Free Missions

• Undersea Relics
• Sleeping Warriors
• Plains Overlord
• Destroy the Multi-legged weapon!

Battle Mission

• Catapult Jump (multimode, internet multimode only)

Extra Mission

• Bruce's Dungeon (!)

This version of Bruce's Dungeon is slightly different than the one in PSU. Some monsters and traps have changed and Bruce doesn't tag along either.

This isn't that thing from me.

General Demo Information

• Requires firmware 6.0 or above.

>> oh well... I can't play it then... *sad*

Bruce Dungeon without bruce is too easy.

As far as I know, demos with 6.00 firmware can be played as long as you have the version.txt file with the right text written on it.

Hint- Undead Knights.

There are plenty of 6.0 games working on 5.00 M33!
There is a new game patcher that enables them to work on M33 cfw, I'm sure somebody will post a link when the demo is released...

Could somebody please explain the whole firmware thing to me? I do not quite understand it :<

Requires firmware 6.0

To start the game and play in any mode, except Internet Multi Mode: for this one, your PSP must be updated with the latest firmare (currently, 6.10). So, every time that Sony will offer a new version of its firmware, you'll need to update your console too if you want continue to play online.

Spoiler!

また、インターネットマルチモードをプレイするためには、常に最新版にしていただく必要があります。（現在 の最新版は6.10です。）

That which sleeps in the Relics

I assume it's "Sleeping Warriors", even if the name changed a little.

Since not everyone will get to be able to play internet mode in the demo, you don't actually have to have the most recent version. If you get lucky enough to play in it, sure, but if you're stuck offline, then you only need 6.0.

That's it. I haven't played the English version of PSU in ages so I don't have any idea what missions are what anymore.

With that, it seems that there won't be any trouble with playing the game itself. Online may be another matter, though...

So I take it this is the Japanese demo?
