Not an entirely bad way but the controller nearly got launched last night when I ran out of time after quite a few missed attempts to get a nearby spectra. I like the music. Game-play has a loco-roco (ps3 version at least) feel to it - you repeat levels after opening one more part, etc. Also similar in the way that the controls are a little indirect, and it takes a while to get your guy to go where you want. One thing I would like is for it to take up the whole screen - the pixel-junk logo adds a black band across the bottom which really upsets the aesthetics of the display. An overlay where it is or on the bottom-left would be much nicer. It’s frustrating!

Even with the YouTube upload the way it is that's still a great feature. Does anyone know if any of the upcoming marquee titles like LittleBigPlanet, Resistance 2, or Killzone 2 will be supporting it?

I think all the bronze ones are hard. Or at least, you have to go out of your way to get them. I haven't gotten a single trophy and I only intend to go for the silver trophy, which you get when you basically clear the whole game and get all five spectra in all ten gardens. There are no cropping options with the YouTube upload unfortunately. It's still a really cool feature. I just played through some of garden 9. Wow, this game is cool.

I don't really play games for trophies or achievements but it is a bit disheartening to hear that Eden's trophies are all hard to get. Are the lower level ones (bronze, right?) especially hard to get? Also, does the YouTube upload always crop the video down into a little box like that or can you record and upload in fullscreen?
