Afternoon all; second post of the week, sick of me yet?
We have a varied offering of content this week, but the big news is that we’ll have Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars available for download on Friday! Also available on Friday is the release of the full game Hannah Montana: Rock out the Show, as well as four packs for the game too. That’s not all for the PSP this week however, as we also have WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2010, Marvel Superhero Squad, Astro Boy and G-Force available for you. The latest mini title is also added to the store, in the shape of Red Bull X Fighters.
For the PS3, the demo for NBA 2K10 is ready for you to try, as well as the first packs for EyePet (which is released in stores this week) so you can start customising your pet with some new content already. There are also free packs for Midnight Club Los Angeles and Cross Edge, and as usual more content for Rock Band and Guitar Hero.
We also have two new dynamic themes available this week, for the titles EyePet and Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time, and trailers for Battlefield Bad Company 2 and Dragon Age: Origins.
We’ve also added new titles into the Special Offers section this week too, with the full rundown of al content listed below.

Onlineatron: Cant you just buy it from the us store then?, I do and it works fine!

Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:13 pm by Chimpanzee
Oh, and I assume you WANT us to go to the US store to get the Ratchet & Clank demo?

Can I ask a question. I think I aswell as many other people have waited enough
When are we getting the avatars from gamescon?
I mean, apart from telling us they are coming you haven’t told us anything else?
Will they all be paid?
Will there be game integration? (unlock a trophy, get an avatar)
How much will they cost?
Will there be any new free avatars?
I’m abit astounded that after all of these weeks we’ve heard NOTHING about them.
Please respond Sony!
Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:31 pm by Mike Kebby
When I have some news on avatars I’ll let you all know.

when i say region locks i dont mean games on ps3
only dlc are region lock you need that same uk game & same uk dlc to play it
our psn ids however is not allow on scea psn no links on XMB to it.
if you make a account like mike did “dutch account ” is that a other shot in a foot lol
,
then painfully trying to get a usa psn card on a Web-site could by 15 upto a 100 for a $10 $20 $50 they other ways but then……
you need to use your debit card to pay for it & post & package.
thanks but no thanks i wont be doing that, i just wait for ell to freeze over before we get ours.

I am glad I am not the only one that finds the constant whining in on here tiresome. It’s a pity there’s not an ignore button.

You know who I feel sorry for…. All those people who have just bought their PS3.
They’re probably thinking ‘Playstation has always been great in the past… I hope their store updates are as good as my 360′s’
WELL GUESS WHAT … They’re not!
116
Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:28 pm by BiosNova
Hey Mike
I think this is a pretty lacking update for the PS3 side of things, plenty of content for PSP users though so thats good, i understand you can’t have amazing updates each week!
Although it is getting annoying for week after week we still don’t get any of the good PS1 classics, i know your trying but i still wanted to leave my feedback!
Have a good day reponding to comments!
117
Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:30 pm by AcidCrashX
@Onlineatron
actually.. i really don’t think they would be thinking that because they missed out on all the contact you’ve either already played or don’t want.
118
Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:30 pm by HARRY2780
Hey Mike
The US store uploaded GTA CTW on the monday when it was due to release on Tuesday,
Any chance of us getting it today with the STore upload later? Go on, you know you want to!!
thanks

Hey mike
I dont usually post on here but im quite an unseen regular as i check the blog everyday (cause i have no life obviously).
Anyway, just a quick question really, doubt you will know the answer but ill ask. I recieved need for speed shift free with my new PS3 slim i got a few weeks back and i checked my hotmail yesterday and i had an email from EA with a code to unlock the porsche cayman s, however the code was 16 characters long, whereas psn codes are 12 characters long. Any clue as to how i would get a proper working code?
Cheers in advance for any help dude (added you on psn by the way, saw your id on twitter and wanted to compare trophies
)

I’m gonna ask the same question I ask every week on here – any news on Hustle Kings Mike? Cheers

Ok, I don’t care anymore.
Realy, I had high expectation for the Store and everything that Sony would offer.
Then comunitie gets involved trough the blog and explaines wat it wants and complained when it went wrong. But now I don’t care anymore. I don’t expect anything anymore. There are no changes and I don’t believen anymore in the product and services.
This will go down in Sony’s history as the moment they lost…
So sad.

Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:37 pm by Suzzopher
Still no PSone games
125
Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:37 pm by Skookie30
yes i quite agree mike ask them to add it on so i could
put it to good use, unlike some they like the [DELETED] Stale Dear Lackless Content so we should shut the hell up, we dont what fanboys here
we talking about content or lack off topic, & not criticise ppl.
126
Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:40 pm by ljforlozz

:S

Why, hello there.
Nice update, decent mix of stuff and if there’s nothing new to demo, that’s why there’s no demos.
Chinatown Wars for me, that’ll do, and I’ll see what’s in the EyePet lucky dip pack too.
130
Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:46 pm by Mike Kebby
I know people are frustrated this week, and there are lots of questions about where is this title, that title etc – we can only release content that has been submitted and passed QA. We are not deliberately sitting on content not giving it to you.
131
Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:47 pm by ljforlozz
I think us user should all send E-mail’s to the companys who we need to bug to give us our ps1 classics!! not mike anymore ,,, I had a dream that we bug CAPCOM , square enix , And others and we get the games!!!!!!
132
Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:47 pm by ljforlozz
Was a good dream too

I’m starting to regret buying a PSP Go. There aren’t a lot of games available in the PSN store. What PSP Go owner would want to play a game with guinea pigs? I don’t get it.
…………………………………………………
It s a third world service compared to the u.s store and the japanese store is leagues ahead of both,time to sell my go i think.

its only scee losing money so dony worry mike we dont care . keep [DELETED] updates flowing will give me a gd reason to get a 360
Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:54 pm by Mike Kebby
Well next week is going to be a mammoth update in comparison – I can tell you all that much.
139
Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:52 pm by MadmanButter
Mike, just wanted to say. You mentioned that you can only put up whats been submitted. I went on the US blog yesterday and asked about the Oddworld games (I know you can’t comment lol. I’m not asking you to)
The main chap at Oddworld Inhabitants (Lorne Lanning) said that they would hopefully come to our store too. But its now a “PSN Decision”?
What does he mean by that?
Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:55 pm by Mike Kebby
Very strange reply – we don’t decide what content to release, publishers submit content, we pass it, then release it – we don’t ‘decide’ what to release from other publishers catalogues.

@ seany1
great! go cry about it over on their boards… >_>

WOOP WOOP, (sorry).
To bad there is no RCF demo. But I’ll get it from the US store…

Mike,please answer me about final fantasy VIII !!!!!!
Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:56 pm by Mike Kebby
Don’t have a date for you yet I’m afraid.
143
Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:55 pm by twistedintoform
to whoever asked about the uncharted 2 collectors edition, if you got it from game online they will have sent you a UK redemption code (since it’s a UK exclusive) which won’t work on the irish store.
sales for critter crunch have been very poor til now. some people seem to be under the misconception that stuff sells in the millions on PSN, when this isn’t the case. majority of ps3 psn titles sell less than 50,000.
ratchet & clank isn’t released to retail (in the UK at least) until 6th november, whereas it’s out in the US on tuesday. it’s not uncommon to target a demo in a certain timeframe prior to the actual game release, so with the game coming later, i’d expect the demo to arrive next week.
publishers decide if games are region locked, though i don’t think any are on ps3. only the dlc is. xbox360 has even stricter regional content restrictions.

am pleased to see GTA chinatown wars on there for tomorrow – here’s to hoping it goes better than obscure did
145
Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:55 pm by seany1

Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:57 pm by Mike Kebby
That delay in that game was NOTHING to do with us seany1.

Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:58 pm by Mike Kebby
There will not be no, sorry
148
Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:57 pm by Solid_Snake1987
Hmmm no Disgaea again. So much for next few weeks NIS. Is a long game so I understand that it could take a while. Don’t suppose you know if it’s out in the next few weeks Mike?
On the update front I don’t think it’s as abysmal as people make out. Few free things I can get, and more special offers can only be a good thing. Seriously have to resist the urge to get the EyePet theme…

its not mikes fault its the system that sucks , sometimes it just seems like we get the short straw here in europe which can be frustrating because it seems we are allways last to get what other region allready have.
Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:59 pm by Mike Kebby
I fully agree with your frustrations – if I could release all the content before the other regions I certainly would
150
Posted on 22 October, 2009 at 1:59 pm by seany1
mike . anything happening with store or e.u home next week or are we gna get left out again as if all of europe dont celebrate halloween lol . p.s resident evil would sell like hotcakes around halloween
