[quote name='Nochance']I'm surprised anyone is anxious to play that generic looking remake. Looks like some garbage fanart that Gust would put in their games.

The creators left the studio before this halfassed project was in development( to join Grasshopper Manufacture I might add). Just get the real one. This shit looks like a joke.[/QUOTE]

I was actually really interested in it, until I found out it was a remake, then I was like whaaaa.... I already own it, which made me sad, and yeah the new character art, I'm not too keen on that either.
 
$19.99 is the buying price for New Little King Story for me.

I want to support more digital releases of games but not at that silly price, especially not for a remake.

I wouldn't pick up Muramasa on vita for $39.99 either and I really liked that game on the wii.
 
[quote name='FriskyTanuki']New Little King's Story is a sequel, not a remake.[/QUOTE]

Why do I keep hearing that it's a remake from people? o_o
 
It could be that the original announcement was poorly translated from Japanese magazines as to what it was, but it takes place a few years after the events of the first game.
 
It's a sequel storyline-wise, but gameplay isn't changed much if at all. There's an easy mode though, which I will shamelessly make use of if any of the bosses are as frustrating as in the Wii release.

Serious question: does ANYONE pay $60 for a digital copy of a game? Is anyone THAT stupid?

Games are $60 at release due to marketing, packaging, distribution, etc. Digital copies are always the same price, then rarely go on sale. Often times you'll find a game $30 months after release yet the digital version is still $60.
 
Meh, I like getting my games digital. Especially if they are games that I want right away (or until 9PM because of PSN). I gotten Dead or Alive 5 PSN Download because my niece and I are huge fan of the series.

I like digital download for games. I feel stupid. :drool:

Of course they do, as they wouldn't offer them at that price if there wasn't an audience for it. Some of those people are CAGs, too.

Some publishers have been offering their new games for pre-order at a discount and we've been getting sales on a retail game or two almost every week, so they are definitely offered on sale a decent amount of the time.

Some people may have gotten free or discounted psn credit, so they aren't really paying $60 out of pocket.
 
Know no one cares, but I finally got all 195 Spelunker HD trophies. So happy to have it done :3. Wish I could have done it sooner though. >
 
way to go admiralvic, you are surely a masochist ;)

couldn't find exact details, but Estimated Difficulty: Near impossible to obtain.
4 out of 3,858 (0.1%) players have earned this trophy.

so admiralvic is one of 7 people who has platted lost planet 2. and one of 4 people with 100% on spelunker hd. respect him even more

Haha, guess I have a new sig. Btw, I have both the US and JP 100%, which I believe only me and Ray have.

They're not too bad, but EX 10 is just completely unrealistic for most people.

Black is the base game, but with that black filter you see in area 6 on some stages. It was never released in the US and was later taken down from the PS store.

In January the rights pass from Irem to Tozai in Japan, which resulted in Sony removing the Irem published Spelunker games. Tozai never brought black back, but they wasted plenty of time staging out the EX levels and got a avatar pack US/EU has yet to get. Some suspect this will lead to a Spelunker Black Tozai Games Edition with EX levels, but I do think playing EX levels on black would be VIRTUALLY impossible and insane to even think about.

Thanks for that info. I guess if they made a Black version with EX levels that would be the right challenge for you. I could see you completing that since you make Spelunker look so easy in your videos.

Most likely they would be virtually impossible for anyone and would result in virtually no sales. The EX levels are WAY too dependent on timing out every single last detail, so changing anything could make the level impossible under normal circumstances. I've always thought Tozai was ashamed of Black, since they sold it for like 2,100 yen (like 25 dollars) and it was the same game with a filter over the whole thing. Sadly it did have some cool things, like the trophies were different (same tasks though), you played the black spelunker, the red spelunker attacks you, online had everyone as black, but with different color lights, though it's long since been forgotten.
 
Damn... I usually don't have the patience to try to platinum any game. No platinum trophies for me, and I've only FC'ed 4 or 5 Xbox 360 games. Nice work.

[quote name='slowdive21']I'm the same way, though I may 'legit' platinum Demon's Souls because I am a glutton for punishment.[/QUOTE]

Demon's Souls plat isn't really hard at all.
 
