When it comes to platinuming games I always play ones I know I will enjoy, and not what's just an easy way to get trophies or boost my platinums. I also enjoy doing the harder ones, since they stand out more and enjoy the challenges.

Speaking of hard and challenging... just managed to beat Zico on WipEout. Time to beat is 30.82 seconds... finally got a good 30.80 and hearing that trophy pop was indeed satisfying!! SO HAPPY!

^damn u i want your crysis 2 plat hehe

that dedication trophy doesn't want to pop

This is very true. Looking at releases for tomorrow, Darksiders II will almost certainly be 66%-75% off faster than Papo & Yo will be 50% off.

I don't understand what games you actually enjoy playing...

Isn't it called "Papo y Yo"? "Papo and Yo" sounds kinda stupid to me, "Papo y Yo" rolls off the tongue.

It's "Papo & Yo", which is what it's been called since it was announced last year.

In text, the name employs the "ampersand". But in videos I've heard the game creator pronounce it in spanish which phonetically is "Papa y Yo". See - best of both worlds, no more bickering...

That's because he speaks the language, but to everybody with English as their native language, which is most of us on CAG, it's just Papo & Yo.

I think it's Portuguese because the game takes place in Brazil, but I agree that the ampersand should probably be pronounced that way out loud. Of course according to Google Translate the Portuguese word for and is e, although it has the same (or very similar) sound as y in Spanish, so Papo y Yo isn't quite right either.

This became far more complicated than I anticipated when I started the comment. I'm going to stick to & when I write it out.

I really wish this was coming to Vita. I can't imagine powering up my PS3 or 360 (where I own all my downloaded songs) to play Blitz.

They should change the name to Rock & Pop Band at this point. Kelly Clarkson, Elton John, Pink.. wut

Random question, but how to I prevent my PS from automatically downloading and installing betas (I am a PS+ member)? I have no interest in these and have to manually delete them whenever they download overnight.

Can't wait to finally play Outland. Will also be picking up Papo & Yo. This is a really good PS+ week for me.

Don't play the songs that you don't like. Just focus on the songs that interest you.

Settings > System Settings > Automatic Update

There will be a part where it lets you check/uncheck which aspects of Automatic Update that you want it to do.

Ah, thanks very much!

The ones that come in plastic boxes and cost money of course.

speaking of rockband(kinda), Guitar Hero. I've been meaning to start playing that game but I know there's so many different ones. Through a pm preferably, could someone hit me up on some details on the cheapest/newest bundle? Recommendations? Thanks in advance

Papo y Yo is the same thing as Papo & Yo, what are you guys talkin about? y means and in Spanish.

MTV Multiplayer: When and why did the name of the game change from "Papo y Yo" to "Papo & Yo"?
Caballero: It was a natural transition. In today's global market your message has to resonate with multiple cultures and languages (the name itself is a mix between "Papa," father in Spanish, and "Babo," father in Italian. Many people started changing the "y" for the "&" and I saw this as an opportunity to put input from gamers back in to the game.

Jeeze, someone woke up on the wrong side of the thread, lol. Remind me to never piss off the raccoon guy. Anyway, I'm one of the few left that won't let go of my plastic instruments so I'm looking forward to Blitz. Heck of a value and the DLC compatibility just sweetens the deal. I'm glad they include pop stuff (Foster the People, zomg!!!!!!!) as pure metal packs tend to be a little heavy handed.

I'm not pissed off by whatever you're talking about. I've never understood the people that freak out about songs that aren't their idea of what Rock Band games should feature like everybody should only be allowed to have access to their limited view of what kinds of music fits the series. You can easily ignore the songs that you don't like and stick to what interests you since by this point, most Rock Band fans have a large enough song library that caters directly to their interests.
