Fallout 3 Demo Not Possible

Eurogamer talked to Pete Hines, who affirmed what everyone assumed; Fallout 3 will not have a demo. It is, and I quote, "impossible".
"When you build it as one thing, there's no way to portion off a section and have it stand on its own without putting the whole game in the demo, which we're just not going to do," said Hines.

"And it doesn't really capture the fun of a game like an Elder Scrolls or a Fallout, where you can go where you want and do what you want. So no demo, sorry."
Yeah, about that, I'm pretty sure Fallout 1 had a demo, and that it worked perfectly well in giving a good idea of what the game was.