I don't have Demon's Souls plat, but that game was way over sold on how hard it is.
If you take your time and don't try to bum rush opponents, its not tough solo.
and the fact you can summon 2 friendly souls to help you, and they usually know the exact way and everything to do, makes it really manageable.
I felt a lil ripped off, and should have gone solo my first time, cuz i kept summoning blue spirits and they would know exactly which way to go and how to beat the boss and it took away that magic. but yeah, can't blame anyone but myself. kinda like borderlands with high leveled co op friends just defeats the whole purpose of the game, lol.

and a playthrough isnt really that long, i was always hoping they would 'fix' that broken monument or whatever its called and that would be a new dlc level, but nope.

now when they shut down the servers that they warned they would do every few months, then it will be alot harder.
no more black phantoms, but cmon, those guys are fun ;) ooh and i miss squid face prison guards and their bell chiming... so creepy!
 
The hard part of getting a plat on demon's souls is farming for rare drop items. I know some people that have spent 10 hours trying to get something to drop to never find one.
 
[quote name='slowdive21']It takes 3 playthroughs doesn't it?[/QUOTE]

Takes 3.5 if you are looking to do it legit (mainly because some of the Demon's Souls you need 4 of to make and get everything). If you choose to do everything legit, like I did, here are some tips.

First, make sure you know about the gecko's and where they are, since you have a limited amount of them each playthrough (some are in easy spots and others in tough spots). You need them since most of the pure stones from them and the farther in each level you get the higher quality stones you will find from the gecko's. Farming for the lower quality ones can be a pain, but its like any other grinding in an RPG. Hardest pure stone to get is the pure bladestone (has a really low drop rate and only two black knight ninja's can drop them in the game).

Second, try your best to get white character tendency on your first playthrough (I had to get mine on second and was a pain). For this you have to kill the black phantoms in each world to raise the character tendency. This is needed to get one of the rings. After that, going black tendency is easy, but getting white is a pain.

Third, don't let the 3.5 playthrough's look hard. The game is meant to get harder for each playthrough, but once you know what to do it isn't so bad. Believe on the second playthrough the difficulty (damage you take per hit) goes up like 60% from the first playthrough. The catch it though after the second playthrough each one only goes up by like 8%, so it's much less. Once you know the patterns and such for each enemy and boss it doesn't matter too much.

When I went through I made sure to do a lot of the stone grinding, and trying to push my character to white tendency as soon as possible. This made it so near the end all I was really doing was going through just getting the demon's souls I needed for weapons and spells.

While I did enjoy the game, I think a lot of people praise it a little too much. Good luck if you do decide to get it by normal means. I never did any friendly summons when i played. I only did the evil ones to get the Monk wrappings, just to get it.

Also, off topic but there are 140 people with platinum on Lost Planet 2 now, not 7. Granted, it is still a hard platinum (mainly cuz of not resetting the times online). More people will get it along with Spelunker 100%.
 
[quote name='slowdive21']It takes 3 playthroughs doesn't it?[/QUOTE]

takes 3.5 / 4 since you 2 souls (I think) are needed for a weapon, magic, magic and a miracle. You also need to beat every level on pure white (special bosses), pure black (colorless souls / special bosses) world / character tendency, and spend hours farming for pure bladestone (and others, but that will most likely take the longest). It's certainly not a game where you gain much doing it "legit", but thats what is required.

@ Velo

I agree (have the platinum), though I thought Atlus extended the server again. Could be mistaken since I don't care, but I recall having to post it.

the servers were supposed to be shut down on May 31st of this year but Atlus said they will keep them online for the foreseeable future
 
yeah i was rushing to find a friend to give me the pure bladestone weapon, i think you just need to hold it to get the trophy to pop, then you can switch it back. but yeah it was like the day they were gonna close the servers they extended it, which meant i still havnt put it in the ps3 in years, lol. im so bad. and god i loved being the black phantom. i use that giant meat cleaver Cloud Strifelike sword and would just try to 1hit kill. awesome. also spoiler alert, but the boss of 3-3, i loved doing that! especially when you put your blue helpful sigil down and then you are summoned as the boss. too cool.

and rpghope, i was just throwing #'s out there. i was just joking bout 1 of 7 people with plat, but spelunker it might even be less cuz it didnt have a cumulative total, but only 4 people had that final dlc trophy. peace out

also i felt so bad but joined a party of 3 when they were swapping weapons and tossing items on the floor and just destroyed them and grabbed as much loot as i could before it teleported me back to my game ;) its like legit griefing ;)
altho it has a downside, i can't recall how many levels i lost when i was drinking/chilln out and would join a game and fall off the mountain or hit by a rock or something. doh! don't play as the black phantom when you arent in your own head all the way :)

its one of those reminisce games where i look back and only played it for like a month, but still think of it as good memories ;) altho i could play it tonite, but of course, i have CoD withdrawal problems. omg (also i havnt done it, but i know they found a solo way to dupe items, idk if that works with demon's souls or colorless souls or whatnot, but i remember it has something to do with inventory and the store guy and flipping stuff really quick, just help if you don't wanna be legit and looking for a speed plat.)

