PSN Update: Get your Uncharted 2 demo photo

Some here might be offended that you'd consider downloading the Uncharted 2: Among Thieves demo when it goes up on the PlayStation Network later today. After giving the game our Editor's Choice award in our review, and then later awarding the title Destructoid's 2009 Game of the Year, we'd hope you'd trust that it's a fantastic game. You don't trust us?

Nah, don't worry about it. We're pretty laid back. Download it today if you haven't played it already. I don't know how good the demo will be, but we're sure it'll support our high praise.

What else for today on PSN? There's Square Enix's Thexder Neo in both demo and full game form. There's a LittleBigPlanet Groundhog Day costume. How 'bout a Dantes Inferno video? Maybe a Final Fantasy XIII trailer?

Oh, cool. I've wanted to try U2. Thanks for the heads up.

Also, I need to get that Groundhog Day costume, costume-whore I am.

Happy the demo is here; I've had a hard time convincing my brothers that this game is fantastic.

I thought the MP demo they had before release was pretty cool, but I did wonder why there was no single player demo. The boat has sailed for me as I bought this a long time ago, but its good to see they offer a demo now.

This is how good this game was, I own it, and am considering downloading the demo anyway.

Or love for us folks that don't care for the mass of boring cover based third person shooters that pass for "great games" these days?

@Wedge - Nobody who's actually played the game would ever say that. EVAR!! The game's hotter than IHOP's "All You Can Eat Pancakes".

IHOP is pretty disgusting, so I don't hold that in particular esteem. I watched someone playing this at a NARP recently and saw a gorgeous twenty minutes of cutscene followed by some extremely drab floaty impactless cover based shooting (are you shooting guns loaded with fucking marshmallows?), and then turned my attention elsewhere. I can't imagine the demo contains anything more than either of those things.

@ Wedge
Sounds like you missed a lot of the game. The stealth is extremely well done and so is the platforming and puzzle solving.

@Wedge
The cutscenes are fairly short. I think the longest one in the game is not nearly 20 minutes long.
Is it possible that you mistook gameplay for a cutscene? :p

LOL he probably did think that the gameplay was all a long cutscene.

My PS3's wifi has been ungodly responsive the last couple of weeks. Only things I could snag from the store before I got errors were the demos for Thexder Neo and the 2010 olympics game (even then the DL speed is below a snail's pace).

/sleep deprivation induced NVGR rant
Speaking of the Olympics, I will roundhouse-kick whoever is in charge of advertising the 2010 games on CTV. They remind us with their ads at least 20 times a day, every day, and they've been doing it for AN ENTIRE YEAR. Living in B.C., I can see why I guess I should be 'proud' that the world will be watching our province, but SWEET MOTHER OF MERCY over-saturation doesn't come close to describing what CTV has done.

On the topic of Uncharted 2, I don't own it because I have a way bigger backlog, and U2 is way back on it. I'd rather just rent it or something.

Valkyria Chronicles and LittleBigPlanet and Crack in Time were good though.

@RTsharpshooter - Downloading stuff on my PS3 has also been rather slow the last few weeks. I wonder what's up?

I live in the UK. I'm not even going to bother checking; I know it won't be there.
