"Presented as a "simple demo" during a German trade fair a few months ago, Linger In Shadows is finally a title exclusive to the PS3".

Now we know what Breakpoint really is! ;)

Random person: 'Ello, I wish to register a complaint.
Random person: 'Ello, Miss?
Scamp: What do you mean "miss"?
Random person: I'm sorry, I have a cold. I wish to make a complaint!
Scamp: We're closin' for lunch.
Random person: Never mind that, my lad. I wish to complain about this german what I purchased not half an hour ago from this very trade show.
Scamp:Oh yes, the, uh, the Demoscener...What's,uh...What's wrong with him?
Random person: I'll tell you what's wrong with it, my lad. 'E's dead, that's what's wrong with it!
Scamp: No, no, 'e's uh,...he's resting.
Random person: Look, matey, I know a dead german when I see one, and I'm looking at one right now.
Scamp: No no he's not dead, he's, he's restin'! Remarkable person, the demoscener, idn'it, ay? Beautiful beer belly!
Random person: The beer don't enter into it. It's stone dead.
Scamp: Nononono, no, no! 'E's resting!
Random person: All right then, if he's restin', I'll wake him up! 'Ello, Mister scener person! I've got a lovely fresh cuttle fish for you if you show...
Scamp: There, he moved!
Random person: No, he didn't, that was you hitting the cage!
Scamp: I never!!
Random person: Yes, you did!
Scamp: I never, never did anything...

That way I end the Sex & The City part of my life, and go back thinking on how can I improve my life

and to improve your life you continued to write boring nonsense on pouet right?

We also know that Linger in Shadows is really a "Puzzle" now. Puzzling.

A dreamlike, seemingly random sequence unfolds before your eyes; then it stops, spools back and starts again. Can you influence it? Can you alter or extend what you have already seen?

A collaboration of hypnotic art, subtle gameplay and invigorating music, there are no rules or traditions in Linger in Shadows. The laws of physics and time are irrelevant. This is not a game in the traditional sense, rather an abstract, interactive experience designed to challenge and captivate your inquisitive mind.



this is the worst shit i've read in a while, and that includes the morality thread.

So it's a demo with an interactive camera?
added on the 2008-08-08 16:03:52 by okkie okkie
that's quick.

no i'm still bamboozled by what i've just read. i cant comprehend how someone could ever write that :)
added on the 2008-08-08 16:13:34 by superplek superplek
niels: just to answer your question - it's just a typical marketing bla bla, we didn't want to write any info files so hhere you go. Actually who cares ;) Ah yes - and I'm looking forward for your nVision demo :). I'm really digging into it, you know :D.
added on the 2008-08-08 16:17:15 by bonzaj bonzaj
yeah it *is* marketing bla bla, and very bad bla bla at that :)

i mean it's a demo, and not a bad one, why cant they just give some correct context and point people to where this came from?

you shouldnt feel offended. though you clearly do.
added on the 2008-08-08 16:20:30 by superplek superplek
niels, like I said I don't care about this text at all, because we have the whole explanation of demoscene inside a demo. Thanks goes to ps for that. So If someone will want to digg more into it, then we give him a chance. Pointing directly here.

well ok.
added on the 2008-08-08 16:27:26 by superplek superplek
bonzaj: is it free or...?
added on the 2008-08-08 16:30:42 by xernobyl xernobyl
I guess it won't be free :(. I don't know the details actually.

okkie: yes it has an interactive camera. Actually gargaj described everything here (thnx for that mate :) ):

Is there already any media exposure of "into the pink" due to "linger in shadows"?
added on the 2008-08-28 16:25:15 by xernobyl xernobyl
you cannot trade Germans, you can only rent them :-)
