"Xbox Live & PSN Update Forum"

The name of the forum says it all really. We will often mention the odd update and game on here but i think we need a forum (possible sticky) which allows people to note of new and old things on either console that is worth mentioning.

I for one probably miss out on loads of great games and demos just from forgetting to check. So this should help!

I was having a look about and too many games look like they will be fun for a day or 2 but then never played again. When spending my points i do like to use them carefully.

Might have to get the Live season for FIFA.....not sure.

Can't think of anything at the moment.

It's been a long time since I had enough points in my XBL account to be honest, I just play the stuff I already have and tend to get things on PSN a bit more now.

Locoroco Midnight Carnival on the PSP is due on PSN on 29th October, just before halloween.

It's a standalone Locoroco game with some spooky themes and will cost £11.99. It's already on my list of games to get.

Seemed this got pushed down rather quickly lol - if anyone could throw some advice in, would be great. cheers

Still got 1100 MS point kicking about - anyone know any good games coming out soon??

Also have they taken the old Xbox games off, can't recall seeing them about!?

For PS3 PSN games I recommend:

Wipeout HD
Pain
Outrun (probably have this on 360 youself though)
Ratchet and Clank
Flower
Crash Commandos


For PSP:
Grand Theft Auto Liberty City Stories/Vice City Stories
Locoroco 2
Patapon 2
Gran Turismo
Motorstorm Arctic Edge
and a load of others.

Games I'd still love to see on PSP to download:
Outrun Coast2Coast
Ridge Racer 2
Capcom compilations (Replay/Remix)

Would download them straight away if they turned up.

Did you get this in the end?

I really quite enjoyed it. A bog standard button masher it seems, but the cutscenes etc make it very enjoyable. Will have to have a look for a pre-order bargain price.

Wow, PS store gets a lot of updates, did not see any new demos or games on Xbox which sucks a bit.

Might have to check the PS store for original games that can be downloaded, may add to my PSP quest, Theme Hospital is a must buy for anyone surely!

Heads up, PSN update:

L4D is such a good game! Number 2 will be equally as awesome i think.

Not that many great Demos on Xbox at the moment!

I'm in the same boat. Still waiting for my free copy of GTA:LCS to download for the PSP before the other demos start up.

At least L4D has just downloaded from Steam, so that's something done.
