Wow...so what was exactly the reason for the LUMINES no-show tonight?

 

[gogogow]

You have to get them through the Purchase menu in the Multiplayer section of the game itself.

The blog said it was available through the PSN Store. That might be quite confusing for some people (like me......)
But yeah, will check that out tomorrow.

[Captain Pants]

Ugh... why must they torture us?

 

[criesofthepast]

Is it true that Socom just got a trophy patch? A friend of mine just told me it did. Might want to add that to the OP.

Disappointing day to be a Sony fan. With the NPD ish and now a kinda weak update...

*takes ball and goes home*

 

[sca2511]

powerup forever looks weird

its 'fractal' and 'procedurally generated' which will no doubt excite some people.

(ign has videos just google him)

reminds me of novastrike

Don't drag this bullshit outside the NPD thread.

You're still getting the games you want and that's what makes you a fan. I'm still getting Uncharted 2 and God of War 3 and Infamous, and nothing really changes that.

If you can't enjoy the games on a console because of sales, then just pack up and leave this hobby.

Seriously. This is fucking pathetic. I don't participate in sales-age because I think it's fucking stupid. People are missing food and shelter so no, I don't get pissy when a 400 dollar piece of unneccesary luxury equipment is not bought by masses.

 

[AstroLad]

still want lumines though and that is actually sony's bad since it was their crappy magazing or whatever that thing is that announced the date. for shame....

Relax son. Don't take it personal. I love my PS3. Don't get it twisted. Alright....

 

[dralla]

the mountain dew wallpaper is surprisingly awesome.

and please stop charging for all the good LBP costumes.

 

[ayrkain]

Disappointed at no Lumines. Oh well, back to Persona 4 for me.

 

[DrPirate]

Relax son. Don't take it personal. I love my PS3. Don't get it twisted. Alright....

It's not against you.

It's just the moping in general....

Ah what the hell, I'm not a bad guy.

Sorry man, didn't mean to go off on you. I apologize.

No worries, dude. Everything's cool.

 

[Crisis]

Is it true that Socom just got a trophy patch? A friend of mine just told me it did. Might want to add that to the OP.

I would also like to know this.

 

[FlashFlooder]

wtf is power up forever?

 

[Killthee]

Wow...so what was exactly the reason for the LUMINES no-show tonight?

Like I said, the monkey pressed the wrong button and announced a date prematurely.

Spoiler

SCEA fucked up and jumped the gun on announcing a release date (via PULSE); Mizuguchi/Q Entertainment/ the press release released last week never mentioned the game coming out today, only that it was coming soon/Winter.

 

[AstroLad]

now is truly the winter of our discontent

 

[kassatsu]

I would also like to know this.

I just tried.

1.20 is the latest update, no trophies.

 

[SnakeXs]

now is truly the winter of our discontent

 

[Aeon712]

This sucks, I don't care about Home one bit. All day I was thinking how awesome its going to be to play Lumines and I get some game I never heard of before.

 

[eznark]

no trophy patch with Age of Booty maps this week?

 

[Crisis]

This sucks, I don't care about Home one bit. All day I was thinking how awesome its going to be to play Lumines and I get some game I never heard of before.

That's what bothers me about all of this. They talked about Lumines on the blog and in Pulse and on the day they said it would come out there's some fucking game that has never been advertised before on the store in its place. What the fuck is this shit?

 

[Dead Prince]

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2008/12/11/playstation-store-update-64/comment-page-1/#comment-138572
Lumines. :lol

Fuck, Just fire everyone at SCEA and anyone else that runs PSN.

 

[Cardon]

I really wanted my buttery beats today but I guess I'll have to wait awhile longer

Agreed. The Xbox 1 was flogged by the PS2 but that didn't stop it from being a great machine.

 

[womfalcs3]

I did get the free HVB trick shots add-on. My little sister is in love with that game. She's only 6, but she's pro compared to me. Always beats me.

 

[Bearillusion]

Do we have any idea when SF2 will go up outside of the US?

 

[Kagari]

Back to playing Persona 4, then!

 

[zoku88]

Wait, no Lumines?


vaderno.gif !!!!


>_<

As the others, I'm going back to P4....

 

[industrian]

No Mercs 2 update for the EU store, still no trophy patch for the EU High Velocity Bowling, and when the hell did Blast Factor get trophies (and I wonder if the EU version will get them too)?

 

[MiamiWesker]

Why such a crappy week. What is this Sony.

 

[MrDenny]

I was watching one of the videos at the mall on HOME, and the Playstation lady said Lumines Supernova was coming out next week.

 

[Crisis]

I was watching one of the videos at the mall on HOME, and the Playstation lady said Lumines Supernova was coming out next week.

You mean that same video that was playing last week on the us.playstation.com/psn site?

 

[Killthee]

PS3Fanboy is reporting that Q Entertainment is targeting Christmas for the launch of Lumines.

 

[Shadow780]

Noooooooooooo, Savage Moon in January?!

 

[Crisis]

PS3Fanboy is reporting that Q Entertainment is targeting Christmas for the launch of Lumines.

This is bullshit. They need to quit listing release dates if they know they can't make them and stop waiting until AFTER they're supposed to go up to announce when they do. How many people waited for Lumines to come out on the store and it didn't only to be greeted by this bullshit?

 

[AstroLad]

they are clearly optimizing the beatz

 

[pancakesandsex]

wtf is power up forever?

http://www.gametrailers.com/player/41052.html

This, it looks incredibly boring.

 

[dreamer3kx]

i cant believe i purchased SF lbp costumes, you got me, you got me good, guess im a sucker for sackboy.

 

[Shard]

This is bullshit. They need to quit listing release dates if they know they can't make them and stop waiting until AFTER they're supposed to go up to announce when they do. How many people waited for Lumines to come out on the store and it didn't only to be greeted by this bullshit?

Ya know, this is exactly the reason why Microsoft stopped giving out advanced release dates for XBLA games.

 

[AstroLad]

For some reason the statements about the release date for Lumines have been very unreliable. First it was November, then that passed. Then it was today. Now it's a very noncommital "later this month." We'll see; I'm not counting on it.

 

[BobsRevenge]

Crash Commando? Awesome. <3 Soldat and this game looks like a better version of that game... except less free.

 

[Flek]

fuck i whas looking forward to lumines. Sony upload ape failed

 

[Benedict]

The blog said it was available through the PSN Store. That might be quite confusing for some people (like me......)
But yeah, will check that out tomorrow.


Sony doesn't like money?

Sony LIKES money, the map-packs are still charged for fully in EU.

I can't believe how Sony is failing completely in their online-efforts with shit like this.

 

[Wark]

I was looking forward to purchasing Lumines today. Oh well, I'll just buy some other game on PSN today.

 

[angelfly]

I ended up buying Linger in Shadows. By the time they release Supernova I probably won't be interested in purchasing it anymore.

 

[Wark]

I'm probably just going to pick up Wipeout HD then.

 

[edible_candle]

I'm probably just going to pick up Wipeout HD then.

A wise choice my dear sir.

 

[sykoex]

So I stupidly sent back both gamefly games today and I need something to hold me over until my next que games arrive sometime next week.

Which will last me longer and/or is just generally better quality, 2D Prince of Persia or Penny Arcade?
