What’s happening to those people that downloaded the faulty version of Assassin’s Creed Bloodlines last week? we’re still without the game and you still have all our money, sounds a bit like stealing.
We have had no word at all on whats going on.

When are we going to get an official answer to the Assassins Creed Bloodlines mess? No one from Sony has accepted there is an issue with this download on Thursday and myself and many like me are unable to play a game we payed for!! It’s been 4 days now and still no answer on how we can download the working version for free..
Thanks

Hi Jem, i’ve noticed that the videos on the blog no longer work in the ps3 browser. It just says ” This application is not supported”
Can you find out what’s happened, is it the blog or did firmware 3.10 change the browser funcionality?
I use the ps3 browser a lot (using it now) so hopefully this problem with the embedded video is only temporary.

Critter Crunch is awesome. Also, the Underworld videos on VidZone were extremely good too. These were my favourite two updates for the last week.

Please, enable the choice to buy/rent movies in English too!
Otherwise, video store is useless for me except for french movies!

shame FW3.10 didn’t allow us to resize our icons and fonts back to the ‘correct’ size, the least they could have done was to give us a smaller font under the theme settings.
my 1080p display still looks like it’s tweeked for the visually impared, please sort this out Sony. it’s such a simple thing to fix.

I would pay to be able to navigate the XMB with my PS3 Eye. Make it so, Sony!

Why is there a free BF:1943 theme in the premium themes section of the PS-store?

Odd, also I think the MotorStorm Arctic Edge Free Dynamic Theme is Only on UK store. Thus not enabling loyal customers the choice to spice up their PlayStation 3 XMB.
Can you please tell me what time of day Gravity Crash is released. I’m pretty stoked for it, thanks a bunch!

you’ll still be able to get the arctic edge theme as it’s free, just set up a uk account.
i was going to ask about the missing content that scee lost in “the dungeon” again but jem is awol and mike is either unwilling or unable to answer.
and once again.
Jem
“I’ll make sure you see more replies on here from now on. That’s one of the main purposes of the blog, after all.”
and once again i ask, WELL?
what exactly are you doing about it?
we know “we haven’t received the content” was a lie, was this also?
