Piyotama Hero falls within the latter category and tries to take the genre a little further than its gone before, with mixed results."
WorthPlaying writes, "On Monday Sony announced it was giving away four free games to PlayStation Vita owners in order to celebrate the one year anniversary of the portable console in North America.
In order to download the four games, you were supposed to access the PSN store via a Vita. And, for the most part, that was true. When the PSN store updated on Tuesday evening, the “purchase” option for the four games was removed from the PS3 PSN store and the Sony Entertainment Network PSN store on the web. However, Sony seems to have forgotten that the PSP can also access the PSN store."
I don't remember Sony saying it was exclusive to the Vita store. I assumed it was always supposed to be free for everyone
Exactly. This isn't any error and if it was, they would have fixed it.
@Godchild1020 - Don't think that people on PSN can't make mistakes, or leave mistakes on for a few hours or so.
Why I say that? This for instance on PSP that had happened and I was one of them that randomly saw it, thought it was a demo, downloaded it - Only to find out it was the FULL GAME. Lol

Undead Knights, got it for free, can't remember if it was an error that they didn't notice til 5+, 10+ hours or more.
Ontop of your comment, yes, Sony basically said it was for the Vita Owners:
http://blog.us.playstation....
"To continue the celebration this week, we’re pleased to offer a special gift for PS Vita owners—by giving away four classic games for free exclusively in the PlayStation Vita Store!"
It's targeted to Vita owners during the anniversary, so, essentially to those whom already own the Vita as a gift.
If you are on the PC you need to use Media Go to access the store, like it says in the linked story. If you try to access the store from the PS3 or from the SEN web store you will not be able to get them.
The promotion was initially announced as being exclusive to the Vita store. That's why the free games cannot be "purchased" on either the PS3 store or the web store.
Thank you worthplaying.com. I didn't even realize that this offer was going on. You managed to both inform me and solve a problem at the same time. (^_^)
From the article, "See, Sony’s giving away free games to all Vita owners. You don’t have to have PlayStation Plus. You just need to have a Vita between March 5-11, 2013. I’d say it’s probably one of the smartest moves Sony could make at the moment. Now that the Vita has hit the one year mark, people are going to become even more critical and pick at sales figures and game releases even more. When a system is a year old, you expect it to start getting comfortable and for numerous game announcements to start spilling out. The Vita isn't settled and only a few new games have been announced. By counteracting that with a handful of good, free games, Sony is heading off ill will and customer discontent by instantly expanding people’s libraries."

PSP Minis have a lot of potential. This line of bite-sized digital download games offers indie developers the chance to fill market niches that would be unviable in the blockbuster-driven retail realm. PSP Minis also offer consumers nuggets of gameplay at a fraction of the cost of normal games. But there's a catch: with PSP Minis, a nugget of gameplay is all you get...
Somewhere in the hoary wilderness of the Hotai forest lives the Piyomama, a giant chicken with an incredible reproductive system. The Piyomama can disgorge hundreds of eggs per minute; eggs that can be fertilised simply by arranging them into lines of matching colour. Once fertilised, the 'piyo' they contain hatch within seconds, and each piyo in turn is presumably capable of growing into a Piyomama in short order. The Hotai forest must be home to some fantastically voracious predators to keep the piyo population under control.
