[PixyJunket]

Bummer, I would totally buy PixelJunk Shooter, Shooter 2 and Side-Scroller but I have to give the PS3 I'm babysitting back on Saturday.

[Carl]

That's fucking crazy, god damn Sony and their multi-region store BS. Was super excited.

SCEE, man.

yes, i would totally have bought everything pixeljunk that i didn't have yet at those prices...

[Kingbrave]

Nice sale, picked up Eden, Racer, Monsters and Shooter!

[Fancy Corndog]

Just got Pixel Junk Shooter, it's really rad! Easily worth a $5-$10 tag IMO. Got Racers 2nd Lap as well ($1, kinda just have to out of principle) but haven't played that one yet.

Already had Eden and Monsters.

[Oldschool]

If I buy PixelJunk Monsters Deluxe, when it becomes playable on Vita, will I be able to play it online on Vita?

[Revolutionary]

Datura was pretty damn cool in 3D and with the Move. Very good looking game, and while there isn't much to the gameplay, I found myself completely immersed in it. Unfortunately, the final shot of 'you' was ruined because I was playing in a pitch black room due to using both 3D and Move (better 3D picture and easier to track the Move) lol... so all I saw was dark static. Pretty funny.

[jvm]

This week's haul:

Knight Fortix 2 ($5)
PJ Sidescroller ($5)
PJ Racer 2nd Lap ($1)

Not bad.

[Afrikan]

Interested in Datura because I own the head mounted display in this video http://vimeo.com/41350330 However the developer has decided to hide that mode for the end user, requiring a special code to enable it. Anyone know the code? TTP, you know it right?

yeah man... I paid $800 for that thing, Sony Electronics better put their pimp hand down, make them tell us that code. >:(

I want to play it on the first play through using that mode!

[Gravijah]

It isn't really a racer. Slot cars racing with some different game mode variants.

wait, slot car racing? now i really want it.

[Darknight]

If I buy PixelJunk Monsters Deluxe, when it becomes playable on Vita, will I be able to play it online on Vita?

Technically, yes.

I can play ad-hoc no problem and I did a network test somehow once too.(like using PSP emu) But it depends on servers if they are still alive. If you are a previous PSP owner, like me, I will play this co-op with my buddy. We have spent soooo many hours on the PS3 copy, its not funny. His gf prolly hate we used to game till 1-2am trying to beat a mission or getting the rainbows...I forget.

Holy shit if this has the rainbow challenges....best $5 I have spent. I hope Q games ports all PJ games or new ones for Vita. They are perfect for it. I wish Dylan would make the "minigames" shown from the Dynamic theme into proper Vita games......a man can wish :(

Keep reading my posts, there is no code. Just turn on the second move, hold A and it works.

That said, I'm afraid to try it again.

[Infinite Justice]

just got the 3 in 1 pack and shooter but funds are limited and i can either choose Shooter 2 or Sidescroller?


Any help?

[PepsimanVsJoe]

Not sure how I feel about Sidescroller.

Controls feel a bit too loose, which is not something I like to see in a 2D shooter.

Play Shooter 1. If you like that, consider looking at the sequel.

So yeah I'm not much help.

[Tucah]

Play Shooter. If you like it, buy 2. If not, Sidescroller.

[ULTROS!]

Since I play single player most of the time, is PJ Monsters still recommendable?

[Grinchy]

I'm sure most people would disagree, but I actually liked Monsters better in SP. When I'd play co-op it was just way too easy.

[HueyFreeman]

Truth. Huuuge difficulty discrepancy between SP and coop. That said, coop is just so goddamn enjoyable. And ladies just absolutely love this game.

[Fancy Corndog]

I played and enjoyed PixelJunk Monsters way back in the gap and never touched co-op. Was that always in the game? I don't recall even being aware of it.

[jvm]

I never really looked at PJ Sidescroller before. The retro vector-like glow aesthetic and curved tube screen style are really delicious. It plays pretty well too, although my first impression is kind of in line with PepsimanVsJoe on being a bit too loose.

Still, what style!

[RatskyWatsky]

PJ Racer 2nd Lap is...weird. The controls for changing lanes is going to take some getting used to. It's not very intuitive.

