Yeah. I enjoyed it too, but I kinda felt I was more into the art and music than the actual game. Maybe I'll pick it up today, not 100%...

I want more themes!

The Pixel Junk Eden demo just didn't grab me at all. I'll have to play around with it a bit more, give it a chance.

What I am excited about is the mysterious Life With Playstation. Any word?

The Last Guy Is Here To Rescue You
As The Last Guy, you are the survivors’ last hope to survive this global crisis. Actually, the hero of the game is himself a zombie from the Himalayan mountains, on a quest to save the remaining humans from the zombies that have infested it.
Go forth and save!!
Click to expand...

As for the gameplay, here’s a basic rundown. The Last Guy is a fast-paced and addictive classic arcade style game with simple controls. The game uses real-life aerial maps of various cities around the world, including Tokyo, London and Los Angeles. As the player, you are the last remaining hope in each of these cities to rescue mankind from the zombies roaming the streets. As you navigate the city, you gather survivors hidden throughout buildings and other nooks and crannies in the city. Once rescued, the nervous survivors will form a line behind you. The objective is to lead them back to the Escape Zone so the United Rescue Force can pick them up and whisk them off to safety.

So I liked Eden and I also liked Echochrome. However, I feel like the demos offered the full enjoyment of the games. Sure, Echochrome's puzzles get harder, but it wasn't enough to grab me. Is that the same with Eden?

No demo in Qore then as I understand it? Just Resistance beta access?

May just skip it this month...buying Eden for sure though.

This is a solid update to the store. A little something for everyone. I can't wait to get off work and go play the Madden and Facebreaker demos, not to mention pick up more trophies in Eden. I will be keeping my three bones for Qore though.........

How else can you get into the R2 beta? Are they doing the pre-order thing too?

I have that problem a lot with demos. I actually like a lot of the demos my 360 came packaged with, but they're so full featured I don't really see much need to actually buy the games. I don't feel like the experience will get much better than what I've already got. I have that problem with expansion packs too. In fact the only expansion I've ever bought was Burning Crusade, and that was so I could still hang with my friends in WoW.

However, with Eden, I was fully impressed and will be buying the game. Does Eden have trophies, or seriously, what the fuck, if not??

Gah, I understand where you are coming from, but paying the price for Qore to get into a beta is better than paying for a full game to get beta access (I am looking at you Crackdown).
