There was also a lot of themes and what not, plus the GRID demo, unless that was released last week and I didn't notice it 8-P.

Yeah, the GRID Demo was last week. There are some cool themes, I just don't generally post them in the news story. But for those interested, there's 2 echochrome themes (both pretty nice), a Haze theme, and an Overlord theme. Also there's an echochrome theme for the PSP as well.

Ah ok, thought so, but I also thought it might be new since no one was discussing it on here (that I could see). I find the white echochrome theme to be a bit too much, personally, and I don't know how I feel about the footstep noises. I still can't find a theme I like more than the Eye of Judgment Custom 2 theme. It has nice icons, sounds, and great backgrounds. Plus, I'm a big fan of the game 8-P.

Agreed on Rocketmen.

I won the XBLA version as a prize in that Achievement scavenger hunt contest and I want my free points back. I played through most of one level and was very, VERY underwhelmed... and I'm someone who will give a game a lot of latitude if I didn't pay much (or anything) for it. When a game comes free and is still found lacking, that's just sad.

I like Rocketmen. At least co-op it's a lot of fun. It's got some problems, but overall I had a blast playing through it with a buddy. The humor was pretty good too.

I should try the co-op sometime. Maybe that will redeem it.

I only got through the first level though, but I just got tired of it doing it solo. I guess that's like a lot of things... you really need a partner to enjoy it.

Thank god sex isn't one of those things! ;)

Any opinions on the Overlord: Raising Hell demo? Watched a friend play through most of the first one, and was intrigued.

rocket man is one of those games you can turn your brain off and cruise through the game.

You know I bought the 2 folks for Hot Shots golf, have not tried them yet but love the game not to have 2 more playable folks unlocked.

Also I really enjoyed the DBZ:Burst Limit demo. The fighting was enjoyable and while not a huge DBZ fan I have this game on my Q from gamefly now.

That's good to hear about the DBZ demo. Can someone else give it a try and tell me what they think? My little brother loves the DBZ games and sadly, I don't know own a PS3 so I can't check this demo out.

*Since there isn't an Edit button I'll have to do this*

I just saw that the demo is also up on the Marketplace.

I'm also in the camp of liking Rocketmen. The humor was better than I expected and I had a lot of fun playing through it.
