From 1 up :
Sony Funding 'About 40' Games for PS3 Network

by Patrick Klepek, 11/01/2006 11 of 11 users recommend this story. In terms of online gaming, Xbox Live is the bar. Whatever criticisms people have of the service (and plenty are legitimate), Microsoft's set the standard. Xbox Live Arcade has become a big part of Xbox 360's online success so far, and while the "semi-official" blog Three Speech spoke with Sony President of Worldwide Studios Phil Harrison, the Sony chief made clear they're making a serious commitment. Right now, Harrison says they're funneling money to develop "about 40" games for PS3's network. From his wording, this sounds like 40 original titles, rather than the PlayStation 1 games that will eventually become playable on PS3 or releases from third-parties like Konami, who has been a huge champion for XBL Arcade so far.
That doesn't mean the approach is completely the same, though. Harrison critizes the many "retro 2D games" on Microsoft's service." But don't be restricted by ghettoising games into a particular genre, or a particular display mechanic ... we're pushing the 3D capabilities of the PlayStation 3," he says.
He does point out one important distinction between the two and that's the bundled hard drive in every PS3, which means developers aren't limited by the 50MB file constraints imposed on XBL Arcade titles. Then again, does anyone expect Microsoft to abide by that rule once Sony starts breaking it?

Sony has announced all PlayStation Store games will be $14.99 or less
 

flow looks very nice and would definitely make it on my list.. but for $15 ?...hmmm. but that price is comparable to pc games of that nature. so it seems reasonable.

Hopefully you'll be able to demo it before throwing down the cash

I would say yes. Xbox Live demos all arcade titles. Sorry I hit reply instead of quote. In response to Jumputt's post a few above.

I did read somewhere that all of them have demo's available and that the pricing at 14.99 is for original content not traditional arcade titles.... there is no word on re-released titles as of yet.
