From what I've read, yes. I didn't have too much trouble in the few races I raced. But if you get hit with a weapon anywhere near the finish line, apparently you won't be winning. No matter how well you race, you'll still only be a couple seconds ahead of the pack.

But there is a casual difficulty if you're just absolutely stuck and fed up with a level.

Glad you're open minded about it. I agree with all the comments my fellow pro-Swaners have made, but would add one note: the game costs $3.75. It's like 1/3rd the cost of a beer at a sporting event or, as has been mentioned, 1/4th of a movie ticket (1/5th of a 3D one).

Frankly, I actually prefer short games now. When I hear something takes 3 hours to fully complete my ears perk up because I like to experience as many different games as possible and just don't have the time to commit to massive gaming experiences anymore. For me, longer games isn't the answer, unique and interesting experiences is. I'd rather have 2 excellent hours that I enjoy the whole way through that 10 merely very good hours.

Do you know when Ratchet And Clank FFA Is coming to the Vita ? I heard the blog mention the 29th but looks like its delayed again ?

Ratchet and Clank FFA I believe will be Feb but a date has not been confirmed yet. There will be a blog post about it soon though.

I want Unfinished Swan, but I have $2.50 in my PSN wallet and so I guess it's going to make me add another $5 in order to buy the game. That kind of sucks. So not sure what to do.

I thought I read that you can add exact amounts now through the webpage interface. Maybe that was part of the paypal discussion, I am not sure.

I thought you could do exact payment but with a 5 dollar minimum. Someone else could probably confirm this though.

This is absolutely where I'm at now, too. I hate it because I love the idea of these huge, involved RPG worlds where I can get lost. But I don't have the kind of free time I did when I was a kid. I can't get more than a few hours a day on a good day, and I can't play one game across 2 months and stay invested. Stuff like Journey, Unfinished Swan, and Papo y Yo are bite sized, one-night projects that are perfect for me. The artistic merit and interesting themes are another draw. And when I have an empty weekend sometimes I can spice it up with a 10-15hr shooter or action game.

But man, I do miss my oldschool RPG addictions.

yes! This was one of the games I was looking forward to most this year. That's not long at all after it's release in Japan either. Luckily I already had this pre-ordered at Newegg for $30.

Same here. Have $2.51 in funds. If I buy a $2.50, I wonder what Sony will do with my penny!

Maybe years ago. Now I see every movie in a theater for free.

so you pirate movies or you sneak in?

you said you can't justify giving a game money when they charge 15 bucks, you do realize that it's sony that gives a game it's price, not the developers of the game right?

They will hold onto that penny for your next order. And if you spend over $5 next time it won't leave you with change. They just have a minimum add of $5 (probably to avoid losing money on transaction fees.)

I have it pre-ordered with Newegg also. I hope they get the pre-order bonuses. The game looks really good from what I've seen.

Day 1 buy. Looks epic and they seem to be pushing that the story is a selling point which is a big plus for me.

He might work at a movie theater too. It's a long shot, but it's another possibility.

Neither regarding the theater. As far as the game pricing goes, I never knew that.

Well they can have my penny forever then! Hah.

Good.

Everything gets put on hold for me when this drops.

Newegg never gets bonuses in my experience.
