Bionic Commando Rearmed demo out now on Japanese PSN Store...

[VictimOfScience]

So any of you with a Japanese Playstation account for your PS3 (which should be all of you!) can get this immediately. It is loads of fun and looks and plays great. I love the reverence for the original that the devs have clearly shown with this incredible remake. Every remade game should be this lovingly crafted. Get the demo then get the full game! IGN gave it a 9.4 ffs!! Now go get it! :thumbs:

Japanese PSN account? How does that work, and can I have both a Japanese one and a North American account?

You can also get it on the Xbox 360 marketplace regardless of region.

Really, the Japanese demo? :dozey:

Yeah, this is clearly a thread for PS3 owners. Thanks for the great info though.

Yes; I have a UK account, a US account, and a Japanese account. Its great for those items that are only available for certain regions like demos, videos, full games, etc. You just sign out of your usual account and sign in (automatically is easiest) to your other account for a different region. Then when you go to the Playstation Store, you get that region's store. Very handy indeed.

Got it off of JPSN last night, oh man, such a throw back! I love it, and with all the extra modes, trophy support and so on... this is a definite buy for me! The demo is actually pretty funny when you hack the computers lol

Awesome. I own all 3 consoles.

I wasn't aware there was a difference in the English/Japanese version of the game other than the language, sorry.
