Sorry for not posting in the thread yesterday, but as we're all aware, it was....a bit late. I decided it was a better time investment to check out some MST3K on Netflix than wait on it. Regardless, I should give an idea of what went up.

Couple things worth mentioning here. Apparently the Escape Plan demo might just be borked currently. A lot of people are just plain unable to load it up as it error's right off, so maybe give it a bit before checking it out. Also, as I'm sure many people are aware, Gungnir isn't Vita-compatible. It's being worked on. It'll happen. Aside from that, if you're looking for something to play on your Vita whilst waiting for Gungnir, there -is- Gravity Rush which is fantastic by all means as well as the HD Collection of MGS too. But like I said in Drop post, there's no Peace Walker to be found, so be aware.

Top Darts, Hustle Kings and Motorstorm RC are all PS3/Vita bundle games, so if you buy one you get the other free. And I'd REALLY recommend Motorstorm RC, it's amazing. Mutant Blobs Attack and the two Everybody's Golf games (Hot Shots Golf for Americans) are pretty great as well.

every time a new full game goes up i get excited about the prospect of getting it free through ps+ whenever they update the free game stuff. also unless im really really excited about a psn game, ps+ is training me not to buy anything because sooner or later it will be really cheap or free.
I'm positive last month had something new every week...
Sales tend to have an extra discount for PSN+ users, so you're probably thinking of that. Plus some new games get 20% off for the first week. The majority of PSN+ content only changes once a month though.
I'm posting this here because, if it DOES come to English-speaking countries, it will likely be on PSN and not on-disc, due to it not being a "collection".
Seeing as the localisation is already long done and it's Capcom, I think we can assume it'll get NA/PAL releases. Last I remember, SCEA doesn't let publishers release HD re-releases individually at retail (which is what stopped Konami from packaging Peace Walker HD separately outside Japan) so yeah, a PSN is the only way it'll come out unless they announce some other games package it in with (Viewtiful Joe 1 and 2 HD?). I'm looking forward to it, which is something I can't really say for any of Capcom's other upcoming releases.
Anyway, I've posted this in the Vita thread but I figure I'll post it here too. Here's the second week of SCEE's Vita game sale:
Army Corps from Hell
Was €39.99/£34.99 – Now €26.99/£21.99
Blazblue Continuum Shift Extend
Was €39.99/£34.99 – Now €26.99/£21.99

Modnation Racers: Road Trip
Was €14.99/£11.99 – Now €10.99/£8.99
Rayman Origins
Was €34.99/£29.99 – Now €24.99/£19.99
Reality Fighters
Was €14.99/£11.99 – Now €10.99/£8.99
Shinobido 2: Revenge of Zen

There's some talk of Infamous 2... the game looks pretty good, but I'm finding the new VA for Cole really distracting. It's a shame they couldn't get the original VA back.
Yeah that really bugged me but he's slowly growing on me. Moya seems to have vanished too, absolutely no mention of her so far despite her threatening Cole in the first game.

So, two things. First off, I've heard rumblings that the version of Lego Batman 2 for Vita might be a little less featured than it ought to be, but I don't know that for sure. If someone could let me know? Secondly, I feel like I would get people angry if I didn't point out Tomba! at least once aside from the breakdown. So, Tomba! Tomba!.
Yeah that really bugged me but he's slowly growing on me. Moya seems to have vanished too, absolutely no mention of her so far despite her threatening Cole in the first game.
Also fuck the lack of a new game.
Looking at the wikipedias and whatnot, it looks like they got the new guy because he was willing to also do mocap work (and possibly because they wanted someone with a less gravelly voice)
but I liked the gravel voice
As far as Moya, apparently there was a 6-issue comic run between Infamous 1 in which Moya appears.
Between the PS+ freebies, Jet Set Radio HD, a new straight to PSN Ratchet game, and now Okami HD, ... I'm going to have to buy another HDD.
This Okami announcement, and all the other thread about the Summer of Arcade has got me wondering, what other significant PSN releases do we have coming up? I know we're getting Tony Hawk, and the other games I mentioned.

The Unfinished Swan, Tokyo Jungle, Papo & Yo, Guacamelee, Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath, Dyad and Retro/Grade come to mind and those are just the exclusives (and ones I can remember). Multiplatform, I'm really looking forward to Quantum Conundrum.
Awesome news Renzo. The PS2 footage in that video is complete bullshit though.

Yeah, sometimes I forget that QC is going to be a downloadable game. Papo & Yo and Guacamelee look right up my alley. Tokyo Jungle definitely has me intrigued. The Unfinished Swan though, ... I have a feeling it's going to be something very pretty to look at, but not really interesting to play. So I think it's gonna be real popular here.
Yeah the PS2 blurriness is exaggerated, but whatever. I don't need a comparison to know I want to play Okami again in HD.
They did the same to their side-by-side comparisons of RE4. They're such liars.

I am super pumped to play Okami again when it comes out. I remember that I got all 100 stray beads in my first play through of it haha. Plus it will be $20 so that is pretty awesome as well.
Is the PlayStation store down for anyone else? I couldn't sign in first, went straight to access the store and managed to log into Psn but errored out whilst starting PS store.
Edit: confirmed down. Unplanned maintenance apparently. I was panicking when I got the error telling me my password was incorrect.

Yeah it's a great game, really cool to see people getting it for free as well.
I want to know more PA people on Twitter.
Top Darts, Hustle Kings and Motorstorm RC are all PS3/Vita bundle games, so if you buy one you get the other free. And I'd REALLY recommend Motorstorm RC, it's amazing. Mutant Blobs Attack and the two Everybody's Golf games (Hot Shots Golf for Americans) are pretty great as well.
Tomba! Also other things.
If you don't I will be very upset with you.

I loved that game. Bought in a second.
On my second month and the first month had new sales and games all the time. Since E3 it was just the one update then nothing.
The free game list is great and all but where the sales at?
My Let's Play Channel: https://youtube.com/channel/UC2go70QLfwGq-hW4nvUqmog
And Sales change Bi-Weekly.

Ooo, that would be cool. I have a japanese psn account that I barely use. It would be cool to know when new demos come out.
If you'd be able to do highlights reliably each update, I can try to make space in the OP for them.
