----------------------- --DEMOS-- -Warhammer 40,000 Space Marine -Bodycount (available now on XBL, later on PSN) -NHL 12 -Hamilton's Great Adventure -SF3: Third Strike Online Edition (XBLA version will obviously feature demo, but it may not have a demo on PSN, it wasn't listed as having one in the blog post) ------------------------ XBLA DEAL OF THE WEEK -No word yet but I will post it when it comes!
------------------------This week is the start of PSN play, which is the PS3's kind of meh version of Summer of Arcade, no games are exclusive, though Bloodrayne will be for a month. However, if you buy all 4 games, you will get PayDay: The Heist (a co-op shooter) for free. You also get bonuses for preordering all the games.
If you have to choose between SF3 Xbox or PS3 version, I guess the best option would be to go with your friends/B8 (so if you are buying it, make sure to say so and on what system!). Outside of potentially earning you PayDay, preordering SF3 on the PSN also gets you a theme (however, when I checked yesterday, I didn't see SF3 anywhere on the PSN play preorder list, so that option might be up, but it's worth checking. Also, if you buy the game on the PS3 before Sep 20, you will unlock the hidden boss character "Gill".
anyone picking up anything today? Personally, most anticipated thing for me is trying out the Warhammer demo, though I will be giving Hamilton and SF3 a try.

Gatling Gears is down to 400 MSP for an unknown amount of time, it's on sale now (1200 when it came out, then it got dropped to 800).
when I played the demo, it was pretty fun, but didn't seem worth 1200, for 400 I actually think I'm going to pick it up. SOMEONE ELSE GET IT AND BE MY CO-OP BUDDY

gatling gears bought, I'll make sure to give impressions! I thought the demo was decent, but yeah, not 1200 MSP decent. 800 was semi-tempting but I passed. 400 seems like a no brainer.

Whoa, didn't know about Gatling Gears. I watched the GiantBomb Quick Look when it first came out, and it looked pretty good for co-op, but I passed, since no one else I knew had it. 400MSP is indeed a no-brainer for me.

If I weren't such a 2D sprite-based graphics whore, I might give my experience with the game a 10/10, but that pixel distortion hurt me bad, so I have to go with a...
So wait, he's complaining that your choices with old 2D graphics are "it looks blotchy on HDTVs" or "the graphics filter distorts the original picture?" which is the exact same problem every old game has on new displays? you can play it on a CRT! what a silly reason to take off a point.
something called "Crazy Machines Elements" is also coming out tomorrow, as well as "Hole in the Wall" for the Kinect.
Deal of the Week: Looks like Call of Duty add ons might be discounted. Bulletstorm DLC will also be discounted, Red Faction: Battlegrounds, a Splinter Cell Conviction DLC pack, and Hydrophobia.
Gatling Gears and Minerva's Den are scheduled for deal of the week for NEXT week, so looks like all that was, was someone jumping the gun. If you missed it, it will be back.
Also announced was Mortal Kombat Arcade Collection for next week, interesting.

You beat yourself up with your past. Don't blame yourself, blame the world. Blame God. Blame me.
