This is what appears to be the original installer of the Zombie Wars Demo:

Apparently, the demo scenario of CyberMage: Darklight Awakening is not included in the full version, as it was made specifically to showcase the game's features.

Not exactly extra content, but here's an official public beta demo of William Shatner's TekWar, found on PC Gamer Magazine Cover Disk #12 (hosted at cd.textfiles.com):

From MANUAL.TXT:

This is a beta Demo of TekWar the Game. As with any beta, there are
bound to be a few problems as the game is still not finished. Before you
get started there are a few things you need to know. Although the
graphics in TEKWAR are stunning, unless you have a high end machine,
we recommend playing in 320 x 200 mode.

In addition to just being an early build of the game, there are several Smacker videos not found in the regular demo version.

There was a special demo version of Dark Colony, with a unique mission apparently made specially for the PC Format magazine. The demo has apparently also contained a unique modification of one of the existing tilesets, altough that is conjecture on my part.

Hmm, I've found a large demo of Dark Colony recently at cd.textfiles.com, on a Polish gaming magazine cover CD, but I haven't checked it out yet. Here's the link:

Nope, not that one. It does seem to be distinct from the missions on the Dark Colony campaign, though...

[MrFlibble]

Well, I didn't think it would be that easy... TBH, I've never played the full game myself, only the small demo I got from C|NET Downloads, so I don't know the differences.

The demo contains a unique mission that had been specifically designed for demonstration and is not found in the full version to the game.

Recently I've stumbled upon a pre-release demo version of Warcraft: Orcs & Humans. The date stamp on the installation files (October 4th, 1994) places it about a month before the game's final release. WHile the levels are largely the same, the demo has a few notable differences, including different speech clips for Human units, a static image of the map in the briefing, and different graphics for the Human Barracks:

Just found this interesting video:
http://youtu.be/bCLPrnrUQtM

It appears to be an enhanced version of the Warcraft II shareware (most probably distributed on a CD) with mission briefing voice-overs, fully animated intro sequence and CD audio music. The main menu screen (visible at 02:07) identifies this version as WARCRAFT 2 SHAREWARE v1.08sh.

Two other versions of the Warcraft II shareware - WARCRAFT 2 DEMO BETA v1.02elc and WARCRAFT 2 DEMO v1.20elc (both can be found here) - only have MIDI music, a static slideshow version of the intro, and no briefing voice-overs.

[Edit] Found a download at a German website:
http://www.warcraft-akademie.de/warc...90177f850fab8a

It's not an ISO though, just the files in a folder, so I'm not sure if the high-quality music audible in the video is actually included.
