The wait is over! We’re very proud to announce that our cinematic platform adventure title Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken is fully cooked, boiled and ready to serve up exclusively on PSN starting with today’s PlayStation Store update.

Building upon our critically-acclaimed browser-based game; “Rocketbirds: Revolution!”, it has been a real adventure for us working on “Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken” and when it came down to putting together the launch trailer, it made me realize just how far the Rocketbirds have come! The one thing I really wanted for this launch trailer was for it to use the awesome Rocketbirds Theme song, which New World Revolution put together especially for the game! So, here it is, enjoy!

EnglishSelect a Language:

Countries: , , , ,

PlayStation Store (via PS3, PSP and Media Go)

Hello everybody, me again! It’s Wednesday so that means new content for you to download and enjoy! So what have we got coming to the store for you today?

Well first off there is Okabu, I saw this game a couple of months back and this is a game that anyone can have fun with. Take to the skies and guide cloud-whale brothers Kumulo and Nimbe on their epic adventure. Save the once-peaceful lands of Okabu from the diabolical Doza and their army of industrial contraptions.

We also have Worms Crazy Golf available from today with a hilarious mixture of the explosive action of Worms and the puzzle based challenges of crazy golf! All of the trademark Worms humour, comic violence, and cartoon visuals are present, combined with addictive yet accessible golf gameplay. Who ever though golf could be so much fun?

Don’t miss out on Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken also available from the store today. Play as Hardboiled Chicken and use a slew of weapons and explosives to destroy the evil penguin regime. Step into this stunning cinematic platform adventure game offering full solo and co-op campaigns with stereoscopic 3D support.

And finally I wanted to mention that Need for Speed: The Run demo is available from today. I am sure I don’t need to tell you all about it but if you do not know about this game yet I would recommend you download and check this.

*UPDATE*

It has come to my attention that there have been some issues with customers who bought the Borderlands Game Of The Year edition. I just wanted to let you know that we are aware of this problem and our technicians are working to get this corrected for you by providing a new Borderland full game file to at the to top of your download list. This should be done hopefully within a week.

Well that’s it for another ‘Heads Up’, see you in the comments section!
