Weekly Playstation Store Update thread

I can't wait for all this new capcom stuff, especially street fighter hd and bionic commando.

Dark Mist - I haven't really played it much at all, I don't like the fact that if you die your back to the beginning of the maze, I give up too easily :p

Superstardust was an excellent old school asteroids shooter, with excellent graphics and sound, now it's time to see R-Type style games, using the full graphical effects available to devs. A few years ago, old school scrolling shooters, using latest 3D card tech seemed to be coming out all the time on the PC. Still 2D to play, but using polys, and super fancy explosions etc. I'd love to see something like that on PSN. Or even 3D remakes, I really enjoyed Silpheed etc on PS2, hell, I even still have the PS1 version of Project X here.

V1N.

The thing about Dark Mist is I'm sure it's better once everything's unlocked (I managed to find a video on youtube that reminds me a bit of survival in SSHD. I'm not a fan of having to go back to the start of the game everyone time you turn the game on (in SSHD you could choose which planet to start from once it was unlocked) but the expansion pack to Dark Mist at least is supposed to have save points (as well as extra characters and multiplayer :)).

Really looking forward to some more 2d / pseudo-3d shooters - I'm still hopeful that Soldner-X is going to be good, as the developers seem to be taking in feedback from the pc release. Then there's Novastrike which will hopefully see a UK release soonish (the developers have stated they will release in the US first then UK - source - actually, it's an interesting read / interview :)). Besides that there's Powerup Forever (and here) which looks to be pretty interesting :)

i was actually pretty impressed, the graphics aint amazing but i definitely wouldnt call it bad, i wasnt keen on the tearing and fog though. Gameplay-wise seems decent, destructible environments seemed pretty cool, controls seemed slightly weird compared to all the other fps's out there. Will keep an eye out on this one for sure :)
