As previously revealed, Jet Grind Radio (or rather Jet Set Radio) is going to see a return with a port of the original. We now know that's to a post on Sega's blog that an HD version of the tagging classic will be coming to Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network, and PC this summer.
The first few levels are free.
On the latest PlayStation Blogcast podcast, it was revealed that Killzone 3's multiplayer mode will be made available as a free download on the PSN this coming Tuesday.
A teaser trailer has all but confirmed the port.

Sony gives extra incentive to get its more expensive model.

You can buy US Vita games right now!
The PlayStation Network Store for the PlayStation Vita is now available. Those who imported a Vita from Japan can now buy US games.

The original Killzone was set to be released on the PlayStation Network on January 24, 2012. As of this news story, it is February 8, 2012 and that release date has come and gone with no word as to when it will be released or why it wasn't as scheduled. It appears that Sony has postponed Killzone 1 indefinitely.
Despite the change in account branding, the PlayStation Network brand will remain intact.
Yesterday, Sony began distributing emails to PSN users to alert them of a slight scheduled change to their accounts. In an effort to unify their various digital brands, Sony is establishing the Sony Entertainment Network and subsequently converting all PSN accounts to be more universal SEN accounts. While the overall digital service Sony is providing will carry the SEN branding, the PlayStation Network brand will remain to accommodate all of Sony's gaming consoles.
Puddle is about as fun as stepping in one.
Not many games have bored me like Puddle has. This game is a victim of itself, providing a very simple and laid back gameplay mechanic that is so relaxed that it may put gamers to sleep. If it’s not putting you to sleep, it’s frustrating you with gameplay situations that you would rather not be in. While the game is somewhat acceptable in short bursts, playing for any time longer than ten minutes will either enrage you or tire you. Simply put, you probably wouldn’t care enough to play the game.

There may be a reason those memory sticks are so expensive after all.
