Welcome to PALGN's PlayStation Network Review Round-Up. At the start of every month, this article will be dedicated to reviewing the titles that have been released during the past month on the PlayStation Network and give our verdict as to whether they are worth a download or not. We're a little bit behind, so this particular round-up will feature a couple of months worth of releases for your pleasure.
Dark Zero writes: "Fatal Inertia EX is the PlayStation 3 release of the year-old Xbox 360 game Fatal Inertia and is available now as a download from the PlayStation Store, for a fee of course.
Set in a futuristic world where mega-corporations control everything from government to entertainment, Fatal Inertia has become the most popular, and dangerous, pastime. The best drivers race in cars that hover over all types of ground, from molten lava to coastal inlets.
Sounds exciting doesn't it? Unfortunately, in the early stages of the game it isn't. I know that the earlier levels are supposed to be easy for beginners to grasp the controls, but in my eyes they were just uneventful, boring and didn't make me thrilled about playing on. Fortunately I did, otherwise this would be a very short review, and by the time you get halfway through the 'Professional League' it gets a bit trickier and somewhat more enjoyable. The tracks are short which means that the races are quick and if you get stuck in the crowd with the rest of the racers, it can get very chaotic, which is where the races get interesting. A side effect of the tracks being fairly short, sometimes the race is over before you know it and suddenly you're in second when you thought you could overtake the guy in front on the next corner to take home a win which gets a bit annoying.
The races are based on six different areas with all the course"
KOEI suckered them big time. This game will be garbage on both systems.
some other exclusives, such as Splinter Cell, ended up migrating over as well. Microsoft Corp has a lot of money, but Microsoft's Entertainment division obviously can't pay up for very many titles considering how much money they owe. Referring to permanent exclusivity, not timed, which is obviously cheaper. I'm actually curious as to how much Sony is paying for 3rd party exclusives, or if they're even paying for them.
Woot? Is there anybody even looking forward to this game? I never hear anything but crap about it.
this game looks like garbage why bother bring it over to the ps3 let it stay on the 360 where it belongs
wipeout on the playstation network is shaping up to be a better game
i dont think ms can be foolish enough to pay for that game
ms doesn't buy timed exclusives alright either they buy the game or not.in this case what happened was that as usual the developers had a hard time with the game on the ps3 and thats why they are releasing it months later just like with eternal sonata
