There's just no better way to test multiplayer code than to release a demo to the public and see what bugs crop up. The fact that the demo helps give the game publicity is really just a nice side effect -- they're probably primarily interested in working the kinks out of the multiplayer system.

I duly downloaded said game, and have since become quite addicted. Something it has over other Tron type games I've tried (eg GlTron) is that the closter you get to a wall, the faster you go. This makes for some interesting strategy, and unless Tron 2.0 has something similar, it's not going to replace Armagetron for me.

I also logged in to the disc tournaments with a bunch of people in Minessota I think, and although the visuals are amusing, I didn't find them particularly good.
