Re: Official PSN Games Thread
So I tried the Papa & Yo demo last night. I'm torn... It's a gorgeous looking game with a unique art style that's quite impressive. It's sort of a puzzle platformer. But despite being a fairly meaty demo, it really wasn't all that fun or compelling. Now I admit, you don't get to play with Monster, which I think changes things quite a bit, but until that point the puzzles weren't challenging and the story isn't compelling. I liked the demo, but not enough to get the game, even at the $9 it would end up costing me after the rebate. Maybe it'll be free on PS Plus someday (half of last year's Play promotion is already).
I love the Monster allegory for child abuse. That's very clever. I just don't think the gameplay itself is all that great.
Did love the "hint boxes" though. If you get stuck, you can find these cardboard boxes, put them over your head and see that on the panels inside the puzzle solutions are pretty well spelled out for you. What a neat idea!

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
Against my better judgement I picked up Bloodrayne: Betrayal this week. I remember reading when it came out last year that it was hard. I love the cartoonish art style and it's tough to pass up a free game, but damn this game is sadistically difficult. The end of level 5 must have taken me at least fifty tries to get past.

I agree about Bloodrayne. It's brutal and frustrating. At least you got it for free. I spent $12 on that game in the PLAY promotion last year. 
Here's some news on an ....interesting new PSN excusive:
Tokyo Jungle finds a nest in North America September 25
by JC Fletcher Writer RSS (3 hours ago)
<iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/MQw2qyhZSxE" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Sony only kind of announced Tokyo Jungle for North America at E3, but now we have an official release date for the animal survival adventure: September 25. The price is $14.99, which is much, much cheaper than the ¥3,900 ($49) asking price in Japan.
In case you missed our coverage, Tokyo Jungle is an oddly fascinating game in which you control one of 50 different animals – ranging from a chick to a dinosaur – trying to survive, find food, and mate in a ruined, post-apocalyptic Tokyo. A story mode takes you through the lives of a set of animals "whose lives are intertwined as they struggle to survive in the Tokyo wilderness, while unraveling the mystery of mankind's disappearance." In Survival Mode, you stay alive for as many generations as you can, hunting (or foraging), claiming territory, and avoiding larger predators.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
In what has to be the most minor of minor news, I just discovered that the folks at Sony have decided to retroactively make StarDrone a cross-buy game. If you previously purchased it for one system, you now hove the other version for free. It wasn't that way when the game came out, but to get both version for $3.99 is a good deal, even if I think the game itself is really nothing too special.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
Went to download Zen Pinball 2 and saw that the original table pack is free as well as the Marvel original pack, both under Zen Pinball 2 Add-Ons.
The original table pack might have always been free. And I'm not sure if the Marvel pack is coming up free because I got Marvel Pinball through Playstation Plus. But as far as I can tell, while Marvel Pinball may end with my subscription, it doesn't look like the Zen Pinball Marvel unlock will. I could be wrong about all of this, and this could also be old news to everybody, but I just discovered it. The cross-play with the Vita will be nice as well.

Both packs were PS Plus freebies in the past. They will only show as Free to those who purchased the packs in the past. They will revert to demos once your PS Plus subscription expires.

I played a little bit this morning on the Vita trying the landscape/portrait views to see which I preferred (landscape by a small bit, I like the R/L flippers more than the touch screen ones in portrait). I'm interested in trying out the 3D mode on the PS3 version (IGN stated "3D options that actually enhance the game (the depth of field is priceless and highly recommended)") so I have to take the PS3 upstairs or bring the Sony display downstairs.
I only have 2 or 3 friends that have played (any tables) on PSN so far, so I need to add some more people to my friends list. I think I'm going to pick up the PvZ table any others that are recommended?

The 3D is amazing. I think part of it is because it's only one surface so you're not overwhelmed with all the layers and movement. I didn't realize ZP2 came with it, so I was pleasantly surprised.
To me, 3D on TV and games is a gimmick, watch it once, and put it back. But this is a rare time where I probably won't play it any other way.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
I found this out yesterday when I downloaded ZP2. I know both packs were free to PS+ users at one time, Zen Pinball (9/2010) and Marvel Pinball (12/2011). When I imported my tables it found both sets and also downloaded the unlocks, and PS Vita versions. I didn't pay attention to the unlock expiration date so that's cool if it's not tied to the PS+ account.

Epic Quest is amazing. I just re-bought it (had the 360 version) so I could play it on the Vita. Such a great table. I also like Captain America a lot. Excalibur is a good table. Sorcerer's Lair is fun, especially for kids. And the Avengers pack is worth every penny of the $10 cost.

I said it in the Pinball thread and I'll repoeat it here : Zen Pinball 2 is soooo good. Especially if you own a Vita. I'm bringing mine to work every day so I can play at lunch.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
Not really, but it has a 3D mode. And there is the four core tables which are exclusive (Tesla, El Dorado, Shaman, V12) and one exclusive DLC table available (Ninja Gaiden Sigma). Of course there are tables for FX2 that aren't available on ZP2 (the original 4 Pinball FX tables, the four core Pinball FX2 tables, Rocky & Bullwinkle, Ms Splosion Man).
The biggest difference is the free Vita versions that come with the ZP2 purchases.

Man, I really want Tesla and Ninja Gaiden. Maybe ZP2 is a good enough reason to finally buy in, though I'll never own a Vita. It would be nice if Zen had its own online ID to merge scores and friends lists across all platforms.

I'm not a huge fan of the NGS table, but that Tesla table is really great -- easily the best of all 12 "core" tables. I like Shaman a lot as well.

Didn't realize the original pack had been free for us +ers as well. That explains it. Was hoping we got lucky with a non-expiring unlock code.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
I'd already paid for it, of course. But it turns out getting the Marvel tables for free from PS+ turned out to be a good thing (even though I already had them on the 360) now that they're available on the Vita. They're not the best tables (though Spider-Man is pretty fun), but the more tables available for me on the go, the better. But seriously, fuck that Iron Man table. I hate it.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
According to IGN, (but not the PS Blog yet) if you spend $100 total in the month of October in the PSN Store, you'll get a $20 rebate to your wallet. That is a pretty decent deal if you were planning to grab some games anyway (or a lot of Rock Band content on that system). I'll be holding off on Tokyo Jungle until next week to get credit for that purchase.
Okami HD comes out on Oct 30 for $19.99. That's a Day 1 purchase for me.
And there's this nutty paper dolphin game that seems like it'll be worth the $8 they're charging.

Wound up joining PSN Plus just for Borderlands
Figured I could spend $20 and buy the game or just get a PSN+ Subscription for a little while. Also snagged Double Dragon Neon for nostalgia sakes, it feels similar to the original games but with more titty slippage. I may go ahead and do the PSN+ w/ $50 credit deal.
Infamous 2 and LBP 2 are nice freebies, though I don't have much interest in either.

Re: Official PSN Games Thread
Not actually official yet, but apparently NFL Blitz will replace Borderlands in the Instant Game Collection for PS Plus in October next Tuesday. Game is a little dated with last year's rosters, but the demo was fun. For "free", I'm certainly happy to grab it.
Also Alex Kidd & the Miracle World will be on sale for $1 instead of the usual $5.
