‘Heads-Up’ PlayStation Store Update (15th October 2009)

@hazelam – umm, you conveniently neglected the fact that i stated that the VC in japan has 500 games compared with 300 in europe, and decided to compare it with the US. the fact that the difference from the US is small is irrelevant, i’m merely pointing out the fact that nintendo also has wild variations in content among the three regions (eg. 126-83-68 nes games). you troll about this every week in regards to the differences in sony’s regions and yet holding up the vc as a shining example of the way it should be done is somehow ironic.

Where is Tetris for Australia? The whole world has it except Australia. Also, this is a Store Update?

This is poor. Sorry guys. I bought a PSP Go and I have no games for it. What a waste. No wonder EB Games will not stock the PSP Go in Australia, we get nothing.

Covenantt –> Exact pour l’anglais pourri ou pour Obscure ? Lol. En tout cas c’est limite de foutre le jeu sur le Store à l’arrache sans qu’il soit même affiché dans “Nouveautés” ! :-S

Translation (lol) : This is strange to put Obscure into the Store and not to show it on the “News” page !

Might pickup a dynamic theme, although I was tehre was some way to preview them before purchase otherwise nothing really for me this week. Which is kinda good considering all the full retail games heading our way. Although I would have liked to see something for my go

???

“umm.. no. the biggest individual game seller on psn is battlefield 1943, which has sold around 600,000 copies if i recall (not sure if that’s just for psn or psn and xblm).”

FF7 sold 1 million within 1-2 days i read about it not bad for a ps1 game.

btw if you wanna get cheap easy way to get trophies get detuned within a half a hour or sooner you get 100% of trophies.

& lastly today is friday its U2-AT & FO3-GOTY for me day, enjoy yours as well ppl.

first off i must thank ND for making the best game ever released.
seriously, i dont know how you guys do it, but each game raises the bar even more.
congratz.
now can i suggest what should be your new game?
crash bandicoot.
yea, i know ND no longer owns the rights but where theres a will theres a way.
BTW mike, when are we getting the R&C demo?
its out in 10 days and still no demo

“FF7 sold 1 million within 1-2 days i read about it not bad for a ps1 game”.

err, no. FF7 has solid in total 100,000 copies across all regions on the PSN.

and thanks skookie, i’m picking up my copy of uncharted 2 in two hours. i’m easy fodder if anyone sees me in multiplayer.

and you twistedintoform continue to ignore the fact that despite having every difficulty scee have nintendo also have the added issue of games not originating on one of their own consoles yet still putting out 1, 2 and sometime 3 or more games a week while scee can barely manage one a month.
by the way, yet another ps1 tomb raider has been released in the us while we’re still waiting for one, this british game that cannot be bought in europe.
maybe i’m wrong in expecting a decent level of service from any company i spend my money with, but i know you’re wrong for defending their failures.

maybe i should start talking about the arcade.
about how almost all those titles get released worldwide the same day, and every single one has a demo.
and don’t tell m,e “ms doesn’t have to localise the games into all the eu languages” because it seems neither do scee, or have most of europe still not got the fallout dlc?
i’ve said on the forums the best way to uncover a liar is to spot the inconsistancies in their stories, well scee is full of them.

Finalhearts54: Non exact pour Obscure t’inquiètes pas.

Clair se foutent bien de nous, un exemple, ce site contient même pas le français, donc on trouve JP & US > UK !! > EU & AUS > FR & petits pays européens que les japonnais et les américains ne savent même pas où ils se trouvent sur une carte tellement ils nous prennent pour de la daube tellement on pue tellement il faut parler anglais seulement sur ce blog(SARKO inside héhé blagounette) .

When will Final Fantasy VII?on Thursday there will? please answer me..

Thanks for .deTuned!! I completed it in 15min now working on Uno!

@hazelam – i’m not ignoring it, they’re simply different models. sce and nintendo (predominantly 1st party) may have different business objectives, simply flodding the store with ps1 shovelware every week isn’t in the best interests.

you continue to presume that it is easy to re-publish and/or to acquire the necessary rights to games despite being told on several occassions that it’s not. tomb raider may have been developed by a british company, but its publisher (at least in europe) is now owned by a japanese company. acquisitions, mergers etc. require vasts amount of legal documentation especially in regard to transfer of rights.

i have a question for you?. if the rights were acquired for re-publish and digital distribution for the UK, should we wait for the french, the germans,…? or vice versa if the UK is more difficult should they have to wait for us?

as for xblm, they aren’t trying to re-publish 15 year old 3rd party xbox games. their submission process is different for content, it’s not true that all content is available in all territories, but yes you’re right that it does seem to have fewer discrepancies.

and regarding the fallout 3 dlc, microsoft had an exclusivity deal with bethesda on the dlc. without knowing the full details of the deal, it’s hard to know if that would be a reason for why it’s not available in certain countries. yeah, it sucks, but they obviously wanted the ms dollars more than the psn money. all you get from their website and forums is that it’ll be coming elsewhere eventually..

Hi mike, just thought i’d mention two things I just noticed in the store. Firstly the .deTuned description says [enter address here if going on packaging]. Secondly the buzz quiz pack says it takes up ???MB of space.

