Epic allowed you to run your own dedicated server for UT3 on PS3. The server files are available to download on their site, with help sections on their forum.

I can't think of any other game that allowed you to do that this generation though.

Why should you be entitled to free dlc?

If Sony did decide to give the dlc free, it should only be to PS+ subscribers.

@BlastProcessing

Why would anyone ever expect Lumines to be on the list? Lumines/Lumines II won't get a digital release due to music licensing.

Not much can be done about that unless everyone who contributed music to the game decides to waive all royalty/copyright ownership payments, and that is never going to happen.

Erm, the article is wrong.

Tetris, the version published by EA which runs at 1080p with 5.1 audio and online MP was launched in January 2011.

Limbo launched in July 2011 on PS3.

MS don't own Gears, Epic do. It would be down to Epic if they want their characters licensed to another developer's/publisher's game.

@arrrgh

No. When MS schedule maintenance they take Live down for 24hrs and no one can play online. Major Nelson usually announces it on his blog.

At least with the PSN maintenance, people can still play online. I'm online now and many of my friends are in BF3 and COD MP games.

Hopefully this will be better than the last PS3 beta I played which was Gotham City Impostors.

Maybe you lot in the US are getting bent over by the exchange rate. The Ico HD Collection launched on the UK PS store just before Christmas. It was and still is cheaper to buy the digital version over the retail Blu-ray version. It is very well priced in the UK.

There will be a problem (for us consumers) when retailers put the Blu-ray version on sale and undercut the PS store. In fact I'm surprised that retailers haven't complained yet. They don't like it when they can't compete and usually refuse to stock the product.

In August I picked up a 1TB Samsung Spinpoint M8 for £48 ($75.29 US) for my PS3. They are 9mm thick. It's so awesome.

@nevin1

You can. All you need is a developer's license so you have access to the SDK. Doing it this way, you could then sell your themes on the store and make hopefully make back the cost of the license. If themes are good, you can make a tidy profit.

Most of the themes from 3rd parties on the store are just looped videos. It doesn't take a huge company to put something like that together.
