PSN Thursday: Blazing Angels crash into Uncharted wallpaper

by Alexander Sliwinski { Nov 16th 2007 at 11:05AM }

This week on the PSN, gamers can test out demos for Blazing Angels 2 and Toy Home. Considering Blazing Angels 2 has been out on other platforms for months, it's pretty safe to say that it's nothing to write home about, but it won't make you go kamikaze either.

Other than the trailer for the new Batman movie, The Dark Knight, the only other thing that really jumps out is free Uncharted: Drake's Fortune wallpapers. Release list for this week can be found after the break.

it took me a god damn half an hour to update motorstorm last night, i guess you get what you pay for with the free PSN

How big is the update? PSN downloads are definetly slower than Live downloads, but a half hour for an update? That seems slower than normal. I've actually had pretty good speeds recently.

get verizon fios it makes a difference i d/l uncharted demo in a half an hour

@Intel

I'd love to get fios myself, but it's not available here :-(

But beyond that, my download speeds on PSN rarely ever saturate my current connection speed anyway. As I said, I have been getting good speeds recently, but Live is almost always faster for downloads... that's been my experience anyway.

Oh come on! I get 1 gig downloads in half an hour, sometimes less! That's crazy fast. Way faster than I get from anywhere else online. Is that what you're calling slow, because if Live is faster than that I'd be pretty surprised.

Maybe there was a slowdown between you and Sony, I don't know, but I know that I've never had a problem with download speeds.

It should be like XBLA where a new game comes out every Thursday? Why arent all these arcade games multi platform? I mean some of them are but not majority.

I was so looking forward to the Blazing Angels 2 demo here in the UK, yet after being "promised" it by ThreeSpeech I was hugely disappointed when it didn't appear on the Euro store, only the US one. So I created a second PSN account using a random US address....yes, naughty, I know.

And totally over the moon I am that I've got it now, able to "try before I buy", because I've played it, seen it for the utter dull sub-PS2 CRAP that it is, and have saved myself 40 squids.

Man I love Sony and the PSN. But I hope they'll give us a decent PS3 flight sim one day.
