Quick PSN/3 Question(s)

[Yoshimax]

Are there release schedules or suchlike of upcoming demos/games ?

How often does stuff appear ?

Is it a fixed day a-la XBLA/VC (Wed/Fri) ?

Ta !

[Bleeders]

Usually a Friday I think.

[sj33]

I can only answer the third - no set day, just whenever it's ready.

It's worth setting up an American, Japanese and HK account, as they all have very different content in the stores. I think some people even have Korean accounts.

[Myth]

We get a weekly update on a Thursday (Used to be Friday) and then content can randomly go up during the week but its becoming less as Thursday is being used as the weekly update now.

Thanks chaps

One last question - Any info anywhere for setting up Jap/US accounts and also is there a minna no golf demo on the JP store ? I'm itching to try that.

[Myth]

Isn't there a sticky at the top saying how?

Only way to get the Mingol5 demo now is to log in using the account of someone who has downloaded it, then go to their download list and get it that way. I think.

If you've ever played any version of the game before then you really don't need a demo mate. The ONLY reason I've not already got a copy is because I'm absolutely stinking **** broke this month thanks to my account being defrauded.

What's oot then ?

I'm back with more annoying questions :

MikeF commented about lack of rumble in SotC - I haven't really touched the game yet how is rumbled employed ? Is it correct that the game gets properly upscaled and the framerate is improved under emulation ?

How does Rez look+play on the PS3 upscaled as I haven't played it for donkeys and would like to do so.

And finally, and I know these threads have been done in the past - Give me 5 must play before you die PS2 games - Not Okami style 50 hour jobbies but great games along the lines of frequency/amplitude/rez.

Shoot !

Rez plays ... like rez, upscaled. pretty simple really


None of those are PSN questions either.

[Yoshimax]

For all I knew it may not have worked at all due to the back-compat botch job.

I fail to see the point of sentence 2 given the thread title ?

[sj33]

Don't overestimate the importance of upscaling. I certainly find my TV does a better job of it than the PS3 anyway, though my PS3 has h/w backwards compatiblity.

I've tried Rez and it looks fine on the PS3.

You've probably picked my favourite PS2 games already but how do things like Gradius II & IV and R-Type Final sound to you?

I'd also recommend giving Guitaroo Man and Mad Maestro a go for music based games if you've not tried them yet.

I think most of the better games are the bigger games to be honest, have you tried Disgaea?

[Yoshimax]

I was thinking about MGS3:Subsistance as I adored the original - How does it hold up ?

I've got RType Final

Gradius IV was indeed rather nice to look at and Treasure games should be treasured I'll hunt that down.

Why Sega ? Why did you not release cosmic smash on PS2
