Huge update, great week.

[Sev]

Yeah, really. I'm looking forward to PvZ. This is also a nice incentive to sign up to PlayStation Plus. On top of the Killzone 3 demo, I hear Stacking is free for subscribers.

[DaTruth]

Heard anything about the TG16 games! I hardly care about anything else but it seems to have disappeared without a trace!

Edit: ♠ <- my daughter did this and I don't know how! Sometimes she gets a hold of my keyboard and it takes me hours to fix what she does!

[MidnytRain]

What sense does an exclusive demo make? Isn't demo short for demonstration? As in the gameplay and fun factor are meant to be demonstrated to me, thus convincing me to buy the product? This could cause KZ3 to sell a bit less than it could. Most likely, the PlayStation Plus subscribers are like us; well-informed of the game industry, so they are probably going to buy the game anyway. There are also people out there who have little to no interest in multiplayer, so the beta may not have cut it for them. I'm thinking this is just a way for Sony to please the people who payed for PlayStation Plus. As of now, I am set on buying LittleBigPlanet 2 this weekend instead of waiting for KZ3. The demo might have changed my mind, though.

[AKA]

its for hype, plus member fell special that they got to try the demo ''first'' and fall more in love and give priorities to the game and buy it day one.
SONY should have make this demo open starting this tusday to kill the fake bad reviews the game is getting, if the demo is from the e3 demo levels everyone will love the game, its really that great.

[GarandShooter]

Sev, any new info on the Dragon Age 2 demo?

[Taggart451]

Gotta tell you, I am SUPER pumped for Stacking and Explodemon!

[BigWoopMagazine]

ditto on that. About a Blob looks really fun too.

[despair]

the demo was decent, I have to play more before knowing for sure but it has potential, reminds me a little of The Maw(awesome game)

[DrRichtofen]

damn I wish I had playstation plus

[Rage_S90]

i wish they release xenogears......

[VenomProject]

Killzone 3 demo and Stacking. Yes, please.

[Neo Nugget]

Stacking for free? I love you, Playstation Plus ^_^

[Dart89]

Will non ps plus also get the KZ3 demo later??

[-Alpha]

Nothing seems to indicate that. I think they should if they want to cater to the wider audience that likely aren't Plus subscribers to begin with.

As for now it's PS+ only

[Chug]

February 15th for non PS+

[despair]

check rumoured page, it shows Feb 15th for the demo, like Chug said.

[DFresh]

That sucks.
-__-

[-Alpha]

I think I'll get Harvest Moon. That series is awesome

[Mr Tretton]

KZ3 demo, PS plus only? Kind of stupid. The point of a demo is to get it out there for everyone to try so they'll buy the game. They are treating it like a treat however.

I hope this doesn't happen with other games. I'm not subscribing to something I don't need for demos. What is this, Xbox Live?

[Redempteur]

the point of PSN + is to get demos early too ( on top of discouts , free games, free trials and extra goodies ).

not stupid , perfectly logical

[despair]

yea but I understand things like betas but early demos don't make sense, why force normal users to wait a week before giving them the very same thing. That's what I don't like about MS XBL fee, it actually hurts its members who do not pay rather than just reward those who do.

A demo is a demo and if you can give PS+ it a week early then everyone can get it a week early(or rather the same time). I love my PS+ membership so far but I hope they don't make this a habit as demos are the least of the benefits offered by PS+ and should not be timed exclusive at all.

[DaTruth]

Are they getting early demos? Or are we just getting late demos, so they can feel like they're paying for something?

This is akin to MS timed exclusives which is really just MS paying to deprive gamers who own other systems!

[AKA]

shhh mr T, your customers will not fell special if they dont get early access to a demo.
thrust in you marketing team...

[Mr Tretton]

My team is not known for great marketing abilities. ;)

[Knightofelemia]

I wish Sony would bring over Xenogears wich has been comfirmed, I also would like Legend of Dragoon, Lunar, and Chrono Trigger brought to the PS1 classics. The line up for the PSN store is great to see

[gorebago]

I want that game - xenogears that is

[T3mpr1x]

PlayStation Plus has proven worth its price these past few weeks.

[gorebago]

Free sam and max def worth it

[BARF]

ill agree with you on that one. sam and max was $35 worth of downloads. it is also a surprisingly fun game (or 5 episodes that basically make one game. whichever you prefer lol).

[Olvipoika]

kz3demo wil be available to all for free next week ..........

[wolfehound22]

Sweet Killzone 3 demo.

[DFresh]

I'm looking forward to playing Plants VS Zombies and Stacking.
I would like to play the KZ3 Single Player Demo but I'm not subscribed to PS Plus.
:P

[cfountain]

im gonna pick up Explodemon myself. Hopefully there is a demo for it tho.

[d3nworth1]

POCKET FIGHTER!!!!! (SCREAMS LIKE GIRL) I LOVE THAT GAME.
