PixelJunk Eden leads PSN charge News • News • Eurogamer.net

News PlayStation 3

In a flowery sort of way.

PixelJunk Eden headlines the PlayStation Store update today. You know, it's the game described by developer Q-Games as "kind of like an organic Mario".

Eden costs GBP 4.99 and puts you in the role of a little blob, bouncing around while eating pollen and birthing flowers and becoming part of the environment.

This intriguing outing is available in demo form, too, as is perspective puzzler echochrome.

Otherwise the PSN cupboards offer trailers for Prince of Persia, The Last Guy, and Movement, the weird SingStar show that searches Europe for musical talent.

That, or you can grab a free Bionic Commando Rearmed wallpaper.

I'm really impressed with Eden. Excellent art direction and soundscape with an intuative control scheme that's simple to pick up and play. Trophies and leaders boards with video sharing on youtube straight from the game add to a game that intially seems excellent.

The US store's got a brillant trailer of SFIV!

Where's 1942? Don't tell me it's still delayed because of European translations? The US PSN and most Xbox 360 territories got it last week, dammit! :/

It's alright, but my gf thinks it's the most boring game of all time, and belongs in the 80s. She's probably right, but us hardcore gamers like that sort of thing, right!?

Erm... back to Geometry Wars 2.

Looks nice but a definite one for trying the demo first. Wanted to like this but its just not something I'm going to play after 3 minutes.

"There's only 16 BC RA wallpapers! "

Congratulations for spotting this, I was just about to mention this...do EG even check the store, or just have a look at some PR shite they get sent. 16 wallpapers...not 1!!!

Tried the demo, but i'm still missing the point... After seeing that the majority actually enjoys it, i'll give it another go.

Some reason feels like a 2008 take of the Quicksilva's Bugaboo The Flea on the Spectrum (1984)?!

Loved the Eden demo, bought the full game.

See how it works, Sony? Really that simple. More demos please.

(don't change the price though, that's the best thing about PSN)

Yeah its a good game, good amount of skill needed in there for trapeze-ing everywhere. Bang on soundtrack, kinda deep house meets minimal!
