I’m hoping the Liars and Cheats Pack for Red Dead Redemption will be available on the store well before the downtime to give people the chance to download it and then sign in to play before PSN goes offline.

You’ll be pleased to know we’re going to publish the Liars and Cheats pack tomorrow morning between 9 and 10 am (BST).

Hey James!
Great week was it!!!
I have 2 questions and i hope you can answer them! (the first is really important!)
1* I already had the Pseye but in the xmb-menu i can’t set the volume higher then 3! My neighbour bought a new one and his volume is set on 5 or higher! Now i can’t use it for chat because the volume is to low! Can this please be fixed?
2* Is it possible to put a demo on the store from Eyepet? On the disc it is already but because i had the camera already i bought seperate Move supplies. I maybe wanne buy Eyepet Move,but first i wanne try it.
Really hope you answer…..especially because of the first question!
Greetings and have a nice day!

Isn’t the firmware due on tuesday aswell?

@ShadowhunterrX: I think the timing is better this time than last. Rather the day before the store updates than the day after.
Hopefully this is a prelude to an update as @somethingatt suggested. Installing some VoIP servers perchance?

@Outofathens
When you download the Eyepet Move Edition’s patch that was released on PSN last week and start it without inserting the Eyepet disc it enters demo mode with limited time. Try it

Will the store update before or will it be wednesday at 3pm. Hope it is before coz will getting DeathSpank TOV and the new Read Dead DLC.
Posted on 20 September, 2010 at 3:51 pm by Mike Kebby
The store will publish on Wednesday as usual, it’s only the RDR DLC that will publish on the Tuesday.

Man, I hope my credit card will start working after this update. It’s freaking annoying not to be able to buy stuff from the Store. I mean the credit card work everywhere else. And I tried adding money through PS3, MEdiaGo and a browser. It always says that the credit card info is incorrect. Well, its not, at least it cant 20-30 times in a row. And I also tried different address combinations. I dont know what else to do.

pretty bad timing for an EU only downtime … Should’ve started at 2AM in stead of finish.
Pretty crucial day tomorrow with RDR DLC … Everyone will be checking it out, online!
22
Posted on 20 September, 2010 at 4:16 pm by killzonexx
it dont care what time they do maintainance there is always someone who complains if you want to keep play online make sure you sign in before 16:00 is that so hard??
its good they do maintainance that means they are doing things for us!
and if you cant play online go do something else with your spare time! i bet you have enough other things to do to kill time !
23
Posted on 20 September, 2010 at 4:16 pm by crusher915
@OpTiC_KiNGPiNG lol simple if it´s not out this week then it will be out in the next week
24
Posted on 20 September, 2010 at 4:24 pm by Enzuigiri
Err yes signing on before 1600 is extremely tough if you work for a living. A 1800 start would allow a lot more people to sign on before the maintenance without making any serious impact to the finish time as it is in the early hours of the morning.

This update better be worth while this time
26
Posted on 20 September, 2010 at 4:27 pm by Enzuigiri

Wann bekommt ihr euch US Update in Store ???

“……before 16:00 is that so hard??”
Yes, not every PS3 owner is a student or jobless layabout!
Kindly tell me how I start my PS3 and sign-in using my PC at work.
All of this disruption because of maintenance to prepare for the FW release which 90% of the PS3 community won’t use yet.
I dare Sony to try this during US peak gaming hours.
31
Posted on 20 September, 2010 at 4:44 pm by sensiblade
Do we get ITV Player aspart of the FW update this week?

good job guys
36
Posted on 20 September, 2010 at 5:09 pm by sensiblade
We’ve had the videostore for ages in uk
I don’t see the problem with not signing in for one night.
I’ll just play some 1 player games.

Another fail by Sony on putting it at peak UK times…
43
Posted on 20 September, 2010 at 6:48 pm by jw7103
the us are also having the maintenance done tomorrow but it will be from 8am to 5pm pacific time.So it is not just affecting us, just that it is being done when they are at work and we are coming home
44
Posted on 20 September, 2010 at 6:54 pm by sensiblade
The times the downtime is is designed to suit Sony’s home market, so Japan.
It sucks that it has to be at the same time for us as them but thats the way it is.

No wait, RDR DLC will go online tomorrow!
Phew i was seriously afraid i wouldn’t have something to do hehehe!
Hope, PSN won’t F up this time (not like last Plus’ content Fook up).
47
Posted on 20 September, 2010 at 7:15 pm by skidpro
I Want the Red Dead DLC…it has no multiplayer in it then, phew….! Otherwise its pointless putting it up in morning and people can play it in evening:)

Man I really, REALLY hate these downtimes, especially when they don’t tell us exactly what they’re doing.

I always wondered why it never happens at night there are less players online SCEE is a huge company so I think are people that do night shifts right?
