Isn't it a PSN downloadable title? That's always been my impression of it anyway...!

Is not the point of games, to be played and enjoyed? What does the amount of free space on the disc have to do with anything?
I agree, but also if it is that small, it warrants a PSN release I think. Perhaps preferantially as it'd reduce 2nd hand sales.

And if their niche is the youth market then having physical media makes sense and is almost essential in the holiday period. I agree though that if the package is small enough then offer it on both PM and DD but that currently makes it really hard to get 59.99 for it. The other option I guess would be to offer a DD version after you've drop the price under $40.
The game was released at 40$ MSRP.
I had seen it at Fry's for $35, just fyi.
It can't really be the youth market. The game's a take off of RPG of old, targeted at old-time gamers in their 30s typically.
If it were a £20 PSN download, I'd have probably bought it by now without thinking!
Yeah, personally I'm already covered, thanks. Just wanted to point out that the game was budget priced all along, so concerns about if it's worth 60$ become kind of moot
I caught some sleep last nite. Rolf, where are you in the game now ?
I started as an Assassin (Royal). The game doesn't explain the classes at all (Royal, Hero, and what else ?)
What effect does it have ? I chose Royal because of Demon's Souls experience.
I suspect the class doesn't do anything except for making the custom characters and editor more interesting.

In an ideal world, nothing. But in reality I have to eject whatever other disc I had in the drive (wear and tear on the mechanism), put it back in its case, grab this game's case, take out the disc and put it in the drive (wear and tear on the mechanism) and boot it up. Again wearing my optical drive.
All for a game which I could have downloaded to the HDD in a few minutes, something that would have been cheaper for all involved I might add...
I'm at the part where I'm guarding the front porch, waiting for the postman
It shipped from Zavvi 5 days ago ... which means I'll have it tomorrow or Tuesday, with a little luck.

The HDD is also a wear and tear device. ^_^
I'd prefer to have all my games from PSN ie installed on the HDD without the need for a disc, I'd be willing to wait for the "long" download time.
But still, if a game is "worth playing its worth buying"* on disc
*ohhh the memories that brings back of my C64 and Amiga
