Anyone try out Crash Commando from the PlayStation Network yet? It's very reminiscent of Soldat on the PC. Basically it's a multiplayer shooter set on a 2D plane but with 3D graphics. However stages have multiple planes that you can travel in between.
Right now the game modes are limited to DM, TDM, CTF, and a mode where you have to plant bombs on the opposing team's objective points.
The weapons are pretty standard fare with your usual knife, pistol, assault rifle, rocket launcher, etc. You also get to drive a few vehicles that even have rocket boosters (you also have a jet pack on foot) allowing you to ascend/descend vertically.
Crash Command isn't terribly original but it's made with polish and plays well. For ten bucks, I'm having some fun with this game.
Almost bought it, just because it looked so much like Metal Slug (one of my all-time favourites), but I just can't see myself playing such a thing in multiplayer mode... give me tons of stupid (not stupid console gamers, stupid AI) enemies running towards me and I'll buy it in an instant :)
Not very much like Metal Slug at all in terms of gameplay. You do get bots to fight against in single player mode, but it still has a very multiplayer feel to it. You'd be disappointed if you expect an oldschool arcade shooter from Crash Commando.
If you have an extra ten dollars to burn though, you could do worse. But there's still one or two titles I should have purchased on GOG before going with Crash Commando.
I think my best purchase on PSN (actually I purchased it twice, once for my PS3 and once for my PS3) was Riff: Everyday Shooter. I know it seems too expensive, but it's just so much fun.

is there anywhere with a list of all the stuf on the PSN? Not having a PS3 I've got no idea what sort of thing is out.
