- demo Windows Back Home by Stravaganza [web]
- Music rocks, design rocks, cameras rocks, modelling/texturing/storyline leaves a lot to be desired. But a nice one to watch!

- demo Windows A little urban fable by Threepixels [web]
- I didn't like the prod, sorry guys. I know, I hacked my way into the script in order to disable the blur, so I'm not thumbing it down based on an incomplete version.

- demo Windows Easter Egg by Orion [web]
- Bah, the usual jokedemo, fucking up the work of real demomakers. WHY does this have to happen every single party?

- demo Windows PostMortem01.02 by Threepixels [web]
- Nice and serves the purpose. Not enough work to deserve thumbs up but the little that is in there is pretty good.

- demo Windows Adrenalin by Smash Designs [web]
- I'm not sure if it deserved to win ms2k2, compared to fr-020 or other prods. Well, people voted it so it does, in a sense, but you know what I mean.
I enjoyed it a lot, which when combined with the huge work involved, makes it a very good production in my eyes. It's a bit too long, and it sorely misses running at a sustained 60 fps (it would have been worth it!), but well, it was:
- Different from the standard styles (abstract, coder-effect, techno and 3d story)
- Well produced
- An original theme
- Impressive to look at on the big screen (so everyone says).
So, what's not to like? It may not be trendsetting, but I don't understand all this whinning. :)

- demo Windows The Hit (Realtime)
- I would like to add one point that some of you may be missing... the original video is I think the only spanish production to ever win a prize in the Imagina show, and thus it holds quite dear memories for many of us. It obviously got a lot of exposure over here, and made us believe that good things could come out of our otherwise technologically-unproductive country.
Those dear memories certainly deserved the homage, just like 2nd Reality, Luxo, and other revolutionary productions have been referenced in countless other prods.
Sorry if the point is obvious, but for the sake of clarity...

- demo Windows The Hit (Realtime)
- Simple, well produced, entertaining, and has a point. Not revolutionary, but quite worth watching IMHO, thus the thumbs up.
Gore, they did the demo as a homage to a very good Imagina video, they did it with the consent and actual help from the author, and that is NOT ripping in my book. Do you think that the amazing C64's "second reality" remake is "ripping, not good, not creative"?? That's ridiculous, especially coming from someone who is using the nick from a very well known (even if inactive) scener.
As someone who has had one of his old demos "remade" by someone else into another form (4K intro), I can tell you it's feels flattering and really warm in the inside, not quite the same as ripping.
Oh well...

- 64k Amiga PPC/RTG Planet Potion by Potion
- Respect and admiration are indeed due. This is the most complete and impressive 64K ever (on any platform). The scripting is awesome, the demo flows and changes styles with perfect rythm.
The speech synth is one of those "why the fuck didn't I think of that earlier" ideas.
Back to the drawing board, my idea of "amazing" has changed once again.

- demo Windows teh futare si now by The PIMP Brigade
- I'm so surprised by the fact that I liked this demo a lot... wonder what makes it work for me, but it sure is groovy.

- demo MS-Dos Contrast by Oxygene [web]
- Awesome, the demo that (for me) proved that 3d engines could be put to good use beyond #polygons contests.
Too bad I can't watch it anymore.
