The short thread title this week is depressing.. The postcount in these threads is also getting lower and lower. What's happening?

Also, TerRover (what a stupid title) is 15 bucks? Makes it an instant "I'll wait for a sale or something". There are still titles with awesome value coming out at 10, so I'm not going to bother with this shit, expcept when it's a really exceptional title I have a huge hype-boner for.
 
In the minis thread back in like January I called Flying Hamster as the 2010 GOTY (at the very least it will be the cutest game of the year! :D )

And now its here!

It is obvious, people can't access PSN because they aren't updating firmware... duh

I'd like to know what it's sporting to justify that price too.

Seems like lots of games are trying to gravitate toward a $15 standard lately, or something. Needs to stop!

Experience a "super radical" slice of Sengoku BASARA: Samurai Heroes on PlayStation 3 beginning September 7 when the Sengoku BASARA: Samurai Heroes demo hits the PlayStation Network in North America. Featuring two of the more than 15 playable characters available in the retail version, players can pound their fists as Ieyasu Tokugawa, or yield their sword as MitsunariIshida.

Taking place during 16th century feudal Japan, Sengoku BASARA: Samurai Heroes tasks players with fighting their way through hundreds of enemies in an effort to take over the whole of Japan. With highly stylized characters taken from the realistic stories of this period, each has their own unique weapons and moves that are upgradeable as they progress throughout the game. After filling their BASARA meter, players can unleash over the top BASARA moves for maximum damage.

Sengoku BASARA: Samurai Heroes takes over PlayStation 3 and Wii on October 12, with this PS3 exclusive demo arriving for download today!

Cool. Curious to check out Sengoku Basara. I've had a hankering for something to do with the Sengoku era since watching Ran recently.
 

ULTROS!

People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
I've been wondering... Does Japan have Minis?
 
Ace Combat: Joint Assault should be this week right? Was announced on last week's blog and yet nothing in the store...

Edit: I guess so! Front Mission 3 would be icing on the cake!

Weird... I was under the impression that Flying Hamster was a Japanese mini.
 
Xater said:
I think that's cool. I am actually suprised that we are getting one at all. In Japan they only put one out in retail stores.

It doesn't have the following or potential sales that it does in Japan. A demo is actually necessary to generate interest outside of people like us.

Top Gun and Worms Armageddon for EU I think this week.

Are SOE publishing TerRover? Wonder what's going on there, AFAIK Creat have always self-published on PSN in the past. Unfortunately SOE are fricking useless at bringing stuff to the EU store.

TerRover ($14.99)

might consider it for $7.99

(minis) Flying Hamster (€6.99)

wait, wasn't there a limit for the maximum price of €4.99 for minis?


I get the impression, that Sony is increasing the prices on the PSN Store, so they can implement this strategy:
1) rob the early adopters
2) offer a discount for PSN+ users a couple of weeks later. This makes it look like PSN+ is a good deal.
3) offer a discount for everyone months later
4) offer the titles for free a year later (once everyone interested paying for them has already bought them).

I understand the business reason, but from a customer perspective it sucks. Anyway, I will wait for 3) for Castle Crashers, TerOver and all those other upcoming PSN titles.
