Yay I just got my Platnium Trophy off Uncharted, damn the 20th Chapter is hard, Sully is useless...

Too bad the update isn't coming this week, the 30th I'll probably be playing LBP =(

I bought SOCOM for the headset lol...

$49.99 for the bundle, was on sale for two days only =P

nice find!. the trophies will get me bak into the game =Dcsadhoo

I'm actually right now in the process of getting my Platnium Trophy in Uncharted. Just missing that and Crushing, on chapter 18 =O

The Trophies aren't tied to the levels in a sense, they are special side missions almost, like no using the Fire Tower or no upgrading a tower.

Hi PixelJunkies! I'm Matt Morton, Associate Producer at SCEA Santa Monica Studio and I've had the great fortune of working on the PixelJunk series since the very first title, PixelJunk Racers. We've been working hard to keep spreading the PixelJunk Love (as Deb Mars calls it) and wanted to give you a heads up on the upcoming patch for PixelJunk Monsters and PixelJunk Monsters: Encore.

The patch will be releasing VERY soon, with Japan getting the first patch release on October 23. If all goes well with final testing, you will see the patch in SCEA and SCEE territories on October 30. If there are any delays to the above mentioned dates, we will be sure to update the blog to let you know about it, so stay tuned!

The Q-Games team has been hard at work on the PixelJunk Monsters patch and has packed a TON of great features into this great game. I'll give you a quick breakdown of some of the new features you will expect to see:

Game Difficulty settings
You can now choose between three different difficulties of gameplay! There is a Casual mode, the Regular/Ranked mode, and Hard-core mode. The great news here is that you can use any combination of difficulties to complete your progress through the islands! Is there one particular map that's too hard? Try it in Casual mode. If you Rainbow the level, that rainbow counts and will remain on the map no matter what difficulty the other rainbows were achieved at! Only the Regular difficulty will register on the ranking boards, though.

Tower Menu selection
You can now set the default menu to appear when selecting a tower! How many times have you sold off a tower and run over to another tower to quickly upgrade it and accidentally sell it by mistake? I know I've done that many, many times. Now you can choose which option appears as the default, instead of the last action you selected.

Tower Balancing
Those of you who have purchased Encore know about the reduced cost on the Ice Tower, and balanced functionality of the Tesla tower. This patch applies those changes to BOTH islands, not just the Encore island.

Video Recording / YouTube Support
Ever since Q-Games included this feature into PixelJunk Eden, we knew it needed to be in Monsters as well. You will be able to record up to 10 minutes of gameplay and upload it directly to your YouTube account, or send it to your video folder on your PS3's XMB.

XMB Custom Soundtrack Support
You can now make your own custom soundtrack to listen to as you play PixelJunk Monsters and Encore! I've personally been enjoying listening to the PixelJunk Eden soundtrack while I play Monsters, as well as listening to the PixelJunk Monsters soundtrack within Eden! It's great how well those fantastic soundtracks work in other games.

With these features being added, and several other small bugs being fixed in the game, we think you'll have a great time playing PixelJunk Monsters and Encore all over again.

I think that's about it ... But it feels like I'm missing something ... Hmm ... I can't quite put my finger on what I might be forgetting. Wait a minute ... I remember now ...

TROPHIES
Trophies are now added for both PixelJunk Monsters and Encore. We weren't able to retroactively apply Trophies to the previously played data, but Q-Games didn't want to force people to play everything all over again. They came up with a great idea by creating Trophy Challenges. These challenges have specific maps with set rules or objectives that will reward you with Trophies if you complete them properly.

I'm so excited, can't wait. It's really gonna get me to replay the game again =O

I've heard that 1080p is only noticably different if the TV is at least 40" or more. I just bought a 37" 720p Bravia and it is an amazing improvement compared to my old CRT 27" Flatscreen.

If your going 30-37" go 720p, personally the extra $1-200 for 1080p at that size isn't really worth it.

If your going 40"+ go 1080p, you'll see the difference~

I am more a 360 fan than most here anyways, seeing my massive Gamerscore. 360 rulez!

Indeed, your lack of trophies is uncalled for. No Platnium Trophy!?!?! PATHETIC! Your 360 Gamercard makes your PS3 Gamercard look like... *thinks of good analogy* poop.

=P

It's extremely fun. I've been playing it with my new SOCOM headset and it's amazing. People are pretty nice online, and teamwork develops itself, ex reviving.

Preordered collectors =O

Same here.

I can only play offline games~

Also in Ontario here and I dont see anything about 49.99.Azul_Cobra

I'm from Toronto, and a guy earlier in this thread picked it up from Burlington which is relatively close by.

If you want to check, go to the website and click on weekly ads. Click on the middle flyer and it'll show 360, PS3, and Wii. Under the PS3 tab should show Socom for $49.99 and LBP.

Not sure if this happened to all Best Buys though.

[QUOTE="SPD_WeBmAsTaH"]Yeah, it's not $49.99 othewise I would've gone there already. You see, I have sweet hookups meaning I get text messages or calls or MSN messages the moment something goes on sale or is on a special deal. I have not received any notice about this so it's over, just give up.steveslugga

Told you guys...

It's from the 17th to the 19th only.

Thanks for the vouch Steveslugga =]
