Was just tinkering around with Space Invaders Infinity Gene.

It has a VERY COOL mode where you can select Tracks of Music you may have saved to your PS3 Hard-Drive. The Game then uses those songs to decide Tempo of the Stage, Enemy Placement, Attack Patterns, Background, etc...

I haven't been able to get through many songs yet, but when I finished Offspring's "All I Want" I was rewarded with a Boss Battle against a Centipede!

Yeah, Infinity Gene is bloody awesome. I'm most impressed that it was tweaked enough to feel not at all like an iPhone game and is such a natural fit on a console.

PSP2 is a physical reality... surprising. (Story above, MK develpoer has one in studio).

Yeah, not surprising. I hope it doesn't cost half a grand. I'm guessing, about $299.99, but knowing Sony, I wouldn't be surprised if it was close to $400 at launch!

They're also going to probably make separate memory sticks for this like they always do. I hate how Sony does that. Why can't they just let us use the memory sticks we already have?

My only wish is I hope it has b/c so I could play all the games I got from PSN. I'm sure it would have b/c but Sony does some odd business decisions sometimes so I wouldn't be surprised if there is no b/c for PSP2.

The surprise to me was that it's in devs hands.  Eurogamer had their story last month from three un-named developement sources that said they had seen the PSP2. (That was the story that said it had the same footprint as a PSP3000, touch controls and flash memory  (not disc) based games.

I can see no way that the PSP2 will support UMDs for the purpose of backward compatibility.  BC is dead, except from Ninty thank god.

Yeah, UMDs are dead. As for b/c, I'm just hoping Sony puts b/c with PSN PSP games.

And even though the 3DS will have b/c (like you said, thank God) I'm keeping my DSi. I traded some of my handhelds in the past and I regret it. I won't make that mistake again.

That's pretty cool. It's different than I thought.

I didn't think they could do anything more to the Space Invaders Extreme formula but I guess I was wrong. Looks cool in 3D with that style.

I wish there was an easier way to get my music from my Mac to my PS3; I'd LOVE to try out ALL my songs to see how they affect the game!

I saw this game at a friends house, I was blown away. What you just described blows me away as well. Instant download whenever I get a working PS3.

+1 to the excitement regarding the new space invaders.  i really love SIE and this looks like it pushes further in that direction.

Speaking of PSN, when is Limbo being released on there?  I bought some network cards this summer which I'm saving for a few select games as I can't otherwise by anything from psn here

This NIS RPG looks great!

"ClaDun: This is An RPG!"

I love the retro look to it.

Thanks for the heads up, I've added it to my watch list.

Capcom's INCOME down 73% year over year.  No wonder they want to get RE6 out as soon as possible.

I thought Capcom was one of the Japanese developers that were untouchable early on this gen. They were doing everything right.

It wasn't just Bionic Commando or Dark Void, but I'm sure that has a lot to do with it. But I think it's Lost Planet 2 that affected them the most.

And Darkside Chronicles.

P.S I'm stuck on the metroid boss.

DQM: J2 is getting a second version in Japan and we still don't have word if it'll even be launched in the West. Criminal I tell ya.

I just don't want to see the West re-entere the era of  "screw you, DQ games never leave Japan."

What has two thumbs and is still bitter that we never got DQ: Yangus' Mysterious Dungeon?  THIS GUY!! . . . .cor blimey.
