PlayStation Store (via PS3, PSP and Media Go)
Hello everybody, me again! It’s Wednesday so that means new content for you to download and enjoy! So what have we got coming to the store for you today?
Well first off there is Okabu, I saw this game a couple of months back and this is a game that anyone can have fun with. Take to the skies and guide cloud-whale brothers Kumulo and Nimbe on their epic adventure. Save the once-peaceful lands of Okabu from the diabolical Doza and their army of industrial contraptions.
We also have Worms Crazy Golf available from today with a hilarious mixture of the explosive action of Worms and the puzzle based challenges of crazy golf! All of the trademark Worms humour, comic violence, and cartoon visuals are present, combined with addictive yet accessible golf gameplay. Who ever though golf could be so much fun?
Don’t miss out on Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken also available from the store today. Play as Hardboiled Chicken and use a slew of weapons and explosives to destroy the evil penguin regime. Step into this stunning cinematic platform adventure game offering full solo and co-op campaigns with stereoscopic 3D support.
And finally I wanted to mention that Need for Speed: The Run demo is available from today. I am sure I don’t need to tell you all about it but if you do not know about this game yet I would recommend you download and check this.
*UPDATE*
It has come to my attention that there have been some issues with customers who bought the Borderlands Game Of The Year edition. I just wanted to let you know that we are aware of this problem and our technicians are working to get this corrected for you by providing a new Borderland full game file to at the to top of your download list. This should be done hopefully within a week.
Well that’s it for another ‘Heads Up’, see you in the comments section!

Posted on 19 October, 2011 at 1:35 pm by jiggles
So, I bought the GT5 DLC last night and it cost me full price, despite me having a PS+ subscription. When will I get the difference refunded to my account for the discount I was entitled to? Also, I think I’m still owed a PSOne game this month.
P.S. Can we please go one week without messing something up? Just so I know it’s *possible*.
Posted on 19 October, 2011 at 5:22 pm by Andy Stewart
GT5 DLC Update!
I am happy to inform all the plus members who bought the new GT5 DLC before the plus discount had taken effect that you will be creditied the difference between the standard pricing and plus dicsount pricing to your wallets. However this process will take some time so we do ask for your patience in this matter.
Sorry for the delay with this information but I have been waiting for confirmation.

disappointed about payday but rocketbirds is worth a look, i got a review copy just over a week ago and its well worth the price and its got a platinum, the music is brilliant. graphics are gameplay are lush. co-op is fun but only offline
15
Posted on 19 October, 2011 at 1:39 pm by Uterr

hi andy i thought the batman arkham city catwomen bundle pack was free to users who purchase new copy? im confused can you help me out?
Posted on 19 October, 2011 at 2:27 pm by Andy Stewart
It is free if you bought the disc copy, this DLC pack is for customers who by a preowned copy and want want the extra DLC which for preowned customers is more likely to have been used already.
However if you bought the disc copy and its not preowned, then you should not need this DLC pack.

@7 I agree, a refund for Payday The Heist please. Then I can go and download it from the American store.
Can you guys ever do an update that doesn’t wind everyone up? I used to try and give you guys the benefit of the doubt, but week after week this year there has been mistake after mistake. The GT5 issue for those with Plus who purchased yesterday is really shocking.
Oh and my free PSOne game for this month would be nice.

Thankfully nothing for me this, need to save the money for Batman this Friday!!
I saw that the US got new Sam & Max episodes, any idea when we’ll get them?
Are you doing a new sale each week now? Do you take suggestions?
Posted on 19 October, 2011 at 2:30 pm by Andy Stewart
Not a new sale every week but they will be more frequent. As for suggestions, I am always interested in suggestions.

quick Andy, retroactively phone in sick today… claim any sitings of you around the office are visual reverberations based on the resonance frequency of your soul… hide, do something, just get the hell out of there before the comments start piling in!
Glad to see a bikini girl theme by the way. I won’t be buying it, but I’m gonna take it’s mere existence as my mid month treat.
28
Posted on 19 October, 2011 at 1:41 pm by Blastiel
Another “SCEE” update.
So “The Heist” was delayed but we still can’t get it the same week as the US?
Poor show.

Great Update! Thanks for the Heads up!
Question(s)
I was wondering if you guys could release “Syphon Filter 2″ at your store, I mean you already have 1 and 3 nad not to mention US PSN store has it. Why is SF2 left out?
Plus I would love to request releasing “ShaoLin (aka Lord of Fist (Jap))” http://image.com.com/gamespot/images/bigboxshots/2/575772_92547_front.jpg. I really miss playing that game, would mean alot if it was released.
Thanks again!

Posted on 19 October, 2011 at 1:44 pm by Huono_peleis
THAT’S IT FOR PLUS?!?
US Plus had Dead Nation, Burn Zombie Burn, Alien Zombie Death, Age of Zombies and Dungeon Defenders DLC for midmonth treats and we get NOTHING!
We didn’t even get a PS1 game this month! We haven’t had any Full game trials for ages!
Plus is a scam!
