Hi Everyone – It’s time for the weekly PlayStation Store Update.
Updates
Tank Battles Price Drop (now $6.99)
Downloadable Games
Braid ($14.99)
Braid is an artful puzzle-platformer where the player manipulates the flow of time in strange and unusual ways. In each world, time behaves differently, and it is time’s strangeness that creates the puzzles. The time behaviors include: rewinding, independent time streams, time that is tied to space, parallel realities, time dilation, and perhaps more.
Braid treats the player’s time as precious; there is no filler. Each puzzle shows the player something new about the game world.

Nice update.
But I wonder… since Tecmo is it realizing content for Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 can I ask if a patch will coming soon. The Co-op its almost unplayable with all those lags between players, even with my neighbors the game still lagging like crazy and some mission are almost impossible to beat with the constant lag and with lame A.I. if you choose to plasyer the mission @ solo.
Can someone enlight me about this possibility… Sony? Jeff…? Anyone?
Thanks in advance.
Horrible PSP update.
Pinball Heroes is simply way overpriced for what it is. They are GameBoy Advance quality tables. They remind me of Pinball of the Dead and PacMan Pinball on GBA. Even Zen Pinball on the PS3 is cheaper and those tables are vastly superior to these. Also, the Williams Collection for both PSP and PS3 are not only cheaper but far superior as well.
Where are the PSP demos Sony? Where are the demos for the new overpriced pinball games?
Where are the new PSP games to download that have had UMD releases in the past week?
Where is Pinball Hall of Fame:The Williams Collection to download for PSP?
Is anyone there? Do you guys have a clue?
No one cares about the PS Store. Wake up the Japanese team and tell them to turn the presence server on so we can play MW2 online. This is retarded.
Sweet.
Might pick up Braid!
=D
But please can some one relay the message from fourzerotwo to the Sony Japanese Team to turn on the Presence Server!!!!
According to him its the only thing preventing invites in MW2!!!!!!!!!
Glad we finally got a new dynamic theme, and it’s a GOOD one no less! (already saw a youtube video) Just need to get a good flow of them coming now. I imagine a lot of devs are working on some now, and learning from the others that are already released, as far as what works and what is a waste of money.
A sizable update though, regardless of weather or not any of it interests me. If anyone has any worries about Red Alert on PS1, trust me- using the D-pad as a mouse isn’t as bad as you may assume. I loved this game back in the day. (had the Retaliation version)
Star Trek DAC? Awesome. I’ve been waiting for this one. Thanks!
Yay for Kenka Bancho! I only heard about it today, but my experience with the previous games means an immediate buy without waiting to visit a store. Nice!
When can we expect Record of Agarest War? I checked the game’s wikipedia page and it says the North American PSN release should be out November 9. That struck me as odd because Nov. 9 was not a Thursday. I half expected it to be here today, though, but it’s not. Can’t trust that Wikipedia. So when’s it coming? Any estimate?
$40 for a downloadable portable game is insane. You are idiots for thinking people will pay that.
itunes albums cost less then CD’s. You cant just pocket the savings from not having to manufactur the disk/manual/shipping etc.
OCT NPD’s already proved the PSP Go’s price was dumb, hurry up and realise that your downloadable game pricing need changing too.
Pretty good update i’m downloading the ncaa basketball 10 demo.
Dave702@
Error 80022a07? Just wait and it will fix by itself… nothing to worry about.
Great update, downloading Braid…
Sigh…why did I buy a PSPgo again? And the Ratchet and Clank theme is horrible btw. An old wallpaper with a clock in front of it when there’s already a clock on the XMB. This is the first update that I couldn’t find anything I liked.
I seconded #22 suggestion. And an ok update.
Pretty good update i’m downloading the ncaa basketball 10.
Nice update especially having braid up way to go! My question remains when is castle crashers making its way to PS3?
Is tank battles something different from battle tanks?
Same game. Just a name change.
