echochromeexpansion1 echochrome expansion on the Playstation Store

You probably missed this part on our weekly Playstation Store update, but we’re letting you know that users on the PSP can purchase the expansion pack for $5. It will increase level of maps with 40.

If you didn’t have the original version already, they will come with a bundle including both the expansion and the original version. So that’s 96 levels to keep keep you entertained.

One interesting fact was that it seems echochrome is taking up all the 333MHz of processing power.

pixeljunkedendeal Monsters Encore expansion free with Eden purchase

No doubt that Monster Encore is very popular as it keeps being downloaded from the store week after week. To encourage the sales and popularity of their latest game Eden, the team responsible for the PixelJunk series has cooked up a deal where you will receive the expansion of Monster Encore for free with the purchase of Eden.

The expansion holds 15 new levels (and a random level generator).

So if you want to make use of this deal, head over to the Playstation Store and buy Eden (don’t forget to try it out as well) cause the deal only lasts till October 16th.

We haven’t covered this PSN game very well but SCEA let know on the Playstation Blog that Pain has a expansion named The Amusement Park.

The expansion bring quite a bit of game play evolution from the development side and substanial input from people who post on their community site. They’ve been looking at the amount of trophies they wanted to implement but decided to tone it down a bit to make is accessible for everybody.

Four new content additons have been added:

  • One new PAIN Environment: The Amusement Park ($5.99 USD)
  • Three new launchable characters: Tati, Yeony and Kenneth ($0.99 USD)
  • Some brand new modes (Call da Shot, Clown Toss, Trauma, Hot n Cold)
  • A new experimental PAIN mode called PAINLabs. PAINLabs will be our chance to give you new PAIN-Based experimental environments every week. Here they will work with the community (you guys) to build new and improved game modes that will make their way into future expansions. Make sure you are there to grab those Lab experiments when they are posted. They will change them every week.

But first the game will get the 1.5 update on the 27th which is free. This update will include Custom In-Game Music, XMB Trophies, Training Tutorials among several new features to the game.

The price for this new expansion will be $7.99. Sony is also planning to set up a new Booster Combo Pack which includes all 3 of the expansions for only $15.99.

Check the trailer we posted up earlier if you missed it.

This is how the full map will look like.

The map has 10 lay-outs to play on plus the full map shown above.

Another ‘important’ addition is the jetback. The developers saw this as a way to freshen up the game. Time will tell if this plan succeeded.

Were not going into detail on how you can use this, best to check the blog post as we haven’t been able to play with it ourselves.
One good thing about the jetpack is that you can mount other vehicle while having it on and use it like a ejector seat. I myself am very excited and looking forward to it and hopefully this will increase my PSN activity for that Home beta invite.

Check the whole post over at the Playstation blog which inclused several more images.
