Download your Folklore demo today ... BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE! AARRGH! photo

Word on the street is that the PlayStation Network will be revealing a demo for the PS3's upcoming, SixAxis-yankin' roleplaying extravaganza, Folklore via the PS Store today. Hurry while stocks last, however, because it's being said that the demo is going to be available for a limited time only. Why would Sony be so restrictive? Who knows, perhaps to try and simulate a sense of hype and make everyone go crazy like they did over BioShock's demo? You know Kaz Hirai was sitting there in his Xbox 360 dashboard like everyone else, willing the download status bar to move another inch.

Whatever the actual reason, we don't even know what the time limit is. It's a complete mystery, so you really do have no choice but to flock to the PS store, screaming and weeping hysterically, pulling your hair out with desperation to get to those precious megabytes. Have fun, kids.

So it's in the US store? I heard about this on Monday, but I thought it was only in the EU PSN store.

Literally looking at the US PS store and it isn't there right now. If it's going to show up, it will most likely come up tomorrow when the PS store usually gets it's update.

Also, I thought this was going to only be up on the EU PS store... you confuse me so much Jimmy

I'm so sick of Sony and all their dumb girl games.

Ohh...you like her(360) because she is really good at "stuff" well look at me(PS3), here I'll show you a little leg, but only for a second to catch your attention. If you want any real action you'll have to go back to her(360)

Take your limited demos and shove them Sony...you have no games and then you have the nerve to come out with limited time demos??? Sony constantly is screwing us, i can't stand them.

I look forward to playing it in english. The Japanese demo was fun, but it pained me to skip storyline. To be fair, the gameplay was fun, but needs story to sell.

LOL at $ONY, Folklore == Bioshock? I think not. Though I wouldn't mind playing it nonetheless, guess I will just wait for the PSP version.

why the hell do people keep weirdly equating this to bioshock? they're not even the same genre of games.

The demo is different from the JP version, and a helluva lot better. (yes it is available in the US psn) Longer gameplay, and different modes for each character. I can't wait for this freaking game to arrive.
