Won awards in 2009? I had no idea it was in development that long.

Looks really good, though. Damn good.

 

[HiddenAway]

Possibly new, Foosball is a Table Football game from GripGames for PS3/Vita

The lazy version:

Move compatible
Cross-play between PS3/Vita owners
Game continuation ala Warrior's Lair between PS3/Vita
Buy once, get both Vita/PS3 versions

 

[SapientWolf]

So it looks like Wheels of Destruction will be out on PSN (SEN?) next week.

If any of you were hesitant about picking up Zack Zero at the price point it launched at, I have good news!

http://www.psnstores.com/2012/03/zack-zero-is-on-sale-for-a-limited-time-with-an-awesome-discount/

PS+ people will get 50% off the game, and everybody else will get 30% off it! Woo!

ATLUS are having a PSN Price Drop event soon; I'd post a pic, but GMail is derping on me.

What does ATLUS have on the (US) PSN that would make this awesome?

Edit: damn, everything for PSP.

Romino Games' Awesomenauts coming to PSN May 1 in US, May 2 everywhere else:

Looks like it could be fun.

 

[kassatsu]

They are polishing it now. Game still has to go through cert.

[Seraphis Cain]

What about Rock of Ages? ;_;

 

[NichM]

What about Rock of Ages? ;_;

This didn't stop being a thing that's happening!

 

[the chris]

What about Rock of Ages? ;_;

According to one of the people working on the game, it was submitted for certification to SCEE and SCEA and as of March 19th it had passed one of those. So as soon as it passes certification it just needs a release date.

With any luck it will be out by the time this generation is over. I bet it gets stuck in Sony QA hell.

Thanks for the updates! Can't wait to give it a shot. Looks crazy fun.

Hopefully it comes out this year.

 

[LiquidSolid]

What the hell ever happened to Retro/Grade? If I remember correctly it was once scheduled to come out in early 2011 and yet I don't think we've heard a thing since.

 

[jetsetfluken]

What about Rock of Ages? ;_;

Yeah, last I heard it was re-submitted or something, but hope everything is going OK with it.

Please let it just come out on PSN now, Atlus.

They said they hit alpha earlier this year, whatever that means.

 

[IISANDERII]

Anybody know when 'Vessel' is arriving?

 

[V_Ben]

Anybody know when 'Vessel' is arriving?

Not actually sure... I know it was announced for PSN, so hopefully it'll hit eventually.

In other news; Double Dragon: Neon.

[HiddenAway]

Pure Chess coming to PS3 and Vita next week in Europe. No online multiplayer but there will be turn based messaging play...

Price will apparently be £4.99. It's not yet known whether it's buy one get both.

 

[Jucksalbe]

At that price, I will probably bite. This is also supposed to get a Plus discount, isn't it?
Are there any videos/screens besides that one trailer that's on the PSN? I'd like to see at least something.

 

[GeoramA]

Haha, that's awesome.

As for the actual game, it looks like another TMNT Reshelled. No thanks.

 

[V_Ben]

Yeah, every preview I've read for the game isn't exactly positive. Why do I get the feeling Wayforward started work on this straight after bloodrayne was done.

Pure Chess hits US Store on 22nd May (PS3 + Vita versions)

Europe gets the PS3 version today with the Vita version following on 18th April 2012.

Post and launch trailer

 

[Seraphis Cain]

I wonder why Europe always gets chess games first/at all. They got Wii Chess as well, while the US didn't.

 

[SapientWolf]

I think there are countries over there where kids are required to play chess, and being good at it earns the respect of your peers. It's the polar opposite in the states.

 

[Jucksalbe]

Europe gets the PS3 version today with the Vita version following on 18th April 2012.

Bought the game today and played for about an hour. It feels a bit barebones, but I guess at that pricepoint, it's okay. Too bad this has no cross-play features.
I can at least confirm that it supports custom soundtrack, which is probably a necessity, since while I can understand their choice in slow and calm music, it's more likely to put you to sleep than to help you concentrate.
Also, I have to check, but I think the chess set with the Roman soldiers isn't even in the game.

Anyone at amateur level who wants to play?

 

[Wazzim]

PSN is down again, got disconnected while playing monster hunter -__-

 

[kassatsu]

Finally got word about Storm's removal from the store. It looks like I could be correct

http://www.psnstores.com/2012/04/an-update-on-storms-psn-release/

IndiePub has been crafting and preparing Storm for a simultaneous multi-platform launch. Unfortunately, due to an unexpected technical error, the game accidentally went live on PlayStation Network before it was ready.

"unexpected technical error" yea ok.

SCEE is so much better when it comes to PSP pricing.

 

[V_Ben]

No kidding. The amount of content in some of those games, £7 seems like a steal!

 

[michaelius]

Hmm this makes me wondering - Gow HD collection with trophies on PS3 vs Gow PSP games on Vita.

 

[V_Ben]

Hmm this makes me wondering - Gow HD collection with trophies on PS3 vs Gow PSP games on Vita.

Well, do you want the games at a locked 60fps on PS3? Or do you want them on the go? If you just want to play the game at home, go for the PS3 version, its incredible how well the games scale up to the platform.

 

[LiquidSolid]

That's pretty awesome. SCEE still have a long way to go but they seem to have finally understood that sales and price drops lead to more people buying stuff. It'll be interesting to see what other games they sneak into the update, like they did with some of the Square Enix titles last time. I have no idea why they don't provide a full list, it doesn't seem like a particularly smart strategy.

The PS3 version is very good... I played the two versions and the HD is well worthed... =)

Hope that the majoraty of the titles are Vita compatable, if so this is a good start for my UMD to DD transition (aKa JP loyalty program)... =)

 

[Carl]

If any of those work on Vita, i foresee my wallet being empty soon

Well I can tell you for certain that Killzone: Liberation doesn't work at the moment. Not sure about the others though.

Hum... Guess that I will have to test that... Thanks for the info... =)

Hope SCEE add Persona series in the price drops soon

That's Ghostlight's call, unfortunately I'd love to pay a sensible price for any PSP persona game.

Any word on Doctor Who Eternity Clock? It's almost the end of April and I still haven't seen a release date for this.

? It's only just halfway through April

 

[The Elite]

? It's only just halfway through April

Well, I assume we aren't getting it today so there is only one more date left in April that is a Tuesday and then the next Tuesday after that is May 1st. PSN wise, we're already nearing the end of the month.

Eternity Clock is getting a limited retail release in the UK.

But where the fuck is the release date?
