Fragcast mourns the passing of the web-based PS Store - but gets over it fairly quickly! Will you miss the PS Store of old, too?
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360.

Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
"Tomorrow we get a shiny new application-based interface made in a love-palace of stylishly designed win-bricks and fading page transitions of ultimate awesome.
Hee!
And then... within about 5 minutes, everyone will be b!tching about something else."
God, I love that last sentence.
lol lovin that last part...i guess its hard to be so patient about things but you know what...im going to have my ps3 for a long time with no intention of getting rid of it so sony take whatever time you need to fully polish the sh!t out of psn...most people dont realize that it took 5 years for xbl to be what it is today and it is without a doubt a great service...for a free service that we have with psn its shaping up to become one hell of a service as well but it takes time...psn has only been going on for one year heading on to number two so be patient...or at least try to
RIP - you were not as bad as they made you seem to be, you got the job done.
basically... the old store was a shambles to look at and use... but never so bad that it wasn't functional.
The PSN Store was a damn good first try.
