Awesome, I just saw the news on GT forum. I hope we get a US PSN update with it tomorrow.
Hey, PS3fanboy gets advertisement endorsement from Irish Springs? Lol, anywhere and anyplace eh?

The demo even has English voiceovers. I'm really impressed with how they've implemented this system. There are multiple solutions to puzzles, so it doesn't feel gimmicky. Definitely a must buy.

I...can...not...wait...
The demo was really really really short (5-10 minutes tops) but it whet my appetite just enough to make me want it even more.

For the life of me I don't get how to use the jumping and hole element of it this game is awesome though!!!
Remind of Portal

what a perfect time for my ps3 to break but hey this is my first console break besides my 360 breaking twice plus my ps1/2 and 64 still work but crap anyways tell me if its good or is if its a pass :)

Is there any fucking reason why there is no-antialiasing in the game?? Why do console developers hate anti-aliasing so much? It wouldn't be computationally expensive to implement it in this game. I have my ps3 hooked up to an hdmi enabled 1080p ready computer monitor and I can definitely notice jagged lines.
Other than that gripe, the demo was great.

Can you open a Japanese account without living in Japan?

Yes sir. Here is the tutorial I used: http://www.japanesepsn.com/

This is what people have been hyping so much? I hated it. The controls were too slow and then it thought it would be funny to just start rotating by itself. And it wasn't sixaxis desync.
Schoolimangooli @ Mar 6th 2008 12:51PM
Yeah the controls are terrible.
Break @ Mar 6th 2008 2:54PM
i believe you can hold down R1 to speed up the rotation

I got the demo from the Taiwanese PSN, it's a nice demo, it does remind me the feeling of playing Portal ;)
Only regret, the demo is far too short...
