Let me sum up the demo for this game in one word from Dante's mouth: BEEEAATRIIIIIIIIICE!!!
So that's not very clear, but for me the demo was all meh and bleh. The art was nice and fluid, but the story and its execution really does suck gigantic llama bollocks. We're talking topless ghost women, insanity involving a cloth cross being stitched to a torso, and killing death. Again.
Bonus points for making it a boring-ass fight, though.
It's not just like God of War, it IS God of War. The control scheme is literally the same. This isn't homage we're talking about here, the gameplay mechanics are ripped wholesale out of God of War. So it plays pretty well, at least.
Also: brilliant ESRB warning at the beginning. 'This game might be inappropriate for children'. Right. Very informative, that.

disagree, man, disagree. God of War's nudity wasn't nearly as hot

It's easy. Here's a (

First, create a new user. Log in as that user, then sign up on PSN and after choosing 'Country of Residence' as the US, make up a random US address with a proper post code to complete the registration.
kk, will do.
Proper post code in the US though? Guess I'll have to google this.
Edit: Done, DLed, played.
Fun. I really like the theme and I think this will be a getter.
On another note - PSN is weird. Using my US account I DLed Dante's Inferno demo and I notice that all DLed stuff, including purchased DLs, is playable on either account regardless of which account it was DLed from. I guess I now have access to all the US PS1 classic DLs now. Just need to get a PSN store card and Silent Hill will be mine. Wtf its not on the UK store I don't know.

You're going to need a US credit card to buy stuff from the US PSN, I think. There are ways around that, like virtual credit cards and the like, if you're willing to go that far.

Can't be bothered with that. I could by a US PSN Storecard though I suppose.
I see that having extra-territory accounts is against the T&C of PSN though. Its surprisingly easy to set up and why should it not be allowed? Money is money, no?

They haven't done anything to enforce it. There's no need of living in paranoia, it's like those who seem convinced that Steam will go out of business and shut down their servers the day after tomorrow.

Pretty sure you can bypass this using PayPal + UK card.

So, Penny Arcade says it's bad but has (or rather despite having) boobies. Now I can't decide whether to get it or not. Clearly it must be pretty bad. But... Boobies! :thumb: :confused: :( :joke:

Does it? One line? They don't have a review do they?
