After seeing the trailers I had already planned on getting it but I don't want to dump anymore money into dlc or xbla on the 360 since my warranty is almost up and the damn thing already don't read discs unless I open and shut the drive 10 damn times.

However, the PSN version might not come out in North America. Atlus only has the rights to publish Trine on XBLA. It's up to Nobilis to decide if the PSN version will show up anywhere else.<br><br>Atlus does not own the rights to the PSN version so it's like a split publishing deal. Strange, I know, but before this announcement there wasn't an XBLA version of Trine in development. Sorry to confuse you, but it is coming to PSN.

Ugh, here's hoping the Hong Kong PSN gets the game still, seeing as I can easily get PSN Cards for that store.

Either way, still a major disappointment…
