I pulled this down form the PS Store today due to IGNs pretty decent review (seen here (http://psp.ign.com/articles/837/837847p1.html)) and haven't gotten a chance to try it out. Is anyone playing this? If so, what are your thoughts? For $10 you can't go too wrong ...

No single-player = no buy
The exception to that rule for me would be something like World of Warcraft where you're always around other people but are under no obligation to interact with them if you don't feel like it. Seems like this should've been part of the $40 Syphon Filter - Logan's Shadow.

I just bought this last night and tried playing it around 12:30 am PST but there was only one other person online. So I tried today around 2pm and found there were about 20 people online so I hosted a game and sure enough ppl joined almost right away and we went at it in a standard deathmatch. I played quite a few games, including teamdeath match, and a CTF type game too. It was a lot of fun.
The only thing that hurts it right now is that not a lot of ppl are playing at the same time. I'm sure it'll pick up and when it does, you should have no problem playing at anytime you'd like.
I have yet to touch the Mission creator but it sounds like a lot of fun. To be able to modify the maps and then upload them.

No single player + $10 + no box or resale value = Nou buy.

If single palyer were there, I'd get it but too many multiplayer games forget it ala warhawk so forget it.

I was on last night as well and there wasn't too many games going. I think the problem is that a) it's a downloadable game and b) there's not much marketing around it so not alot of people know it's out.
I ended up playing SOCOM 2 and found a decent game, but it seems like with that one it's just a bunch of "glitchers" getting together .... this is why I have a hard time with MP online games and only play with people I know.
Happi, add me to your friends list (by PS3 if you can, otherwise in the game) and I'll look you up if I get online again.

What is a glitcher? Is it just a term for a cheater of some kind? How can someone cheat in this game?

It's ten fucking dollars, people. It's not a full game. It's multiplayer with an okay map editor. If you guys play Warhawk, Battlefield, or just bought Halo 3 for the multiplayer, you shouldn't be fucking complaining.
