‘Heads-Up’ Game Store Update 2nd February 2011

rubbish update nothing new though in this new store era

So Ross, if you can’t tell us the remaining five psone classics but you can tell us which ones are not on the list- can you give us all the ones that are ‘not’ on the list?!

Worth a try !

killzone 3 beta for me this week

Nice update Ross

why are this ps1 classics missing from the portuguese store?

command & conquer
command & conquer red allert
theme hospital

thanks

Any update on the MLB 11 The Show import idea?

Cheers.

Pretty nice update today. Definitely Crash Bandicoot 2 for me <3

Cheers Ross

Oh, I'll ask. PJ Shooter 2?

“Also with regard to The Undergarden,…, rest assured it won’t be a long wait and you’re not going to be short of things to do in the meantime.”
Who are you to say wether we are short of things to do in the meantime? If you are inferring that we should just buy something else this week, then you can go and whistle. I have no interest in ANYTHING else this week, no not even the KZ3 beta.

And finally, the Crash Bandicoot collection is complete. The good games anyway.

with the KZ3 beta will that have 3D and move support?
I know the SP demo will, but cant find any info if the beta will or not.
Also, the beta announcement only had one map listed, please tell me thats wrong.
Kinda pointless running a beta on one map, no?
Also, whats happening with us who still have the beta from PSN + closed beta?
I still got it on my HDD, so can i access the open beta from this or do i need a whole separate download?
I read in a post a while ago one of the GG devs said you will need to download the new beta, but than others are saying you wont.
Oh well, ill sign in tomorrow and see if it works if not ill re download it.
I hope its not too big, only got 10GBs of my download usage for the month left and i still need to download the SP demo, and apparently DNF demo releases late this month along with the crysis 2 MP PC demo.
hope crytek release a SP demo though, really looking forward to it dying to get a taste of the SP!

Ross isn’t in charge of answering questions about importing. He only answers questions about the playstation store.
You should try someone else.

Just a friendly reminder for you to keep reaming Q Game’s Head for a possible Pixeljunk Shooter 1 Soundtrack release date as you told me to keep…Wait that came out wrong…ahem.
Just another friendly reminder, as you did ask me to remind you now & then, in order to glean a possible release date off Q Game’s Head Boss(the one whom writes in the PS Blog about PJS2 sometimes)for the Pixeljunk Shooter 1 Soundtrack(I’m a huge fan of The Orb). It would be really nice to see it instore before it’s retarded sibeling arrives. Tho I am envisioning a nicely presented digipack with clear see thru cd holders with a 2 cd release of 1 & 2 with complementary PJ 1 & 2 artwork on inside covers and outside covers. mmmmmm dvd size digipacks of course. Yes yes please Sméagol says forget the precious. We want self-marketed PJ 1&2 Soundtrack cds in clear plastic holders, dvd size with Sméagol sating artwork from the games, yess yesss….AND a trip to the shiny face moon too.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news in my first comment here, but those mysterious missing Rock Band tracks that were said to be returning a few weeks ago never appeared. I’m one of those many guys who picked up Unplugged, played the Freezepop track, and have been dying to play it on my proper game ever since! Any chance of an update on this one?

And to quickly change the topic to Parasite Eve, since the 3rd Birthday is coming out over here (well, according to retailers anyway, don’t know if its official) it’d be great to see the series on PSN. I say that having no idea what its about, but it looks interesting enough to throw money at!

But apart from that, I’ll just say I really appreciate what you guys do here. It’s great to see that a major company like Sony keeps the consumer relations open with a blog like this, unlike some other businesses in this industry. Heck, for all I know Nintendo is run entirely by robots with the secrecy they keep. It’s just nice to see there’s a human face behind all the corporate stuff, actually taking requests and trying to provide a better experience for us all!

hey ross any word on the spyro games??
and will tombi 2 be released as well after tombi 1??
thanks….

Everyone reading this, be aware that Bionic Commando requires you to be logged in to PSN to play the game, even though it is an offline game

If you don’t want to support Capcom’s stupid DRM, don’t buy it.

Ross, is there any possibility to see a LittleBigPlanet themed set of deals soon? Costumes, level packs, anything.. it would be great to celebrate the LBP2 release

Also, thanks for the update Rossyboy

Sorry to disturb again but I have surfed the danish playstation site and can’t find any information about how to contact customer service. Please help.

Hi Ross
Any words on the Spyro ps1 games?
And do you know if Final Fantasy Crisis Core will be avaible on the PSN store som time in the future?
And Bith by sleep?

Great update. Nice to see a true PSone Classic!

Ross is the open beta…move compatible?

Have I missed something? Has Tombi been confirmed as definite? I thought it was just part of the list?

Hey Ross Could you have a talk with SOE and bring over some dc universe online avatars like Superman and Batman ( etc.) they will sell mad crazy and i will you love even more than i do already

what crap! iv been with PSN+ for months and hadnt had option of KZ3 beta!!!!!!

also any other ps1 games due? the BS blog on monday revealed no 6 games u kept hinting at over last few weeks. would it be SO HARD mayb make a “comming soon” blog evry couple of months. no need to reveal release dates tho just so we know wot to expect

iv LOVED the ps store since it launched but since this new year started its been worst its ever been

Back to Wild Arms watch I guess.

