Download services:Tried and Rated!

When you feel like downloading some videos or game demos, where to you go to download them? In this article, 4 of the websites offering download services are listed, tried and rated! *Please note: This article means no offence to anyone or anything.

FilePlanet @ www.fileplanet.com
Subscirption is needed to access most of the more popular files and what's more, a software known as 'Download Manager' needs to be downloaded and installed first before you can get your hands on the files on this website. Very troublesome, but FilePlant has got a wide variety of content. Subscribe? Read on before making your decision.

IGN.COM @ www.ign.com
IGN and FilePlanet share the same subscription, so if you have subscribed to FilePlanet, then you are also a subscriber to IGN. If you are a subscriber, what you will be getting is bigger, higher quality videos with high resolution. If you are a non-subscriber, then what you will be getting is smaller, lower quality videos with low resolution. So, this is the thing: Play first before you get the good stuff, but IGN has got some irresistable exclusives. Worth a look around.

Gamespot @ www.gamespot.com
Gamespot's download service is very similar to IGN's. If you are a subscriber, good for you, but if you are not, then that is just too bad. However, of you take a more careful look at Gamespot's homepage, you will notice that there are some videos playing on the right hand side. Wow, instant videos! Very useful for those in the hurry and do not want to waste time downloading files.

FileCloud @ www.filecloud.com
This must be the best offering I have encountered. Almost everything, from game demos to videos to game patches, is available. Although FileCloud claims faster download speeds and that there is no need to queue for files if you are a subscriber, a 'non-subscriber' status is good enough. You rarely need to queue for a file, and even if you have to, it is just for a few minutes. Download speeds are reasonable. The best part? Video quality is not sarcrificed for non-subscribers. Great! Highly recommended.
