"N'Gai Croal confirms that the game will only be available through the PlayStation Network store, thereby ruling out a retail-bound UMD like that released in Japan.
The PSP version will come with 56 unique levels,
a number roughly in line with the (PSN-only) PlayStation 3 version."[/quote]
The level creator makes that a moot point for me, at least if there's a good sharing system.
Wombat, the difference between $40 million and $400 million is a fairly large amount of profit for most games.
It seems like it was Wombat's time of the month, as you seemed easily irritable with a dash of sarcasm thrown in occasionally. Wombat always seems to hate on podcasts with his first impression (SModcast and now Giant Bombcast).
Cheapy, the reason I've heard that there are no updates (the PS Store's still up and functional right now) for PSN until the 17th is that they're not just changing the looks of the store, but reworking the back end, as well. I'm surprised you're already worried about Home after being somewhat excited for it the other week, based on the feedback of the beta that probably doesn't have the things you may be interested in that will appear post launch, like the game integration that have been or have yet to be announced. One part of the Warhawk Home support was one of your main complaints about Warhawk in the past (no party system).
I like R6 Vegas 2 a lot, but it seems like nobody plays the game at all on CAG, which seems the other way around on the CAGcast. I tried out the clan gamertag thing that seems to be the norm in the 360 forum, but maybe only 2-4 people are on at all on Fridays and half of those may just be playing single-player or terrorist hunt instead so that seems like a complete waste of time for me. I could probably use the friends of a friend thing to eventually find someone, but that's just too much work for a simple game.
