If anybody would like the Demo now then you can get it by doing the 4 days challange thats been going on. http://www.heavyrainps3.com/#/en_GB/experience

I also have one spare now should anyone want it.

I've got the demo, I've not played it yet though. One thing that worries me is the control scheme. If one thing puts me off, I believe that may be it.

I've not played it myself yet. Off to download it now. I enjoyed the controls in Fahrenheit so they dont worry me at all

I downloaded the other day and played last night, very impressed and thank the OP for bringing this to my attention. Think its released here on the 26th and will seriously consider purchasing.

Grabbed the demo this morning, and I must say I'm impressed, the control system was a bit fiddly for me at first with my dodgy hands, but I soon got the hang of it. nice character interaction, reminds me of some of the old classic adventure games (which I was a big fan of)

I might have to pop it on my ever increasing buy list.

I'm interested, but I think it will be a rental for me.

Played and loved the demo.

I have ordered the collectors edition from HMV as is same price as the normal version.

Console_Crazy · 15-02-2010, 14:41

Anyone else got the demo code so I can try it out?Or is it available to download from PSN now? Haven't been on PS3 for a few days.

cimt · 15-02-2010, 14:43

I'm pretty sure that the demo is available now.

Downloading the demo now

Looks good, but a bit buggy, hopefully this does not reflect the quality of the final release, also I think they've made the control system a little bit intricate possibly?
