it was very nice watching it via the bp stream!
the way the crowd reacted to it was pure hype. (both, waiting for it and then seeing it.)

but this is not a demo.
(this is no console demo.)

this ´demo´ has grown from the work of the participants, i respect that. without TBL´s starstruck this would have looked and felt completely different, i think..

ofcourse i like ps3, and i would be happy if some crews do demos on that console!!

sorry but this is advertisement for me. its advertisement based on a community. based on demoscene community.

btw. binarys pleeze.

When Scene meets Big Companys...

Because this was out of competition on Breakpoint (they could even release it in the WildCompo) and the result is well done without any doubts I can fairly thumb this one up! Keep on doin'...

best

I just watched the trailer. We were not involved in making it, and I didn't have any clue that they will release such a shitty downcut. Well, they shoot themselves in their own legs.

well the story is simple: console war.
with the obvious nintendog, lime-circled x360 robot and the black cloud is ofcourse the PS (they love creating creepy image in the ads dont they) trying to reach the symbolic Olympia of the supremacy
braking 'through the screen' at the end as the allusion to the many other dony ads


holy shit lol

"playing" it on my PS3 now, superb, just bloody superb, well done guys :)
  added on the 2008-10-09 by keito  
yeah, out for 2.99 EUR... in Germany

Fine piece of interactive "digital art" :)
  added on the 2008-10-09 by steflon  
i don't like this much - it does not feel like demo at all. graphics are beautiful but the content itself is very uninspiring/weird, even ridiculous (flying dog, wtf :). also, it's very boring; let's see, 1:30 for credits - way too much. also the other scenes seem to be well over 1 min long as well. techically quite good, but imho not killer at all. oh well, maybe the game is better.

still, no thumbs down - due to lot of effort put to it.

ah, flying and morphing cubes are not ridiculous or weird?

extra thumb for the AWESOME hidden part! ;)
( thanks Gargaj <3 )

i might try and make a capture of it when i plug in my capture card because its worth being here imo, but i wont do that without consent first from the Plastic guys since it may have (C) issues i dont know, perhaps they may do it themselves? :)

yey! interactive fr-041 cubes! :D
  added on the 2008-10-09 by steflon  
Okay thumb time :-)

Its an interesting concept, though I can't help but feel the interactivity was a little forced... Though I wonder if anyone else will try something similar?

And yeah, the hidden part was pretty nice :-)

Trying this out on a real PS3 only made it more awesome! Great work!

Much better when viewed with real hardware. The concept left me bit cold but shaders and overall visuals are quite impressive. Though I guess you didn't utilize SPUs too much?
  added on the 2008-10-11 by pommak  
great stuff ! My girlfriend wants to know how we can save the dog though...
Oh thanks for getting me my first trophies :)
  added on the 2008-10-12 by Moby  
It's nice and all, but...

I don't think it belongs here. What do we have here? A video of a commercial product? There is absolutely nothing wrong with demosceners producing demos for money. That is actually quite an awesome way to make money! But in that case it is not a demo IMHO. A demo should have the binaries available for free. Not just a free video version.

So IMHO it should be removed or at least moved to the wild category, because the free part of this production is the video, not the demo itself.
  added on the 2008-10-12 by [self-ban]  
Really neat game. I hope to see more from Plastic. Maybe a full, non-demo game.
  added on the 2008-10-12 by elephantjewls  
pretty cool, great to see the demo scene represented so well on a platform such as this
  added on the 2008-10-21 by root  
great artistic skill and good music, but ultimately boring and nonsensical.
  added on the 2008-10-21 by plaf  
I hate myself for having mixed feelings on it :( Just because it's obviously an insane amount of work, talent and artistic quality, I'll put a fair thumb up. But...
  added on the 2008-10-21 by oxb  
Fantastically realized , much better in fact than the original video led me to believe. Overall impact of the real thing is much better, and shaders in particular look much better than what I thought from the video . Question though - what was the technical reason for making the spherical fractal so much simpler looking in the "Linger" mode than what it is in "Watch" mode. It's still interactive / rotatable in "Watch" mode, so I really don't get it.
  added on the 2008-10-22 by marconelly  
Technically unbeliavable work, but ....I don´t have any scene related feeling from this, it look like some nowadays trailers for games, it looks too commercial and blockbusting for me....no thumb up from me, sorry
  added on the 2008-10-23 by Trauma Zero  
finally a demoscene not on commodore or amiga!
  added on the 2008-11-14 by Optanes  
obviously, awesome
  added on the 2008-11-14 by [EviL]  
OK, so now I've got to watch it on real HW.
Considering that I had to actually PAY to watch it, I will scrutinize it much harsher than a free demo.

