From PS3Fanboy:
The guys at Plastic are a charitable bunch -- they have made the soundtrack to their demoscene Linger in Shadows a free download on their website. The ZIP file even includes an additional track from their other demoscene, Into the Pink. Visit their website here and click on the soundtrack link in the middle of the page to download the file.
Wojciech Golczewski is the Polish composer responsible for the atmospheric soundtrack.
BeefJack: "Personally, I think taking the game out of games has limited long-term appeal within our medium, although some are certainly immersive. As we explore more ways to interact with our games, we’re also finding more ways we can tell stories through game systems, and that can only be a good thing.
But gamers aren’t the only group of people to exist, and virtual worlds you can explore, infused with story and meaning, could still have a very important purpose. Art games are not the future of videogames. But they might just be the future of art."
Linger in shadows was really interesting, not sure what to call it, but I certainly enjoyed it.
As a game and an artist, it makes me very excited to see independent developers to gain success through an artistically beautiful game with innovative elements of gameplay. Linger in Shadows and Flower are great examples. In all honesty, I never particularly enjoyed "playing" either of those two games but I LOVED watching them. They truly are Art.
The Dutch website PSFocus.nl has written an article about Sony and there interactive videos: Linger in Shadows and Behind the Bullet. Besides from describing these interactive videos, PSFocus also brings up the point if this is the future or not.
I enjoyed both interactive videos. Sony is the only console that brings these pieces of interactive art on the marktet. The small price I had to pay for Linger in Shadows was well worth it and Behind the Bullet is for free.
Thanks for the article! I enjoyed it.
The PSN-exclusives Flower and Noby Noby Boy both take the top spots in February. These innovative games take gaming in new directions, and we're glad to see gamers have embraced them.
1. Flower
2. Noby Noby Boy
3. Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix

7. Bejeweled 2
8. Burnout Paradise
9. Linger in Shadows
10. Magic Ball
i've only played flower and it was awesome especially after an intense session of Killzone2. will definately give some other PSN games a go.
hmmm surprised MK2 is still going. I wish they could have made the game playable on psp
but on topic good to see burnout paradise still on the list and mk 2 still getting love
nobody has heard of it in the UK though and they seemed to have stopped showing it(used to be on the lesser watched channels). Shame because I love the program.
I wonder what the numbers are actually like; is it in the thousands (very likily), tens of thousands, or is spot number ten in the hundreds.
With sharing up to 5 different PS3s, how did that affect the sales, so on so forth
This download is awesome, perfect for Warhawk and Burnout!
Linger in Shadows Rules!
Incredible music.
i'll get it..
but this is where microsoft is just at times slightly smarter than sony...
sony should have made this available to ps3 owners via the psn store...
is it a huge advantage? nope
is it a deal breaker or new customers? nope
but it builds interest and satisfies current fans of the linger in shadows fans and shows plastic they are interested in them.. its good business relations
