  • WE want demos on PSN!!!!

  • 51 – They didnt know…

  • I hope u guys are saving a lot of game announcements for the Tokyo Game Show

    @thechosenfew88
    It would be nice if they dropped the 60gig to $399 before the end of the year so it would be a nice christmas present.

    @pico21
    I was about to say that

  • 10 bucks for the first person who tells me how many times the word Demos appeared in this Blog

    :D

  • Blizzard,

    The word Demo has now appeared at least 3 more times than before my comment.

    I WANT DEMOS, DEMOESSS

    See?

  • I think that just shows how much people really want a demo.

    On a different note:
    For the avatars, do you just need to sign up with the same email that you use for this blog? Or is there something more…

  • DEMOS

    ME WANT DEMOS.

  • I hope you guys are bringing more demos to the PSN because all I hear nowadays is that XBL gets demos of multiplatform games when we don’t get anything.

  • @all the whiners wanting demos….
    Nucleus just came out today and it has a demo.
    aren’t we getting a Heavenly Sword demo in a few weeks too?

  • DEMOS! We were promised Lair! That comes out like next month! Come on at least one demo from E3!

  • I can’t wait for Echochrome to be released.

  • Sony PS2 needs to be retired this is hard for me to say but i think that it need to be reitred to allow the PS3 to be the system of choice. Maybe you could make the PS3 $399.99 and advertise that all the PS2 titles will be playable on the PS3. If you drop the price of the PS2 more casual gamers will buy it and not the PS3. I know this sounds crazy but after that powerful E3 conference i really believe that the PS3 should be fully backed and the PS2 retired. You have gotten the world excited but casual gamers will always be in the majority and the PS3 does a great job at catering to everybody. If anyone wants to discuss this i am all ears. This was just a suggestion.

    P.S. PS2 killed Saturn, Dreamcast, and Xbox. It might casue problems for the PS3.

  • @lightweaponx
    who promised? :-/

  • Already had Nucleus :P

    A demo from E3 would be nice.

  • Give me a e3 demo plz, i dont say nothing about any bug, but release some important!!!

  • These aren’t nearly the best screenshots of each title. The Gran Turismo shot is an extremely poor choice – look at the shading on that car hood. There are so many more shots that are better than these in this selection.. a little more work please, Patrick!

  • No offense to Nucleus as I haven’t played it yet, but it this it? Where’s the Heavenly Sword demo that was “in the very near future”? Where’s NCAA 2008 demo Live has had up for awhile now?

    Xbox Live got NCAA 2008, Blue Dragon, and Ace Combat 6 demos this week alone. Blue Dragon isn’t out until August, and Ace combat 6 is out in OCTOBER.

    Get this right Sony. I’ve been a supporter of PSN for awhile, knowing you’re behind on Live by a long time, but this is getting stupid. Get it together. PSN is a joke in the fanbase right now. =(

  • We want E3 Demos on PSN Store!!!

  • only a nucleus demo?…..come on……playstation store needs to be all that….all i see are a lot of trailers….although they look nice but they don’t last long

  • @Darsh
    right…PSN is a joke. that’s why they had videos of all the E3 titles up on the Store right after the press conference.
    yeah, we all want demos, but some of us know how to be a little more patience instead of crying like little babies when you don’t get what you want immediately.

  • How soon is “very soon”.

  • Kratos_ate_Snake

    @ 59 & 63, Solance
    nucleus demo has been out in the jap. psn since last week, and it is not even that great. The actual game is alright though, if you have not had enough arcade shooters.
    Maybe we were not “promised” a demo, but they did say we will get one.

    @ SONY

    are you reading our comments? so far almost 30 of them are about “were are the demos?”
    I counted the words demo (using ctrl+f) almost 50 times.

    Back when all I had was my ps2 I did not care about demos because you had to go out and buy them, or it came in a magazine. But with the inclusion of the PS store, knowing that now we have the capability of having a demo for every game out there, and downloading them straight to our hard rive, I can’t help but to be pissed seeing how weeks go by and all we get is a lame gundam demo. I won’t even compare PSN to the 360, because what’s the point.

    I don’t know, I have so much to say, but I feel like I am waisting my time posting comments that probably just get ignored.

    All I can say to everyone is, not to go silent on this, and even though SONY deserves much appreciation for their awesome showing at E3, always ask about demos because I don’t know about all you guys but demos are very important to me.

    One comment can be ignored, but not all of them.

