‘Heads-Up’ Store update 9th January 2013

@ Carnivius_Prime

Nice Singstar Video by the way

Please can I request the following games to be launched as classics at some stage:

- LMA Manager 2007 (PS2)
- Sky Odyssey (PS2)

Thank you.

Where Mortal Kombat for PS3 ?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh wow, Auditorium HD is finally being released? It only took over 2 years to bring it across the pond.
Hopefully we aren’t waiting so long for Dokuro and Ragnarok, looking forward to those and P4G on my Vita.

I got some questions.

1.When are we going to hear news about the Sly Cooper Thieves in Time demo?
2.When are we getting the PS All-Stars pre-order costumes in the PS Store since US got them yesterday!!!

Imaginstruments not available to get to UK users wont download on vita or not able to purchare from sony enterainment online even tho its says i’ve purchashed this on my vita thanks sony for another usual weekly mess up on store and again nothing of any good for European Plus users, again SCEE sat around with unlike SCEA who actually seem to look after the PS3/Vita community, but as usual sony’s biggest market get screwed again and again, maybe its time you listen to us before you dont have any customers left as everybody moves to the competition where you dont have to wait months after things get released across the pond and we are still asking the same bloody question when where and why are we still waiting maybe you shoulds all think about getting another job as you all seem (CENSORED) at this one.Time to go spend my money on a decent digital games source STEAM btw sony is (CENSORED) once steam box is released.

Are we back on the ‘Vita has no games’ trip? Brilliant.

Auditorium HD was only $1.99 on the US PSN Store on December 20.

Here you are selling it to us for £6.49/$12.95 here in Australia (shame on you).

Way to go SCEE. Low and slow on content, high on prices!

This week, the US Store has some great games going for just 99 cents (some were $4.99/$9.99). Whereas, your idea of a January sale isn’t really much of a sale at all.

Also I know it’s a long shot but any chance of a localisation for Senran Kagura: Shinovi Versus on Vita?

Is there any news on when Dyad will be made available on Australian Playstation store? It’s been quite a while since that game’s been released and there doesn’t seem to be any information on when it’ll be out here.

@Jawad Ashraf

Any chance you can make Syphon Filter Logans Shadow Compatible with the PS Vita?

& will the PS Vita Need for Speed have the PS3 add on pack anytime soon?

Thanks!

Still no PS Mobile. I took a look at the calendar and checked if it’s no longer 20th century by accident. Nope, 2013. I. Don’t. Even.

@ Fred.
Have just read your reply to post 41, regarding your supposed broken promise about ‘possible’ vita titles in the upcoming sale. from a few days ago. Really, i think your being a bit funny saying, ‘i don’t see no promise mentioned’, Yes, your right, it wasn’t worded as a promise of vita titles being included. Just merely hinted it could be possible. i guess it’s also possible that the mayans were only 3 weeks out with their prediction, IF you like.. i see it as you Did give a glimmer of hope in your stating ‘its possible’, So No, you didn’t break a promise, just led some to (Yet) Another letdown..iS That more acceptable to you, in fact will you admit it, or write another i didn’t/don’t reply. Nice start i must say.

Hey guys,

I know I’m like a broken record about this, but is there anything you can say conclusively as to wether Syphon Filter 2 and indeed Legend of Dragoon will be released on the EU PSN store?

The US market has had LOD for close to nine months now, and that is a game that is dang near impossible to track down for a reasonable price in the secondary market. I see plenty of obscure Japanese PSOne games like Cho Aniki (Hilarious game BTW.) so to me, it’s slightly baffling to see two of Sony’s best ever games being left out in the cold. Thanks either way.

@Frodo

lol, looks that way doesn’t it.

I bought Rayman from the PS Store for £12 and Virtua Tennis for £7 (VT was from GAME)over the Xmas period so I myself am more than happy

Seems some people will NEVER be happy by the looks of things even if you gave them an entire back catalogue for free

I’ll throw a curveball here.

I know at the moment that Pentavision isn’t able to support a physical release of DJ Max Technika Tune but is there any way to get them to release a PSN version for us? Importing is a bit tricky because of the possibility of DLC being released.

Oh, and please ask Atlus (or Index) if it’s possible to get a PSN EU release of Yggdra Union and other PSP games we’re yet to get. I know it’s unlikely but at least I tried

@ AZAG-THOTH (49)
Zombie Driver is pretty poor actually. I bought it on the 360 a couple of months back, and after playing it for an hour I’ve never touched it since. I usually like mindless games like ZD, but in this instance I wish I hadn’t bothered.

Save your money.

@Jawad

Welcome Back!

My Q:

Is Aliens: Colonial Marines also getting digital release on PSN?

Thanks

Any chance we’ll be seeing Corpse Party book of shadows as well next week?

@AlucardDHK:
It should and I’m being told RCR is coming week, even Jawad told me about it. Hope to see some sales on Vita games next week, I mean nothing for Vita is week is just awful.

Any news on CounterStrike? Is SCEE not worried about missing out on a game that would earn lots of money? Or even letting their EU customers down when SCEJ and SCEA both have the game?

The download list is also still broken, as it has been the past 8 months. Getting tired of this now, really tired.

Come on guys lets have some vita deals.

When there are good priced downloadable deals then I will buy a bigger memory card and the games.

I agree with #113.

@121:
I mean’t RCR and EDF should come next week, sorry for the spelling mistake.

Hello Jawad,

any updates regarding Uncharted 2 (digital) DLC map packs incompatibility ? we have waited too long to hear back on this.

