PlayStation Store Preview – April 24th, 2012: The Walking Dead

The Dead may be Walking, but this update is very much alive and kicking. There’s plenty to download and play this week for the PlayStation 3. The PlayStation Vita? Not so much. But not to worry, we’ve updated our Coming Soon section with a slurry of PlayStation Vita games and more. (Battlefield 3, Dragon's Dogma, LittleBigPlanet 2, Ninja Gaiden 3, PS Vita, PS3, PSP, Ridge Racer, The Walking Dead - Episode 1, Touch My Katamari)

Walking Dead here I come... Can't wait to check this out -Looks like it might be cool.

Huge fan of the TV series so I'll indeed check this out, even though it is based more on the comic book. -from what I hear

Also on a side note- With Battlefield finally coming out with a download only version.. Why??? don't companies optimize it to play smoother from hard drive since technically that could be done -since it's faster to read from the hard drive. -(they could make buying the download version really sweet)

would be able to remove some of the loading screens on start up and going though the menu. -(I mean it's like they don't even give the people who have the disc a reason to get the download other then no more putting in the disc) which clearly is not enough for anyone to run out and get this option. -(they really need to offer more)

Yeah same here.

The show got interested enough to go show an interest in comics again and I've read the entire collection all the way up to the present issue twice!

I like that the game has a cell shaded style, adds that comic book feel!

For anyone that is in love with the shoiw I highly recommend the comics. Amazon has the 6 issue paper books and 12 issue hardovers for super cheap compared to retail. Just be warned! There are DRASTIC differences in the comic compared to the show! Doesn't ruin the show but the comics are a lot different in who lives, who dies, and who even exists!

Other than The Walking Dead, quite a loaded week!

I may try out the Dragon's Dogma demo.
NukaCola  +   395d ago
Oh fo sho man. I think many of use are curious about this game. The demo is something I am looking forward too as I really don't know much outside of the vids I have seen.
DA_SHREDDER  +   395d ago
you may? what's wrong with you? Anyways, It's about time they added a ps2 game worth buying too. Red Faction was freakin awesome, can't say that much about the new direction this gen came out with, but I think it's about time I revisited this old classic.

Pre-purchased THW on Steam just last week. Shame it's episodic but I suppose its something to look forward to.

That is... if its any good.

Back to the Future was good, but not brilliant, but I looked forward to it each month.

Jurassic Park just wasnt as good as I thought.

Heres hoping (since TWD combines the two games) Telltale have learned from mistakes and actually made something decent. From what i've seen, it looks to be a game that'll get 7's/8's :)

Strange thing is though, I cant think of anyone more perfect than Telltale to make these games. I wouldnt be surprised if they make a Men in Black game one day.

The thing I really hate is how short they all are. I got all the trophies and everything on one play through in about 20 minutes each.....
Kran  +   395d ago
Thats kind of an understatement. Each episode of BTTF will take you AT LEAST an hour to get all trophies for even with a video walkthrough.
Soldierone  +   395d ago
I think the last few took some time, the first 3 or so were short. Once you knew what you were doing it was rather fast.

20 minutes or an hour, either way wish they were longer.

HarryMasonHerpderp  +   395d ago
Theres loads of great PSOne games avaiable
Tomb Raider series
Resident Evil series
Final Fantasy series
Crash Bandicoot series
MGS1
silent hill 1
Chrono Cross
Tekken
Spyro series
Syphon Filter series
Soul Reaver
Dino Crisis series
Parasite Eve series

and there just the main ones

Here is a list of the decent PS2 games EU/US:
Primal
Gungrave
God Hand
Maximo series
Red Faction
Harvest Moon
Odin Sphere
Ring Of Red
Persona 3 FES
Shin Megami Tensei Series

Still there is a LOT more that could be available,
the PS2 library is amazing its just a shame we cant play these or PSOne games on the VITA. Its a dumb move from SONY to be honest and one I wish they would sort out,would love to play these games on my VITA especially now we have a second analogue stick to use (was such a pain not having one on the PSP) .

If they added trophies to the PS2/PSone games I'd buy a ton. I still have most of my library but revisiting old games to trophy whore it up would be fun.
Redcrimson101  +   395d ago
I'm so looking forward to red faction!! That game was great back in it's time and was one of my top favorite shooter's!!! I don't know y they put red faction in third person? Now look were the series went.

Anyway, no games for the ps vita? Uh, that's sad.
LostTokens  +   395d ago
I actually am on the same page with Red Faction. I already have it though, meaning so long as it's pretty cheap I might consider it (instead of taking the time and space to hook my PS2 back up).

Not "thrilled," but "mildly joyful" at the prospect at least.

Ninja Gaiden: Sometimes I never understand releasing demos of games that launched months before.
JamieLeeC93  +   395d ago
If the game didn't sell well, then it would be a good idea to release a demo so that people who have never been interested in it could try it out and actually like it.
cruxito  +   395d ago
Im so glad the game didnt sell, Tecmo deserves the worse after what it did to Tomonobu. I can't bring myself to believe DoA5 will be a true Successor of DoA
theEx1Le  +   395d ago
Even DoA is dumbed down. Bad times :(
leemo19  +   395d ago
I hope skype comes tomorrow for vita cause the rumors was it was suppose to come at the end of the month. I may buy the walking dead game cause TV series is awesome. $5.00 a episode isn't bad as long as their long enough with some good gameplay.
Hazmat13  +   395d ago
oh wow Red Faction thats awesome, now all they need is BLACK and my day for non stop PS2 classic is set!
TheLastGuardian  +   395d ago
The Vita has some great games coming soon. I need to hurry up and get one. As far as PSN games coming soon, I'm looking forward to Datura and Papa & Yo.

I just bought a $50 PSN card today and I got 3 months of PS+, the Uncharted 3 Maps & Modes bundle and I've got $11 left over so I'll probably get a $10 game and some avatars. I'm thinking about getting Funky Lab Rat, I've been wanting that game for awhile.
cruxito  +   395d ago
I know what u mean, i got a 50 dllrs n a 20 dllrs just last week, i bought: Journey, Xsolder2, Braid, skullGirls, Angry Birds(not worth) but now ill have to biy another 20 card to get Bejewels3 and DarkStalker3 :|
bahabeast  +   395d ago
i think il buy that battlefield 3 online :)
Drithe  +   395d ago
Agreed.
Emilio_Estevez  +   395d ago
Do it, you should have it already anyway!
Drithe  +   395d ago
Wel, I did have it. But for some reason it ate my disc up of BF3! I kid you not! My ps3 ate my BF BC2 disc as well.

I am going to have to buy a new ps3 as well. Ran out of gigs. lol.
LiViNgLeGaCY  +   395d ago
I was so excited for Pixeljunk 4am since I'm a huge fan of all their games. Then I watched some youtube vids on it, and....yeah, it looks so dumb. :(
