Linger in Shadows comes with a handful of trophies; some are easy to acquire while others will require you to play the movie numerous times and dig very deep into the inner workings of this project.
The demo costs you almost three Euro and takes only 100 MB of your PS3's memory capacity. If the price is okay or not, everybody has to decide on his or her own. I appreciate the try to realize such a project on the console and also Sony's support for it. Hopefully, it is not the last demo-project on the console.

Linger in Shadows is a hauntingly beautiful, albeit extremely short, demoscene art "game". I think this fact has fallen on blind eyes with many reviewers here (professional or otherwise). It isn't a demo as in a video game demo, and it's not a game or tech demo of the PS3. If you expect it to be any of these things, you will be confused. Do a Google search for "demoscene" to understand the culture behind this art form. It's a cheap, quick trophy set, and an interesting demoscene project - exactly the things it should be!

Very good art direction and music. If you dont mind paying a few bucks for a fascinating 10 minute little art show and a few trophies absolutelly try Linger in Shadows. I wan to see more releases like this.

There was huge scope for something here, but we can't help shake the feeling that someone got involved at the wrong stage and changed what could have been an impressive technical example of the PS3's graphics muscle into a rudimentary, almost insultingly basic joystick tester - as a demo it's great, but would have benefited from remaining a demo. Budbrain Megademo, all is forgiven.
Gamers need not apply. This one is for the arty folk out there. Add five points to the final score if you fit into that category.
An interesting, interactive techo demo. But that's effectively all it is. Not quite worth the price.

Linger in Shadows, is not a game, Many people play just for trophies, because it costs 2,99!!!!!!!!! The LiS, is a trash, because there are so confused. There are: a flying dog, a robot, and a black cloud:

a **** title with a 3$ tag. this is not a game. its some interactive **** no point in playing. this is for the trophy hunters. an easy 100%. but if you are looking for some good 'time killing' games, you are in the wrong place. it doesn't deserve any score IMO. sorry.

Summary Linger in Shadows is not a game, but rather an experiment into the realm of interactive digital art. Created by a collective of talented artists based in Poland known as Plastic, Linger in Shadows delivers cutting-edge graphics technology and is the first "demoscene" project to ever hit a home console. Bringing this underground...
