MLB '10: The Show Demo Has Been Submitted, Waiting on Sony, Not SCEA

[Steve_OS]

Just to keep everyone up to date on the whereabouts of the MLB '10: The Show demo. Thanks for the confirmation Chris.

"I am not sure what purpose would be served by misleading you. We said there will be a demo....and there will be a demo. The simple fact is....The demo HAS been completed....the demo HAS been submitted for approval and posting. We, as devs of the game, have absolutely ZERO control as to when it gets approved or posted."

*UPDATE: From one of the admins at The Show Community.

"Just saw this there is no demo today or one before release."

Seems sorta aggrivated in his tone...

Wouldn't you? LOL. It's on Sony, not them. But yet, they get the majority of the blame.

B/c people keep acting like it's the devs fault when the opposite is true. I'm not worried about the demo though...I'd rather as much time be spent on completion of the game (glitches, bugs cleaned out) as possible.

do you blame him?

People are acting extremely immature over a simple demo. All because its not been released when they feel its appropriate.

I think he and SCEA are more aggravated that they are being blamed. When they have done the work to get the demo going and SONY hasnt approved it. So yes i think they are rightfully perturbed.

Playing a little Devil's Advocate here, but....

wouldn't them submitting it sooner = Sony releasing it sooner? I mean, last year we had it at least 2 weeks before the games release, right? How do we know that SCEA didn't handcuff Sony by not submitting it until the 11th hour, and then say "Well, we submitted to Sony, so blame them".

Just like you can't send something out in the mail a day before it is due and then blame the mail company for not delivering it on time when in fact the person sending it waited until the last minute.

Do we really need conspiracy theories to stir up unwanted emotions, and blame?

I just wanted to try and set the record straight. There will be a demo. We just don't have control over when it gets posted. The PSN team has their own schedule, etc. and there isn't much we can do to change the process.

Also, as I understand it, review copies were sent out the same time this year as they were last year.

they said back on the 19th that they had completed and submitted the demo to Sony.

Now if we want to call them liars...well then I guess we could.

I admit that it's disappointing that the demo will not be released before the game. I'm not sure that makes a lot of sense.

Also, seeing as the "S" in SCEA stands for Sony, you'd think Sony would bust their butts to make sure this thing was available today. Must be frustrating for the San Diego guys to have the demo ready only to watch their parent company twiddle their thumbs in releasing it.

I could careless about a Demo, i mean i'm buying the game regardless. But the demo is more for people who haven't played previous versions. We know there's no questioning the quality of the game but others who haven't played dont trust SCEA yet because they haven't played previous version, so i dont blame those gamers for getting mad.

but there WILL BE a demo. So they will get a chance to play it before shelling out the money.

Conspiracy theories? Can I not play devil's advocate and maybe stick up for Sony? Is this hard hitting investigating?
