Maybe they should release those fucking PSN cards then - They promised it so long ago and I bet you they could be getting more sales with them.

I know man,,,not having the card sucks big time for sony cause there are lot's of people under 18 that want to buy stuff from the PSN(especially after the video store)and simply can't due to not having a credit card.

Linger in the Shadows? I thought that was just a tech demo?

I guess it's just a free video for download. Not sure why they waited so long to release it, if so.

that's all i know:

 

"Presented as a "simple demo" during a German trade fair a few months ago, Linger In Shadows is finally a title exclusive to the PS3. Ce n'est pas un jeu, ni un film... This is not a game or a movie ... c'est autre chose. Prévu pour le 28 aout , voici les informations officielles : is something else. Scheduled for August 28, here are the official information:

A dreamlike scene and apparently without logic is unfolding before your eyes ...  Then the movie stops, goes back and leaves. Can you control it?  Can you change or deepen what you've already seen?

Linger In Shadows combines a hypnotic visual subtle gameplay and a challenging music: here, there are no rules or tradition. The laws of time and physics are no longer relevant.  This is not a game in the sense of the word, but rather an interactive experience and abstract designed to captivate and challenge your curiosity.

  •   Find the five seals hidden and open the way
  •   Check the time and take the measure of each scene
  •   Watch, enjoy, experiment and let you carry"

I'd imagine this will be free, or minimally priced at least. It's not really a game as such, just an interactive tech demo.

Sony Pre E3 2008: Linger In-Shadow Impressions

Wow. So Sony had this little head trip tucked away in a corner of the hotel suite where it had all the games playable at today's event. I had no idea what the heck it was when I walked over, I just saw a bunch of cool and random images on the TV every time I looked over. Dogs, cats, pandas, flying squid creatures, floating platforms- all pretty random stuff. My curiosity eventually got the best of me and well, wow. The title is a piece of interactive developed by a core group of folk from the European demoscene movement, all of about five people to be exact. So basically demoscene is a collective of artists from different mediums who work together to produce demos on PC that show off coding proficiency as well as visuals and music. It's a bit abstract and has really been more of a thing outside the US although it sounds as though folks are trying to get organized and give it a go in the states.

Why the Cliff Notes info on the whole movement? Well, mostly because it's at the heart of Linger In-Shadow. Sony approached some of folks involved in the scene and got them some PS3 dev kits and let them go to town. The result is Linger In-Shadow, a unique and stunning piece of PSN content that you'll be able to watch and have some limited interactivity by exploring the virtual environment that's been created. At first blush it just looks like a really cool tech demo but, we came to find that you'll be able to explore the crazy visuals you see and even interact with them. You'll see button prompts and even have to shake the controller to uncover new bits to see. Sound bizarre? I suppose it would in writing. So here, just have a look. As you can see: dogs, cats, pandas, flying squid creatures, floating platforms. Why not right? While this isn't a game, I'm pretty excited to see where Sony goes with this. Creative folks need outlets and this could be a cool one. The title is set to his this summer on PSN, no word on pricing.

I'll be getting quest for booty, and in Europe it will be coming on disc as well, so I will actually get that version

 The cards were released like 2 days ago.  They're at Meijer and some other store and are supposed to make it around to all the other stores by the end of august.
