nah todays' update looks kinda not worth it lolz i already played Valkyria Chronicles and i dont like Penny Arcade , guess gona wait for the psp PSN store update then

Lars @ Oct 23rd 2008 7:29PM

I agree, except the RB DLC is awesome!

Meh, I might snag PoP too... that was a fun game when I was a kid.

Emophia @ Oct 24th 2008 5:02AM

Where's the demos for Prince of Pesia and Penny Arcade?

360 versions had demos...

mint400 @ Oct 24th 2008 8:49AM

if i had a chance to try out PoP, i wouldn't have bought it. i was hoping for a beefed up 2d (like sfII HD rmx) version not a ps2-3d-graphics version with 2d gameplay. next time i'll do my research.

LOL.

i saw what you did there.

mewoks @ Oct 23rd 2008 6:46PM

"5x Mega Man 9 themes...." OMG YEAAA AWESO....
"...premium, $1.99 each" .............dammit.

Also, "inferior clone" and "GH: World Bore" made me realize that PS3fanboy has good taste in music games.

Daytonboy @ Oct 23rd 2008 6:49PM

Why can I not see these in the PS3 store?

chililili @ Oct 23rd 2008 6:54PM

yeah i can't too

wocyob @ Oct 23rd 2008 6:59PM

same

Radek @ Oct 23rd 2008 7:10PM

New Releases section gets updated last. Just go to "View all by title" and then the letter of the game you want.

Brad @ Oct 29th 2008 6:05PM

Why don't you like Guitar Hero? I mean, yeah the 'clone' part I guess is accurate, but you couldn't have expected them not to add drums after rock band..

wocyob @ Oct 23rd 2008 6:59PM

all i see is yoda DLC

Daytonboy @ Oct 23rd 2008 7:01PM

Same here

pogue2012 @ Oct 24th 2008 4:01PM

Yeah......No.

Next :)

Erratic @ Oct 23rd 2008 7:06PM

This might be something to put up under news, found it on another forum:

Sony is offering a $150 card credit on any $299 purchase if you are approved for a Sony Credit Card.

Use it on a Playstation 3 console to get it for $249.99 shipped.

They've had that deal for well over a year now and I do mention it here every couple of months.

Radek @ Oct 23rd 2008 7:09PM

Downloading Penny Arcade right now but what happened to Soldner X? I've been waiting for this title for 3 weeks now.

wocyob @ Oct 23rd 2008 7:13PM

TXCrowe @ Oct 23rd 2008 7:18PM

Still nothing but yoda here, central time 618 pm

Radek @ Oct 23rd 2008 7:19PM

wocyob

Go into view all titles and they will be there. The games get listed in the New Release section last but get put into their respected alphabetical sections earlier.

NwrksBigBoss @ Oct 23rd 2008 7:10PM

Stafford @ Oct 23rd 2008 7:28PM

World Bore? Inferior Clone?

Which came first, Jem. And who left the GH camp to make a pissant clone of GH but with extra plastic, and now who has refined that clone? Prick.

Ur a funny cunt, aint ya?! On no, wait...your not.

TXCrowe @ Oct 23rd 2008 7:44PM

GH came first.

Who left the GH camp?

ALL THE DEVS THAT MADE THE FARKING GAME.

Who has a better setlist On Disc?
RB - THE ORIGINAL PEOPLE WHO MADE GH

Who has better DL Content? RB- HARMONIX CREW- Who did what? MADE GH

Who wins? RB
Who Epic Fails? YOU

lorddshadow @ Oct 23rd 2008 7:44PM

dang leave him alone! he has an opinion, so what? he has the right to state it cause he writes for the blog!

mewoks @ Oct 23rd 2008 7:49PM

All the HMX games have been better than the Neversoft/Acti games.

GH 1 and GH 2 were better than GH3 and GH:A
RB 1 and RB 2 are better than GH3 and GH:A
So far the pattern is holding up in HMX's favor.

From what I've seen on youtube, RB1 and RB2 are still better than GH:WT.

Search your feelings...Guitar Hero is no longer king. Rock Band is far superior. You know it to be true.

j.howlett @ Oct 23rd 2008 10:38PM

well konami had the first guitar game i ever saw, guitar freaks i think, and you see how people are taking to their latest offering.

The_Punisher (MR ESC NOOOOO) @ Oct 23rd 2008 7:29PM

Nothing for me on this update, not evne live, no R2 beta code.

You guys SUCK!

(also GHWB made me laugh xD)

H2Os @ Oct 23rd 2008 7:34PM

Extremely disappointed that there doesn't seem to be a PSP store update, they just released it and already they are skipping it.

Darlaten @ Oct 23rd 2008 7:45PM

Quite frankly - this is horrible update for those with a PSP. Sony, did you forget that you just gave us access to the wifi store - how about putting something in it each week :)

Mind you, I also think its funny to release Guitar Hero World Tour material when the game isnt released yet in Canada (it comes out next week). Oh well, poor update all around - typical of Sony.
