UPDATE 2 - Demo is now up for everyone, not just PS+ members. For the uninitiated, if you're not in Europe you can still easily make a separate EU account on PSN and play it that way.

UPDATE - Demo is now available. Size is 5.7GB.

So the new demo for Puppeteer will be made available to play with the EU store update today. Worth mentioning that it'll only be available to PS+ members, and non-PS+ peasants will have to wait an extra week before they can get their grubby mitts on it. Strangely enough, there's been no mention of a demo coming to the U.S. store, so I don't know what that's about. Sorry fellas.

Anyway, this is the thread to discuss the demo.

And here are some purty pictures to remind you all of how exquisite this game is shaping up to be...

(thanks to cyborg009 for finding these images)

 

[Foshy]

Completely forgot that this was today Will download as soon as it goes up.

 

[Sendou]

Will test it out. Haven't really paid attention to this one.

 

[luffeN]

Thanks for reminding me! Gonna download and play in my cave.

 

[Tizoc]

I'd like confirmation please: Is this like the JPN demo or is it different?

It's a different demo. Far more content supposedly.

[samalpha]

Thanks for making this thread. I was worried it was going to go under everyone's radar.

 

[wouwie]

I'm on a media blackout but similar to Rayman Legends, i might give this demo a try to get an idea of the gameplay (i already pre-ordered the game though). I hope the demo isn't too spoilery.

 

[PaulloDEC]

Fantastic, I'd forgotten the demo was coming so soon! I insist that someone post the minute the update goes live (hopefully sometime in the next 3 hours, gotta hit the sack at midnight AU).

 

[PhantomOfTheKnight]

IIRC the demo is the first twenty minutes or so of the game.

Hate to break it to you guys, but seeing as how you're both in Australia, you're not going to be able to play the demo. Not unless you have PS+ on your EU accounts.

Oh? I'd understood that an Australian PSN account essentially IS a Euro account. We're treated as a member of the EU in every other sense (in regards to Playstation).

Really? I had no idea. I just assumed you guys were treated separately, the same way the EU, US, HK and JP stores are all different from each other. Okay, ignore what I said then!

Australia is handled by SCEE, so the demo is for you too!

 

[Napalm_Frank]

Dude where's my demo?

 

[Canis lupus]

Store updates at 17.00 CET right

 

[Empty]

[Napalm_Frank]

Apparently full game trial? Size 5,7 gigs lol.

 

[-MB-]

It's just a bonus for being Plus, you're gonna get it next week...
besides Plus is well worth the money anyways.

For those that dl it, can they confirm if its a 'Trial'? 6 GB is just...woah.

 

[PaulloDEC]

Crap, already committed to the Killzone: Mercenary Beta Trial tonight. I guess it's kinda nice to have too many neat things to play.

I've got it in my download list here, and it's coming up as 5876mb. Ouch.

Thanks for the heads up. Man, this is going to take ages to download.

 

[Napalm_Frank]

Maybe not, thats just what the silly webstore listed it as. Who knows tho, big filesize.

 

[Tricky I Shadow]

5.7 gigs is....ugh.

 

[Napalm_Frank]

5.7 gigs is....ugh.

Sorry I lied. It indeed is actually 5.8+ gigs :3

 

[samalpha]

Good lord.

Anyway, if anyone can, it would super awesome if you could upload it to YT.

Next week is a long ways off. And I have to wait that long to download over 5 gigs. UGH.

 

[Bluforce]

5.7 gigs is....ugh.

No way I download this. I tried the japanese demo, and it's great.

But 6GB, no.

 

[Tricky I Shadow]

Sorry I lied. It indeed is actually 5.8+ gigs :3

Holy moly.....I'm on a tight download limit here! : (

EDIT: Just realized my PS+ trial expired. **cries**

As i said, like MS, you need gold to get a demo a week earlier, and to some Gold is worth it too.

Dude they have that deal today where you get 3 free months of PS+ if you sub for a year. Just bite!

 

[PaulloDEC]

Oh man, you just gave me a great (if stupidly obscure) idea for a reaction GIF.

5.8gb you say?

 

[samalpha]

Dude they have that deal today where you get 3 free months od PS+ if you sub for a year. Just bite!

Go on. I mean, how to I go about setting this up, and then cancelling?

I'm on the site now.

 

[Tizoc]

Well it's just a demo/trial, what's the big deal if it you get to play it a week later than others?

 

[Napalm_Frank]

Go on.

Jim announced in the presser yesterday that today (when it goes live in the store) subbing for a year gets you 90 days additional. They did same kind of promotion some months back, great value if you like plus.

Man this DL is taking forever. Installing probably just as long.

 

[illmatic22]

Sucks that it's not on the US store but thankfully I have a spare EU trial code. And now we play the waiting game.

 

[Sorc3r3r]

Downloading....seems it will take some time XD.

 

[Tricky I Shadow]

It’s tempting, but money is super tight at the moment, like scary tight at the moment. I will get it one day.

 

[Tsunamo]

I'm 1gb off of getting capped, what a shame. Guess I'll have to wait till my downloads reset to try it. (good thing that's only in a day or two)

 

[Peff]

Thank you, based rental club that knowingly leaves stuff in the boxes for us to pilfer.

 

[uncharted86]

Do you mean how do you subscribe to PS+ and then cancel auto-renewal? Or what did you mean by cancelling?

 

[samalpha]

Do you mean how do you subscribe to PS+ and then cancel auto-renewal? Or what did you mean by cancelling?

Oh, I misunderstood the original post about subscribing. I thought you got 3 months free, and then could decide if you wanted to continue or not.

I was wrong.

I watched a few Gamescom demo clips from IGN. Mostly it was of the beginning. Showed some combat training.
