Trine Hitting the PS3, Pigs Flying, and Ultra Realistic Female Robots
Posted by Snarkasaur on October 2nd, 2009
What are all the things we would really like to see but feared we never would, Alex?
You are correct, Snarkasaur!
But wait, skeptics, it appears as though one of our hopeless wishes has come true because Trine is finally going to hit the PlayStation Network. And folks, the timing couldn’t be worse if they’d decided to release it the day after a nationwide blackout.
A question to Spawn Kill readers: If you were a publisher of independent games and had been sitting on a well-reviewed title but were waiting to release it because of concerns otherwise best left unmentioned, would you then choose to release said game on its potentially strongest platform a mere week after Uncharted 2 and Brutal Legend have their epic opening day face off? In case it weren’t obvious, you would not. This week would have been a fine choice! Next week even could have seen a better sales rake-in. October 22nd… not a good plan.
For those of us who’ve been impatiently waiting, chances are positive we’ll buy the supposed 20 dollar game anyway. The official price wasn’t released, but the game is down to 20 bones on the PC. The European PS3 release cost about 30 bucks. So who knows, right? I seem to remember them offering the initial price for the PS3 North American release as 20, but after all the ridiculous nonsense that’s been associated with the release of Trine, I’m not sure we can speculate anything with certainty anymore.
But one thing is for sure. Those realistic female robots can’t be too far off if Trine has actually been slated. Stay tuned for weekly realistic female robots updates.

It’s about damn time. I held off on buying this for PC because I really wanted to snag the PSN version because of the lower pricepoint. However, now that this may not be the case (possibly, maybe) I have to weigh my options again.
Regardless, I still think I’d rather play this with a controller.
