What demos or download games you playing?

Anyone try Linger in the Shadows? Going to get it anyway at that price, but just curious as to what you actually DO. As far as I know, it involves the SIXAXIS...

No! Do not!

I'll sum it up in about 2 words "Interactive Cinematic"

Basically it's supposed to be an artistic experiment. All the achievements are hidden and you figure it out by little clues given to you, then you play through segments of a pointless cinematic concerning a flying dog, a watching cat and some sort of black fog and robotic mask (seriously I wish I was making this crap up).

Shaking the controller, rotating it, pressing buttons at certain moments, etc. trigger your ability to branch off into a resulting cinematic (although all outcomes are equally pointless).

I respect what the developers were doing, as a still painting it might have fit but the graphics aren't impressive enough to allow a decent screenshot. The art doesn't fit at all in any kind of semblance of a story.

Seriously only buy it if you can't peek your curiosity (you will regret it though) and/or you want to farm achievements (you'll be earning a lot of them so fast).

I hear it was manily a statement or show-off kind of thing of the PS3's technology. I've seen videos and screens, looks very pretty...

I guess upon reflection it's not for everyone, but it is basically an interactive cut scene. It is pretty and technically speaking it does amazing things with technology but really it feels like a $4 demo with trophies.

I should be a little more understanding and say everyone should make up their own mind but I'm quite cynical. Try it out for yourself and see but fair warning... I told ya so
