Bonus Question: Is there a game you bought for a reason other than the game itself?
Brave Fencer Musashi for the FFVIII demo and Dragon Quest VIII for the Final Fantasy XII demo. :D
Also, I think a big chunk of the reason you don't see this done so often anymore is just how digitalized much of the gaming industry has become. Demos are often set to 'download dates' and such these days. It's just a different, more efficient but colder sort of a world now.
That said, Dragon's Dogma comes packed with a very early Resident Evil 6 demo. That's sure to turn some heads. So it can still be done if there are several months to spare, I guess!
