If the game were a little cheaper than its $10 price tag, I'd say pick it up right away. At this price point, it's on the fence of a definite buy or being for only fans of the genre. Either way, it does provide a great deal of fun for your money".
IronFury at WDT Writes,
"Magic Orbz, or Magic Ball as it's known by Europeans, is a downloadable game off of the Playstation Network that takes a unique spin on the brick breaking puzzle games of old such as Breakout and Arkanoid brought to us by TikGames and Creat Studios.
The game features 3D environments all made for you to destroy. See, unlike the brick breaking games of old, it's not bricks you are breaking, but in fact 3D models of things such as buildings, pirate ships, sharks, octopi, and the list goes on and on".....
...great to play with a friend (preferably a female one), you can put your own music in the background, the only game I strive to get 100% trophies in, constant DLC.
Flaws? Sometimes the online connectivity is slightly laggy at times, and the creativity of levels is sometimes poor. But overall I love this little PSN gem.

Diehard GameFAN writer: The demo for Lunar: Silver Star Harmony, the latest iteration of the first Lunar. From the looks of the translation and screenshots, it appears to more closely ape the Playstation version of the game than the Sega CD version, meaning it's going to be the more user-friendly version. XSEED is promising an expanded story as well as some other perks, including – you guessed it – a version of the game with extra perks like a soundtrack CD, so old-timers as well as new fans will be very interested. I can't really say for sure how the demo is, as I'm learning the horrors of trying to remotely update a PSP in a house that doesn't have Wi-Fi, but thankfully, Alex Lucard has put up his own impressions of the demo. As far as the game is concerned, it releases February 23rd, and it is guaranteed to be well reviewed, with Mark B. and possibly Aileen Coe taking their turns on it.
For those of you not familiar, Magic Orbz presents a fresh spin on classic brick-breaking gameplay, enabling players to bust apart bright, colorful 3D environments, piece by piece. Using realistic physics and a super-high-tech system of object destruction, Magic Orbz is presented in stunning 1080p with Multiplayer Online and in-game live voice communication.

How about some freakn' PSP legacy games for my Go?
I'm not usually one to complain, but less than 200 titles in 3 months when there's such a large library to draw from is a little inexcusable. Especially when they are trying to push the device as being "all digital".