While it is a nice prod, I am a bit disappointed in the slowdowns. When you are coding for a fixed platform - go for 60 fps! Instead of letting it drop frames, tweak the scene, reduce polycount do whatever, but at least try to keep a constant framerate!
For a game where the user interaction takes much of this out of your hand I can accept slowdowns, but this is a demo - you know exactly how much will be on screen for each and every frame - use that knowledge!
  added on the 2008-11-21 by Sdw  
Despite whatever criticism (unjustified from my point of view) one may invoke to throw at Plastic, this demo basically refreshed the demoscene concept to the masses. It's history in the making.
  added on the 2008-12-22 by lafey  
Bit sluggish at 1080p, but considering it actually runs at 1080p and not 720p (like pretty much all games) I can forgive that.

Unlocked all trophies and hidden part, liked very much. Music and sound effects are much better but a little too loud in the final, couldn't decide if it was meant to sound a bit distorted or if it was clipping.

Would have appreciated an options screen where I could set 720/1080, volume and gamma for my cash, but these are minor niggles, all round a brilliant, well crafted production.
  added on the 2009-01-08 by Insectecutor  
Surreal and nightmarish, all good qualities in my book.
Does anyone know when we'll be seeing more demoscene for PS3 (playable or not, I'll have it)?
Perhaps something from ASD, Farb-rausch, Conspiracy or Keyboarders.
  added on the 2009-01-17 by mr rounce  
I know I'm little slow in asking but, could someone clarify what "Look forward for our next release called "Into The Pink" means in the hidden part, should we be expecting a PS3 version?
  added on the 2009-01-22 by mr rounce  
mr rounce

it really isn't that hard to do a search you know
  added on the 2009-01-22 by keito  
Well.. thumb up for gfx, music and overall wow factor, two thumbs down for advertising a game console.
  added on the 2009-02-09 by aizen  
Big thumbs up for the great work you've did!

Awesome demo! :o

  added on the 2009-02-19 by SoDa7  
I would hope to see more in future, not just from Plastic.
  added on the 2009-03-05 by mr rounce  
Despite all the hype and commercial lameness, I need to thumb it up for its "demoscene world domination" aspect.
  added on the 2009-03-12 by viznut/pwp  
Great job. Very cool. The visuals were well done but also the objects had a sort of painted\picturesque feel to them. Nice to see PS3 fans getting some love even though I hate Sony and everything they stand for.

What's wrong with robotic dogs? :|
  added on the 2009-04-05 by xernobyl  
big thumbs up for the work, but as a demo (not looking at the quality of the graphics, sound, code at all), entertaining wise, its kinda dull, but the work put into this, still gives it a B I G thumb upwards
  added on the 2009-04-05 by dwarf  
even if not my cup of tea as a demo, it does look absolutely fantastic -> thumbsup

BUT, it's just so totally against my ideas about the demoscene to sell demos for money. Even the 3dmark series offered free demo modes. I do understand the reasons, its the same on psn or live for that matter, but still.

Forget the cheap price (which is an excuse for the pseudo-interactive mode) and enjoy a neat demo with superb production values. Not quite on par with the Amiga/PC best works, but still a step in the right direction. We need more PS3 demos!
