    Default What's the name of this PSN game?

    I just got a slim PS3 over the weekend and I've been trying to figure out the name of this PSN game so I can download it but I can't find it in the store.

    There was someone in the forums here talking about it earlier this year (G-Boobie I think). Don't remember much details other than it sounded like a FMV-style game and was *really* strange. Could have been a Japanese PSN game but I'm not positive. And I think it was cheap too. Like $2.99 or $3.99.

    Anyone know what game I'm talking about?

    The only game around that price that I know of is Piyotama ($2.99), it's a puzzle game where you match eggs to hatch them.

    Noby Noby Boy is really weird and is cheap ($4.99 I think). I haven't played it but I've read that you control a worm thing and eat things then "fart" them out...

    EDIT: There's also Linger in the Shadows, it's like an interactive art game.

    Linger in Shadows.

    It's not really even a game, it's interactive art with trophy support.

    Thanks! I'm sure that's it. Yeah, I was using the word 'game' loosely here but I didn't know what else to call it.

    All I know is the dog irks the hell outta me. How this is somehow considered art i'm not sure. It's more like doing some REALLY BAD drugs.

    It makes little to no sense to me and I have refused to get the trophies for it even though it's supposed to be very easy. I got the "thing" for free thank god.

    Good art usually gives the "user" or viewer a feeling or emotion. I personally really enjoy Linger in Shadows. I like the design and I like the ability to mess with the graphics (a bit anyway). I see it as a beautiful idea and I like the various looks. My sister on the other hand, saw it simply as a nightmare. So, in that regard I do think that it can be considered interactive "art". I would personally like to see some more unique experiences such as this become available.