Thank you

At 114 the truth is they just dont care about us european’s any more just trying to make it big in the USA so yeah they lie alot to us and make lots of Broken Promises and then just give very poor excuese when stuff doesn’t turn up on store or is delayed for months at a go, if you look at posts over christmas time there was one saying big new update to store today for plus users but where is it now its next week maybe we will see but probably not haha they take us for fools and idiots but they are time to get real answers to what people ask here not just BLAH BLAH BLAH poor answers and excuses.

Hi Jawad,

In the post, there’s a “Mass Effect 3: Earth Pack DLC (£2.39/€2.99)”. Was that a mistake? Is something different from the free multiplayer DLC Mass Effect 3: Earth launched in July?

Thanks

@superpatchy66

Like I said on the other thread (Jan Sale thread).

Wait till February as it is the Vita’s 1st Birthday!!

I bet you we will see Vita/PSP stuff on sale over that period

Jawad Ashraf i just read on twitter that RETRO CITY RAMPAGE and the official website it will be out in the eu January 16th, 2013 and if you buy either ps3 version you get vita vesion free or other way round

this is for all who keeps asking when its out

ITS OUT NEXT WEEK finally.

(GTA5 march 2013) <<< official news 90% sure

Will repeat the question again once and once only.

To Fred or Jawad or even Chris:
Is Imaginsturments supposed to be out today or not? It is on the PSN Store and I cannot download it what so ever. Please look into it. Thank you.

(PS: News on white Vita yet since the US has it last year?)

@Jawad
You should really consider removing the link to the US PSN at the top of the page.

When I see January Contenet:
Retro City Rampage free for PSN+ (not available in Europe)
SSFIV AE free for PSN+
NBA Jame FE free for PSN+ (not available in all EU PSN)

I am really wondering if the people in Sony Europe really like videogames, and how they are not able to strike the same deals as in US.
Because it s one thing not being able of arguing with Capcom or EA for the “small” Sony Europe to get sales from them, but come one man, Brian Provinciano he is a one guy company….

Would it be possible to get the classic Mega man games in PS EU (and I’m not talking about Megaman 9, 10 nor Maveric Hunter X for Vita)? Even some import version with Japanese language would do just fine. Thanks for good blog!

someone obviously completely forgot about Vita… and then they wonder why it doesn’t sell well…

well – I’ll go back and play some more Lumines then…

wish there were ports of some of the PS2 games for Vita, especially Amplitude and Frequency… ehhh… I can dream on

hi guys can any tell me about anarchy reigns is it gonna be psn 2 download plz can anyone reply

Hi Jawad happy new year to all at SCee hope this year is going to be better as to prices of retail digital releases.

Also could you answer if ps3 is going to be getting Minecraft its a game thousands of ps3 owners are missing out on, i have it on xbox and pc but i dont use those often, im always on ps3, i would sell my xbox 360 if minecraft came on psn, so please say yes see ya deano…………………………………..

PS+ in the EU is SOOOO much better than the US content IMHO!!

I also have many US PSN friends and they are always moaning at me and saying our PS+ service (in the EU) is loads better than the US’s offerings

Will ps vita ever get ps2 classics?

anarchy reigns anarchy reigns is it gonna be available 4 downloading anarchy reigns !!!!!!! cant wait

CS GO out next week and about time as well

Sooo…. where’s the Mass Effect 3 DLC I see nothing or are you folks just enjoy pulling my leg?

@29 I play the beta from December, Santa Monica send me the code i register from ps blog and they announced the beta wll be available today for plus! That not mean plus is ruubbish ! They need early players so when beta is available for everyone to run smooth witnout problems! They already make alot updates this one month. In every beta happen this and you know something not everyone visit the IGN lol. One more tning only people never play GOW they call GOW beta terrible! is hard when first start to play but when level goes up unlock armour, magic, wepons and only if know how use this you became really good!

Hello I wanted to know If you have any information about the new Digimon Adventure game for PSP that will be released in 17th January.

Will be released on PS3?
Will it be for free by PS Plus for PSP?

Please answer it.

Can we get Pinball Arcade DLC put on sale in time for it coming to plus?

No Ratchet & Clank: Q-Force for PS Vita?
I know it’s the first update of the month (although the second Wednesday).
But, is this going to be a case of it being released the 30th?
Previous statements regarding titles being released in certain months are always on the last possible day to fulfil the statement of it being released in that month.

I like ‘Q-Force’, it’s far better than ‘All 4 One’.
But I’d like the opportunity to play it on my PS Vita.

On a related note, absolutely no where on the PS3 versions packaging, or on the “how to…” slip inside does it state that the PS Vita version isn’t available until Jan 2013.
It’s not until you activate it and the PS3 Store page tells you.

Not a good start to ’13. Not that I expected any different.
The EU userbase haven’t had a good time with digital content for a few years now.
But with the lacklustre December offerings, and the plethora of complaints and moaning here today, it looks like business as usual for the EU Store.

Nice dodge of my dawnguard question Fred well done

I’m not seeing the ME 3 DLC?

@ Fred : If that’s the case then why don’t both the US and EU regions work together to ensure they are able to secure the same content offerings. Surely having EU Plus owners questioning their content and US Plus owners questioning their content. The is a no win situation is really a solution for anyone be it yourselfs or the regions owners of plus. I’d like to see a more constructive approach like working with neighbours to ensure the offering are the same regardless of region.

Are these any plans on releasing NAX Music Player in the west? And what about CS:GO?

SONY any chance of giving me everything for free? & pay for my bills to? Thanks…
Anyway, any new ‘PlayStation All-Stars’ stuff coming soon on PSN? Love that game(even tho someone called me a ‘big n00b’ online for no reason today(unless he has seen me naked…) GOD i do despise online people(well some of them) i really do & only bother playing online to get Trophies anyway) Oh well:)
