Puzzle Quest 2 will let players match gems as one of four new character classes: War Mage, Inquisitor, Barbarian, or Assassin, using "all-new weapons, spells, and shields." Sorry if you just got over a Puzzle Quest addiction.

Why is it, puzzle games are always delayed for PSN? Do they not see the market? Or did Microsoft cut a check? (Doubtful, as it's coming to DS as well).

The pun...it burns!
But looking at it, Zuma was delayed (and costs double what it does on XBLA), Peggle was delayed, and those are just two off of the top of my head.

I'm not entirely sure. I think they'd have to be standalone titles (like Bejeweled Twist). There aren't any expansions currently on the store, to my knowledge.

This. If your DS game has load times, you are doing it wrong. Horribly, horribly wrong.

Absolutely THIS. Then again, even
...loading...
without the annoying

load screens, Galactrix just wasn't as engaging as Puzzle Quest was. Basically you just had to get a gadget that gave you multiple turns and then you win the game.
Meanwhile, Puzzle Quest Kingdoms is just lame. Once you pump up your defense a little to prevent accidental death, you easily become nearly invincible by exploiting the stupid AI.
I really hope Puzzle Quest 2 gets back to the old addictive gameplay that made the first one such a hit.

Because they're often made by small developers who cut their teeth on PC technology, which more or less equals X360 tech. Big developers can afford the parallel development teams, and can afford to delay everything else to accommodate the PS3's longer development cycle. Small devs can't.
I'm one of the PQ addicts out there. I've been developing a new character for the past couple of weeks. I just heard about the (first true) sequel yesterday. Ugh! So much more of my time is going to end up down the drain.

But Sony has the fund for small devs. They've helped a ton of indie guys go mainstream. That excuse doesn't really hold water.
