Sackboy MIA III - PR Nightmare



The Sackboy Missing In Action trilogy is now complete! Thanks Sony. It got my creative juices flowing with all this shitty Photoshop madness.

Expect LittleBigPlanet PSP to be on the PSN Store this coming Thursday, a good week and a half after it's UMD retail launch. Everyone is pissed. Just check out Sony's own LittleBigWorkshop forums. Ouch! For some crazy reason, the title is on the European PSN Store(crap!). Thanks Sony! Yet, it appears that there might actually be some technical reasons why the title isn't out on the North American store yet(double crap!).

I could rant some more and I will! I was looking so forward to playing this on my PSP GO. I bought into the whole "PSP GO is gonna kick ass" mentality. The hardware is awesome. I love it's sexy, sleek design. The system is more portable than ever.

Yet, we can blame Sony themselves for all that appears to be going wrong. The back catalog is crawling onto the network store. I still haven't seen any NAMCO or SQUARE ENIX UMD legacy titles. A good chunk of what is available is overly priced. I don't understand what is going on.

Good thing I kept my PSP-3000. Honestly, if I'm to recommend a PSP portable to somebody I'd tell them to pick up one of the Gran Turismo or Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines PSP-3000 bundles. They're cheaper and you get a hell of a lot more value thrown in them. Plus, you don't have to deal with the PSN Store which is ridiculous.
