Pfft.. seriously, it's a great game. Don't mind the overly picky bunch of whiners, the game is good enough looking once you get past the softness of the IQ (which doesn't take long). I've played them both, and still had no problem playing through the PS3 version to the end.

Oh, I was jokingly referring to the two Hustle Kings pictures above. :D

Have a fun! Enjoy!

I wish they'd release a pool game that is as simple as Monkey Pool (from Super Monkey Ball), something relaxing and straightforward.

HK looks like the opposite. It's basically an accurate simulation.

Insane For Sony
Hustle Kings trailer looked ridiculous. Like if everything was raytraced (with subsurface scattering) or something, and the level of physics showcased was unlike anything I've seen in a pool game before. Too bad there was some tearing because the whole thing looked almost pre-rendered otherwise.

Game is very early in development they say.

Anyway, yeah, I look at pics like this one

and it reminds me when I first saw this back in the Amiga days :lol

Fucking Bethesda, I had low hopes for the first Fallout 3 DLC hitting today, but now there's an article on the PS side of the Joy of Stick saying coding of the PS3 is "almost done".

Instead of saying late June their PR fuckers should just say "summer" and save themselves the aggravation.

When is this Hustle Kings game getting released? It looks amazing. I can't wait for it, even if I don't like pool THAT MUCH (I loved monkey pool on Super Monkey Ball, though)

I have a question. I downloaded Spyro the Dragon from the store, and put it on my PS3. If I was to go on the store from my PSP, and download it from there, would that count towards my 5 downloads?

That throwing stick stunt of yours has boomeranged on us.

it's not 5 downloads, it's 5 activations... but either way, why not just transfer it from your PS3 to PSP directly.

Just bought the Qore Subscription for one year.
Seems like a good time to start, even though I'm not fond of the design or format.
The June 2009 issue is included in the 1 year subscription which means a free Spyro PsOne game and High Velocity Bowling (although I already have HVB).

Something that's worrying though is that I'll probably will already have bought most of their offers that will be coming in future "issues".

Anyway, OF 5.51 fixed the MGS sound glitches. Yay :D

Yeah thats what I'm going to do, but I don't have that big of a MSD, and I just wanted to know incase I was ever away from home and wanted to download it real quick.

Does that count as a activation?

sorry I'm not sure, but if it does, I'd think it would either way you did it... but if you want to download it again and again over time, as long as your using the same PSP, you won't run into running out of activation problems.

there is no such thing as 5 downloads, you have maximum of 5 systems that it can be currently active on.

Wow, 4 UMD Legacy titles at once. New record?

Im glad the price point is not too high nor a weird price such as $22.99. Easy for the consumers who dont got a CC can just go out and buy a $20 PSN card and get it off the bat.

Speaking of Ubisoft, I love their new logo bootup (I've only seen it in a few videos like the Assassins Creed 2 video demonstration on PSN).

4 PSP Legacy titles. Sony was NOT bullshitting about 300 titles by 10/1.

I imagine they'll be like PS Classics where some are shovelware, and the gems will come along soon.
