Are you guys ready for GDC? Keep an eye on PS.Blog for coverage of any PlayStation news coming out of the conference! Oh, and my condolences to anybody who went to PAX East and is now gearing up for GDC — I don’t know how you do it.

Beyond: Two Souls is an official selection at Tribeca Film Festival, we confirmed the upcoming North American release of Final Fantasy X and X2 (in glorious HD), Vlambeer’s LUFTRAUSERS is coming to PS3 and PS Vita (I’m personally very excited for this one), mech battler Carnage Heart EXA is out on PSN now, Pinball wizards everywhere can try out the new Star Trek: The Next Generation table in The Pinball Arcade, and more.

What are you playing this weekend?

  • I’m playing: Dead or Alive 5 +, PixelJunk Monsters & Eden
  • I’m watching: Archer, Army of Darkness

      Not yet, but I plan to! I did see a new Ghibli film recently though: From Up on Poppy Hill. Pretty good flick, but I enjoyed the other ones more.

      Of the two you recommended, which should I watch first?

    @3 Mako how hard is hard mode? I have all but that trophy.

    @4. It was pretty touch but the game is pretty forgiving with checkpoints throughout. There’s a strategy for beating every part really. The only part u have to master is the Trial of Archimedes which has no checkpoints for all three waves. You’re gonna have to use a strategy for that. Overall though, not too difficult, I quite enjoyed it on hard which was my first playthrough.

    @5 Mako, I HATED that part haha I just beat it today on hard and that part was the most difficult. 3 waves with spamming enemies and no health regeneration :O

    I read on the European Playstation site that automatic downloads from purchases made on the webstore to the PS3 will be coming this May.

    I hope our region won’t have to wait a month or two for this to come here, unlike the wait with the new PS3 store app and webstore rollout.

    @8 I hated it too but once u got the tricks down, had the right plan, and beat it it was soooo satisfying! Thanks you Santa Monica for the challenge!

    Listening to: DoA5 soundtrack.
    I hope me and a bunch of others get a fix on the DoA5+ & Paradise bundle;It just gave us DoA5+ :l

    @Justin Steins;Gate is shorter at around 26 eps. Code Geass is 2 seasons (each is 25 eps). You really cant go wrong with either. Code Geass has story and action but Steins;Gate really has a great story and less action

    I’m playing Dark Souls, and Dead Space 3. Oh and Defiance. It looks like it’s going to be a lot of fun.

    I’m listening to random music.

    I’m watching PS.Blog for the announcement that after 3 months of waiting the Soul Sacrifice demo is finally available in every PlayStation Store. Not even that it’s translated just made available for everyone to download.
    Oh and Dark Souls with James on YouTube.
