Am I insane - or did this picture just change?

I thought this game was $30?
NipGrip @ Sep 8th 2008 10:21PM
No, $10, I just grabbed it and got my first trophy. ;)

don't be a pawn and buy this crap...just cause it has trophies doesn't mean everyone has to run and buy this. If you look at it from the perspective that many games (and good ones at that) are coming out which support trophies is it really necessary to get every single one like it's some type of competition.

Joe you are obviously missing the point of Trophies then. they show off "how much of a gamer you are" so of course people are going to buy these cheap games just to get them. i personally love the replay value they add to certain games. like i never would have played Super Stardust HD without trophies because after i beat it, i probably wouldnt play anymore, but ive gotten way more than $10 worth of fun out of it.

no gold trophies... seems like a trend for "small scale" games now...
Phizzy @ Sep 8th 2008 9:05PM
So what do you want, more trophies or less trophies with greater value for each one? I'm certain games are allocated a certain amount of experience to go toward your PS level. Cheaper games get smaller allocations. Just makes sense.

Yay for trophies!!!!! Yay!!!! WOOOHOOO!!!
*Runs off to download the patch!!!*

Andrew is afraid of Warhawk.
McKeyDee @ Sep 8th 2008 9:32PM
Did you say...trophy update?!
*Runs to PS3 and starts patch download.*
Adam @ Sep 8th 2008 10:07PM
Enough of these god damned hidden trophies!!!
If I don't know what it is, how the FUCK am I going to get it? Blindly doing random shit to get a trophy that could very well be a bronze-no-good-worthless POS, is not what I call an "achievement".
FFS developers, STOP IT ALREADY.
Flame @ Sep 8th 2008 11:59PM
The Xbox has being doing that for a while. They have some random achievements i think. I don't mind it. It just makes you dig deeper into the game. Also you don't have to have the trophy. It's there for replay value.

Trophies or not, played demo, didn't like it, not gettin' it.
Phoenix8387 @ Sep 8th 2008 11:15PM
Um... what demo?
maxpontiac @ Sep 8th 2008 11:03PM
The Trophies are out??
Nice. I am now buying this game...
kevin @ Sep 8th 2008 11:36PM
this game sucks so bad. i bought it and its a joke.
UTWarden @ Sep 9th 2008 12:27AM
SWEET, as soon as I pull my ass out of ToD. I'll update it!
ferret @ Sep 9th 2008 1:37AM
brilliant game. totally amazing. and even better now... i'm glad it's getting attention since the original reviews didn't give it a fair shake (mostly due to the insane difficultly, now resolved).
alkeels @ Sep 9th 2008 4:04AM
DOH! - Game not available in the UK :-(
**runs off to cry in the corner**
YAFB @ Sep 9th 2008 8:37AM
So when is this game coming to Europe again?......
Metal_Gear @ Sep 9th 2008 10:41AM
You? Have fun? Yet we have the ability to collect Trophies from playing games so we can compare with our friends in a little friendly competition and you bitch and swear and you attempt to say we are not having fun....?
maxpontiac @ Sep 9th 2008 10:45AM
Question for those who have it...
Is this game worth it?
ferret @ Sep 9th 2008 11:21AM
it's up to you - it's a tactical arcade air shooter... lots of dog fights, lots of base defense, and lots of tactical attacks on very well fortified enemy bases. the controls take some getting used to - left triggers cycle and fire one set of guns (mostly ground attacks), right triggers cycle and fire another set of guns (mostly air to air). plus the right stick is an 8 directional cannon, though this weapon is secondary to your trigger attacks (so while it is technically a dual stick shooter, it's not really). You don't start out with most weapons, and you can upgrade all of them. The mission objectives are very well done - most missions have around 5 objectives, so once you finish one you'll be right onto the next. I highly recommend this game to any interested in this sort of game - it's my favorite PSN game, just slightly edging out SSHD, The Last Guy, and Monsters. If this were in the arcade when I was younger, I'd have went broke.

I wanted to get this game for a while now, to help support the developer. As for the game itself, the controls and button configuration takes some time to get used to but after a while you get the idea.
It is not the easiest game on the PSN so you have to pay attention to what you are doing a little more than most shooters but all in all I can say I enjoy the challenge of the game and at $10 it is worth it if you enjoy a "Time Pilot" style of shooter.
Adam @ Sep 17th 2008 11:16PM
This is single handedly the worst videogame created in the last 5 - 10 years. How this was even allowed to be patched to a just-as-unplayable form is beyond me...
...stay away from this game, unless you have no taste and thus like shat games.
