[quote name='FriskyTanuki']The Club is...interesting. It's definitely an arcadey shooter where the levels are split up into different types of events. The ones in the demo are a racing shooter level (moving through a cyclical level so many laps with time remaining and as many points as possible) and a more straight-up action level (beginning to end with as many points as possible). It's all about fast and precise shooting, not much tactical action here, just shoot and move on. I'm not sure what the other level types are, but it's an interesting game that I'll keep an eye on in the busy first quarter of 08.[/QUOTE]


Ive been interested in this one for awhile since it was Bizarre Creations behind it. I thought it was a lot of fun, graphics and music were nice and I strongly prefer 3rd person shooters over 1st person - I always do much better when I can see my character on screen. I'll definitely pick it up, but Sega games always seem to drop $20 pretty soon after release so I don't know if it's a day one purchase.
 
[quote name='mykevermin']So stop with your fuckin' excuses.[/QUOTE]
I agree completely. I haven't played a game on my ps3 for months and don't even look at the psn store anymore. I really don't need to waste my money or time on what they have to offer. the only thing that really looks interesting is echochrome and who knows when that will be out.
 
I hope so, both the Hong Kong and Japanese stores have been getting updates this past week. Only the US store hasn't been updated since (I believe) December 20th. I realize that Christmas is a bigger deal here than in Asia but come on, at least make the PSN server automatically throw up some wallpapers or something.
 
Man I hope PixelJunk Monsters comes out tomorrow! I watched the trailer and have been playing Desktop Tower Defense a bunch.

>>>Oh and....

@alex_dlc (#1) - store update tomorrow!

Also mentions...

@ChaseHammer (#5) - among other things, fans of games involving guitars will have more things to play…

Guess that is those add on tracks that were released on the other system arleady.

I hope you all enjoyed the holidays, and the first 36+ hours of 2008 so far. We’re back to business as usual here at SCEA, meaning a PLAYSTATION Store update tomorrow, and regular postings resuming here on the ol’ PlayStation.Blog.

Yes, there will be a PS Store update. :D SCEA took the Holiday off, but they are back.
 
[quote name='CAG 79']Please let it be the DMC4 demo. :pray:[/QUOTE]
That would being insanely awesome...which is the reason why it probably won't happen :p

GT5 Prologue Japanese Launch Trailer

There's also a bunch of Need for Speed: ProStreet DLC that unlocks cars you can get by playing the game, but I don't feel like listing those since you shouldn't be buying them anyway.
And I think that's it. Looks like the Rock Band DLC makes the GHIII stuff look like a joke, pricewise.

And volume wise. I am really regretting gettting GH3 over Rock Band. I also think I would like the RB guitar better, as I have short stubby fingers. When RB comes out with just the guitar, I may sell GH3, and buy RB.

WTF is NFL Tour?
Possibly more boring than NFL Head Coach? I don't get how they have umpteen different football games, and still can't put out a CFL game. Yeah, I know how popular NFL, and how huge the population is in the USA, but really how many copies did Head Coach sell?

EA Sports' new arcade football game. I believe I heard the Sports Anomaly guys ripping on it, so you probably shouldn't expect much.

The gameplay vids I've seen are terrible. Absolutely awful.
 
[quote name='primetime']NFL Tour is just a renamed NFL Street sanitized to take the thuggish "black culture" that scares white parents out. Same concept.[/QUOTE]

fixed.

When I saw the description of "pulse-pounding, 7-on-7 football," I started thinking of NFL Extreme and how lame that was. :lol:
 
[quote name='dallow']It says Network demo.

Does that meant it's online?[/quote]
Not sure. Whoever gets it downloaded first can update us on what that means.
 
[quote name='mtxbass1']Well this update is great...if you own Rock Band or GH3. It basically sucks for everyone else.[/quote]

Not really, these songs should have been releases 2 weeks ago when they were releases on the 360.
 
[quote name='cochesecochese']WTF Sony? Pixeljunk monsters is already out in Japan. Why can't we have that shit here?[/quote]
Localization. It's coming this month, so don't worry about it.
 
[quote name='mtxbass1']Well this update is great...if you own Rock Band or GH3. It basically sucks for everyone else.[/quote]

No, it still sucks because paying over $2 for a song is just stupid (I only own GH3).
 
Ah geez, what a way to start the year. Again there is nothing I feel at all compelled to download.

From a cost perspective I guess it's a good thing.

So thank you Sony for keeping me from spending money and also for saving my time from downloading stuff for PS3.
 
Played a little bit of NFL Tour and it seems like EA Sports Big is trying to do to the NFL what they did for the NBA license. The controls are ultra-simple and the gameplay is very much trying to emulate Blitz. The field is pretty much an AFL field, walls and all, but outside. There are no kickers, as kickoffs are long throws and extra points are just an extra play. The announcers know all their NFL memes (They are who we thought they were!), too. It's not bad, but I see why it's $40 out of the gate.

I'm sure it's just another EA "30 frames of crap" game for us PS3 owners. As much as I hate Microsoft, I'm starting to hate Electronic Arts just as much if not more!

They way they've treated our versions of the sports titles they've released so far, they may as well just go exclusive on Xbox 360. I bought Madden 2007 when I got my system (July 2007), and I've only played it once or twice.

I don't forsee myself ever buying another EA Sports product, and as a gamer that's hard for me to believe I'd ever admit this.

You do know that after Madden, the rest of EA Sports' games have been the same on both consoles, right?

Looks like we've got a Yakuza 3 demo coming in the near future for those with Japanese accounts.
 
In Canada we are getting royally screwed. GH songs are $3.50, and Rock Band songs are $2 (I think they are only $1 stateside). What a crock, the dollar is basically at par.

[quote name='simplygriff']Not sure where to ask this and didn't want to make a whole new thread.

Can Mortal Kombat II be played online?
-G[/quote]
Yes. It should be listed in the description.
 
WTF is that garbage with Rockband getting 30 seconds to mars and not gh3. God Im so freaking tempted to go get rockband right now Im so pissed off.
 
The GH prices are BS, compared to RB. Especially when you consider the fact that prepping the songs for RB involves double the work (+voice, +drums). Yeah, I will likely wait for RB to be plentiful in stores, then sell my GH3, and pick it up... actually, as soon as they produce a blue-tooth guitar I'll pick it up (for some reason that dongle makes me as made as the GH3 song prices).
~S
 
I wouldn't hold your breath for a bluetooth guitar, as awesome as that would be. The wireless adapter isn't very obtrusive, anyway.
 
NFL Tour is awful. I downloaded, played it, and deleted it, all in about 10 minutes. I was looking forward to this game too. The gameplay and graphics are terrible. I think EA may be charging too much for this game even at $39.99.
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']I'd actually prefer a Haze demo over a DMC4 demo.[/quote]

Yea seriously. I'd rather know about that since DMC4 being kick-ass status is most likely a given.
 
[quote name='Inf^Shini']Yea seriously. I'd rather know about that since DMC4 being kick-ass status is most likely a given.[/QUOTE]
I have hopes that both games will be awesome. I don't have any worries of DMC4 being awesome, I just want a demo to tide me over until the game comes out. Haze is done by Free Radical so I'm sure it'll be fine.
