one unlock (without hacking) a full game from the demo?
