Are you the sort of person who really likes Megaman? Like, really likes Megaman? Do you lie awake at night saying, "once, just once I'd love to get my hands on some random piece of schwag that members of the gaming press get regularly and toss aside like so much chattel"?
Well then you're in luck! For the super low asking price of $49.99 you too can have your very own Megman 9 press kit of the ages! That's a full $700 off. Just hit up the Capcom store directly after 6PM Eastern time and you may just get lucky enough to be able to buy one. Be forewarned, supplies are limited and the fervor of retro gaming fans with too much money is not to be underestimated.
With this week’s PlayStation Store update Sony seems
to have gone out of their way to provide gamers with far more content than
anyone who has a job and doesn’t suffer from insomnia can handle.
Including several highly anticipated titles, this weeks PSN store update may
just (but hopefully won’t) prove to be the biggest week that the service will
enjoy. Now, let’s make with the mind-boggling, thumb-destroying list.
WipEout HD: After what seems like a metric eternity,
SCE Studio Liverpool has unleashed their much awaited futuristic racing
title for the appealing price point of $19.99.
Burnout Paradise:
Not to be contented with one robust racing title on PSN this week,
developer Criterion has turned their disc-based title into a fully
featured PSN title that carries a $29.99 price tag.
Megaman 9: Capcom brings back Inafune’s titular little blue
manservant for another round of stealing skills from the various and
sundry bosses that have co-opted the Brady Bunch’s opening title.
Get down with Rockman for the moderate price of $9.99. (Or just play
the demo repeatedly and imagine the enemies being different for
free. And your parents said that your imagination would get you
nowhere…)
GEON Emotions: “Bliss, rage, envy or fear … use the power of
your 8 emotions to” purchase and play the title that XBL has had for the
last year and a month. You can get in on some GEON for $9.99.
Various Rock Band songs: Rock out like Geddy Lee and Neil
Peart with Rush’s Moving Pictures. There are a few other
songs too, maybe you’re into them. If you’re at all interested in
this sort of thing you likely already know the pricing.
There are also a few demos
this week including NBA Live 09 and, on the complete opposite side of the
spectrum, NBA 09. As one could likely guess there are some videos that
have been posted as well; Resistance 2 and Tomb Raider Underworld top the
list. Backgrounds and such also make an appearance along with a few PSP
games that made the cut this week: Untold Legends and Puzzle Quest. In a
shocker to literally no one, there are still no PS1 classics worth writing home
about.
So that’s this week’s PSN
Store update. Please be delighted, and if you don’t mind give us a yell
about what you’re picking up. You’ll likely catch me on WipEout HD.
