Seems about the same to me. We had videos in almost every dev blog, which have been plenty, Ramone just posted a gameplay video yesterday, and there have been a lot of pics.

I dunno man. We will agree to disagree on this one.

you can't say for sure they did.

But I can due to past history strongly believe they didn't lie to us. And when I think about what they could possibly gain(less blame?) vs what they could possibly lose(faith of their fanbase), I'm convinced they are telling the truth.

when/if you are on the fence of whether the game is worth $60 then it makes perfect sense.

I never said you stated they lied to us. Your devils advocate stance was that they weren't disclosing the whole truth(I consider that lying).

And they already stated why the demo took longer this year, its because they wanted the demo build to be as close to retail as possible. The reason being, if the demo is far removed from the final build and is buggy and "subpar" then it could potentially turn away new customers.

Add me to the list of people who is not sweating the fact that we didn't get a demo before the release of the game. March 2 is almost here and I can surely wait a few more days to play the game. I also went to a local Best Buy today and watched two people play several innings against each other. The game looks incredible. I am SO appreciative of all the work that goes into making this the best sports game ever made. I also love how the devs openly invite the input of the community when making adjustments to the game.

You know what is amusing about all this speculation is that in the other game's forum a whole conspiracy theory popped up when the PS3 version of their demo was slated for next week some time. "Maybe Sony is delaying it on purpose, so their product if first to market...blah, blah, blah" Guess this theory is blown out of the water.

I suppose a rational person would think:

1) I don't know squat about what's really happening

2) Chris@SCEA just told me that they demo was submitted and everyone is just waiting on Sony and PSN

3) Seeing as the competing product is experiencing the same delay, maybe things are just as plain and simple as they appear (good ol' Occam)


But, I suppose that would be rather boring. Making sh*t up is certainly more entertaining.

Since Best Buy has the demo does that mean they are paying for timed exclusive demo releases like MS?

the PS3 community just cant win! j/k

Exactly.
