Siren Blood Curse (aka Siren Hill) is nice I'll be getting that.

No Eden demo though - I don't think SCEE likes demos

[nofilter]

We weren't expecting an Eden demo in Europe, it's next week.

[paul_war]

Well the US are getting one, so I stupidly though we might get one as well.

But I guess I was hoping for to much, after all we don't even have demos for Elefunk or Siren!

I like the fact they can release the full games, but for some reason they are not able to manage demos/trial games, unlike the US.

[nofilter]

We'll get a demo next week. In the meantime, you can just grab the US demo when it goes up tonight, no big deal.

[Forbidden_Darkness]

If you dont already, you should think about making a US account to download demos and such.

[paul_war]

I do have a US account, anyone in Europe has to, to get any decent content.

The point is I shouldn't have to. It’s just the blatant incompetency of SCEE.

[nofilter]

It's got nothing to do with incompetency.

[paul_war]

It has everything to do with incompetency.

I just don't understand why they can release full games without demos, when the demos are out in the US.

Also how demos/full games are out on the US PS Store & Xbox live worldwide (meaning they have been fully translated/localised etc), yet somehow fail to turn up until weeks later on the EU store.

It's incompetency.

Australia gets jibbed too, sometimes worse :P

I've got a US, UK and JP account now, so I can get hold of content. It really is a shame that Sony doesn't communicate better worldwide

[solidt12]

I am getting Siren in the US today. I am looking forward to this game. It's a Shame the Pixel Junk demo won't be world wide this week. Oh well the full game with Trophy and Music support is next week which I believe is worldwide.

[Gamekilla]

in europe is a bigger a shame than lacking the eden demo....
£19.99 vs. $14.99? (i'm unsure of North American price)

[Mc Fadge]

Was terrible. It wasn't even the full one, and is it just me, or did it look worse than before?

[Gamekilla]

just you, i blindly showed it off to my friends already having the one released on pc....disappointment ensued

[Snarko]

The siren demo was pretty decent. Ill be getting the full game.

[thor]

I will just say the time delay from the US getting content to the EU getting content has been SIGNIFICANTLY reduced recently. Pixeljunk eden demo is meant to be out next week, along with the full game (worldwide simultaneous release). I didn't expect siren to be released so soon here.

That said, there is some bureaucracy that we don't know about and THAT is the reason these games/demos are released later. It's not localisation in terms of language translations and suchlike, so it must be something like a drawn out quality assurance process or a lengthy rating classification process.

[Milky]

Siren Blood Curse is fantastic game, definitely getting that. What I dont get though is why the chapters are overall more expensive than the full version. Why would anyone buy them ?
