European PSN releases for June 1st [UPDATE]
Puzzles, puzzles, puzzles. We love puzzles. Hmmm, that would make a good name for a website. If it hadn't already been done. Puzzles are big in Europe, because we're all so smart. It's true. Sony knows this and is attempting to aid us on our quest to find more and more fun and interesting brain exercises (our 'Puzzle Quest', perhaps? -- Oh, that's been done before too ... ) by releasing Go! Puzzle on the European PlayStation Store today. Check the list below to see a full list of goodies that are available. Go! Puzzle - Starter Pack (free) Go! Puzzle - All Levels (£3.99) Go! Puzzle - Swizzle Blocks (£1.99) Go! Puzzle - Skyscraper (£1.99) Go! Puzzle - Aquatica (£1.99) PlayStation Network Showcase video (free) Burnout Paradise trailer (free) Puzzletastic, right? Nice of Sony to separate the different styles of game out like that, incase we want to mix and match our own perfect puzzle experience. We were hoping for Calling All Cars, but this isn't nearly as bad as last week's pitiful offerings. The PSN Showcase video is quite a fun watch. It's full of games that we won't be seeing for at least a couple of months. But as PlayStation 3 owners, we're used to that.[UPDATE] Prices for Go! Puzzle packs have been corrected. Thanks Dave.
European PSN releases for May 25th
Europeans got a fairly hefty PSN update today. Though it features nothing but videos, it has a whiff of potential about it. The update for today is as follows. Spiderman 3 trailer (free) flOw trailer (free) Calling All Cars trailer (free) Pirates of the Caribbean 3 - 'It's all led to this' bonus video (free) Pirates of the Caribbean 3 - 'Jack Sparrow' bonus video (free) As we say, they're all videos. They are, however, also quite interesting. One would hope that the 'coming soon' message at the end of the Calling All Cars trailer would indicate a release next week. Fingers crossed for that. If so, it'd only be three weeks after the original release in America. Only. As for those Pirates of the Caribbean 3 videos, we find them intriguing. While together they only total about 5 minutes of footage, this is the first time a DVD-extra style video has been released on the PSN. Who knows, in the future we might be seeing things like downloadable commentary tracks for Blu-Ray movies that aren't found on the disc. We'll take all of that and more please, Sony. What sort of content would you like the PSN to expand into?