  • Sony you had such a good E3 why not give us a good PSN update that isn’t trailers? :(

  • @people asking for demos

    GO TO THE DEVELOPERS SITES AND ASK THEM FOR THE DEMOS!!!

    SONY HAS STATED SEVERAL TIMES THAT DEMOS ARE NOT IN THEIR HANDS, BUT IN THE HANDS OF THE DEVELOPERS, WHO ARE CHOOSING TO DO 360 DEMOS BECAUSE THEY ARE CHEAPER TO MAKE!!! REMEMBER THAT CHEAPER ISNT ALWAYS BETTER, BUT IT IS FASTER & EASIER!!!!

    STOP ASKING THEM FOR THE DEMOS, THEY DONT MAKE THE GAMES, THEY JUST PUBLISH THEM! AND THEY ARE GONNA PUT A TON OF PRESSURE ON THE DEVELOPERS TO PUMP OUT DEMOS FOR US BECAUSE IT WOULD HINDER THE GAMES DEVELOPMENT PROCESS!!!!

  • Yeah, I’m sure the devs that are exclusive to Sony are making those demos for the 360.

    -_-

  • Nice set of screenshots, LittleBigPlanet, Uncharted, Heavenly Sword, Hot Shots Golf 5, Wipeout, Killzone 2, Lair, Eye of Judgement, Gran Turismo 5 and Warhawk all command my attention. Can’t wait for these games. Is there any word on whether a demo or two will hit the PSN later today or tomorrow, or perhaps after E3?

    I think you’d make a lot of people happy if you managed a demo or two.

  • @ Solace

    I’m happy about the trailers, but I’m not overly impressed. It was great to see them in HD of course, but the competition is doing the same thing, so it should be expected. Now the competition is whooping PSN’s ass in demos and content as well. Now I can’t say anything about it?

    Where the heck is all of the classic PSOne games for download? There’s TONS! There’s enough there to compete with Wii’s Virtual Console! We’ve gotten like 10 PS One games on PSN to buy in the US since LAUNCH. Why is it “whining” to call Sony out to task for this? I want to give them money, they won’t let me. So I have to give it to someone else.

    I truly hate to enter the sales territory, but Sony is losing and this certainly isn’t helping. There needs to be content up week in and week out, every single week from Sony and 3rd party partners. How can one service get demos and the other one doesn’t when the same game is on both systems?

    It makes no sense, and Sony’s work is far from done. I want to give you money. Get to work please. =(

  • I’m gonna be broke this fall with all these great games coming out. Oh and sony start puting up some demos. The videos were great and all, but I can see those on the web. And I know it’s not just me, we all want demos. Demos=GREAT! Oh and good job on the press confrence, it was by far the best out of the big three.

  • Kratos_ate_Snake

    @ 74

    We understand that, but it is not like they have no saying in third party demos, they could ask, and no it is not a ton of pressure. And don’t forget about first party, we should have a demo for all of their first party games.

  • @kratos_ate_snake
    well then that’s your fault for going to the jap. store then and not having anything new. do you open your presents early and then complain christmas morning that you don’t have any gifts?

    besides, demos take time to make, people. developers can’t just magically poop one out whenever we want. yeah, they’re making them for E3, but that’s a trade show for a specific audience: the press and retailers, not us gamers. if it was, then it’d be open to the public.

    your advice is to “not to go silent on this”, so instead, you’re advocating everyone continuing to btich and moan about demos? don’t you remember what happened as a kid when you bugged your parents non-stop? i don’t know how you were raised, but mine raised me right to be polite and have a little patience. i know i’m getting tired of all the complaining, and i’m someone who wants demos too!

    we just got a ton of new videos and we’re getting Heavenly Sword “soon”. why don’t all you complainers learn to count to ten and calm the eff down. go find the hidden videos on the playstation store if you’re that bored.

  • CitizenInsane27

    Hey Sony makes games too. ;) These guys are PR and were asking, don’t tell me they can’t contact someone and say “Hey they want demos”. It is one of the points of this blog. ;-)

  • NOOOOOOO

    The Store has just been updated, with NOOOOOOO press briefing :( Make it happen Sony!

  • Kratos_ate_Snake

    Solace, what is your problem,

    “…everyone continuing to [DELETED] and moan about demos?”

    “why don’t all you complainers learn to count to ten and calm the eff down. ”

    You are talking about being polite, and you are calling everyone [DELETED] whiners? Apparently you do not care about games as much as we do.

