Even with the few issues that IGN brought up, Puzzle Quest was, and still is, an incredibly addictive game, and for fifteen dollars, the combination of the original and expansion pack is a great value for PS3 owners that haven't had a chance to play it or for fans that are interested in checking out the new content. While it would've been better with some of the technical issues ironed out and Trophy support, this is still something that casual and RPG fans will truly enjoy and should be downloaded without hesitation.

Diehard GameFAN writes: "The past few weeks have been weak for the Playstation Store. For two straight weeks, we had weak updates with little content. Then last week, we had an update with a lot of content, most of which sucked. This week brings us a bunch of demos, including a couple of high-profile ones, some interesting sales, a new Qore episode, and a new game."
NextGN: "In the end I pretty much yanked the controller from my partner's hand and haven't been able to put it down since. Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords combines the mechanics of an RPG and a puzzle game perfectly. The battles can be so immersive that you actually forget that you are playing a modified version of Bejewelled. This game will surely chew up your time. Playing it on the PlayStation 3 made me destroy my back in the end. If you have the choice buy it on PSP. This game is made to be enjoyed anytime and anywhere."
Electronic Theatre contacted D3 Publisher late last night to try and confirm these rumours, one way or another, and received the following statement in response first thing this morning:
Too bad about no trophies, I have my plate full anyways, so I can wait to see if it will be added.
will not be buying this, sorry
