The other poster was only given to players who preordered both games and featured a Pokémon game timeline.
Were they worth the preorder and what went to other regions? Lets take a look.

Posted by Maniac in Let's Play, Site Videos.add a comment
Sony released the BEYOND: Two Souls demo to little fanfare yesterday. The game is one of the final major PS3 exclusive releases this year before the launch of the PS4 and it could very well be one of the best looking games on the platform. In it, you follow Jodie Holmes, a girl with a supernatural connection, which could be considered a gift or a curse.
The demo is a little over 3GB and includes two scenes in the game that can be played however you wish. While these scenes have previously been shown in preview.
Here is the entire demo with Maniac’s commentary.
If you prefer to watch without commentary, please watch the video below.
You can download the demo right now off the Playstation Network store. BEYOND: Two Souls is coming October 8th, 2013 exclusive to the Playstation 3.

Pokemon Rumble U NFC Figure Unboxing September 11, 2013
Posted by Maniac in Site Videos.add a comment
Nintendo released a slew of NFC equipped figurines to work with the new downloadable Wii U game, Pokémon Rumble U. The NFC figure interacts with the reader built into the Wii U controller, which can read and write data to the figure as you use it in-game. The figures are sold only at GameStop and cost around $3.99 US.
The downside of the NFC figures are that every container is random and unless you’re buying a figure secondhand from someone who knows what they already have, you’re going to be buying a random figure every time you buy one at GameStop, and there’s a chance you could buy multiple figures of the same type.
In this unboxing, lets see what Maniac caught.
