PlayStation Network Update: 11/20/2008
Published November 22, 2008
Not to sound like a broken record, but Sony really needs to bring out the games. It is a good thing we are getting Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix on Tuesday or I would lose all hope. The first big entry is the BioShock PS3 Challenge Rooms, but frankly I am really disappointed with this DLC as we were lead to believe at the start that this would be part of the retail product. Sorry, no sale.
The other add-on content is some pretty ridiculous Locoroco-themed LittleBigPlanet outfits. Where are the amazing branded levels we have heard about? Sorry, no sale. Next we have a ton of Dead Space add-ons that are sometimes graphical tweaks and sometimes weapon enhancements. They are overpriced, pay for DLC items and I am not amused. Sorry, no sale.
Guitar Hero: World Tour, Rock Band and Karaoke Revolution Presents: American Idol Encore 2 all have large updates this week, but none of it any good as far as I am concerned. Sorry, no sale.
We have an uninteresting demo for Moto GP 08, a slew of game videos that are OK, some movie trailers and more crappy pay-for-themes! Sorry, no sale.
It's an unfortunate week on the good old PSN. Let's hope SSFIITHDR is not the only good thing next week or we will be able to see tumbleweeds on Thursday's update. Deets are below.
