Well, it's better than a demo! EA has gone nuts and is letting you play Titfanfall free for 48 hours via their Origin platform. That's not 48 hours in the world, either, that's 48 hours of pure game time.
Titanfall Update 3 Hits All Platforms
This is part of EA's new Origin Game Time initiative, a plan that works somewhat like Sony does with PS Plus and their timed game trials ,although it's a lot longer than an hour. If you sign up you'll be able to play Origin games for free as long as there's time left on your Game Time clock. This is only the first title in the initiative and so perhaps they're giving more time than they will in the future, because you're able to download Titanfall for free and play it for 48 hours. That's 48 hours in real-time, from the minute you start to the minute you stop. Don't leave the game idle or you'll run out your minutes, although 48 hours should really allow you to fully experience the game.
That's the full version of the game too, and any progress you earn you can carry over after the trial ends. It's pretty much a win-win situation here- you can dive into the game and check out one of the most acclaimed recent titles for free, and if you get as addicted as EA hopes you will, you'll want to continue, possibly picking up the DLC as you do.
