I'm gonna get all those $1 PixelJunk games. I played the Eden demo and that had awesome sound effects and visuals.

Hope we see the PJ love in the UK store. Still waiting to play Shooter 2 and Sidescroller, and would quite like to try PJM on my Vita.

Haven't played Racers, but for me it's:

All 3 are really good though.

It's basically the 2nd half of the game. Levels continue on from where the first ended, includes more abilities and the difficulty ramps up quite a bit as you'd expect from the 2nd half of a game. Worth picking up if you enjoyed the first.

Just out of interest, seeing as I have never downloaded anything from the US store, being from Europe can I download the US version but play the game with achievements on my Euro account?

I see thanks. I found the first game OK, it didn't captivate me THAT much but I liked what I played of it.

For a dollar the pixeljunk games aren't bad. Any more than that and well... :/

I've got Eden and have barely played it. Mostly because of that stupid time limit.

I think there are some exceptions (where the ability to play is tied into the account you buy the game with), but for the most part you can play them as long as you have the account active on that PS3.

Yep. I do this all the time. You get trophies for the account that "plays" the game, no matter where you purchased it from.

Knight Fortix 2 is finally coming out this week in NA, really a lot of fun.

Basically Qix, but with a knights and dragons theme. I really hate Qix, but I loved this game.

It just wouldn't be a store update without at least one SCEE disappointment.

I'm thinking of getting PixelJunk Eden, since I already own PJ Shooter, PJ Monsters.

I shall have to start sneak killing Sony employees in their sleep if they don't get Tomba up on PSN soon. They mentioned last year that it was coming, but still no sign of it. But I guess it's just Sony being Sony as usual.

Rumour has it that the pigs have asked for a pay rise.

Not true obviously - would be funny though!