Killzone 3 beta and Fight Night Champion demo for me!

Any chance us in the EU territory will have a chance to win the Helghast LE by playing the beta? Or US only?

Hi Ross,

Coolies, a week where I don’t have to ask about why X isn’t available in Australia / New Zealand.

Now to wait for the avatars that are in process.

Capcoms out of there mind charging 15 euros for Bionic Commando. The first game was 5 euros I think(maybe 8 euros,can’t remember) and reviewers are saying the second game is only half as good as the first game.

I think I’ll wait until the game gets a price drop. Doesn’t Capcom know that PS3 owners are fighting for free time to play all these great games thats coming out. A game selling for that price could easily be forgotten.

It seems like the Grand Theft Auto: The Ballad of Gay Tony & Grand Theft Auto: The Lost and Damned Bundle is currently not available in Germany. It was supposed to be up with last week’s update. Any news about when it will become available? Thanks in advance!

Can you kindly ask Bandai Namco for various Dragonball/Gundam avatars? like wouldn’t be cool to have a avatar of a Gundam?

With so many things missing every month of what they originally promised, and with all these problems that occasionally appear, I think they have to rename the service from Plus to Minus…

Definitely a shot in the dark, and I know the store update has nothing to do with it, but any news on a patch for Mass Effect 2? I’m dying to play it again!

hi,
any news if magic: the gathering is coming to portuguese store?

thanks.

Crash Bandicoot 2!! YES!!! Finally, thank you. It was the first game I played with my playstation! So many hours…

My Eye dropped directly on the fight night demo yeah..!! happy already and did not even take time to look @ the rest of the list will do that now

@ Ross:

Hi there! Back from my volounteering early today, but Futurama has kept me busy for a while before I could turn on my notebook.

Quick questions:
1) when is “Dissidia Duodecim [012] Final Fantasy Prologus” (the paid demo) going to be released in the European store? (just a vague “soon” is enough.
2) about Square-Enix, we all know about their japan-only “international versions” (the sheer irony of the definition still keeps me bashing my forehead on the wall even today): a specific DLC for the new Dissidia is tied to the “international version” of Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep and only limited to it. Do you know if it will be available in other regions? (the DLC, not the Kingdom Hearts game)

Nice update Fight Night Champion & Killzone 3 for me.
Got in the Top 10 of the Fight Night 4 Welterweight Leaderboards so hoping to reach the top this time!

Does the Killzone 3 Beta have Move support?

Can u say to all Games Developers to reset or open Leaderboards once the particular game is released in all territories because Americans are always going to be top in most cases.

Cheers

Hey there Ross!
Sweet update. Care to comment on recent rumours regarding Cloud Saving for PS+?!

Is the update coming at a certain time of day every week or does it vary? it seems that the new stuff never is available until after 1630 CET, in Norway at least.

I’ve noticed that the previous blog post about ‘undergarden’ has been sneakily edited by James to reflect that it’s not actually due to be released until February 23rd.
Any reason why we have to wait another 3 weeks? I assume the usual ‘localisation’.
Stuff like this really needs to stop happening (not the delay between releasing in different regions … although something needs to be done there, but the releasing of incorrect information (which is then hastily edited once you realise you’ve made yet another mistake), not only does it make SCEE look bad, it makes the developer look bad too.

Will buy Crash Bandicoot 2 as soon as it hits. Not sure it was published by SCEE, but any chance on us also getting Crash Bash too?

Well,

I must admit I kinda hoped you had a cheeky comment for me, but I see there are more problems to attend to.

If I can, I surely will hit the PS Blog with my ramblings within the next 4 months…!

Also I think the content coming for PSN Store is getting better, even if by now nothing of this update is for me, I am looking forward to TALES FROM SPACE. About a Blob and EXPLODEMON (which is due next week )

Without further ado, just remember: http://ow.ly/3OP4O

Besides as I said in the PsOne article before… it was a good read and I appreciated the intel … I hope the positive responses and the media buzz it generated will green light more articles like this one!

when will be that update available ?

Also cant believe Fate/Unlimited Codes still hasn’t had a price drop here yet, North America got a perma price drop in September. I really want it too. Capcom = fail.

Ross my man <.<

only the + content for me today it seems altho i am tempted by bionic commando but i think i'm like 40p away xD (curse you avatars)

oh and Ross you got any jurbs going *shifty*

i can make a hell of a good cupa tea and toast *

*may or may not be true

when u finally release avatars, please make them avalible for sale seperatly from day 1.

X-Men arcade is mine.

I said to a friend on twitter last night.. “I hope X-Men arcade turns up” and BAM there it is.

JAP IMPORTS/SCEA IMPORTS coming 2nd classed snail-mail post from the moon (sarcasm)

to the 1 who said why a cloud theme is a cyptic clue & flower theme does‘t make a garden.

We know sony is Full off cyptic words, Eric lampell was cyptic about cross game chat saying it possible in a interview

SCEE andy house was cyptic saying about cross game chat in a EG interview.

but sony is struggling to cope when to announce it like cloud saves.

KZ3 beta! ! ! Can’t wait;)

also, im happy to see kz3 beta. and the minis sale. will probably pick up at least one of them.
