So it says limited time only. I guess the regular price will be $9.99.
I have no idea if this game is any good but it has some cool features like:
2-player (offline) Coop
Wireless Remote Play w/ PSP
For what it's worth, the graphics looks kinda cool/stylish

Okay.
Didn't wanna seem dumb XD

I'm assuming the Playstation Store (I think there is a building in SF).You're from California?

Yup. I've seen two PlayStation Stores.
The one in SF is at the Metreon.

Offline Co-op. There is no online with this game. Still a great game

PS store refers to their online store here :)
Hmm, gonna check IGN and see if it's worth picking up. I'm tired of the 360s DRM bullshit and stupid point system...

Here is CAG thread discussing this game. (http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=162701) Use it to read impressions or ask questions.
If you like Desktop Tower Defense, then this game is for you. The graphics are a lot better and there is a lot more depth.

Damnit I just had my PS3 on high speed earlier tonight to download the DMC4 demo. If I had known this had PSP remote play it would have been instant purchase :(

Worth every penny, and leagues better than most of the original downloadable content on all the other consoles.
I started to play this last night at 11, and the next time I blinked, it was 1:300AM LOL.

Not bad for 8 bucks. Has anyone tried the two-player co-op?

Put simply, it's a cuter, 1080p PSN equivalent to Desktop Tower Defense (http://www.kongregate.com/games/preecep/desktop-tower-defense-1-5)--it's really easy to pick up, but really hard to put down.

Why no link in the OP?
EDIT: Oh, PS store the one that's only available online.

By 'high-speed', what do you mean? I've noticed many of my PS3 dl/'s tend to move slowely.

Buying this and Super Star Dust HD (great demo) as soon as I get home from work. The preview enticed me enough and at that price, I think it's worth it.

I got it, it's not bad. I haven't tried Remote Play but what's the point? It's not like you can download the game to your PSP--you have to keep your PS3 on and then remotely connect to your PS3 to play it. How dumb.

you can do it from anywhere in the world so long as the PSP and PS3 are connected to the internet.
it's pretty cool.

It also comes in handy if someone else is occupying the TV with non-gaming goodness (blasphemy, I know!).

I was going to wait and see if they would bundle this with PJR for $5 like it is on the Japanese PSN but after trying the demo I was hooked and had to buy it. I've been playing it for the last couple of hours and it is definitely worth $8. I've never even played one of these tower games before but I was able to jump right in and have a lot of fun.

Great game. The wife and I just finished it in co-op mode, which is a blast. You'll get alot of play out of this one, and for 8 bucks, who could resist?
