I am pleased as punch (see what I'm doing here) to announce that as part of Getting Back to the PG my first complimentary game played to the point of satiety (Good LORD, you expect me to finish all these PS+/Games w/Gold titles? Please) and therefore has been deleted from my PS3 hard drive is KickBeat! (Applause)

Far as I could tell, KickBeat combines the far-eastern fighting game aesthetic with the old-tyme rhythm game, with Guitar Hero-like art design and animation to boot. I slogged through the tutorial and tried to do the first song but in three attempts couldn't go the full length without failing so I blurted out "FUCK THIS" and deleted the game. Now on to the next victim...

Edit: The next PS+ game I picked off of my PS3 hard drive was a little ditty called Kung Fu Rabbit, which continues this martial artsy motif with a cutesy little puzzle-platformer. So far it's enough to hold my attention, so I won't make a whole other blog post just for that.
