Alright. Upcoming games has been updated, I think. I added a Vita Section with Alien Spidey and Urban Trials and, while I looked around a bit, I couldn't find any confirmed other Vita PSN titles that I could A) assure would be only PSN or could find anything beyond a name for. Still, something for the future.
The Recommended List hasn't been touched in a while, however, so if you guys would like to look through it and nominate games to go on it, I'd be more than happy to put them on. You don't have to format them like I've got in the OP or supply anything beyond the name, but if you would, I would be eternally grateful. Or at least grateful for a few hours or something. I also still need to figure out a way to show off their Non-US Currency prices.

Do you want to add games that are PSN only in certain countries? Because Gravity Rush is PSN only in Europe, even though Japanese games tend to do a lot better in Europe than they do in the US (the main reason why the Yakuza's sell decently). And on the PS3, Warriors Orochi 3 is PSN only in the US.
Otherwise yeah, I'm not sure either. There are quite a few launch PSN titles but after that, it's not entirely clear which ones are PSN exclusive and which ones will show up at retail as well.
Anyway, seeing as I posted this in the Vita thread, I figured I'd post it here too:
When you buy MotorStorm RC you will be able to play it on PS3 and PS Vita at no additional cost.
When you buy Hustle Kings and/or Top Darts for PS Vita, you will get the PS3 versions for free. If you already own these games on PS3, you’ll be able to download the PS Vita version for free.
If you purchase WipEout 2048 and you already own WipEout HD and the HD Fury DLC on PS3, you will be able to download them for free when they launch on PS Vita later this spring.
DLC purchased for the PS3 version of Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 can be used on the PS Vita version for free (and vice versa).

Uhm, yeah, we could probably do some games that are PSN only in certain territories.
Also, that news about WO3 just killed my night. Fucking KOEI.

It's probably SCEA's fault, as they're not fully translating it to English (Japanese voice acting, English text/subtitles). It makes sense that they'd let the Yakuza's pass because they're exclusives but hold up a multiplatform game like WO3. Still stupid though, as it gifts the 360 a retail exclusive.

Eh, I imagine KOEI could've done something, but it doesn't really matter. Europe's getting a Disk version right? Because I guess I can just import it since there's absolutely no way I can download full-size PS3 games on my shit connection. Regardless, that's neither here nor there.
To bring things back on topic, I put in Gravity Rush in the Vita section of "Things to Look For" with a note that it is exclusive to PSN in PAL land. Last I heard, the rumored release date was in May, so I used that but if anyone's heard otherwise, let me know!

Yeah, we're getting a disc version. You won't be able to download any DLC but it's not like anyone really cares about DW7 DLC anyway (hell, they don't even bother to release it on the NZ store).
The upcoming list looks good to me. Only nitpick I could make is that the Munch's Oddysee pics come from Stranger's Wrath but they haven't released any images from it anyway, so it's not a big deal. And May is what I've heard of for Gravity Rush as well. Sony are trying to spread their Vita releases out a bit, so it was sadly delayed.

Oh, whoops. I got them from an article that was talking about both games, I think, and I just figured they were for Munch's Oddysee. Oh well, when we get images for the game, I'll switch it out. Thanks for giving it a look over!
Motorstorm Arctic Edge is awesome. (Possibly the best racing game I've played on the PSP)
Klonoa is awesome. (Duh, I played the Wii remake as well.)
Twisted Metal: Head-On is...meh.
Maybe it needs more time to grow on me, but it just feels very unfinished and very amateur in design.

If you decide to grab Arctic Edge do keep in mind it's in a two-pack with Twisted Metal for $14.99.
Motorstorm by itself is $19.99, so even if you don't want Twisted Metal it's cheaper getting both of them.
Amnesia: The Dark Descent will never be ported to the PSN correct?
I would highly highly doubt it. Made by an indie studio who exclusively works on PC games (s'far as I know) and I doubt they would (or could) hand it to another studio to port it. It's unfortunate, but them's the breaks.
Bought Klonoa last night. Noticed the emulator now has a built-in screenshot feature.
What an odd thing to add in at the end of the PSP's lifespan. I wonder how long that's been going on.
Seeing as they port the emulator between all their systems, I'd guess that they needed to add the hooks for the Vita's universal screenshot function and just decided to release it on PSP (and probably PS3) because they could.
And yeah, from what I can tell, Twisted Metal Head-On was developed by a B-team, so it makes sense that there wasn't a ton of effort put into it. Wikipedia credits it to Jaffe but seeing as he was working on God of War at the time, it's obviously just referring to the PS2 port (which Jaffe did have some involvement in).

