I never played Ehrgeiz, but I hear it's very popular with the FinalFantasy fanboys.
What's with Musashi being only playable on the PSP? I want to play it on my PS3!
Since it's summer, there are TWO diving games. Aquanaut's Holiday is actually getting a sequel in form of the previous announced AQUA, that got renamed into Aquanauts's Holiday. I guess we will see more of that at E3. Since I liked Endless Ocean, I'm really looking forward to that.
Also RAYCRISIS is a very nice shooter, though I prefer RAYSTORM released two weeks earlier.

EU update as always depressing..
But perhaps they only went with a simplistic approach together with the echochrome release?
Also read wilbo's blog.
All in all a not so great week. But 4 demos in the US store and finally echochrome in the EU is OK I guess. I give this week a 2 out of 5.
Next week is E3 week, so hopefully they update frequently with trailers and stuff. I don't exactly recall what they did last year. Let's wait and see. :

The main character is a mannequin made of shadows, which players must lead across a path made of shadows in each level.[4] Players use the PlayStation Move motion controller and the PlayStation Eye camera to rotate levels and control light and shadows. The PlayStation Move controller functions as a light source in the game, and by pointing the light source at different angles to the objects in each level, players can manipulate the shadows of the objects to give the mannequin a path to the goal.

The Dungeon of Florennum is a location in Swordigo. The King was imprisoned here when his kingdom was overrun. Swordigo help dungeon of florennum.
