God of War: Chains of Olympus - Special Edition Demo Disc

benjiedude  |  October 2nd, 2007 at 2:22 pm

Wow. Take an anger management class or something man. They’re just games in the end. I was just hoping for some kind of answer.

OPPinoy  |  October 2nd, 2007 at 8:36 pm

I’m signed up to receive this demo, and am eagerly anticipating its arrival. I was just wondering if the included level(s) are final (locked in stone) versions that will be in the game, as they are in the demo, or are the included levels still up for tweaks before they are put into the final game. And tell your carrier harpies to hurry up because it seems like 10 years since I signed up for it and dug through the islands website for bits of info.

benjiedude  |  October 3rd, 2007 at 8:12 am

Oct.3rd and no demo….

lakaihigh  |  October 3rd, 2007 at 12:28 pm

yeah just checked my mailbox and still no demo my life is so sad…

SincereRawkus  |  October 3rd, 2007 at 12:52 pm

Man I moved since I signed up for the Demo and I was not sure if I was gonna get one. Will the demo be sent to the address on your GAP or Regular account? Thanks

benjiedude  |  October 3rd, 2007 at 1:07 pm

Yes it will. This however means nothing because nobody has actually received the demo besides the press yet. Sooo sad.

PS3_GAM3R  |  October 3rd, 2007 at 7:12 pm

Where the F**K is my DEMO?!?! Did they ship the DEMO from MARS or something? because it usually takes 2-3 business days!!! I will really get pissed if I don’t get it by this Saturday!

lakaihigh  |  October 3rd, 2007 at 7:46 pm

Here’s to hoping I get it tomorrow (finger’s crossed, prays to god) wait why would I pray to god… I should pray to the God of War hahaha hmm. corny joke of the day, had to do it to lighten the tension of all these die hard GoW fans on here.

Peace,

OPPinoy  |  October 3rd, 2007 at 11:32 pm

I saw my mailman playing a PSP yesterday, she better not steal my demo. Grrrr…

ams707  |  October 4th, 2007 at 1:50 am

Seriously….ANYONE GET THEIRS YET??? 6 days in transit shipping, still not unheard of…. still have thursday/friday/saturday before I really start freakin out.

ARE THEY COMING VIA CARRIER PIGIONS AGAIN??? Media mail aint this slow. 1st class definitly isnt, No one form the angry mob with fire and pitchforks…til monday. Ill bring rice crispy treats, you bring the flamethrower.

benjiedude  |  October 4th, 2007 at 10:11 am

I’m thinking my mailman stole it too.

lakaihigh  |  October 4th, 2007 at 1:57 pm

@ EVERYONE who thinks their mailman stole their demo - is it remotely possible that every single mailman stole everyone’s demo disc? LOL There has to be some kind of conspiracy going on at the post office because I haven’t seen mine either! This is sheer madness… I can’t wait any longer to get my demo (if I’m even getting one) Will some1 that got theirs please tell us because all of us here are slowly slipping into madness waiting at our mailboxes. Please let it come tomorrow or saturday. PLEASE. hahaha

Hope,
Lh

OPPinoy  |  October 4th, 2007 at 2:19 pm

I’m not saying that mailmen(women), across the country, are all dishonest, but you have to admit that the cover art of the demo sleeve does look ultra amazing. I wish they could’ve camoflauged it a little bit, or maybe even have given it a decoy cover art of another inferior game, like pokemon tactics or something like that. If I was a mailman and saw that cover art on the demo UMD sleeve, I might be tempted also.

lakaihigh  |  October 4th, 2007 at 2:23 pm

@ OPPinoy - I hear you dude, I know what you mean. If I was a mailman or woman I would have snatched that thing up soooo fast because of the sheer awesomeness. Its just that I want my demo now sooo bad. I guess we’ll have to sit tight for a lil while longer til they get here.

Peace,
Lh

PS3_GAM3R  |  October 4th, 2007 at 11:22 pm

It’s Thrusday, and still no Demo..Sony where they F**K is my DEMO??????

benjiedude  |  October 5th, 2007 at 6:39 am

Oct. 5th and no demo. That’s it, all the mailmen and mailwomen across the nation have stole this thing.

benjiedude  |  October 5th, 2007 at 10:19 am

Officially not today either. Mailman just delivered my stuff w/ no demo. At least I’ll be getting one in California when I go there.

