No PAL echochrome demo today News

PSP PlayStation 3 News by Tom Bramwell

6 March, 2008

Sony has told Eurogamer that the echochrome demo released on the Japanese PlayStation 3 Store today won't be part of today's PAL PSN update.

Sony said it would get back to us with a date for it as soon as possible.

We're not sure what actually will be part of it yet, either, but details usually come through at the end of the day or early Friday.

So, for now you'll have to put up with downloading it from the Japanese store using made-up account details.

We haven't yet found out what's in it - other than being told it's similar to the Tokyo Game Show demo - because our PS3 TEST unit doesn't do the whole retail shop thing.

(Update! Having finally gone home and tried it out, there are PS3 and PSP versions available.)

But, if you're curious as to what we've made of our experiences with echochrome so far, you can always refer to our TGS and then GDC impressions.

Echochrome is due out for PSP and PS3 in Europe in Q2 according to Sony's last estimate.

Because Europe is the most important market.

Oh, wait, Phil has gone now, hasn't he?

I've read that the Japanese demo has an option for English text and stuff, so it may just be a case of navigating the Japenese PS store until you find the demo.

It's disappointingly short, and replayability is going to be tough, but dammit I'm going to buy both versions.

And if that doesn't work, let's talk "global market".

I've downloaded it from the Japanese shop yesterday and fiddled around with it.
It's a very stylish puzzle game, which i don't get at all. I can't find myself bothering with it on the PS3. I think that it is a much better option for the PSP.