Wait until you play on hard :)

If you listen closely when starting it up, you can hear a floppy drive. :)


Btw, I have no idea where to post this since it's really not thread worthy, but VUDU for PS3 has an update. The new features listed in the patch notes include Dolby Digital 7.1 support, downloading purchased movies, and it uses PS3 SDK 3.7. Hmmmm.

[Tylahedras]

How the hell do you do password recovery on your account? I sign in auto, can't remember my password, and can't update my card info...

I WANT TO GIVE YOU MY MONEY SONY PLEASE LET ME!

[Afrikan]

Holy motion sickness, I feel like throwing up. They didn't do the FOV the proper way I guess. 3d + moving your head all around the place + dissorienting FOV = I need to lay down for a few minutes.... Edit: omg i think im really gonna throw up. I guess my body wasn't ready :(

Sounds Sick! O_o

I don't smoke weed usually, but should i for this game? Sounds like an interesting trip.

[Edgeward]

I think you can use the SEN website?

[dreamfall]

Just bought Datura, off to hook up the Move and get lost in it completely! I'm excited yo!

[spats]

Or else what? What are you going to do, spats? Are you fucking kidding me? I want a rebate for that shit, Sony. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKKKKKK KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK. At least my ban on U3 DLC will be further justified if they do this for U3 in two years.

Their corporate blog. Bitter post. Count on it.

[Tylahedras]

thx yeah, just did that.

[Black Republican]

hows the rayman 2game Look?

[Tylahedras]

Sony, all your one dollar game are belong to us... errr... me.

[Desibabu]

Just bought Eden. Had a lot of fun with the demo when I bought my PS3 and at $1, I really have nothing to lose.

[TheSeks]

Their corporate blog. Bitter post. Count on it.

Who, you or me?

[spats]

Who, you or me?

Both, preferably.

[TheSeks]

Both, preferably.

Oh, I'd love to get my $10-20 back from buying the U2 maps and Co-Op arena mode, but it's Sony: I know bitching about it won't change shit. :(

Kinky.

[Floex]

Didn't even occur to me, I have funds on my EU account that I would have thought would transfer across. This is not the case, FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

http://blog.eu.playstation.com/2012/...te-9-may-2012/

[SxP]

I have Plus, but it's still kind of a dick move for non-Plus EU. Might as well wait a week or so and put it and do 0.99 for everyone.

[Snuggler]

hows the rayman 2game Look?

Curious about this myself. I've been interested in replaying Rayman 2 for awhile, but I couldn't stand the awful 3DS port and the PC version has some technical issues and the pad support is rough, so I'm hoping to eventually find a decent port of the game. I've heard the Dreamcast version is the best, but I haven't owned a Dreamcast in like a decade.

According to this thread they made some questionable changes to the PS2 version, but I don't see any mention of how it looks or runs.

[Carl]

Europe's PixelJunk sale is nowhere near as good as US's.

Unless you're a plus member. Lol SCEE

Fantastic. Will buy Shooter 2 and Sidescroller.

Shame no PSP PJM though. :(

There might be more on sale, the site doesn't always list all the games that are on sale.

[Carl]

Yeah but the US got most of them for $1, which is still less than the PS+ price :P

[Number45]

I wouldn't be surprised if there was MORE stuff on sale this week.

Hmm, insider knowledge?

Baby steps, they're getting there slowly. :p

Sorry I worded my reply incorrectly. What I meant was that the blog doesn't always list all games on sale, and I've seen that happen quite often.

[wackojackosnose]

Urgh, that's disappointing. I'm definitely gonna wait on the Pixel Junk stuff because of the US -> UK price disparity. Maybe next time Q.

Strangely, I am quite tempted by Final Fight: Double Impact though (£3.99) even with its shitty DRM. :/

yEAH The DRM sucks but...it's Final Fight man, get it for Haggar!

[Goldrusher]

Great update, SCEE!

[Mxrz]

Trusting in gaf (for all of $2), I picked up the bundle not knowing what to expect. I tried the car game first and ehh. Then I tried Eden and while I have no idea what the hell is going on, I'm loving it. Monsters is some sort of tower defense game, right? What about the non-bundled games?

I don't tend to follow the store threads, but are digital sales rare for non-plus members? There's a couple of older games i wouldn't mind grabbing at some point, but I'm not in any hurry.

[Combichristoffersen]

Eh. Forgettable EU update. How's the PS2 version of Just Cause, any good? I'm having a blast with JC2, would I enjoy the first one too, GAF?
