Sony's PSN shooter Blast Factor has finally got a Trophy Patch in Europe - start up the game and you'll be prompted to update the title to 2.01, and there you go - Trophies!
BluePoint Games president Andy O'Neil revealed yesterday on the Playstation.Blog that a trophy patch will be coming to Blast Factor this thursday. The list of trophies however had not been revealed. Hit the jump now to see them all.
Chalk this up in the 'who would have ever thought' category, but the developers of Blast Factor have decided to add in trophies for their TWO YEAR OLD GAME. While Blast Factor was a fun title to play at the time, much of that had to do with the whole complete lack of PSN and PS3 games during that time frame. Its unique shooter gameplay still gives it some legs, but compared to games like Everyday Shooter and Super Stardust HD it seems a little... first-gen.
The European Playstation Network Store has been updated and is Live right now. The update includes:
Three Speech have confirmed the EU Store release Date for the Blast Factor Expansion Pack.
PS3fanboy.com: Just by chance, we decided to give Blast Factor another go this morning. Perhaps it was fate, or perhaps we were reminded how fun it is by the promise of an soon-to-be-released expansion on the PlayStation.Blog. Either way, when we started the game we were greeted by a message on the menu screen. It read as follows: "A new Blast Factor expansion pack is available to download. Please visit the PLAYSTATION@Store to find out more!"
Blast Factor, the addictive little shooter downloadable on the PSN Store, is receiving its second expansion pack. If you don't own the game or haven't read up on it, check out PSU's review of the game with its multiplayer expansion.
As promised a few weeks ago, Sony is updating its PlayStation Store with a few new offerings. Tomorrow will see one item for the PlayStation 3 and one for the PlayStation Portable. Blast Factor multiplayer pack will be available for $2.99; Jet Moto for PSPs downloadable for $5.99.
Sony just sent out a press release that lists what's coming to the PlayStation Store in the next little while. First and foremost, PSone games Jet Moto and Wipeout are on the way for PSP at $5.99 each.
Lemmings features 40 puzzles presented with newly created high definition graphics, and is available for £5.99. There's also a demo which you can get for free before you buy.
Where Blast Factor lacks style it makes up for with dynamic gameplay elements, including the most effective usage of Sixaxis's motion capabilities to date. While deceptively simple, the act of jerking the controller left or right to slosh around the liquid within each stage (corralling the enemies) typifies a clear advantage PS3 could have over Xbox 360 -- though the lack of rumble certainly damages the game's 'blast' factor. Other noteworthy devices include Blast Factor's auto-adjusting difficulty and enemy variation (players must discover how each class of baddie is defeated)...
