  ok, when i first saw this game i thought WTF?? but it's actually really good

  Linger in Shadows will probably be one of the weirdest games you have ever played. It only goes for about 6 minutes 50 seconds, because it's a video that you can either just leave it to play, or you can mess around with ... Read Full Review

  Who?...When?...Where?...How?...What?

  By Double_Wide | Review Date: Jan 22, 2013 | PS3

  Still my reaction a day later after playing...or more like watching this. It's pretty much a six minute long video that you can pause and manipulate to a certain extent. In addition to being able to move the camera aroun... Read Full Review

  Linger In Shadows reminds me of Andrei Tarkovsky's film, Mirror.

  By closeworldopen | Review Date: May 11, 2012 | PS3

  I'm feeling generous, that's why this interactive demonstration earned a 10. Considering the computer animation sequences and music present in this title,three dollars is nothing much to part with. For me, it cast ... Read Full Review

  A short journey through a mysterious city with beautiful scenery.

  By ZanarkandTidus | Review Date: Jan 06, 2011 | PS3

  This game has an abstract,mysterious feel to it. You'll travel through a city and high in the air,but there is no people in the city and when you travel through the city,you'll see strange floating objects that look l... Read Full Review

  An interesting look into interactive art.

  By amkalfus | Review Date: Nov 04, 2010 | PS3

  I want to start off this review by saying this isn't so much a video game as we define one in modern times: this is interactive art. A story plays out in a futuristic world, and you are able to pause, rewind, fast forwa... Read Full Review

  A barely interactive six minute video I want my 3 dollars back I rather watch it burn than this insufferable mess

  By payne6705 | Review Date: Nov 03, 2009 | PS3

  Usually when I review a game I break it into categories (story, graphics, gameplay, audio pro's cons) but with this "game" if you will call it that I just can't there is absolutely nothing to it I physically can't review... Read Full Review

  Not so much a game, more of a short story. For less than the price of snack it is an experience worth witnessing

  In Brief The Good: -Loaded with a range of varying art styles -Epic music score -Loaded with soul The Bad: -Short lifespan I do consider myself a lover of a art and was curious to see what this title was abo... Read Full Review

  Is this a joke?

  By kattastrophik | Review Date: Aug 06, 2009 | PS3

  This has got to be the worst way to waste your money. I seriously would have benefited more from buying 3 dollars worth of gum. No sarcasm. There is one other review on here as of now that also gave a 1.0 rating...af... Read Full Review

  Mmmm, what to say about this one...

  By TheBatFreak777 | Review Date: Aug 03, 2009 | PS3

  Well, I used to be a pretty big fan of the old school demoscene stuff so I thought I'd check this one out. Yeah, not as cool as it used to be. Admittedly, the graphics on this one are pretty sharp and pretty and the ... Read Full Review

  It's neat, but is it worth $3? Like, no.

  By Villimax | Review Date: Jan 22, 2009 | PS3

  This "game" isn't actually a game (as the description says), but rather "interactive art". MORE LIKE INTERACTIVE CRAP It's 6 minutes and 50 seconds of lame. BUT LET ME EXPLAIN WHY BEFORE WE JUMP TO ANY CRAZY CONCLUSIO... Read Full Review

  Abstract and surrealist "art" has invaded the medium of video games.

  By zacattack214 | Review Date: Jan 11, 2009 | PS3

  Abstract and surrealist "art" has always been my least favorite type because I have never been a fan of meaningless imagery. One can argue that there is a substantial amount of "symbolism" in here, but because symbolism ... Read Full Review