Just thought you might want to know.

When will Zombie Apocalypse come to Europe? I saw it past week on the US Store and I couldn’t buy it

I’m a spanish user of psp go and I wish to know if sony will do something with the poor downloads for psp. I want to play titles in concrete, for example “final fantasy crisis core” and I can’t play with this game because is inavaiable in playstation store… my question is… what happened with the usuaries of psp go?? we have rigths for play the same games of the fisical stores or not? I’m waiting for an answer… thanks for your attencion.

did any off you guys see the american PSN update all
the stuff we get plus 100 times more stuff i don’t get it howcome sony america can get the job done and get the users what they want and sony europe just makes up excuses and gives us all the crap we don’t need one thing i can say sony won’t be console N1 this gen not with the kinda crap they keep sending us i know i am being harsh but this is no way 2 threat your fans

post 316
they may have made a MS deal but it’s kinda weird that almost all playstation region has the DLC even the dutch store doesen’t have the DLC and we still missing a lot off stuff sony europe said was released in europe

When will Portuguese store receive the Fallout 3 DLC?

forgetting my opinions about whether or not scee are competant or NOT i still have a problem with the store, the need for speed videos will still not download.
clicking the link just downloads a png image file.
this will be the fifth, i think, time i’ve reported this, but don’t worry i know scee have trouble with videos so i won’t expect it fixed before november, if at all.

and wasn’t there supposed to have been previews of the new dynamic themes?
well i don’t see any.

Surely this is the wrong forum to be venting frustration at SCEE. Surely there are more direct links to SCEE themselves, rather than putting it in Mikes shoulders.

JSYK

twisted, the reason the fallout dlc is not available for most of europe because it’s only in english.
if the new policy is to release the english language content when it’s ready then there should be quite a bit more content coming.
maybe part of the deal to get the fallout dlc on ps3 was that scee actually release it this time, unlike with oblivion, bet you ms used that as a bargaining chip when trying to buy exclusivity on the dlc.
“we’ll let you release the dlc in europe, sony wont”
and in answer to your question, yes, when it’s ready it should be released, even if the english language version is last to be finished, at least that way somebody in europe will be able to get the content instead of nobody.

we are not putting it on his shoulders we are only stating the obvious
they keep saying stuff that they can’t promise it’s kinda like propoganda if i wanted 2 hear that i could just put on the news HazelAM is just saying what is true they keep saying 2 much and most off it just a lie atleast their other NA and JP isen’t about talking big with updates they just put it out look at NA update it’s just ridiculous i am missing content left and right at my regions store it’s just annoying that everytime you see a update and wanna check for that game or content it just isen’t there while other country’s get advantage over other it’s like the other country has more ppl so they give them most content and the other country is 2 small lets give them less just because you get less money out off them

OK Sony I Have Had Enough Waiting.

Please Release Gran Turismo 1 and Gran Turismo 2 for PS-One Classics.
Now that GT-PSP has come out. theres no real resone not to release them. i am sure all the GT fans would agree. even if you release the GT2 discs as seporate file.sOne File(the arcade Disc). Second File(The Sim Disc) theres ample memory stick space now adays.

When will Final Fantasy VII?on Thursday there will? please answer me

Hy Mike please don’t forget about us ok

I got this from another forum:”Bethesda decided not to release the DLC for the following countries: Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Spain and Switzerland”
Can somone tell me if this is true?

wieso kein god of war für psp für die deuschen das unfer

Still No comment on the Lumines stuff that is free for every other store?

I`m a bit sick of the lack of proper support for the PSPGO in the EU.
And so are the two out of three custommers who traded their GOs back in today. I`m not getting anymore of these things into my store. As I`m sick of of the crap support. (dont get me started on the so called reps that got sent to the store on release day)

i see america got gta: chinatown wars yesterday.
I still have both my old psp3000 and pspGo, i like my Go, but i’m sick of it being unused.
I don’t know play my umd games on my old psp or sell them and wait? silent hill:origins, mgs portable ops, tales of eternia, star ocean 1&2, cc: ff7, ff1&2.

psOne Wishlist:

-both oddworlds
-heart of darkness
-silent hill
-metal gear solid
-resident evil 1&2&3
-ff VIII&IX
-chrono chross
-legend of mana
-diablo

With these games released no iphone or any other cellconsole_wannabe would have any chance with our psp’s

ah i forgot Vagrant Story, another BIG classic

Hi Mike! I was wondering what you said about Obscure having some issues with it cause i found it on Store through searhing and i downloaded it and it works. But i have noticed that it has been removed now from Store so was this faulty that i downloaded and if it was, will Sony refund my 30 euros?

ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha still postin on a tuesday lol

Diablo? PSP? EPIC!

When will Final Fantasy VII?on Thursday there will? please answer me……..

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2009/10/coming-to-psn-this-week-oddworl d-psone-classics/

you do know those oddworld games are only meant for the american psn not the european if i am correct we will probably never see any off those games sony promised for ps1 they will only be released on the US store considering sony europe sucks so much in getting things done you probably don’t need 2 get your hopes up for any ps1 games this year maybe not even next year i give it a 2-4 year delay considering how fast sony europe is