  • @stoffinator
    which would you rather have:
    a) a developer take a few weeks out of their dev cycle to put a demo together or
    b) use that time to put extra polish on a game.

    if you chose “a”, well then you obviously don’t have a fundamental understanding of how games are made. it’d be like going to the movies, enjoying a movie, and then complaining that its sequel wasn’t being made fast enough. things don’t happen overnight. i wish more people other than CI27 and myself understood this.

    oh, and “all the demos on XBL” (all three of them) are for crappy games i wouldn’t even waste my download bandwidth to download. quality over quantity, IMO.

  • This E3 has been a success for Sony…

    Love the new announcements…

    But please address the game demo situation…We’re dying to see some additions to the PS Store..

    The other console got the Ace Combat 6 demo :( Ace Combat being once a Playstation exclusive :( :( (and my fave game series ever)

    Hook us up with Heavenly Sword Demo tomorrow.. :)

  • Kratos_ate_Snake

    Solace, what is your problem,

    “…everyone continuing to btich and moan about demos?”

    “why don’t all you complainers learn to count to ten and calm the eff down. ”

    You are talking about being polite, and you are calling everyone btichy whiners? Apparently you do not care about games as much as we do.

  • Kratos_ate_Snake

    All I ask for is a heavenly sword demo very very soon, like today soon.

  • Thanks for all of the E3 PS Store goods. I know I really enjoyed watching every single one of those trailers on my HDTV!

  • @K_A_S
    my problem is i come here to read about playstation news and games and get a “behind the screen” kinda look into playstation – not to read 50,000 comments all [DELETED] about “we want teh dmeos”.
    they said that they know we want demos.
    what good is it to keep on-and-on-and-on singing the same song? seriously…

  • Sony abliterated MS on the floor but online Microsoft is winning, gr8 coverage of E3 and 3 new demo’s of games that are out in Aug/Sep and Oct…..get your act together, trailers are avaliable online and can be streamed thanks to the FM update via nero, nice but a waist of bandwidth.
    What about the EYE???? No info whatsoever, cancelled, delayed??? And Singstar Microphones???? Wireless??? Bluetooth??? Also delayed????

    We want info, oh yeah, and

    DEMO’S

  • @K_A_S
    my problem is all the constant complaining. i’m sick of coming here and reading 50,000 comments all saying the same thing. it’s ridiculous.
    they know we want demos and they’re coming in.
    rome wasn’t built in a day. i have patience for the content, but not for the childish whining.

  • Has the rumble controller been announced yet? Has anyone seen a Warhawk headset?

  • @83

    Calling those games crappy really exposes your agenda here.

    Yes, when you were a child, you got smacked around for whining. What does that have to do with anything here? Is Sony going to come and smack me? I’m trying to give them my money here. They won’t let me. I’m trying to be their consumer. They won’t let me. I want support for their product. In terms of PSN (and this is strictly PSN, their 1st party games look AMAZING) they are dropping the ball.

  • Rome has builded on 3 days! Seriously, demos demos demos!

  • Right, so where are the E3 demos? Perhaps we could have a few that aren’t on Xbox live right now.

    Yeah I said it. I want a demo. I deserve it. I can go anywhere on the internet to watch the free E3 trailers, but if I try to do that in my PS3 browser, it all falls apart… how sad is that?

  • @dbarrade
    the rumble is still in Rumourland…for now.
    ebgames has a picture of the Warhawk bundlethough with a bluetooth headset. i don’t know if that’s an official one, or just something they put together, but go to their web site and do a search for it to see it.

  • I will be happy only with little big planet demo…

  • Hey im from ireland and was wondering if anybody knows when sony are gonna announce the price drop for Europe??? They said it was supposed to be today but I havent heard anything! Does anyone know???

  • @91 Darsh
    right – because they really make money from you “giving your money” to them when the demo’s FREE. give me a break.

    there are those that get it, and those that don’t. the sooner you realize your complaining won’t bring you demos any faster, the better for everyone.

    …just like the sooner i stop responding to stupid comments, the less frustrated i’ll be with stupid people who just don’t get it.

  • Kratos_ate_Snake

    LOL at 92

    OK Solace, I guess you are right.

    80+ comments about demos is enough.

    BTW, I agree with you about the PSP comment you made on the last post. More features = higher price = more people complaining.

    Wow is that a stranglehold demo…? Dam its just a new trailer.
