Intel Demo Competition 2008 : The Real Deal Is In!
Well well well, I was notified this morning by Optimus [thank you!] that the actual entries for the IDC 2008 are finally released and ready to be voted for. And I have to say, oh boy, aren't they awesome! I mean I started with the Cocoon demo and the music caught me right away, and of course the graphics were nothing short of marvellous. Then the Firlight & TBL demo with those cute little buttons [dude, I want some of those! =)] and the scary dissolving faces gave me round eyes. Next was the MFX demo and it's cool style, I specially liked the beginning of this one. Then came the Inque demo with again fantastic music, and all the orange juice. I mean they even have ASD labeled orange juice. ;) Last but certainly not least was the beautiful beautiful Still demo. The music is just otherworldly, and the visuals, oh, the visuals... no words, I'm speechless. As I mentioned before, Still always has a way of making me happy. =)So, big Kudos to all the competing teams, and now it's time for you all to go and see the demos for yourselves. You can either watch the demos on the IDC website, or download the real-times here. Enjoy. And, well, wish me luck too as I have a competition of my own to face, tomorrow. =)

You favorite is also my favorite. :)

Awesome demos, worth waiting for. No clue who to vote for.
btw best of luck tomorrow. :)
I love the music from the still demo. It's all I am listening these days.
I don't know which demo I like the most. Maybe the Still demo because of the music and atmosphere. The FLT&TBL demo has as always amazing art, design and effects but something lacks, like some parts are connected without a plan. But it's still a very good demo. I liked the MFX quite much, those bumpy surfaces with the grotesque alien feeling, the blury view, the abstract think MFX use to do, this one is one of my favorites. The other two demos are more like flybyes 3d scenes without much effect, Cocoon demo having at least some quite good 3d and textures.
My personal favorites:
Still > MFX> FLT&TBL > Cocoon > Inque
