I've been so excited all day waiting for the store to update under the presumption it would include the demo. They were very clear about it being available today.
I blame Grace Chen :lol I too anticipated some werewolf slaughtering. It's cool though dude, tomorrow isn't far off :D

There is liquid rage flowing through my veins. If I were to impregnate a girl today she would give birth to a hairless cat with horns and a serpentine tail, pre-installed with rabies and fuck off.

Wait, wait, wait.... No Castlevania: LoS demo tonight? Fuck, I was really anticipating trying that out tonight.

Tabata confirmed that Square was actively working to get the games on PSN, explaining that the publisher is "making adjustments" to bring Parasite Eve and Parasite Eve 2 to the PlayStation Store.
1st Birthday.
2nd Birthday.

There's no way they're going to reacquire the license for the Parasite Eve name (or they would have done so for 3rd Birthday already). I'm guessing the "adjustments" include removal of the PE name.

Yep, that sounds about right.

Between this possibility, Sally Menke dying, and the Castlevania demo betrayalton, this is one fucking shitty day.

WTF. :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol You're a little over-excited over a 3D Castelvania, duder.

Also SFAlpha1 on sale this week. Not bad for $2.99, but I'm saving my cash for Arc the Lad. Sorry, Capcom.

Are those Japanese PSone games worth playing?

Gaia Seed is an average shmup that commands a ridiculously high price, more thanks to it's scarcity than it's overall quality - the game is decidedly old-school, it's paralax scrolling graphics looking well dated even by 1996 PSX standards, and the difficulty is seriously unforgiving. I'd only recommend it to fans of old-school shmups - however, the games one shining light in my opinion is the fantastic soundtrack, awesome stuff.

Cho Aniki on the other hand, it's not a good game at all - probably the worst of the Cho Aniki shooters, but it's certainly bizarre and might provide a few laughs, just not much gameplay fun.

A 3D Castlevania done right is absolutely worth being excited for IMO.

By the way, sometimes, things people say on the internet are over-dramatized ;)

Downloading Tomb Raider, Pac-man CE, Arc the Lad, and Lumines PSP. Sweet night.

Hope I remembered which game TheSeks is pining for...

I'm lying, of course. Pac-man CE isn't out, Arc the Lad isn't either, and Lumines PSP won't ever happen.

Yeah, I know, it's cruel. But I'm so dejected each week, it makes me feel a tiny bit better.
 

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 had a dream Arc the Lad and Alundra came to the PSN store just a few minutes ago.

This. I was really, really anticipating the LoS demo tonight. Plus my Dead Rising 2 copy didn't arrive yet either, so I have zilch to play tonight.

Awful day.

Got Lara Croft & GOL... Lot's of skipped $15 PSN games lately.. Lara Croft seems to be worth it so far..

I'll purchase the VC2 DLC, after reading what users have to say... Don't want to blow $4.99 on glorified side missions.

Any reviews on Swords and Soldiers?

Apparently my Assassin's Creed II DLC from the US store works on my Region 3 copy. Grace Chen redeemed.

Haven't read any review but I tried the demo last week, it was a fun game, but if it is the same thing, can probably get repetitive.

Try the demo out :)

Guess I'll try out the LoS demo when the store goes live.

Oh and I got my 2nd platinum trophy, which is Assassin's Creed 2, yay. :D

Okay, seriously, W..T...F!!!! I download the VC II DLC on my psp, one purchase on the PSN store says it contains 22 missions. yipppeeee right? Goes to download screen and you have to download each of the 22 missions seperately. Seriously, what the hell!!?? If they aren't going to put it in one download pack at least consider the PSP doesn't have a download all feature.
 
The US Store has hit a new low...on the front page banner of the 3-4 rotating banners, one of them is "SORORITY GIRLZ DYNAMIC THEME!"

...really? How the US/EU stores (don't get me started on the lower divisions) are handled compared to JP (and even HK), they are becoming a laughing stock.

Also, it seems that the US store is advertising "OVER 100 PSONE CLASSICS" in the 15th Anniversary banner, and ironically it just hit 111 count. "Guys, we need to say we have over 100 PS1 games up...release the shovelware in bulk to get the number up before then!!!"

Also, are ANY publishers going to even support the US/EU Store avatar section besides Capcom USA/EU and Sony? It's seriously pathetic compared to the bulk packs (from varied publishers and types of games) Xbox Live gets each week. Does it really take that much to stand out from the 100 other same-old avatars on your friends list?

ALSO, the Blazblue character DLC was just...added with no title of the game. Nothing even in the description that points it has anything to do with BlazBlue. Though this is probably Aksys' fault with the submission details. Yep, just thrown on the sloppy main listing along with all the other unsorted pieces of content in the update. Sony needs to do something about this way of updating, though the casual browsers won't care to look if it's categorized and not all in their face at once, so I guess there's no winning.

On the bright side, I bought Lara Croft, but still need to finish Deathspank ToV.

Thanks. Believe it or not, I bought The Battle of Forli just to get the Fly Swatter trophy (because I missed it and am not willing to replay the whole game again). Fortunately I had fun with it (although
it's ending was a major cliffhanger
).
 
Oh, awesome - Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood multiplayer beta for EU PSN+ subscribers.

Had no idea this was coming and was just debating yesterday whether or not to bother buying this instalment, so the beta couldn't have arrived at a better time.

Anyone else having trouble with the Ghost of Sparta demo? I've downloaded, deleted, and redownloaded it 4 times now and it always crashes my PSP to a full shutdown after the Santa Monica Studios logo.

are you on CFW or OFW?

Well that's a bummer. Was really looking forward to spend some money, but I guess you don't want them, Sony.

will probably get Lara Croft later
