[quote name='Apathetic-Irony']I'd pass on LCS and wait for the (hopefully) VCS sale. I bought LCS and regret it -- if only because VCS is supposed to be much better -_-[/QUOTE]

I honestly liked VCS alot less. The smaller city size in LCS was perfect
 
Enjoying LCS so far. The lag is annoying but not game-breaking like a lot of others have said. And again, at $9.99, it's GTA in your pocket for the cost of dinner at a sit-down restaurant. What's not to like?
 
[quote name='Velo214']im tryn to wait til it's either 7.50 or free on psn+![/QUOTE]

It was that price not that long ago, when Costume Quest/Space Invaders was on sale. Though a free PS+ game...I can see it happening.

Anytime a gamer complains about something, it's an extreme overexaggeration. "OMG, the screen tearing makes this game unplayable!" Yeah, whatever.
 
Just wanted to toss in my 2 cents on MiniSquadron. Haven't played the PSP version but I've had it on iPhone forever and it's awesome. Picking it up just because I love the iPhone version. The dev is a really cool guy too. I've beta'd a bunch of his games and am already looking forward to his next iPhone project. Support your favorite indies people!
 
Still won't touch Plus, not worth it. Got the demo of Ghostbusters since I heard mixed news about it. Also had to try Tetris and dammit, I started at 1:15 and looked up 10 minutes later and it was 3:00. Both am. Had all but 2 of the variant modes unlocked and completed at level 15 within 45 minutes...

I was always so impressed by how R* managed to fit the whole GTA experience on to a handheld (and with custom soundtracks, too!), but I feel like the general clunkiness of the series' gameplay staples (aiming, lack of checkpoints, etc.) was magnified on the PSP.

For these types of games on the PSP, I've always longed for gameplay more like Saints Row, but using R*'s amazing PSP engine.

Oh well, I can dream, right?
 
Didn't notice that The Punisher's no longer on PSN. Its Wikipedia page mentions it with no specific reasons why and Google's no help.

I guess that may be reason enough to add it to the OP for Amazon deals if you guys think pulled games with codes that are still available to buy on Amazon or GameStop should be listed in the OP.
 
[quote name='Stimes']The Punisher: No Mercy is on Amazon for $9.99. I have some credit so I got it and it's not bad. I don't think you can get it in the PSN store or anywhere else.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002YGS5SM/ref=cm_cr_mts_prod_img

Also I bit on Tetris and SFA2. Thanks[/QUOTE]

Ooohh A game I can no longer buy otherwise, eh? Might have to buy this. even if it sucks. :p

Although $10 is awfully high for something that is probably terrible. I'd check for a demo on PSN but if the game is gone I can't imagine the demo is still up.
 
[quote name='FriskyTanuki']$4.99

And that's the only time that it was ever on sale.[/QUOTE]
Maybe they realized it didn't even sell when it was that cheap so they took it off the market.
 
I bought a psp and registered for psn using my psp I do not own a ps3. A couple of questions how good are the playstation ports from psn? If I buy a psx game that has the rumble feature for example resident evil 2 when I get a ps3 and download it there will the game have the rumble feature?

yes

I doubt it or there would be more games dropping because they don't sell. It could be that the license expired since the game was made before Disney bought Marvel and it has messed with other games like MUA2.
 
Code is gone!


If someone wants a free code for Karimogi send me a DM and I'll get the code to you. Only one code available, so first contact wins.

Thanks again! :)
 
[quote name='CaoPi']I'm unsatisfied with Tetris multiplayer I noticed there are only 2 modes you can play via online...[/QUOTE]

Same here. Its only worth 4.99, I cant see how they got away with charging 9.99 for it.
 
I ended up buying Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories (PSP), Tetris (PS3), and Street Fighter Alpha 2 (PS One Classics). I love buying things on sale and am glad the NGP will be backwards compatible with PSP digital versions at least.

I also ended up donating $2.00 to the American Red Cross: Japan Earthquake / Tsunami Relief Fund for that PSN theme. :)

Thanks, FriskyTanuki!

So is Lara Croft confirmed for a sale this week?

Im hoping they have another PSone classic on sale this week too.. something besides god damn street fighter over n over. Dino Crisis anyone?
 
if i were to get another year sub to psn+ would it stack onto the end of my current sub and would i still get the 3 extra months. i thought it would but then i noticed it said 1 year +3 months as an introductory bonus offer.
my sub ends in oct, i got it right when it came out, but i would love to get 3 more months for free cuz im gonna resubscribe anyway. has anyone done this knows if they are then good for 15 extra months or is it a one time intro deal and if i resubd it would just give me an extra year?
anyone who has done this or know i would greatly appreciate a reply/answer before the deal dies tomorrow nite. Thank You cags
 
I found the LBP Pirates pack @ Best Buy for the same price as Amazon but they charge tax. Debating on snagging it. Hoping Amazon will get it back in stock soon. It's only about 40 cents more but hey, 40 cents is 40 cents.

Thanks for the link, but can anyone confirm that this is the same pack that was on sale on Amazon? Other than the pic of the Pirates costumes at the top, the item description just sounds like it's the Pirates Level Kit only with the Pelegosto costume that's available online for the same price.
 
What time does the sale end today?
I need to get home and get Tetris before it's over!
Also hoping for LC:GoL. Played the demo and enjoyed it a lot.

BB only sells the Pirate Level kit, not the bundle with costumes. Just like the MGS Level kit also has pics of the 4 costumes, but DOESN'T include them ~ it's deceiving because people think they're getting both, but it's only level kits.
 
Yay lots of PSP love this week! Was hoping for $14.99 (50% off) sale on Y's Seven, but the permanent price drop of Seven and Oath for $20 each is good too.

[quote name='KemperJones']Hmm, still no Lara Croft: Guardian of Light deal. C'mon, already Sony.[/QUOTE]

You know it's coming on the next update!
 
yay, i got the 3 months last nite, so im good til jan2013. lol.
n yeah, im totally seeing hoard as a psn+ freebie since they have been trying to push it off on sale a few times now. peace n thanx but nothing for me this week...
well, maybe some dlc and maybe top darts...i spend way too much on psn!
 
I'll pick up Pacman and braid for $9.99 each since I doubt either is going on sale or for free anytime soon. I think I'd like deathspank too.
