Rumor: William Shatner next celeb to be in PAIN
If VG247's supposed PlayStation Network calendar is to be believed, Star Trek star and Priceline.com spokesperson William Shatner will be the next celebrity offered for download in PAIN. SCEE hasn't confirmed the validity of this information, only saying "the PSN roadmap is for internal purposes" and "it's all subject to change." VG247 notes the Shatner addon will be available on March 19th.

New PAIN downloaders experiencing not-so-amusing glitch
Direct-feed video of the glitch shows how the game is rendered unplayable ... because nothing gets rendered! Unfortunately, this glitch doesn't appear to be affecting a small group of people. A quick look at this thread shows a lynch mob asking for Idol Minds' head. Once again, this being the holiday season, it seems unlikely that affected individuals will get a patch in the immediate future.

Penny Arcade: Episode 2 features game-ending glitch, patch coming next year
The problem has since been identified, and will be patched soon. However, due to the holidays, SCE QA is taking a little break. That means this patch won't be available until the new year, in January. Right now, it's unclear if a patch will fix any current save files. Considering the Penny Arcade Adventures aren't too long, starting over shouldn't be too bad -- but we're sure players would rather not.
Trophies: Watchmen

The PlayStation Network puzzler gets Trophies. Check 'em out here.
PixelJunk Monsters coming to PSP
Looks like more PS3 games are coming to the PSP. The popular tower defense game, PixelJunk Monsters, is heading to the PSP. In fact, there's going to be more content than ever before. This is great news, especially because we're not too fond of using Remote Play to stream games. We can't wait to see more when the game comes out in 2009. To find out more about the game, check out all the news on PS3 Fanboy.

OMG! It's a Mahjong game! Okay, while it might not be the most exciting announcement in gaming, we're still impressed by how much effort is going into this downloadable title from Creat Studios. There will be narrated story to go along with the Mahjong solitaire gameplay, and a few new gameplay modes unique to the PSN game. Check out the Trophies for the game here, and let us know if you're excited.
Update: According to our commenters, looks like its Mahjong solitaire. Hopefully, we'll see more that'll appease more traditional players.
Lumines Supernova priced and dated
Q Entertainment is bringing us an early Christmas present -- they have just announced that Lumines Supernova will be released on Tuesday, December 23rd and priced at $14.99. The game will feature two brand new modes: Dig Down Mode, where you attempt to reach the bottom of a playfield already filled with blocks, and Sequencer Mode, which allows you to create your own music utilizing different sounds and loops. Another highlight, of course, is the LittleBigPlanet skin that will be included in the Challenge Mode. Finally, Trophies will be supported at launch -- check out the list right here.
[UPDATE] Sadly, Europeans will have a little longer to wait. They won't be getting the title until "early 2009."

Street Fighter HD not coming to Europe until 2009
"There are reasons why we can't always release games when we want to, but we are working hard on getting the game out as soon as possible," a Capcom spokesperson explained. Well, honestly -- we're wondering what the reasons are. Do we blame Capcom? Sony? Or do we blame the Grinch for stealing Street Fighter away from Europe?

Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix sells 250k units
Why is Ryu showing us his pearly whites and giving us a thumbs up? That's because Capcom has just announced they have sold an impressive 250,000 copies of Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix across the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. A breakdown of the sales numbers between the two consoles was not released. The game was released on November 25th, so it hasn't even been a month since its debut. According to Capcom, it also broke both day one and week one sales records, and it will "most likely" go on to break the 30-days sales record as well. It might even become the highest grossing digital title ever.
What did you expect? Capcom took an old-school favorite, improved upon it, and unleashed it onto all the SF fanboys. Street Fighter forever!
