MOAR LEVELS PLEASE

No $hit... I'm getting tired of destroying that city! You can only spell out "HOT ORAL SEX" so many times before it gets old.
Kodros @ Mar 13th 2008 5:47PM
You have no problem typing out "Hot Oral Sex" yet you won't type out "Shit"? =)

What's the difference between a PS3 theme and a PS3 wallpaper?
Sir Fidlious Wong (Zeon Defense Force) @ Mar 13th 2008 5:13PM
Wallpaper is just the background image. A theme completely skins the XMB, every icon, background, even sounds.....
Martez @ Mar 13th 2008 5:18PM
It does the sounds, too? I hadn't noticed. Hm.
Sir Fidlious Wong (Zeon Defense Force) @ Mar 13th 2008 5:32PM
You CAN now do the sounds. Was an update to their editor. Haven't seen one impliment it yet, but I only have about three themes...
Nick the Hero of Canton @ Mar 13th 2008 5:50PM
Thanks. Also, thanks Joystiq for editing my post.

i know the Ratchet & Clank one changes the sounds. it turns the normal XMB click thing into the menu sounds from Ratchet & Clank Future. i dont like those icons though so i use one i got from PS3-Themes.net

Kudos to Idol Minds for continualy updating their product. I havent purchased this game, but it is good to see developers constantly creating new content for their products.
ClarkyCat @ Mar 13th 2008 5:33PM
You mean menial content like characters, content that was created and could've been included with the game on release but instead they decided they could squeeze a buck by delaying and calling it DLC instead? Very generous.
I know that's pretty much every piece of DLC, but still. It's a PSN game. Come on.
Joe @ Mar 13th 2008 5:34PM
The game came with two characters and one level.
It's not good, it's money-grubbing.
Nick the Hero of Canton @ Mar 13th 2008 6:09PM
I wish Idol Minds would come back and do a Coolboards 6.

I sat down and played PAIN for two days when I was sick. So I done about all I can do. Most of my trophies are filled up...so I am bored with.
Need more levels, or I'm erasing it from my HD.
Personally, I haven't been too happy with PSN titles: Toy Home (controls) and Snakeball (mediocre).
Marcus @ Mar 14th 2008 12:39AM
you're insane johnny. There's games like Tekken 5, Stardust, PIXEL JUNK MONSTERS, Everyday Shooter! There's a lot more than snakeball. That game is terrible.

So it's free and they have dedicated servers as well as free themes. What the fuck am I paying thirty quid a year for!?
na2ru1 @ Mar 14th 2008 12:44PM
360 has p2p service which is half assed compared to dedicated servers.
i hadnt noticed before But Live charges for some themes? argh when will they stop being money hungry?
JakubK666 @ Mar 14th 2008 2:01PM
They charge for pretty much 99% of them.

Pain seems to be targeting 12-year-old boys with their big-boobed add-on girls. Seriously, it's embarrassing.
The Hot Shots Golf video showed excessive aliasing problems (especially in the trees). And the character design can't decide if it's Anime or Bratz!
Jackson @ Mar 14th 2008 10:34PM
...I'd like to point out that A) according to a recent report, 90% of PSN users are male, thus the decision for PAIN add-on characters shouldn't be that surprising--seriously, sex sells, deal with it--and B) Hot Shots Golf has a history of that kind of art style, so why would you expect them to change? If you don't like it, don't watch/play/bitch about it. Seriously.

It seems painful to buy and play.
