Everybody's arcade is NOT free. You get to play one of the games as a trial version for 10 minutes. The games each cost around £2.50 each in this selection. I've got to say what a stupid move this is from Sony. £2.50? Christ, don't they realise how much more money they would make if they'd released them for £1.00 each? Sometimes, Sony... just sometimes.

Overall, a nice selection of games to begin with though. I just thought that Sony would want to kick this off with a great value packed game of their own. Klondike for £2.50... come now.

But don't let my little gripe put you off. Many Vita owners over at Neogaf are whooping with joy at this very moment.

Yeah that probably should have been cheaper for the minigames in Everybody's arcade.

anyways, good that this has finally launched.

PSMobile needs apps. PSminis are cool, but vital apps would be better.

Muffins12234981d ago

First of all,they give some of the money to the developer and a few taxes add to it.....so 1 dollar for sony and 1 dollar for super crate box..

Is this just for the U.S? I was hoping for a simultaneous global rollout :(

sinncross4982d ago

Well we will only know when EU store is updated tomorrow.

Either way, probably best that they finally got this launched somewhere at least. Its taken longer than I thought it would.

Whats the difference between this and PS Minis?
(Serious question, bc i dont know ... ive never played the minis)

MySwordIsHeavenly4982d ago

Honestly, I don't know...

A couple of these actually ARE minis. :/

Minis do, however, run on their own emulator, I believe. That's what it seems like when I boot them up on the PS3 and/or Vita. (Sort of like PS1 games)

These probably have full touch and gyro functionalities, unlike the minis.

Burning_Finger4982d ago

It's for compatible mobile device like androids. It lets you download the apps and play Playstation mini like games,

Sithlord-Gamble4982d ago (Edited 4982d ago )

Thx guys. I appreciate it.
I bubble + both of u.

jujubee884982d ago

Mini's also tend to average out around $4.99 and these cost about a fraction of that with the current lowest game being 49 cents.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle25d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

Probably down to the high cost of gaming. Controllers and racing wheels can cost as much as consoles.

Reaper22_40d ago

This is why there will always be competition in gaming. The possibilities to make huge profits is just too enticing.
