So, you may have spotted that Q-Games' indie title PixelJunk Racers, which appears to be something along the lines of slot-car racing for the 21st century (woo!), debuts on the PlayStation Network today. But something you may not have spotted (and I just did, thanks to Brandon Boyer!) is that there are teaser images for their next two downloadable PlayStation 3 games in the series on the Pixeljunk.jp website.
TSA:
Earlier in the week the US division of SCE had all but the very latest PixelJunk games on sale for a dollar. The expectation – rightly – was that SCEE would do the same, and we could grab some of the PSN’s best games for a matter of pennies.
... not the first time SCEE screws their European customers over though, so TBH I really shouldn't have been surprised.
Would have loved to have picked these games up for a dollar, but I guess I'll hang on to my money.
Disappointing. Would have probably bought them all if they were a dollar/pound each
and that my friend is exactly the point! what people forget is that it costs Sony and the devs NOTHING to distribute a digital copy of a game. there's no retailer involved, no box or box art either and no transit costs. most people will have looked at that deal in America and bought them all which, when considered as a whole, makes them as much as if you bought one game at full price.
if this is successful and it drove revenue up substantially, we may see similar offers in the future for other devs. hopefully, it eventually comes to Europe and Japan.
scee will never change unless customers complain then show them you wont buy the games . if people still buy them then scee will keep on fcuking
Monsters, Eden, Shooter and Racers are 79p with PS+... where's Sidescroller?! :(
Starting tomorrow, to celebrate Q-Games 10th and PixelJun's 5th Anniversary all of PixelJunk games will be on sale.
Damn I already have these games. The prices are so cheap I might buy them again, lol. WOW...Just $1? You'll be a FOOL not to buy them. smh!
Holy shit thats a great deal. I want all of those on vita but il grab the ps3 ones for a buck. Too good to pass up.

Love Pixel junk games. Great fun and good music that just fits the games properly. I go Eden/encore, Monsters/deluxe/encore and I just picked up Shooter (gotta stop shooting workers LOL). I tried PJ Racer but wasn't for me. I highly recomend these games especially if you got kids/cousins/nefew/neices.
Yeah, gotta love the music for these games. I myself did not really care for Racers either, but I still picked it up to support the team at continuing making great games.
Absolutely LOVE PixelJunk games. I hope their games sell tons and they continue to do what they love!
Pixel junk SUCKS!!! I rather em spend time making a Warhawk or somethin