OH. MY. GOD. OHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGOD. You guys. You must play this. It's a zero-budget totally incompetent FPS, but the main character's nasally office drone voiceover is genuinely hilarious.
"I wonder what's so important on the maintainance floor that requires this many armed thugs. Maybe they've all come to complain about the broken lift."
"Good idea: Collecting ammunition. Bad idea: Collecting ammunition moving at 300 metres a second. I need a medkit."
"Thinking about it, leaking this much blood is probably violating some kind of health and safety regulation."

you get Farcry 2 free right off the bat, so thats pretty nice already. it seems to me that if you buy stuff off the store with any regularity it will pay for itself before too long.

The successful Squad Leader effectively uses cover in the environment and moves his fire teams in a coordinated fashion so they can protect themselves from possible attacks that could come from any direction. Full Spectrum Warrior puts you in the dirt with your men, where danger lurks around every corner.
For some reason, it seems like not all of the rest of the launch games have been mentioned in this drop post. Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus or whatever it's called is missing, which is likely an oversight, but, it seems like more than that. Aside from that, some of the titles lack mention of the (PSN/Game Card) thing. I guess we'll see if that means anything Tuesday.
They're always a little off when it comes to the drop. Either they forget to mention something, or they accidentally mention something that isn't coming out after all. I wouldn't read anything into anything.
So I'm looking for some more PSP games. I had a blast on Phantasy Star Online years ago, so I thought I'd see how much Phantasy Star Portable 2 is on Amazon. Minimum $40, up to $75(!).
Wikipedia says it's available on PSN. I don't recall seeing it last time I was skimming the store. Is it on there?

It was there at the game's launch but it was removed a few months back for some reason.

The official line from Sega regarding Phantasy Star Portable 2 going missing from PSN is that it was mistakenly removed and they are working to get it back up on PSN. They've been saying this for a few months.
Sure is taking a damn long while for that update. I want to see what they're offering (if anything) in terms of PSP sales, and I was thinking of saving some Vita demos on the PS3 in order to easily transfer them to the Vita tomorrow.
It's a good thing the fanbase is so patient and mature about these sort of things. Yep.

Friggin' finally. For some reason, no Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus, which I imagine is Tecmo-KOEI's screw-up, since they probably 'moved' the release date to launch without submitting the game early enough for it to actually be released on launch. But eh. As you can see, the AR games are finally here and free, as well as a few of the Apps we were promised for launch window, so I imagine the rest will be forth-coming soon.
Also since Vanilla doesn't like Quotes within quotes anymore and by extension, I don't like Vanilla anymore, I'm retooling the OP to have separate quotes which is about as unnecessary as you might think and doesn't take a lot of work, but I'm -really- grumpy now and that didn't help.
Edit: Actually that looks nicer. Color me surprised.
Uncharted 1? I don't understand what's being sold here for 79cents
The Vita bit should've given you a clue. :P
The bug was fixed a while ago anyway sadly. This isn't the first time SCEE have screwed up, so it's worth paying attention. I ended up getting a free copy of GTA VCS thanks to their screw ups.

I keep getting this while trying to download the latest Disgaea 4 patch, and can't find any info on what it means or how to fix it. Help?
Do you want to add games that are PSN only in certain countries? Because Gravity Rush is PSN only in Europe, even though Japanese games tend to do a lot better in Europe than they do in the US (the main reason why the Yakuza's sell decently). And on the PS3, Warriors Orochi 3 is PSN only in the US.

I'm very curious to see what, if any, PSP specials will go up tonight.
I really want NA to get the Final Fantasy discount sale that EU got. I want to have a digital version of Dissidia 012 ready for the Vita.

It's a good thing the fanbase is so patient and mature about these sort of things. Yep.

Friggin' finally. For some reason, no Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus, which I imagine is Tecmo-KOEI's screw-up, since they probably 'moved' the release date to launch without submitting the game early enough for it to actually be released on launch. But eh. As you can see, the AR games are finally here and free, as well as a few of the Apps we were promised for launch window, so I imagine the rest will be forth-coming soon.
Also since Vanilla doesn't like Quotes within quotes anymore and by extension, I don't like Vanilla anymore, I'm retooling the OP to have separate quotes which is about as unnecessary as you might think and doesn't take a lot of work, but I'm -really- grumpy now and that didn't help.
Edit: Actually that looks nicer. Color me surprised.
The Vita bit should've given you a clue. :P
The bug was fixed a while ago anyway sadly. This isn't the first time SCEE have screwed up, so it's worth paying attention. I ended up getting a free copy of GTA VCS thanks to their screw ups.
