Dear PSP Fanboy...

AUStin @ Feb 21st 2008 7:27PM

Alright this rocks this is gonna be sweet

sean @ Feb 21st 2008 7:28PM

you should post if its the same one that was sent out last year. im downloading it now and will post it in the comments if the blog doesnt update by then

sean @ Feb 21st 2008 7:45PM

yeah same demo.

Hashbrown_Hunter @ Feb 22nd 2008 6:39AM

Well about more than half the people here don't have the UMD demo, so I don't think those people care. Plus, I think it would be a waste of Sony's time to send out 2 different types of demos.

Lulu @ Feb 21st 2008 7:31PM

my wish has come true... 3/4 won't feel like forever now!

nightmare121 @ Feb 21st 2008 7:43PM

Omg finally woot woot

Michael @ Feb 21st 2008 7:45PM

Hmmm, this is kind of a disappointment because I already have the demo on a umd. But its still a nice update. Way to go sony!

Sean @ Feb 21st 2008 7:49PM

Anyone else getting errors?

It's not even starting to download T_T

AUStin @ Feb 21st 2008 7:57PM

Im getting some Errors when Im playing it even completely restarted my psp whne I was about to get in the tower:(

.P@BsLpKn @ Feb 22nd 2008 8:47AM

Same error here, some kind of twisted blue and grey lines appeared on the top part of the screen and then the PSP turned off itself O___o

Orophin @ Feb 23rd 2008 9:33AM

Same thing happened to me and it was at the same place too. Everything was fine when I tried the demo again.

jrohner @ Feb 21st 2008 8:14PM

can anyone help me? i get my demos from the computers on my campus. I can download anything (like from this site) and put it on my psp, but I can't install anything (like the psp store program) is there any way to get these demos anyplace else in a way like this site offers (zips and folders)??? thanks for any help!

sean @ Feb 21st 2008 8:28PM

halebound00 @ Feb 21st 2008 8:48PM

soul899er @ Feb 21st 2008 9:48PM

OMG ME TOO! xD

cbroz91 @ Feb 21st 2008 8:52PM

Thank you sony. It took you awhile, but between this and patapon, you are really starting to make use of an online game delivery method. You are finally starting to use the psp's full potential, and we thank you for that

Hector Martinez @ Feb 21st 2008 9:07PM

I'm getting an error. Lame.

Bryan S. @ Feb 21st 2008 9:15PM

YES! I knew I could resist pre-ordering just for a demo! Sweet

.P@BsLpKn @ Feb 21st 2008 9:25PM

At last!!!!!!!! Thanks Sony for finally realizing this was a viable way to promote this game XD

now lets download the demo and charge the battery...this will be a long night.......................but an awesome 1 ^.^

Tim Parsons @ Feb 21st 2008 9:48PM

F-YEAH!!!!

Paul @ Feb 21st 2008 10:26PM

Downloading this right now. Hope its good ..and i don't have errors

Vidaluko @ Feb 21st 2008 10:35PM

I get an error late in the game, the PSP chrashes and shut down itself....

WTF?

sean @ Feb 21st 2008 10:44PM

the demo worked for me but had alot of framerate problems the UMD version didnt have. maybe the demo is buggy.

Dru @ Feb 22nd 2008 10:33AM

Me too. No errors, but the framerate dropped considerably at least 3 or 4 times. Anyone confirm if this was the case w/ the UMD demo version? I'd hate for the framerate issues to be in-game as well.

Darkus @ Feb 21st 2008 10:50PM

-.-U GOWcoo on mi XMB XD

Darlaten @ Feb 21st 2008 10:52PM

The demo worked for me as well but I had some framerate issues and slow-down. In parts, the game seems lagged between when I press the keys and what occurs on the screen. Looks cool. Sounds cool. Will be buying - hopefuly there are no delays in the real version.

Tim Parsons @ Feb 22nd 2008 12:15AM

i never had that problem at all. You have the phat or slim? I have the slim

Darlaten @ Feb 23rd 2008 3:18PM

I have the PSP slim with the most up-to-date version installed.

Tim Parsons @ Feb 21st 2008 11:33PM

Damn this is one sweet Demo. No errors or anything for me and I played it all the way through

matthew @ Feb 21st 2008 11:46PM

when i try to download it says " you do not meet the eligibility requirements for this product" and i cant even download it

Hashbrown_Hunter @ Feb 22nd 2008 6:41AM

Is your firmware up to date? Sony is pretty anal about that.

Tim Parsons @ Feb 22nd 2008 12:26AM

This is Also on the US PS3 Pstore to install to PSP form your PS3

rockeranimefreak @ Feb 22nd 2008 12:28AM

hahaha I've been playing this since last year! good demo! (umd w/ charm!) w00t only 12 days to go!

Kalil S. @ Feb 22nd 2008 12:57AM

bernieboy23 @ Feb 22nd 2008 12:58AM

Oh dear lord, the 15 minutes I have been playing this was the most fun I have ever had with my PSP.

Bryan S. @ Feb 22nd 2008 4:15AM

There definitely is a framerate problem, but I highly doubt it's indicative of the full version's performance.

.P@BsLpKn @ Feb 22nd 2008 8:54AM

im starting to think that the framerate problem depends on the PSP model.

Alien @ Feb 22nd 2008 8:46AM

What about Europe ?

Alien @ Feb 22nd 2008 9:05AM

Never mind ... Im just downloading it :D

LM2007 @ Feb 22nd 2008 11:18AM

Omg, this is so sweet, i'm still playing patapon demo and now this!! at last we are heard.

GuyaneseRomeo @ Feb 22nd 2008 12:33PM

wow, love this game!

uber fox @ Feb 22nd 2008 10:28PM

I think the lagging is becoase of the memery card. aw what the heck. even if its my psp i'm still buying the game.
ROCK ON GOD OF WAR!!!!!!!!!!!!

ALEX @ Feb 23rd 2008 6:00AM

I'm a pspstore registred user from europe and i cant acces to the demo link. I go to the USA pspstore page and can't see the demo anyways, but i see games like crash 3 that r not avaible from european users yet. What i have to do to download the GOW demo¿?. Can anyone upload the demo for me?, thnks!

ALEX @ Feb 23rd 2008 10:40AM

I've created and USA pspstore account to download this demo, but when i connect my psp via usb to downloading, a message tell me that my psp is not linked with my new account, and that if I proced the download, the old account (the true one) is gonna be deleted.
Can anyone upload the GOW, MLB 08, Harvey Birdman and Puzzle Guzzle demos for the non-american users please?¿
THANKS!
