SCEE really should contact these guys: http://www.nsgcd.org/ maybe they can help them. I am not saying this for the PSN only but for their whole gaming side organization. wtf.

I bought it last night. It's a fairly disposable game, but it's quite good.

It's a phrase I use to describe games with very little longevity, but have a good "pick up and play" quality to them. If that makes any sense.
For £3~ it's more than worth it. Here's the gameplay trailer on GT - http://www.gametrailers.com/player/41656.html

I wouldn't be surprised if Insomniac hasn't even discussed the idea of making map packs free yet to SCEE and SCEJ (if they aren't free in Japan). They probably just convinced SCEA to do it first.Benedict said:
Just because SCEA lowers a price, doesn't mean SCEE or SCEJ will. They don't really communicate with each other on PS Store pricing and so on. Various sales and promotions are on a region by region cases.

I bought Astro Tripper yesterday and i like the game Astro Tripper kind of reminds me alittle of the old classical game called Dropzone when it comes to the gameplay, except that you see it from a top view instead of from the side like you do in Dropzone.
I also liked what the game costed Even if i should find the game boring and not play it for more than like 5-10 minutes, i probably still wouldnt regret buying it because i think the price for this game is very nice. And to look on the positive side, i would have supported a small game developer anyway
Is there something wrong with the trophies in Astro Tripper by the way? Everytime i start the game it loads in the trophies, and when i try to sync the trophies to my PSN, the Astro Tripper trophies doesnt show up under my profile. The trophies are visible localy on my Playstation 3 though.

Astro Tripper is a pretty poor conversion of the old Space Tripper game, which itself was a modern update to Uridium. The PSN version has a slightly flaky frame rate, several second loading times between levels (I'm sure the entire game could fit in the PS3's RAM) and the controls can't be configured.
But the game itself is just as sweet as when it came out on PC all those years ago. It's been years since I've played the PC game, but going from memory, the PS3 version is the same - same levels, same graphics, same SFX. So it's absolutely worth the asking price, but not an update, just an old PC game brought to PSN.

It's not dual stick. D-pad or left stick moves your ship, X fires, Square swaps between blue laser and red wide shot, Circle changes the direction you face. That's it. You scroll left/right along closed off horizontal areas, taking out a set number of spawning enemies to clear the level. Killing certain enemies give you weapon upgrade, which you retain when you die. The game also has a number of boss encounters.
I like it a lot. Well, I liked it a lot when I first played it on PC. The change of name led me to think this was an update, bit it's not. If you haven't played it before, it's certainly worth the tiny cost.

Ah ok, thanks for the info!Tntnnbltn said:
I just checked the website for PomPom games (those who developed Astro Tripper) and it says that there seems to be some issues with the syncing of the trophies to the PSN. http://pompomgames.com/
There is also a description in one of the trophies that is abit missleading:
I was wondering why i didnt get this trophy when i killed the boss, i thought you had to take out every weapon on that boss, but it seems to be the other way aroundPomPomGames.com said:

I have a question about Astro Tripper, and didn't know where to put it, so her it is. How the fuck do I beat the first boss, the spider. I'm sure I'm being really stupid but its pissing me off anyway.
Seems like a decent little game, though i seem to be having problems with the trophies as some people mentioned. Why does it have to load your trophies every time you start anyway, wierd.
