PlayStation Store Preview – December 18th, 2012: It’s an Oddworld After All

Even though there aren’t any more significant retail releases left in 2012, that doesn’t mean that there isn’t a packed digital release line-up left in store. This week is loaded with PSN releases and demos for both the PS3 and PS Vita. But best of all, Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath is hitting the PlayStation Vita this week. Don’t forget, you can stock up on the year’s best games in the Holiday Essentials Sale starting this week.

Another good week. PS Store's been on fire lately.

Godchild10204145d ago (Edited 4145d ago )

Yes, it has. Just in case anyone wants to take advantage of LBP and Rayman on Tuesday, but are worried about it coming to plus, this is what Morgan Haro had to say about it.

"While some updates to the PS Vita Plus free games is coming shortly; there are some great deals on some PS Vita content with the Holiday Sale like LBP Vita and Rayman Origins. Those games are not slated to be free in Plus for PS Vita in the near future, so it may not be a bad idea to jump on those deals!"

Nothing worse than thinking your getting a great deal on a game and then seeing it free the next week. I'd be surprised if Rayman Origins ever becomes free on the Vita unless a new Rayman game were on the horizon for it. In fact I can't think of a single Ubisoft game that's been released on Plus. And LBP just released not too long ago, and will probably be at least 6+ months before it's considered.

Y_51504144d ago

Yes I accidently bought 3 extra copies of LBP ViTA. It was a good deal though. :P

insomnium24144d ago

I keep shaking my head in disbelief. How CAN they keep giving us games on PS+ like this? It seems I will be a lifetime member. I would be insane not to be.

I keep selling the games I already have that they add to + so my subscription is already paid for the first year after a month. SMH Sony... You treat us waaaay too good.

Yeah, always new stuff to check out. I don't think they've had a slow week all winter.

showtimefolks4145d ago

maybe i will pick up resident evil 4 HD(wish it was on disk)

and rayman origins

Bowzabub4144d ago

You forgot LBP2 X-Controller DLC.

Cam9774144d ago

It's a shame that can't be said for the UK Ps Store thanks to the outrageously incompetent SCEE. We have the "12 days of Christmas" and a "Festive Sale" but that's all, and, the discounts haven't been as good as last year.

Stranger's Wrath for me! Love that game. Can't wait to play again on Vita.

Dir_en_grey4145d ago

I wish it was cross buy...
I'll mainly play it on Vita but still wish for the PS3 version though.

Obnoxious_Informer4145d ago

The Unfinished Swan is probably the best standalone PSN exclusive this year, I highly advise anyone who hasn't checked it out to download the demo, you'll love it.

doogiebear4144d ago (Edited 4144d ago )

I own journey. And I don't think it's so special. And btw, I actually love artsy, emotional games like Flower...

I'm entitled to my own opinion.

BitbyDeath4145d ago

I'm waiting for it to come on sale in 12 deals of Christmas, should be out in the next day or two :-)

wastedcells4145d ago

Nice did they confirm that for north America or is it only in Europe.

BitbyDeath4145d ago

Probably Europe only as the other Christmas deals have been.

eg. http://blog.eu.playstation....

I think it was said to be deal number 10 and we are already at #9.

Most games have had around 50-60% off so should be pretty cheap.

MariaHelFutura4145d ago

Nice. I'm buying Rayman Origins and Resident Evil 4.

MultiConsoleGamer4145d ago

Already played Strangers Wrath many years ago. I feel bad for brand loyal fanboys who only own one console.

isarai4145d ago

I played it many years ago aswell, still buying it though because it has updated HD visuals and texture work and it's on a handheld which means i can play it anywhere.

violents4144d ago

who says people who only own one console are brand loyal fanboys. Perhaps they just arent a spoiled child like you and can't afford multiple systems. And frankly what does this have to do with anything in this comment section?

Xbox 360/PS3 Ports That Would Be Great on Nintendo Switch

Here's a list of Xbox 360/PS3 games that would be great on the Nintendo Switch (at a modest, reasonable price of course). These games could really flourish if given a new lease on life, introducing a new generation to their greatness.

I'm sure R* knows the Nintendo Switch install base and probably dont really care to port over more R* games to the Nintendo Switch tho i gotta say playing GTA4 & RDR1 on the go on the Nintendo Switch would be dope

Knightofelemia651d ago

I would buy Lollipop Chainsaw, Alice Madness Returns, Enslaved, Splatter House, Brutal Legends, Dante's Inferno, and Dead Space for sure if they were ported to the Switch.

Mobis-New-Nest651d ago

Deus Ex Human Revolution would be a great title to The Holy Grail of All Consoles aka The Nintendo Switch*. Also Haze Remastered, Grand Theft Auto 4 and 5 Remastered, Silent Hill HD Collection, Max Payne 3 Remastered, Call of Duty World At War Remastered, The Orange Box Remastered, Halo Master Chief Collection, Left 4 Dead 1 and 2 Remastered, Metal Gear Solid 4 Remastered, Afro Samurai Remastered, Demons Souls Remastered, Xmen Destiny Remastered, Jack and Daxter Collection, Def Jam Icon Remake, Folklore Remastered, Spiderman Edge of Time Remastered, Persona 5 remastered, the list goes on. (*Best Selling Console of All Time)

MontyeKristo651d ago (Edited 651d ago )

Can we just get a Bully 2? 😒

iplay1up2651d ago

Seriously? Isn't it time Nintendo make a Switch successor? I mean they have the sales and money.

Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath HD: PS 5 Gameplay

Garethvk:

Here is a look at the new HD version of the game played on a PS5. I am not a fan of the camera system which makes viewing in third person harder than it should be but the game looks great otherwise.

Yi-Long800d ago

I liked the game back when it was released, especially the squirrel-gun of course (were they squirrels? Not sure) and the other weapons, and some fun enemies. A genuinely original game, but I doubt I’ll bother with the remaster. When you look at the textures they really feel low-res and outdated.

Garethvk799d ago

The camera was horrible 3rd person.

JL2930799d ago

Tried it on the Vita back in the day. Sucks.

Garethvk799d ago

Some are really good. This is a remaster and aside from the camera issues, its ok.

NecrumOddBoy799d ago

Oddworld Abe’s Oddysee and Exoddus on PS1/PC are 10/10 phenomenal. Munch’s Oddysee is a 7, Stranger is a 6, New and Tasty is also a 6, and SoulStorm is sadly a 3. I’m a massive Oddworld fan and I have been incredibly disappointed with the series after the original two titles.
