SOCOM: Confrontation now available on PSN, also MotorStorm Pacific Rift demo photo

If you didn’t know, PlayStation Store was down for a few hours today. It is now back up and packed with a bunch of new content. The premiere addition to the store today (and possibly the reason it was down) was the full-length game, SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Confrontation. The title is available for the meager price of $39.99 and looks to be fairly decent if the beta has any bearing on the final product.

In addition to SOCOM, Sony has also tossed out a demo for upcoming racer MotorStorm Pacific Rift. The demo features one level, but allows both single-player and split-screen play. The game also features vehicles, which can be driven fast and furiously.

I haven’t had my fill of SOCOM: Confrontation quite yet, so look forward to our review in the near future. As far as MotorStorm is concerned, I’m lightly curious. Racers and I typically don’t get along. There’s something about turning cars that go fast that I just don’t quite get. Anytime I play a racing title I might as well start out on a wall or already wrecked because it usually only takes a few seconds for either of those things to happen.

The Motorstorm demo is alright, but I only played it for a bit. Also, anyone with a PSP should get Dead Head Fred off of the PSN store. It's a really spiffy dark comedy/action/horror/sci-fi/etc. game.

I don't know about Motorstorm: PR. I played the demo a month or so ago when it came with the qore episode and I wasn't really impressed. It didn't seem like much of an upgrade from the first one. Although...it is only a demo.

I'm all over that MotorStorm demo, but ignoring SOCOM. That series has always sucked.

piece of crap SOCOM doesn't even work!??!

How about instead of plugging a game that obviously doesn't deserve it, you go and find us an email address which we can apply to get our 60 dollars back?

The servers took a hit. Should have been anticipated off in the beta, but give it a week.
