Sony's Using the Noodle!

[Aikouka]

They're finally at least offering a demo of one of their PSN games.

According to this PSN e-mail I got, there's a demo available for Super Stardust HD:

Let's hope Sony gets the hint and does this for more of their popular games!

Wow, if this is true, this is one of the greatest ideas. Sony should win a Nobel prize for this, akin to Nintendo.

There are several PSN games that have demos, BTW, it's just that some of the big ones don't.

They should follow MS's lead and make the demo the full game with locked down features. That way going from demo to retail build takes a split second.

IMO, Nintendo is the one that needs to take a page from MS/Sony and offer demo's of Wii/DS games. And more importantly, let us use the damn SD slot to play/save from. I can understand maybe issues w/ speed for playing from.. but why not keep save data there.. and VC games can't be that rough to play off the SD card.

Although, I'm waiting for the refresh of the wii which will have something like 16GB built in flash memory and an ethernet port, and HD support... yeah, wishful thinking.

None of the games that I want to play do . I'm just apprehensive about buying them before I can try them and say, "yeah, this rocks."
