US PlayStation owners may have just gotten their hands on Trine, and it might need a patch, but PC owners have had the game for a good four or five months now. Southpeak has released a patch for the retail edition of the game bringing it to version 1.05 and it fixes a variety of bugs.
Most of the fixes are for bugs, but there's a few technical optimizations to make the gameplay experience a lot smoother.

We waited, and waited, and waited for Trine to finally make the leap from the PC to the Playstation Network. A bit late with a quiet release, we finally saw the 3 player co-op title sneak it's way on the Playstation Network. While many of us were happy to see the PSN version of Trine finally come about, we have some disappointing news.

We've waited quite some time for Trine to show up on the Playstation Network, and its time has finally come. Nobilis Games has finished the games translation to the PSN, and this Thursday the beautiful 3-player-co-op title Trine will arrive in style.

Ok, picture this, but more... sequel-ly
Good news for fans of the delightful co-op title Trine! In an interview with Frozenbyte's CEO, Lauri Hyvärinen, Patrick Klepek of G4.com asked the question that's certainly been on our minds since we got our hands on this game: "Will there be more?" His response?
There will be certainly more Trine, but in what form, platforms and such, that still remains a small secret of ours.
There you have it. More Trine means more co-op, and that's a good thing. Of course, we hope that the sequel won't be plagued with the same woes that have gone down with the first title's release across multiple platforms. Patrick and Lauri go on in the interview to discuss what influenced the game, the selection of the three characters, and even the challenges of doing co-op on PC. A very good interview that's worth a full read.

After almost 4 months of waiting, PlayStation owners will finally get their hands on the three player co-op title Trine. Developed by FrozenByte Software, the game is a physics based puzzle/platformer that puts players in the role of the Wizard, Thief, or Knight. We really enjoyed the PC game, and have high expectations for the PSN version - we just wish the extra time was used to add online co-op. Sadly, it's still missing. Last we heard the game is priced at $20.
Soutpeak Games has announced the retail version of Trine should be available on store shelves right now. The digital version was released earlier this year on services like Steam, and the PlayStation Network version...well lets just say we hope to see it before the holidays.
The three player local co-op title has an MSRP of $29.99, but right now you can snag it from Amazon for $19.99 - that's cheaper than the Steam version! Don't forget to check out our review of the game.

One of the biggest surprises so far this year has been Trine. A charming puzzle platformer, the PC version of Trine earned a solid review from us. We've been looking forward to the game's release on consoles. The PS3 version is coming first, but it being held back by quality testing. The additional rigors of testing for the PSN release are taking more time than expected, according to Frozenbyte CEO Lauri Hyvärinen.
No release date has been announced for Trine's PS3 release. Publisher Atlus will be bringing the thief, wizard, and knight to the Xbox 360 at some point, as well..

I guess this is a morning for soundtracks, too bad this one isn't free like Invincible Tiger's. The Trine official soundtrack is out and and available for purchase. The price? About 12 euros. But you can snag the amazing main theme for free, and we do recommend that.
Composer Ari Pulkkinen has it on his official site, along with some works of other games he did music for - like Super Stardust HD and Shadowgrounds. It looks like Ari has some good taste in co-op games at least! Now we just need the PlayStation Network version to finally be released and all is well with the world.

While much has been made about the PC version of Trine's pricing, we can't deny even at full price it's a solid co-op title worth picking up. But now we can throw that out the window, at least for a week, as Steam currently has the game for 25% off - or $22.49.
This puts the pricing very close to the $20 price point of the yet to be released PlayStation 3 version. Perhaps today will be the day we see it on Sony's platform? One can only hope. If not you still have one week to take advantage of the Steam deal, after that, it's back to paying full price like the rest of us.
Thanks roland for the tip.

We've been enjoying Trine on our PC for the past month, despite a small glitch. PlayStation 3 owners are chomping at the bit to get their hands on the physics based platformer, and unfortunately, it looks like they'll be waiting a bit longer.
One of the game's developers commented on the official boards this week that the game won't be coming out on PSN this Thursday along with the other releases. In fact, they really aren't quite sure when it's coming out.