RoAcH2285  |  October 5th, 2007 at 5:18 pm

Yep’ still waitin’ myself.I check the mail everyday….for disappointment.

PS3_GAM3R  |  October 5th, 2007 at 6:48 pm

If this Demo does not come tomarrow then Sony lied to us again…good job Sony for becoming the company that lies to consumers!!!

lakaihigh  |  October 5th, 2007 at 7:29 pm

ahhhhhh… I’m losing my mind. I can’t wait any longer for this demo. It is literally eating me from the inside out. I’ve never felt like something is sooo close yet so far away. hey isn’t that a song LOL. oh well, if this demo doesn’t come tomorrow then I’m convinced that there is some kind of conspiracy going on here. I sense traitors in our midst… all mailmen and women across the nation are withholding the power that can come to our psps!!! NO!!!!!!!!!

Seriously please let it come tomorrow.

Peace,
Lh

lakaihigh  |  October 5th, 2007 at 11:28 pm

@ EVERYONE - Update!!! did anyone else here get this email??? http://tr.innovyx.net/v?xJlJnlHEHWHvvnlHHTcP it was in response to them sending out the demo disc and he said that this was the last behind the scenes look and it was an article about the music soundtrack to the game… really cool stuff. But yeah has anyone seen this?

Your Welcome,
Lh

benjiedude  |  October 6th, 2007 at 5:20 am

October 6th and no demo. Yea, I got the e-mail. Sounds like they’re just trying to keep the crowd from rioting. Nobody has officially received this demo yet, only people claiming to without posting proof so it’s possible some have got it but again nothing proven. I don’t care about a sound clip, I want my demo. For the love of Zues…gimme my demo.

OPPinoy  |  October 6th, 2007 at 1:53 pm

I expect to have it on Tuesday. With Monday being a Federal holiday, it should give the post office enough time to get the mail to where it needs to go. They still work on federal holidays, they just don’t deliver the mail on holidays.

kenji  |  October 6th, 2007 at 2:33 pm

This might be a little too late but why isn’t this demo made available for download? Wouldn’t it reach more people and get Sony more praise if they stepped it up on this digital download initiative more appropriately?

OPPinoy  |  October 6th, 2007 at 3:52 pm

@kenji: They aren’t making it available for download, immediately, to reward those of us who dug through the islands website to actually find out how to sign up for the demo. The special coverart and umd is a reward for us. I’m sure there will be a downloadable download available, in a month or two, on the PSP website on playstation.com.

benjiedude  |  October 6th, 2007 at 5:31 pm

Rumored downloadable later without the bells and whistles. Hopefully Tuesday but I’m not getting my hopes up. This is really starting to suck!

kenji  |  October 7th, 2007 at 4:42 am

I’m still waiting for my disc to show up, but I don’t think now is the time to keep people from seeing what the PSP can do. They should be putting the demo out there for anyone who has a PSP. I know some people who no longer buy PSP games and seeing this running on their PSP would probably make them start looking at it again. I hope I get my demo by Tuesday.

ams707  |  October 8th, 2007 at 5:04 am

Well according to this really hot MAILMAN ive beeen sleeping it, if they sent it MEDIA MAil it could be up to 14 days before they are in our hands. its exemelty cheap to send it outt that way, but they dont ship it out until tthe truck is filled, meaning it can sit on a truck, or even a dock until its full, so, i have a sneaking feeling thats what it is.PATEINCE IS A VIRTUE. bla bla bla

P.s. MONDAY IS A POSTAL HOLIDAY>save your [DELETED] til tuesday

benjiedude  |  October 8th, 2007 at 5:42 am

Waiting through Columbus day for my demo. AAAARGGHHHHH!

ams707  |  October 8th, 2007 at 6:37 am

-according to my mailman insider source,If they shipped it MEDIA MAIL IT could could TAKE UP TO 14 DAYS TO RECIEVE. so hang tight.

