Actually I agree with Kreeeee on this one, your unquestioned devotion to the PS3 is rather sweet.

Destruction Derby for the PSP and a Full Auto 2 demo.

Just played Full auto and I have to say I'm not impressed. Looking forward to playing DD on the PSP though

Hi,

How does this update thing work? On my PSP each firmware update added some functionality to the unit. This update you describe seems to be content on the Playstation store. I was under the impression this was just like a PS3 formatted website. Why do they do firmware updates when there is new content available or have I got the wrong end of the stick?

There asn't a firmwae update released. People heard about an update coming, but it was just content to the store, which is, as you say, just a web site. no update was needed for the content.
But people hear PS3 update and assume its a firmware.

Does that make sense? its kinda late lol

next BIG firmware update is March and I must say it's the one I'm looking forward to as it will fix a lot of issues.

Any one else looking forward to flOw? I can't wait for this game, as I usually only get on my consoles at night and then if I have had a stressfull day I usually feel a bit tired and need to relax, which makes any games which take some concentration and effort a bit of a chore. This looks like it's something good to play and **** out to

ic1male · 17 Feb 2007 at 20:28

Not sure about flOw. It looks like one of those games that could go on for hours. How do you get killed in it?

JUMPURS · 17 Feb 2007 at 23:13

Dunno about flow, i will think about getting it.

I just ordered VF5 though

Edit Just seen 1up have gave it a 9.5 :eek:

i think it's a structure game, you build your bodies structure depending on the what you "flow" through, and i'm guessing you lose structure if you hit something you shouldnt. but I don't think there's any death or finality.

SCEE has announced that all their first-party games will be priced at £40 RRP. So much for PS3 games being more expensive...

Even though this is just a guess - I wonder if this means that all premium releases will be a max of £40 , its not much considering the blow of backwards compatability but at least its something.

Also d/l's look as though they are going to be pretty cheap (£6 for a full game like Tekken 5, and pence for add on packs)
