Good day to you all, hope you’ve all had a good week.
Today, as most of you blog readers will know, is the day that we unleash the ModNation Racers Beta for you, and for the first 100,000 people who download it when the store updates (should be mid-afternoon), I can assure you, you’ll be having a LOT of fun. I will update on here, and via my twitter feed, as soon as the store is live.
We also have a fresh batch of special offers available for you, with a selection that should cater for all tastes. Personally, I think Smash Cars is great value, and that reduction on Unbound Saga is also very tempting is it not? Okay, enough tactless sales attempts I promise.
We also have some new dynamic themes for Heavy Rain, Buzz! and Singstar, and another mini title, Vector TD, is added to the minis family. This is all wrapped up with a few more bits and pieces, full details below.
Finally, this week, in another attempt to shamelessly please you all with freebies, I have a couple of handfuls of dynamically themed codes (very subtle hint on what they’re for I know) to give away. However, rather than ask you to pander to me for them, let’s try this instead; those who want to try and get a code from me reply below completing the following sentence “I don’t deserve one of your codes because…” I’ll give codes away today and tomorrow, to those replies I deem the best.
I look forward to reading your comments

I don’t deserve one of your codes because I’m SICK of winning free stuff all the time! I don’t know what to do with it all

is it not possible to get a date comfirmed or is it that nobody actually knows when it will be ready for download as all ff fans still have no idea
Posted on 21 January, 2010 at 2:24 pm by Mike Kebby
I can see dates for content weeks/months in advance, I’m just not often allowed to reveal dates in advance.

Unbound Saga! I’ve been shamefully waiting for a price drop on this, and now’s my chance!
Sorry indie developers, I’m sure I’ll love it… why do you make me feel so cheap waiting for a price drop ;_;

“I don’t deserve one of your codes because I’ll be busy playing with my Nintendo DS” lol
Come on, when will dissidia be available?. I’m going to get mad a it…I’ve been waiting too much and haven’t seen it yet. In february will be released Half-Minute Hero. Do you know if it will be in the store? Will it even be in Spanish? (I hope…)

i DOnt deserve one of your codes as i fear i may be responsible for bringing down the psn servers later with my contant F5 -ing waiting for the modnation beta to arrive

Think I might pick up Cuboid for the reduced price as I do like the Flash game. The only Dynamic Theme I’m interested in is the Heavy Rain one, and since it’s the same one as included in the SE version of the game I’ll be getting it anyway!
I hope you don’t update the store TOO early though so all the codes go to the school kids – wait until near 6pm to give us ‘grown ups’ a chance to get home from work first…
(I bet that is the first time you’ve ever been asked to make the store update later rather than earlier! lol)

Still no Final Fantasy VIII, ahh well. It’s getting close to the end of the month, i think it’s time i stop waiting for it. I don’t even think we’ll get it this month.

I don’t deserve one of your codes because I’m more concerned with your grammatical error (see below) than the update itself.

I don’t deserve one of your codes because I’ve been slowly feeding Mike muscle growth hormones to help him win his first boxing match
Hey Mikeface, Glad ModNation beta is finally out in the UK, hope to see some quality racetracks for it
It seems that the Q1 rush of 2010 really hit me yesterday when i realised how many bloody PS3 games are out within the next month or so, its crazy! anything you are keeping an eye on or a game you know is a must buy?
take it easy on tardy thursday
