I doubt it. If the current trend of "no Demo's/spin-off's for US/Canada" keeps chuggin' along prepare to hold your breath for a good while
 
Since the current issue of OPM with GT4 on the cover doesn't have a demo, there wont be one before Christmas. I doubt there will be anymore manufacturer demos since the release of GT4 is so close.
 
I highly doubt that SCEA would have a GT related demo ported to US/NTSC. For that reason alone I bought the GT4 demo from play asia. And I couldnt be any more happy with that decision :D
 
Not everyone has that option, 3rdgenracerX. Most of us have no swap discs or modchips or DVD burners, so all we can do is sit back and look at the videos and curse the name of SCEA.

If anyone has any contacts or phone numbers at SCEA, feel free to try to find out why we're getting stiffed yet again. And be sure to point out that PD made the demo with an Engish option for a reason.. this was clearly meant for more than Japan.

I know everyone doesnt own the stuff required to play imports. Even I didnt own swap disks prior to my purchase of the demo. Anyone "can" buy what they need if they have the money. If they really want it bad enough then they will make the means to get it. I'm fed up with SCEA's lack of attention to their GT fans, that and I wanted the demo really really bad.

I've called SCEA, a while back when Prolouge made it to PAL shores inquiring why/when US/NTSC users would get prolouge too. Didnt get anywhere, just a sorry we know nothing about it buhbye. I've tried sending in letters "as have many people from the playstation.com forum" all I ever got was an automated response of pure crap. SCEA apparently cares very little about us GT fans here in north america, for that reason alone i'm willing to go the extra mile to get what should have came here.
 
haha. yeah SCEA is really giving us the boot on these demos. We only got the major releases. GT 1, 2, and 3. I modded my ps2 for the sole purpose of the prologue because i was fed up with pushed back release dates on GT4. I often wonder what the sales percentage is here in the US as opposed to Japan and Europe. Does SCEA simply keep us out of the mix because they aren't going to make as much money on us as Europe ?? I think not, but I don't know the statistics (correct word?) for that kind of thing. I am just glad we are getting GT4 though, maybe not as soon as Japan, but hey, Japan always gets everything before we do. Sony is a Japanese based company anyway, right? so it only makes sense. by the way if anyone is super anxious and would go for a modded ps2 i do ps2 mods :-D. later-
