Sony Playstation 3: PSN gets R&C Demo Download

By: Chuck Schoene - Published September 11, 2007 at 10:03 PM EDT - Writer Archive
From the people that brought us many Ratchet & Clank adventures and the PS3 hit Resistance: Fall of Man is giving Playstation3 fans a brief look at their next big hit Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction.
A few of the Insomniac developers took some time to do an interview with thedaily.com releasing some interesting information. R&C: ToD will be hitting stores here in the states around the end of October, no real surprise there. But did you know PS3 owners will be getting to download the demo October 4th?

Insomniac stated they learned a few valuable lessons from the success of Resistance: Fall of Man. “We also realized the importance of opening the game with a bang – and that’s just what we do in RCF.” One of the first thing gamers will notice when starting their adventure in R&C is the amazing graphics. “The first thing anyone playing the game will immediately notice is the beautiful, highly detailed worlds that we have brought to life in Ratchet & Clank Future…we get our physics and effects systems running roughly four times faster than it did in Resistance at nearly double the framerate, which is something you can see in weapons like the Tornado Launcher.”

The download will be showing gamers the begging level of the game as stated by Insomniac. “Players will get a sneak peek of this level via a downloadable demo that should hit the PlayStation Network Store in the not-too-distant future." This not too distant future is less than 30 days away.

How about reporting this as news when the demo is actually out.

#2 because then it would be OLD news. This way people know it is coming and if they have an interest in it, they can make sure to get it when it does come out. Think of it as Preview News!

Also, by definition news is: "new information of any kind" / "new information about specific and timely events"

Thanks for the suggestion though.
