Like I did in my last post, I'll once again be dishing out the details on a few more PlayStation Network titles that were shown during E3 08.
Let's start it off with Rag Doll Kung Fu: Fists of Plastic. Developed by Tarsier Studios, it is, in fact, based upon the original RDKF. You and three other ragdolls will be able to beat the crap out of each other online and off, in addition to unlocking trophies and assets for further character customization.
Did you enjoy PAIN? Well I hope you aren't reading this while balancing boiling water over your head, because an expansion pack is coming out soon and I wouldn't want you to inadvertently burn yourself from all the excitement.
PAIN: Amusement Park ($5.99) contains a couple of new modes: "HOT n COLD" (find the hidden teddy bear through clues), "Clown Toss" (a remix of "Mime Toss"), "Fun with Explosives" (4-player: detonate as many explosives as possible), "Trauma" (multiplayer: cause yourself the most pain), and "Call the Shot" (multiplayer: choose objects to hit in a single launch).
Lastly, there's PixelJunk Eden, which you've probably heard about before. Basically, you play as this little creature that swings from plant to plant while destroying enemies and collecting things before the timer runs out. It's worth noting that rumble, PSP Remote Play, and trophies are all supported, as well as co-op for you and two others.
Jordan Devore is Destructoid's PC gaming manager and founding ginger editor. He is said to be easy to love but difficult to know. When Samit inquired about his curious bio photo Jordan simply replied: "bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

The fact that it's based on the original Rag-Doll Kung Fu should make it SW33T! I remember playing that game with my mates so much during IT classes a year or 2 ago.
Pain does not SUCK A LOT. Quite the opposite. 4 player Pain is one of the most fun things going for local multiplayer on the ps3 right now. It's no rockband, but when you want to get a quick game going it's hard to beat.
I'm happy there is a new map coming because we've blown the crap out of that city already.
Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
Also I hope PixelJunk eden does well, because it looks amazing.
