Well, I can double confirm it. Not working for US accounts. Sigh
You can just make a European account, it's easy.
That doesn't work. I made one then went to log in and it said I can't use another user's email to log in.
Actually, I just went and made one and am downloading demo now. Your email doesn't matter. Just fake all the info, it still accepts it.
I tried that, but it is actually a real email I had (different one). Then I logged out of my account on my PS3, but it wouldn't let me log into that one...
I'm not really sure what to tell you. There is probably something tiny you're overlooking.
Well, I had made another user on there before, then turned my PS3 on, logged in with that one, and went to the store. It asked me to enter location; put in UK and used my UK account, and now it worked. Go figure...
=D

If you make a new User on your PS3, you can synch it with a new PSN account.

played the demo and it was really awesome, also a note: turn your brightness up in the options, for some reason the demo defaults to a bit darker setting

ho ya, that's another thing; I don't have a PS3. I really should buy one for this game, but I doubt I'd be able to get one. so, see above for the "no".

Tom, I love you, if I could I'd transmit my hugs and kisses and "OMIGODOHMIGODTHANKYOUTHANKYOU!"'s across the internet.

But I'll spare you with just a tremendous;

[HEADING=1]THANK YOU[/HEADING]

I shall post my opinion on it shortly after I play it.

After playing the demo, I'd have to say It has nudged me even more in the direction of buying it. Not that I needed more nudging, however. The first half was a lot more fun than the second half, but overall good.

I have mixed opinions about ARGs, I haven't found any that have really sucked me in or inspired me.

That said, to me the idea of an Interactive Movie is nothing new, I'm passing on this one for a while. Besides I've already spent a ton on games in only two months.

I am a bit surprised that are catering to Europe, but then again it is a growing economy at a time when the US is in more trouble.

I'm very excited for this game, sucks that the demo code is only available in Europe though. Honestly, why isn't it functioning in North America? Hopefully it's just a glitch.

Just finished the demo and it really is an amazing and dynamic piece. From what I've played it is a cross between Dragon's Lair and all of the best parts of 24 and CSI. If this doesn't revolutionize modern storytelling in video games, then I don't know what will.

It is very beautiful and engaging and I highly recommend putting the work into setting up a UK account and grabbing this demo.

I'm going to go play it a third time to see if I missed anything.

Can't be bothered to make a European account, I'll just try the demo, once it's released to the public. Check out the registration for the site; there isn't even an option for Canada. I guess Canada has no gamers in it

It was pretty cool, and I like what they did with the second part of the demo... but maybe David Cage was right, this really isn't a game. It's an interactive movie all the way.

Well, the trailers and stuff for this game looked pretty boring, and the demo was. Basically just walking around with quick time events. Not really my type of "game", but it looks like everyone else likes it.

Well, I just played it, and I have to say I'm PSYCHED for this game. The combat scene (if you chose to do it) in the first part of the demo was very suspenseful and it was hardly just "Press X" and move on. It's actually really easy to mess up as you have to be on your toes and find whatever button you need to press.

Though I don't get why it had a difficulty setting, seemed pointless really.

I guess the higher the difficulty it changes what kind of quick time events are presented, like holding down several buttons to climb that hill in the second part of the demo.
