    Andriasang reports that the demo has finally been dated.  Its out on 1/27 for PSN and Xbox Live Gold.  Silver members, which would likely be anyone reading this, have to wait until 2/3.

    Was going to use my Japanese Live account, but since it's silver, think I'll use the PSN account I just signed up for. 
    Here's the instructions I used to sign up my Japanese PSN if anyone would like to use it to (in lovely video format)

    What type of games?  Nobody is quite sure what it is yet.  Also, looks like it will make little sense in any language.

    I've been avoiding details about the game somewhat intentionally. I'm really curious to get my hands on a demo.

    Yes, you can. Good thing is, that it doesn't have all the random verification as required in the USA, like actually posting a real address (I posted only the character "nu" for every blank), or submitting a real email (if you do it on the PS3 itself).

    Wow. That was pretty easy. Now I can't wait for this demo! I'll even be able to understand a small fraction of what is said!

    @natetodamax: It sounds like you weren't connected to Live at all. But regardless - If your account has reverted to Silver, then it isn't Gold anymore, it is Silver, and:

    @Cerogravian: The account was definitely connected to LIVE, because I remember looking at the Game Marketplace (or what I thought was the Game Marketplace, I couldn't read it) and seeing Japanese ads and stuff.

    Careful that you don't get dinged with the subscription when the free trial expires.

    If someone puts up footage of the entire game online, I'll put up a translation on the site. I could use the practice anyway. Unfortunately, don't have my PS3/360 with me at the moment otherwise I'd do so directly.

    Why must Japan hate PC gaming?  Seriously I REALLY want to play this game.  At least if it holds up to the hype I'm giving it.

    @natetodamax:  ...I think you need to read your own comments that people are replying to; I meant that the instance you described where @natetodamax said:
    "the Game Marketplace wasn't on the Dashboard. It was just My Xbox. "
    ...THIS sounds like you weren't connected to Live at the moment. 
    The Silver/Gold account stuff and everything is the same as in the start of the thread.
     
    @Vitor:
    Be mindful of the thin line between 'practice' and exploited labour. :P
    I'll see if I can't clear up some things as well, but I'll have to remember it while playing, don't have any fancy recordamajiggies or such here.
