Also, does anyone know if the Japanese store is ever going to get a yakuza 3 demo or two like they did for Kenzan? D:

Why does SSF2HD Remix say trophies are incoming? There is a patch confirmed but nothing was said about trophies...?

Capcom said they would add Trophies later. It's been six months since Bionic Commando Rearmed released and i'm still waiting.

Was about to post this :D

I'm still waiting too and will NOT buy SSF2HD Remix until they deliver on their promise. It's freaking killing me since I recently got a Hori Real Arcade Pro. 3 :(

2 days early?
Goldrusher and I have decided to put it up whenever the first Japanese/HK update hits. The main content update is still the Thursday, so that is what the title will say.
 
I think in addition to the PSN Store update this thread should also show what content is coming for Home every Thursday (If the specific thursday has Home content) Since its also part of PSN. Just a suggestion. Can't wait for the Gamer's Lounge and Ninja outfit today.

Flower will be mine. I have not watched any videos of it since its E3 trailer (or atleast I think it was E3, whenever it was shown) so I guess I'll like totally be suprised when I get it. :lol

I was thinking of adding singstar content too. But someone already does a good job of that in the singstar thread ;-)

Really? The lack of PSN demos in general is sad. Flower looks cool, but my budget these days does not allow for much risk-taking.


you'd think that they'd give you a demo for something like this, it's really hard to get a good idea of how the game plays and flows without actually playing it yourself.

I'll do it. I already have the trailer on my HDD, just a matter of uploading it, which will take time.

My impression is that a single level would be enough for a lot of people, especially since they wouldn't know about the "plot twist" (that several podcasts and reviews have already spoiled for me).

Flower's got enough buzz that it really doesn't need a demo right now. Maybe in a month or two when sales drop off and there's an empty (or violent) week for the PSN.

Fuck this thread came too early. I got really excited for a moment thinking I'd have Flower tomorrow. :'(

Yeah, that could be true, but speaking strictly for myself, I'd like to try before I buy.

Whaaaaaaaat? A plot twist in Flower? I'm so fucking out of this thread and any other about Flower!
