It is very enjoyable and with its great visual style incorporating the light versus dark theme and classic feel it would be my pick as one of the best downloadable games on offer through the PSN"

"For the full list of content you know what to do, scroll down for the rundown. This week (and every week from now on actually) I'll be mentioning a few bits of content I think may be of particular interest to you. It's obvious that there are various pockets of different users visiting the store, and it's our job to try and make sure there's a good mixture of content available, so whilst there won't always be something for everyone every week, I think we're offering a very diverse range of content to suit most people's tastes."
"For anybody who finds Veteran difficulty on Modern Warfare 2 far too easy, then you would have probably checked out Operation Flashpoint already and the additional pack Dragon Rising Skirmish releases today adding extra multiplayer maps and FTE missions to test your skills further."
Far to easy...
Don't be so sad. We had Little Mermaid, then last week Lilo & Stitch, and now Peter Pan... Maybe next week we will have Pepsi Man. Isn't that great?

The basic gist of the story involves these alien type fantasy creatures who have taken out most of the galaxy, and have now turned their dark and evil charms on "the blue planet". They defeat everyone by utilising darkness. Just when it looks like everything is about to be consumed in the foes Dark Mist (see what they've done there?), you appear with your gleaming bow of light and magical powers to save the day..."
1 of the most underrated devs in the world right here. Genji 2 and Folklore are both very solid games and very well put together, graphically and thematically.
yeah i used to have folklore, but sold it cos i got stuck. I got genji days of the blade. need to finish that after ninja gaiden sigma. They are good devs, but they need to find a solution to some frame-rate problems that plague their games.
If you are like me, you are jealous that Dark Mist still isnt released to the US PS Store. It made it to the EU PS Store last month, and over a month ago to the Hong Kong store… It has left me wondering "when is it coming to the US Store"?
Bad news… Rumor has it that its not coming to the North America PS Store. Its unfortunate. But USA PSN users dont fret too much. There is a English version of the game in the HK Store… Heres how to get it…
F*CK!
Looks like I gotta get myself a Hong Kong account and a card. :\
Both things are incredibly easy to do if you just read the whole post on PlayStation LifeStyle.
Sev, I got the UK version when it was released a couple weeks ago. I gotta admit it wasn't exactly what I was expecting and I did feel a little let down (but that's probably my own fault)
The game is pretty much an overhead shooter with 3 different weapons, charge attacks and smart bombs. Shoot the bad guys and move onto the next room, shoot more bad guys and maybe a bigger bad guy and move onto the next room until you get to the last room where there's a slightly bigger bad guy (the boss) shoot him and move onto the next level.
I haven't played the game too much only got through to the 3rd stage but I was expecting some sort of rpg elements or something and they're not there at all from what I've seen.
It's ok and it may get better further into the game (the expansion pack with the new characters sounds like it'll add some variety) but as far as I've got it just seems like a pretty (as in looks nice) standard OH shooter.
PSN has awesome original games. I'm very glad they don't try to pull the 360 and Wii routine of HD retro titles.
