Me too surprisngly. I got he free ones but I just wear my Kratos one, and don;t really even care about the costumes I collect in game. To be honest I find it a lot of hassle piking out the individual parts of each costume and dressing up my Sackboy. Time consuming and cosmetic. I only use the Kratos one because I like God of War (plus it matches my PSN Avatar) and some guy gave me the code free (THANK YOU RED-SCORPIUS/BOSSY PAPPA).
They are a rip off imo. Don't know why people are complaining too much though, it appears on the store at a time when both XBL and PSN have just seen rip-off Soul Calibur IV content, Need for Speed Undercover content & Fifa ripoffs (commentary packs). Every year it is like this, tbh I think Need for Speed is the biggest rip-off as they do this crap to people annually and people still keep buying!!

Fair play tbh, i've only put effort into making one character as i just wanted him to have some personality. I am a little jealous of the Kratos owners though, his beard would be a fantastic addition to my character
New guy has 2 spare Kratos codes. Ask him for one.
By the way guys. Word of caution:
If you want to play as the Hoff in PAIN, you NEED to buy the movie pack!
I just bought the Hoff thinking that I could just play with him on the older environments but No. You need the MOVIE PACK!
Weird, the USA page describes Hoff as being playable in all Pain environments (on the info for the download).
Gonna download both later on anyway (I have USA PAin so have to get USA addons).
At least the Hoff has done one good thing this year (I now forgive him for appearing in this terrible 2008 remake of his 80s show

He also had an epic cameo in Red Alert 3, twas the only good thing about the game imo!
!!!!!! May have to buy this now!!!!

I would guess some sort of video showing you a glimpse of what the challenges will be like in the hope of enticing you to buy, aforementioned, challenge rooms.
rp2000
I doubt we will see it Tuesday. Historically when USA get non Thursday updates due to public holidays etc, we just get normal Thursday update (I don't think EU will get it Thursday tbh, just saying we are not due a Tuesday update afaik).

Hey, Superstardust Portable supports online highscores, like it's big PS3 Brother version.
It connects to the internet, and then to your PSN account to check/upload.
I just tried it, and had an error connection, but it just launched, so maybe isn't there yet.
But it means we can have an online Highscore Challenge, like we all did with Superstardust HD back in the day.
I've not loaded that in ages, I bet my highscore has been obliterated by now
Vin.
Is SuperStardust Portable out? PSN or UMD?

Ive got a PSN account (the HKG one) but theres usually very little on it - also I dont think you can buy off it without the usual loopholes...

You can buy on HK store with PSN tickets (I think).
Also some credit, debit, visa cards work, as long as you top up in small increments. (I think 4HK dollars at a time?). I bought some PS1 games, can't recall which ones, because HK has some titles same as Japan, but in English.
They will be in Japanese, as mentioned above, you can get some of the same titles, in English, on HK store. I believe that the reason we have less PSOne games is licensing. I think a lot of these games are out of print and need music and that kind of thing re-licensing regionally (I am sure I read this before, sounds plausible to me, but could be crap for all I know).
You haven't even seen today' update yet!! It will consist of more than 2 LBP costumes!!!
rp2000
Not today. If it is they haven't announced it. I would expect it no earlier than next Thursday tbh.
rp2000
Correct. Ps1 game so do not expect it to be any different (no graphics changes etc) to the game from yesteryear.
rp2000
Yes. The store you are redirected to is defined by the address you enter for that PSN account. So you can have multiple accounts on your PS3 with different geographical addresses etc.

....even if the level design isn't perfect (you can respawn behind a wall with no means of escape if you are unlucky
Happened to me twice!!! They should patch it so you are sort of invincible/transparent/invisible (your ship could flash) for a second or 2 after you respawn, to get out of these situations.
I actually think the game is not completeable on 1 credit, which is why you get extra credits every few goes. Not even in the same league as Super Stardust HD, not tried Astro Tripper yet, glad I got it for slightly cheaper from USA store tbh. 5/10 from me.
rp2000
No.
PS1 and an Arcade game before that. There was also an Alpha 2 and 3 later on. Identical to PS1 version and you can transfer it to your PSP. Sadly you can already get Street Fighter Alpha Max (based on Alpha 3) for PSP which is much better.
Good fun if you liked the original on PS1 (I downloaded this of USA store a while back), but you may as well wait a few weeks for SSF2HD Remix to come out on PSN.
