I don't know what America will get yet. We will just have to wait, like last week (minus the bitching). There has been no early PR release for a month now.


Oh and surprise:
--August 28th - WarHawk (also on Blu-Ray) - DL available in Europe as well
 
This MGS4 trailer is 857 MB, holy crap.

Is this "Exclusive Demo" just a way to build hype? Folklore better be worth the 1.1GB download...

Yeah it's damn huge! how long is the MGS4 video?
 
I've been waiting for this thread all day! (tanod rocks)
I'm going to go download that Folklore demo!

This is the first release of an English demo for Folklore. Only available for a limited time (maybe a couple/few weeks).

The MGS4 footage is the gameplay demonstration from the 20th anniversary party, not the GC trailer.
 
nm. already answered.

Everyone wants the new trailer - why are they posting MGS4 gameplay demonstration now, that's from E3, jeez.
 
Ok, I can't be the only one who thought those first two PS Eye games look pretty frickin' cool. As for Aqua Vita, I kind of thought it'd be more interactive then that, but I guess that's all it really is(a interactive screensaver).
 
Finally I can figure out what the heck is going on in Folklore.

I tried the Japanese demo and ending up slapping some creature over and over. I kept shaking the sixaxis hoping I would take his soul or something.

You have to pull it towards yourself, like if you're fishing.
 
Wollan said:
The Folklore demo is available until August 31st, says so in description.

Yeah says available for a limited period. Also it's even bigger than the metal gear thing it's over 1 gig.

1107 to be precise.
 
Gah, no PSN montage @ Leipzig nor Playstation Eye trailers on the italian store =/
But at least the 3rd parts for the Heavenly sword animation and behind the scene is there.
And Folklore (in an understandable language) is downloading!
 
Just watched the PS Eye trailer. All three looked cool but especially Trials of Topoq (or whatever it was called).

Basically your body shape is reflected in the floor bricks of a castle (they elevate). You move your body & hands to push a ball around and open cages, had cool music as well. A Ico puzzler if you will.

UK is pal as well, why dont i get all that goodness? Especially the PS Eye trail0r :(
 
Much like Americans should make Japanese and UK accounts, I figure Europeans not in the UK should make a UK account since that is obviously a preferred region as far as PSN stuff goes.
 
DOES ANYONE HAVE AN IDEA AS TO WHY THIS DEMO DOESN'T RUN ON A STANDARD DEFINITION TV?

It says "Demo won't play with the current video output settings."

WHAT THE HECK

They probably fixed the settings to only accept Hd? I don't know.

Well, it says "exclusive demo". HDTV exclusive it seems. ;)

Sorry, can't help you :(

SD output will probably be PAL only, is your tv ntsc?

Well the Japanese demo from the Japanese PSN store runs fine. I don't understand.
 
Btw, how am I gonna resist Wowhawk for 29.99€ on August 28? I want the retail release with the headset, but having to wait till September 21 sucks.
 
Uh oh, Core.. er I mean PS3 Standard definition is being phased out. Dun dun dun. (joking around) I'm on sd too. I was just about to download, thanks for the 1gig+ heads up Speevy, ouch.

Works for me in SD. Try 16:9 if you're set for 4:3.

Can't say it's that interesting. Gameplay looks boring as hell to me.

If you're playing it on a US or Japanese console that might explain it. Some PAL games won't run in SD on an NTSC machine (Tekken: DR is one of them I believe).
 
lol they can really deny 480 output now?!

The upside is this will "motivate" some people to stop using composite on HDTVs.

No, it's because of PAL. If you live in America, you have to have an HDTV or a SDTV that is compatible with 576i.
