A screenshot from Linger in Shadows

Linger in Shadows is a demo by Polish demogroup Plastic. It's the first demo ever world-wide on the PlayStation 3, and it was officially first presented at Breakpoint 2008 in Germany. The demo itself follows the "story-demo" genre, revolving around a cat, a floating dog, a strange tentacled creature and a cloud of darkness.

Linger in Shadows differs in an important aspect from many demoscene products, namely that it is an officially endorsed product by Sony, who trademarked the name late 2007.^[1]

Many news sites which reported about the demo assumed that it's a techdemo for a future game. ^[2] ^[3] This was denied during presentations at E3, although it was revealed that the demo does feature interactive parts.^[4]^[5]

There is currently no binary / realtime version available, the only way to watch the demo is through a video version released by the authors. It is speculated that the final, original version will be available from PlayStation Network.
