This game (and Dead Nation) really need demos.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
 

A mini called Karimogi ate my Sunday. At about 9 AM, I started playing it just to check it out, and I looked up and it was 5 PM. It has familiar puzzle mechanics, but I can't emphasize enough how much I dig the platformer elements. :up:

It was free on PSN Plus at some point, and it's worth every penny of $2.99. I think I like it better than Critter Crunch as far as PSN puzzlers go.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
 

Thanks for the heads-up. One of the many minis I've grabbed as freebies that I've yet to check out. I like Flying Hamster, but it's pretty unforgiving. Didn't like the pipe one at all, though.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
 

Is the demo the full first episode? It only took me about 15-20 minutes to go through that and I figured episodes would be longer than that... The "demo" ends when you see the flash/sound of the DeLoren outside the garage/estate sale.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
 

I'm sure that's just a demo. The full episode was free for PC (and probably still is) at http://www.telltalegames.com/bttfoffer with the coupon code 161GIGAWATTS

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
 

Actually its 121gigawatts.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
 

Agreed. The pipe one was better on Bioshock. Vector TD is fun with a mouse on PC but not as much with a controller. I think Karimogi and Fieldrunners are the best two minis freebies so far.

I played a bit more Karimogi last night. It has a bit of a learning curve, but once you figure it out, it's very fun. The thing that took me the longest to sort out is that you can jump and push at the same time...so consider that a tip, I s'pose.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
 

This looks to be a fun little "freebie" for PlaystationPlus users today:

I think this is on iPhone as well and people liked it a lot there. Enigmo is also free and is a really good game.

I played some of the free Sonic game and it is really a mixed bag. The emulation has major issues like most backbone efforts. I had the game freeze for a few seconds several times while playing and the music still sounds off to me. However, it does have a full complement of trophies so even if you have the Sonic Mega Collection or the higher quality emulation on the Virtual Console this is a reason to play Sonic again. Once I grab the trophies though I'm probably deleting it. I still own a Genesis and CDX and don't have to deal with emulation this poor to play Sonic.

I played Pix'n Love Rush for a bit before Warhawk tonight. Interesting little game, but I didn't see anything worth paying for if you don't have PS+.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
 

I'll likely pick up Marvel Pinball at the first sale. I liked what I saw in the demo.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
 

I checked my license on my Sonic, and it appears the game expires when your PS+ sub expires. So it's not one week at a time or one month at a time as was previously conjectured.

And I'm suprised no one's mentioned it but they also released today the followup to the PixelJunk shooter tutorial. They're calling it PixelJunk Shooter 2.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
 

Pixeljunk Shooter 2 is awesome. That is all.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
 

Shit, I forgot about that. How much is it?

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
 

$10.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
 

Thanks. I got the first one during one of the sales, so I may go ahead and pay full price for this one.

Best PSP Downloadable Game

* God of War: Ghost of Sparta

Best PlayStation Mini

* Age of Zombies

Best PSN Exclusive Game

* Dead Nation

These four games will be discounted by 30% for everyone and 50% for PS+ members for one week stating today.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
 

Castle Crashers and Dead Nation are mine!

I actually got PSN+ last week for this sale and the Stacking freebie. :up:

Am I right to think that when I buy a game on sale via PSN+, I still "own" it, and it's not dependent on continued PSN+ membership like the free games?

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
 

That's correct. Anything you paid for is yours to keep, even if purchased with a discount. The free Themes and avatars are yours to keep as well.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
 

Explodemon trial is finally released today.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
 

I really should buy Dead Nation. I liked what I played of it at a friend's. He hates it though, for some reason.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
 

I will definitely be buying it for 30% off.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
 

flow is $2.99 on amazon right now. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B002GP6WBS/

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
 

I purchased Dead Nation and I'm enjoying it tremendously even though I'm playing it on Grim to unlock the Morbid difficulty.

Send me an invite if you want to play co-op...

Attention 2-D fighting game fans (who don't mind an inordinate amount of anime fan-service in their games), the all-girl fighting game, Arcana Heart 3, is now available on PSN for $30.

Sounds pricey for a downloadable game, but it's a complete package, with lots of fighters, and a surprising amount of depth, and it certainly beats importing the Japanese disc for $100.
