PixelJunk Monsters version 2.00 patch now live

by Jem Alexander { Oct 30th 2008 at 2:30PM }

As if we don't have enough games to play already right now. The PixelJunk Monsters trophy patch is now live and ready to download. The trophy implementation is a little different to what you've seen in other games. You'll need to complete special Trophy Challenge levels in order to get your grubby mitts on them. The patch also adds new difficulty levels to the game as well as YouTube uploading. All for free and all ready for you to grab right now. If you live in Europe, that is. No doubt the patch will hit the US before the end of the day. We'll keep you updated.

[Thanks to everyone who sent this in]

How big is the file size?

Jerses @ Oct 30th 2008 2:38PM

:P the game is 30mb. I dont think its worth knowing the file size.

Is anyone with an ID lvl. 7 or 8 out there? How much exp.% does bronze give you?

Also...does anyone knows how much exp do you need to level up (lol i love this trophies but i dont understand them)

shamus @ Oct 30th 2008 2:48PM

A bronze gives you 2%, a gold is 5%, I'm not sure what a silver gives you.

Darkage @ Oct 30th 2008 5:16PM

63mb.

supersickie @ Oct 30th 2008 3:01PM

Don't forget custom soundtracks too. Hopefully, I'll get my Encore voucher soon. I bought Eden almost three weeks ago and still haven't gotten anything. Anyone else in the same boat?

rgoff31 @ Oct 30th 2008 3:19PM

I've had it since it came out, I haven't won any yet.
The trophies are very hard to get, just like PAIN.

maroofh @ Oct 30th 2008 3:07PM

how do you do screenshots on ps3? is it only on specific games?

Jerses @ Oct 30th 2008 3:18PM

No game support it and maybe untill next year it will. maybe it will be like Mainichi Issyo (japan store game?). When you press "select" you can take a low res screen shot. Its really nice but i hope this screenshot function will give you at least 720p of screencaps. oh! and metal gear have the camara that also give you low res pics.

Ted @ Oct 30th 2008 3:28PM

Might download later, I I can peel myself away from the LBP Create Mode!

CrashSpyro123 @ Oct 30th 2008 3:45PM

Damn Bait-and-Switch article titles. Really thought it was out now, but there's no patch to download yet in the US.

AbSoLuTiOn @ Oct 30th 2008 3:47PM

I loaded up Monsters and now thing came up to download a patch, anyone know why?

sirpilf @ Oct 30th 2008 4:24PM

im wondering the same... i loaded it up and got nothing about a patch... and i AM connected to PSN.

Spider-Prime @ Oct 30th 2008 4:25PM

That's cause it's not out yet in the USA/North America, this is just for europe, we should get it soon, usually around 6pm eastern.

AbSoLuTiOn @ Oct 30th 2008 7:26PM

I live in the UK, i still haven't got it.

silverfox840 @ Oct 30th 2008 4:41PM

Ahh I hope we get it soon........... I want to start on those trophies!

Hostile @ Oct 30th 2008 4:42PM

That would have been misleading if I didn't read the whole post. Who cares about Europe!?

Darkage @ Oct 30th 2008 4:46PM

Europe.

Ashley Mazillius @ Oct 30th 2008 4:57PM

What sort of a question is that???

Europe has over 700 million people living here, USA and Canada... just the 350 million. I think you're slightly outnumbered!

Kspraydad @ Oct 30th 2008 7:34PM

Um...Ashley...I think most Canadians might want to side with the Motherland instead of being lumped in with the USofA.

+whocares = owned.

who cares @ Oct 30th 2008 5:11PM

China has over 1 Billion people. Who cares?
Also i hate to burst your bubble but Europe does not have that type of population.

http://geography.about.com/cs/worldpopulation/a/mostpopulous.htm
So unless in a year and a half europe gained 700k residents by some massive chemaical duplication in the water your answer is way off.

evelez84 @ Oct 30th 2008 5:51PM

I think Ashley is correct about the population in the entire European continent is over 700 million. According to the estimates in this wiki page. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europe

Windmill @ Oct 30th 2008 5:45PM

Are you actually attempting to compare Europe to China in terms of video game markets?

No wonder people around the world don't like Americans when we see people like you who are so damn obsessed with America that you arrogantly place yourselves ABOVE the rest of the world. We can't help but grow resentful. Who cares about Europe? Who cares about Australia? New Zealand? The Middle East? No, of course not, of course they are nothing compared to AMERICA! The land of the BRAVE! Home of the FREE! No country could DARE surpass America in ANY form at all. Let us worship our flag some more.

Once again with you show your ignorance of the outside world. Europe was estimated to have 728 million in 2005 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Europe and I have no idea how you got a number of 699.3 million people, but wow, 700,000 less people off of 700 milliion? Why, *what a gross error that was*.

Windmill @ Oct 30th 2008 5:48PM

Jacksons @ Oct 30th 2008 10:04PM

Europe. Not the UK.

why not the LS2LS7? @ Oct 31st 2008 2:51AM

Yeah, in that count, there are 142M people in Russia, 50M (or something) in Ukraine, 15M in Kazakhstan (Kazakhstan touches China!, how's that in Europe?) and 70M in Turkey that I frankly I wouldn't count as Europe. Americans also (for some reason) typically don't count Scandinavia as part of Europe either, but that's just an American quirk and pretty tough to defend.

rogXue @ Oct 30th 2008 6:10PM

Stupid Europe, you always get things first!

btw total sarcasm on the above comment. Enjoy your win Europe. ;)

Hostile @ Oct 30th 2008 7:22PM

I was being sarcastic fools.

The Aggie CEO @ Oct 30th 2008 9:05PM

damn.........

still not out in NA yet..........

what gives??

Nate L. @ Oct 30th 2008 10:32PM

Well the US Store has updated, but PJM isn't prompting me to update. Anyone have an idea when that will be?

rgoff31 @ Oct 30th 2008 10:33PM

EUROPE

Spider-Prime @ Oct 30th 2008 11:50PM

STILL.... WAITING....! *brain explodes*

linebeginstoblur @ Oct 31st 2008 1:04AM

US East Coast. It's past 1 AM, the day after. No patch. I'm sad. :(

warlock7 @ Oct 31st 2008 1:10AM

Me too!!! :(

aka @ Oct 31st 2008 1:49AM

i delete the game and download from the store with trophies...

Jeff H. @ Oct 31st 2008 2:14AM

Verified out in US, I just redownloaded PJM from my downloads list in the playstation store and now I have 2.0 with trophies.

Chris @ Oct 31st 2008 1:37PM

The update is now available when you start the game.

Jason @ Nov 3rd 2008 5:04PM

I started up monsters today and it wanted me to install the patch. It just restarted my system, then I couldn't even play the game, just kept asking for the patch. I read on here someone said they'd just reinstall so I tried that. It wouldn't let me play and wanted the patch again. So I deleted the game, reinstalled and at this point it wouldn't even show the game. I then did the quick format restore and tried it again and still can't see any trace of the game other than in the 'game data utility' folder and that doesn't do anything for me. Same thing is happening after format to other games I previously downloaded.

Any suggestions? I'm doing the full restore now. It's a 40 GB ps3 and it's about to find it's way to ebay. :(

ben ho @ Dec 13th 2008 10:02PM

just wondering.. is the patch up for the Asian version (HK/Singapore)?? did anyone manage to install it?? i have been trying by starting the game n deleting it and re-download from the Store, but still no trophies...