(ps SONY nice censor of my last msg lolol)

zookey  |  October 8th, 2007 at 10:45 am

Thank goodness LMAO I thought I was the only one without a demo disc hehe! I thought maybe their computer glitched or I gave them the wrong addy—oh well Tuesday (hopefully) then!

benjiedude  |  October 8th, 2007 at 2:25 pm

Is that 14 business days or just fourteen days?

RoAcH2285  |  October 8th, 2007 at 4:43 pm

Its always business days.

benjiedude  |  October 8th, 2007 at 4:49 pm

No it isn’t otherwise they would’ve said that. Have a good day.

OPPinoy  |  October 9th, 2007 at 3:02 am

They didn’t send it by “media mail”, whatever that is. They just send it by regular mail in umd sleeves that have one side as the coverart and the other as the mail part. This time tomorrow, no one will be posting because we will all be playing it, other than those unlucky ones who didn’t sign up. Sucks to be you. LOL

benjiedude  |  October 9th, 2007 at 5:40 am

I hope you’re right Oppi but the arrogant tone of your post doesn’t please the gods and may bring bad fortune to us all….

benjiedude  |  October 9th, 2007 at 2:08 pm

October 9th, mailman come and went. NO DEMO YET. Gee, it sure is nice that they told us we’d be getting them in September.

ams707  |  October 10th, 2007 at 3:35 am

benjiedude, your a bit high strung, but we love ya, yes, it is business days. and there is NO way sending it regular mail that it would have taken this long.

benjiedude  |  October 10th, 2007 at 11:13 am

October 10th and my mailman has come and gone. No demo. Why advertise a demo that doesn’t seem to exist?

lakaihigh  |  October 10th, 2007 at 12:39 pm

This is pure insanity… I want to play my GoW demo now… alas I will remain patient and strong. But seriously when is it getting here? Daunting thought just came to my mind… maybe I’m not gettin one at ALL!!!! YIKES!

peace and hope,
Lh

Cyberia  |  October 10th, 2007 at 4:00 pm

Yo Cory!

Can we also expect a demo in Europe?

benjiedude  |  October 11th, 2007 at 6:30 am

I sure hope Cory is reading this thread still but I doubt it. Cory where’s the demo?

JJShadow  |  October 11th, 2007 at 10:43 am

Yes, this all about the delivering of the demo is very strange… Cory, can you says us what’s the problem with the shipping of the demo?

lakaihigh  |  October 11th, 2007 at 1:35 pm

October 11th 2007:

Dear diary,

Today I was expecting my God of War: Chains of Olympus demo to arrive in the mailbox. When I got to the mailbox it looked full (as usual) so I quickly grabbed up all the mail and went inside. I slowly shuffled through the mail to build the anxiety but again to my dismay I found no demo. Diary, do you think that the mailman stole my demo? hahaha you are sooo funny! I know that’s impossible. But then where could it be?

@ Cory - that last question is directed towards you buddy. You got some splainin to do! lol. but seriously where are these things at? Any info would be much appreciated.

Goodnight Diary hahahaha

Peace,
Lh

ValTronZero  |  October 12th, 2007 at 1:24 pm

This is kinda funny! Until I found this thread i was starting to suspect MY mail man! I was STARTiNG to feel better that im not the only one missing their demo, BUT this just means we’re ALL getting getting screwed somehow.
If anyone gets theirs please drop us a line to let us know!
WHATS THE DEAL BARLOG?!?!
THX!

lakaihigh  |  October 12th, 2007 at 8:27 pm

“All I know is that this is GAY. gay gay gay gay gay!” J/K. Where’s my demo?

Peace,
Lh

KhSam3  |  October 12th, 2007 at 9:05 pm

Hey…uh…Cory…is everyone, who signed up for the demo, gonna get it?

OPPinoy  |  October 13th, 2007 at 12:41 am

The demo is pretty awesome, especially the new “tear apart” grab kill.

lakaihigh  |  October 14th, 2007 at 10:54 am

@ OPPinoy - hold on a sec. Are you saying that you got the demo???? when? how? why? more importantly why not me??? lol. seriously though. You got it?

Peace,
Lh

orbio234  |  October 14th, 2007 at 3:56 pm
