can't wait for psn+ whipeout hd
i want joe danger but will wait and see if it goes on offer on psn+
and flower i don't get it or understand whats going on but people say its a good game when i watched the preview on the store it looked like a screen saver :S

[playstation_clan]

so worth the money. I was like, it was either give activision 15 for a bunch of maps or for a new type of game that isn't so much over-rated and wasn't made by a greedy corporation

[despair]

Joe Danger is almost a steal at $15 it has enough content almost for retail release..and its very addictive.

[foss3]

Joe Danger is a lot of fun. A mix between racing and platforming. It's fun and certainly worth the price especially when comparing it to other titles which cost the same.

[T9X69]

What about Pain? Am I the only one who likes that game? lol

[Ahmay]

seems so difficult though to get trophies on that game.....

[Elimin8]

But I H8 it!!!!!

My 2cents

[foss3]

It's OK. It would be a lot better if you didn't have to pay for every little add-on.

The base game doesn't offer much in my opinion as the core gameplay is pretty thin and if my memory serves me it only comes with one or two levels. (You have to pay for more).

To me it's a $4.99 game.

[Quagmire]

Man, cant wait for Journey.

[Elimin8]

Gigity Geeegity...

Goo.

[callahan09]

Definitely withdraw echochrome and add PixelJunk Shooter (or Monsters, or Eden, but my favorite is Shooter).

[Ahmay]

in Echochrome is brilliant. i'm glad part 2 will have some color... its hard to play it more than 15 mins. staring at nothing but black and white really hurts my eyes...

[callahan09]

I agree that the concept is brilliant, but I was severely let down by the actual finished product. Sometimes the perspectives aren't intuitive at all, where I feel like I've got myself lined up properly but the game thinks differently, this is most often the case with jumps & falls, where it's difficult to really get used to anticipating what kind of angle is correct to land in the place you want.

Also, the limitations on where you can move the camera could be frustrating. A game where the entire basis for the gameplay is in manipulating your camera angle shouldn't have limitations on where I can move the camera. Sometimes I just couldn't put the camera where it would have been effective, so instead I had to do a lot of round-about traveling through the level to get where it wouldn't let me go before because of camera movement limitations.

My final complaint with the game was in time limits. There's really no legitimate reason to have time limits in the game. All of my other complaints about it would be completely moot if it weren't for the fact that if you don't solve the level in a constrained amount of time you have to completely start over. Just give me as much time as I want to solve it, I honestly can't think of a single reason to design this type of game to have time limits.

I was about to have a hissyfit. If Ecchochrome wasn't on that list, I'd whine and throw a tantrum.

Crisis averted.

PixelJunk Shooter,..

[rekof]

PixelJunk Shooter,..
Pixeljunk eden,..

[Cajun Chicken]

Great list. Seems like I need Joe Danger though.

[The_Hooligan]

I think Fat Princess should be up there on the list. Even though it was mentioned as other great games, but I still believe it should be on the top 5 list. So if I had to remove one of the games on the list it would be Shatter, not because its a bad game or anything. But Fat Princess is just simply awesome and I find it very addictive with its free map updates and everything. Maybe in the future if they make Fat Princess 2, they should make it more like play, create, share genre where you can create your own maps/players and share them.

[remanutd55]

my top 5 psn games
1. Warhawk ( i know its on blu ray disc also but i bought it from psn )

4. Siren Blood Curse
5. Flower

[Ahmay]

is not enough... there is too many great games...

i own 40+ psn games....

[Acquiescence]

Or two. Are Wipeout HD and Wipeout HD Fury different games? And if so then which one should I get?

[Cajun Chicken]

Fury is an expansion pack to 'HD. Get both. If you buy one first, obviously buy Wipeout HD first. Come to think of it I'm not sure if you can get HD separately anymore.

[HolaTarola]

WipeOut HD Fury is a expansion pack for WipeOut HD, adds 8 new tracks, 13 new ship models and 3 new game modes (Eliminator, Detonator, Zone Battle)..

[TheOrion]

Personal preference but I do think Super Stardust HD should be on everyone's purchase list too. Even now its still a good PSN title.

[Focker420]

My favorite by far is Joe Danger. That game is the funnest PSN title I've ever played. They have a good list but I'd replace Shatter with Pain.

[Gambit07]

Joe Danger is so addicting, I love it.

[jemarval]

Superstardust HD.

[despair]

yup great game.

[danielle007]

I have two PSN games. Siren: Blood Curse and Noby Noby Boy. Both are super amazing. Siren is absolutely terrifying, I haven't managed to get far at all in it yet.. & Noby Noby boy is just insane, but it cracks me up. It's simple, and it manages to make me happy. It was a good buy for me.

I tried the demo for Flower, it just was not for me. I need to check some more PSN titles out sometime, though. I just usually try to save my money for the retail releases.
