That post made little sense.
Please rewrite it using proper English.
I am not sure what you are talking about.

Hello /drl/, I got a magazine from my local convenience store the other day. To my surprise, as i looked at the latest games, they had Cortex Command on the list! I was wondering if they used the Demo version on the CD. I really think that would be stupid. Anyway, long story short, CC is getting popular!


Answer: Of course. To use the full version, they would need a key for it. Keys only work for 1 person. Hundreds of people read the magazine. Those hundreds of people wouldn't be able to play the full game due to 1-key-per-person.

PCGamer would have to literally spend $20 on every person that reads the magazine, IN ADDITION TO the magazine cost. It's simply impossible they could supply their reader base with a full copy.

The demo, while limited, is still fun. It showcases the game, but makes sure they need to buy it to get the full experience of a drawn out match. I personally think Data's a genius with a 5/10 minute timer.

tl;dr: Of course its a demo. Data is smart.
