Game and demo run differently on my 6800 GT OC

[atlwriter]

I'm a big fan of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay. The highest setting I could play it smoothly on my system was 1280x1024. When I installed the new Riddick demo, it ran perfectly at 1920x1200. Any ideas why there's such a difference?

demos sometimes tone everything down to decrease file size.

curious...why play the demo anyway if you have the full game?

I just wanted to see what levels were included in the demo.

That makes sense.
