Hmm, been thinking about buying high velocity bowling. If I can get it for free with a Qore subscription and some other things like Linger in the Shadows, I may actually bite on getting the sub this week.

Dunno if anyone cares, but when comparing trophies with someone, you can see that a bunch of new ones for Magic Ball have been added. It's a new theme for the game; Witches. So I guess the DLC should be out any time now.

There's a blog post up about Comet Crash. Will be $9.99.

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2009/04/01/comet-crash-hits-psn-tomorrow/

Generally in tower defense games, you build up weapons to protect your base from oncoming rushes of enemies. Killing enemy swarms is a lot of fun, but isn’t it time to take out the nest? In Comet Crash, you use a variety of weapons to defend against enemy rushes, and you get the chance to fight back. The real objective is to rush the enemy base with your own offensive army!
Click to expand...

Feature Review

* Campaign with 28 stages, including some puzzle-like challenges!
* Training stage that introduces essential gameplay and tactics.
* Offline Co-op: Up to 3 players can fight through the Campaign together.
* Offline Battle: Up to 4 player battles with configurable teams.
* 4 basic mobile units with varying behavior, speed, and health.
* 4 additional specialized mobile units with extra abilities.
* 8 structures including weapons, factories, and others with special purposes.
* Defend your base and rush the enemy with your own army.
* Intuitive and powerful UI for building and attacking.
* Highly optimized for PS3 with thousands of AI-controlled units.
* 12 trophies.
* 3 difficulty settings.
* Online scoreboards.
* Supports 1080p.
* Supports BGM (XMB background music).

Comet Crash is available on PSN tomorrow for $9.99. Thanks for reading our post!

does that include the RF2 demo?

A Qore subscription might be worthwhile. They seem to pack in more than enough content/demos/free games to make back whatever the sub costs.

Minor correction to HK PSone games list for this week in the OP

○ Kagero (Trapt)
Click to expand...

Kagero isn't Trapt
Kagero is Deception II
Trapt is Kagero 2, which is not to be confused with Deception III.

...anyway, it should probably read
○ Kagero (Deception II)

Great game btw.

It stopped working a little over 2 months ago. Try to reinput a credit card you don't already have stored, or try to add funds.
