Hey everyone, I’m Michael Santora, an Associate Producer from PopCap Games, bringing you all of our titles in association with Sony Online Entertainment. You may remember me from such blog posts as the announcement of Heavy Weapon on the PlayStation Network.
I am super excited to be able to tell everyone on the network that yes, we have listened, and yes, YOU CAN PLAY PEGGLE ON YOUR PlayStation 3 this Thursday! Peggle took the PC world by storm back in 2007, and quickly became the casual game that everyone – including a ton of hardcore gamers – played. Following on its heels, Peggle Nights was released and has also received major excitement and fanfare from the gaming masses.
Peggle PS3 fans, I bring you the double-shot of good news that not only is Peggle available this week, but Peggle Nights will also be available as additional downloadable content. This gives you two separate Adventure modes and two sets of Challenges to complete, in addition to the online Peg Party & Duel modes for multiplayer competition.
Just like Peggle on the other platforms, you have the ability to replay your best shots. Everyone has seen some of the amazing shots people have found ways to post to YouTube.com to show off their skills, right? Well there’s an exclusive new feature in Peggle and Peggle Nights on the PS3 that enables you to automatically upload your replays to YouTube without ever leaving the game! When I saw this for the first time, I was pretty blown away, and I am looking forward to seeing some really crazy and amazing shots from the many Peggle masters who have been waiting for PS3 Peggle to come along.
On behalf of everyone who worked on this title (and there are a whole lot of us) we all hope you love playing this game as much as we loved working on it.
All right PopCap, I’ll be quaddipping into this.
A demo for a $10 game? Most $20 can’t even get that part right. This is def a + for pop cap. Good job on the demo guys. *thumbs up*
A-WE-SO-ME!!!!!!
I got this through steam, but I will be getting this on thursday for sure!
Does it have trophies?
Great game that I’ve conquered on my iPhone. I’ll purchase if this has trophies… So, does Peggle support trophies? If so, how many and of which caliber.
Oh great and the release date for Australia/Europe will be in 6 months? That is what I hate about the PSN compared to the Xbox live where its released worldwide.
When will it come to europe?
Never played it. Can’t understand what’s going on in the videos. Might pass!
Finally
I have been waiting so long for this announcement. I wish you didn’t drag your feet on this. Still it is my favorite game on my phone and I can’t wait to get it for my PS3. Please PopCap keep the games coming to the PSN. Open the flood gates.
So I’m guessing this means we won’t get a PS1 classic. Though if we do it will probably be complete crap.
Will Peggle be hitting the Australian PSN Store this week? I honestly don’t know what my Fiance loves more: me or Peggle
I can understand if it is Peggle, so addictive
Europe ?
Hey Michael,
First I just want to say that I adore Peggle, and think it is one of the best puzzle games I have played. I already played and completed it though, on my iPhone. I have not, however, played Peggle Nights before. I was wondering if that was something I have to buy Peggle first to play. Thanks for your help. :)
No extras = no buy. This is the Braid thing all over again. I don’t bother paying full price for late ports when they don’t have a good amount of extras.
This also sucks because it means next week we’ll probably get Diner Dash so that’s a waste of 2 weeks.
We need Spelunker & Explodemon (haven’t heard much from this game in a while).
Ugh…. Why must they bring stupid games to this to PSN this thursday is going to suck except for BB:BC2 beta.
Hmmmm, not sure what this game is. from the vids it looks like another “breakout” type game. If so, I’ll probably buy it since I can’t get enough brick breaking, and since this has custom sountracks. I wish Sony would make custom sountracks mandatory. I passed on that brick breaker with bosses (forget the name) because of no custom tracks, and am finding it hard to keep playing Marvel UA2 and Dragon Age because of no custom tracks.
Hahaha sweet!
wait, so peggle is like arkanoid or something like that, but sped up 10 times? if so, sounds like fun!
How much additional content is in Peggle Nights?
@67
Think Plinko meets Arkanoid. It’s really fun.
Peggle Nights gives you a new Peggle Master, as well as another full Adventure playthru with 65 new levels, and a bunch of new challenges to beat as well. Peggle Nights is basically another game in its own right. When we released it on the PC & Mac platforms, it was its own game. But for PSN (and, yes, Xbox) we made it an add-on pack instead of a standalone title.