[/QUOTE]

I know, I'm just giving ya crap on it :bouncy:, no biggie. I just know the number will go up over time, since people will eventually get to playing it. I know I have way too many games in my backlog that I would like to finish one day... only so much game time in a day.

You mention the 3-3 boss (which is where you get the Monk's wrapping helm). I was doing that to try and get before the servers were going down and it was so much fun. A lot of the players playing don't even realize you are playing as the boss. Had so many times they would disconnect (rage quit) since I would heal like any other PvP match would... good times.
 
Like just about everyone has said here...Demon's Souls is not that hard. The hardest part is farming some of the last chunks you'll need to get a couple weapons. And by hardest, it's really just a boring grind and the drop rates are stupidly low. The good news is that while you're farming for these drops you'll rack up a whole bunch of souls for leveling up.

In a time of uncertainty, when the city is besieged by plague and ruled by a corrupt government armed with industrial technologies, dark forces conspire to bestow upon you abilities beyond those of any common man – but at what cost? The truth behind your betrayal is as murky as the waters surrounding the city, and the life you once had is gone forever.

Demon's Souls is only hard for people because they play like idiots. They're not willing to learn a totally new way of playing a game and just keep doing the same thing over and over. As long as you're patient and willing to learn from mistakes (to be fair, deaths aren't ALWAYS your fault like people say) and willing to learn the level layouts, then it gets much easier.

I always got lucky with the drops and never really had to farm that much. In fact, I played it through again recently and wanted to make a +5 Sharp Uchigatana and got the Pure Bladestone in like an hour and a half.
 
My Demon/Dark Souls deaths were more from the environment and player shenanigans, less from monsters (Outside of bosses). Just reached Blighttown and only died 3 times

It always kind of reminded me of Monster Hunter, having good reads and being able to react. And not slashing wildly to get punished.
 
[quote name='TheLongshot']For some reason, I thought Joe Danger 2 was only coming out on XBL.[/QUOTE]
It's probably because that's the only version they ever mentioned until they made this post on the PS Blog about two weeks ago. It could be that the publishing agreement with MS forbid them from talking about any other versions.
 
I'm thinking of doing a little impromptu contest here in this thread. Guess what both of the two new PS+ games will be before they're announced tomorrow afternoon. If somebody can guess both, I'll give you a code for something on PSN amongst what I have to offer. If more than one person guesses it, I'll do a little raffle for it amongst them. If nobody gets both, I may do a raffle for those that just get one of the games. If the games leak before the official PS Blog post, then this contest is cancelled immediately.

Just quote this post and include your picks as the reply to enter. I may do this more regularly in a more formal format when we have new games are going to be added.

If nobody gets both, I may do a raffle for those that just get one of the games. If the games leak before the official PS Blog post, then this contest is cancelled immediately.

Red Dead Redemption and Darksiders. It's pretty unlikely to be both, but I do think RDD will be one of them.

Going to go with Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath HD and Red Dead Redemption for the free games. Mainly since there has been very little anticipation leading up to it. Most likely means titles EU has had.

[quote name='gettinmoney662']Demon's Souls is only hard for people because they play like idiots. They're not willing to learn a totally new way of playing a game and just keep doing the same thing over and over. As long as you're patient and willing to learn from mistakes (to be fair, deaths aren't ALWAYS your fault like people say) and willing to learn the level layouts, then it gets much easier.

I always got lucky with the drops and never really had to farm that much. In fact, I played it through again recently and wanted to make a +5 Sharp Uchigatana and got the Pure Bladestone in like an hour and a half.[/QUOTE]

I always thought it had that stigma because people wanted the glory. Over time it became one of the most impressive platinums on the PSN, which is COMPLETELY due to word of mouth. Hell, many people I believe only like it to seem hardcore too. I never got the appeal of failing because I didn't know the floor was going to break or someone stabbed me in the ass, since Demon Souls always felt cheap as a whole. Also, does anyone else see the irony in Spelunker being hated for the exact same reasons Demon / Dark Souls is praised? I've mentioned it a number of times and to this day I still find it funny.

For free games...
