The Official PSN Store Update Thread

[Havok83]

That´s one of the things i can´t really understand about the PSN, why doesn ´t all games get released to all markets at the same time?
Just like XBLA.
There are games and demos for the US PSN, Japanese PSN and Pal PSN, it doesn´t make any kind of sense.

Bc its not XBLA. I you are going to enoy your PS3, the first thing you need to realize is that its not a 360. Don't come at it with the same expectations. To my knowledge the different stores act independently of each other and liscenses may keep some content from being on store over another. Regional factors also come into play. But there are also cases where it seems as if it doesnt make much sense.

BTW, let me ask, can you buy games from diferent markets?
Example, to buy a game off the US PSN store and play it on a PAL PS3?
You can´t on the 360, all you can is download demos, the good part is that, 95% of the games and demos are released everywhere.

Im not sure but considering you can make up a foreign account, I think you'd might be able to purchase games if you had a foreign bank account which most users do not.

Also
If you download a PSP game, let´s say, Patatpon 2, can you play it on the PS3 or have to transfer it to the PSP?
Because i´ve read that to have downloadable PSP games on the PS3 will be a common practice.

In the beginning the ONLY way to play download PSP games was through the PS3. Sony eventually made it possible for users to access the store via their PC and then through the PSP itself. So to answer your question, yes you would be able to transfer Patapon 2 to the PSP

 

[Isildur´s Heir]

But that´s a not a very bright move, because there is no point in being hyped for the PSN game, for it might never see the light of day in a certain market.

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil PSone Classics Incoming

Looks like Sony is serious about adding new "PSone Classics" to the PlayStation Store, as a few original PlayStation heavy hitters appear to be en route. The ESRB has rated five new PSone Classics candidates.

That includes PlayStation system sellers Metal Gear Solid and Resident Evil: Director's Cut, both newly rated for release on the PSP and PlayStation 3. Those two blockbusters look to be joined by Spec Ops: Covert Assault, Spec Ops: Ranger Elite and Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six, all seemingly destined for PSone Classics status.

Sony has promised that more titles would be added to the library of downloadable PlayStation games "shortly." The company was recently rumored to be planning an onslaught of downloadable classic software titles in tandem with the release of a new PSP model, allegedly dubbed the PSP Go!

[Tron Bonne]

Bought time, RE and MGS have been on the JPN Store for quite some time. I'll probably end up picking MGS, woo!

 

[Electro UK]

Oh man, Metal Gear? I'll pay for that even though I've got it on disc! Resident Evil too. Playing those on PSP is too good to be true!

That is if they come to the EU Store...

 

[Tron Bonne]

I have the disc, too, but the first disc doesn't work. So, I definitely will probably pick it up

 

[Havok83]

I bought MGS last year with the MGS collection which has all 3 of the first games

 

[Tron Bonne]

Since I already had the full versions of MGS2:S and MGS3:S I couldn't find justification for buying that for just a working version of the first game.

 

[Electro UK]

I have the disc, too, but the first disc doesn't work. So, I definitely will probably pick it up

 

[Tron Bonne]

I know, time paradox

 

[Electro UK]

You can't go changing the future like that!

 

[kingman]

Hoping for a good update today but most likely that'll never happen

 

[Electro UK]

Yeah, the UK store has been a friggin' letdown at the moment. I know I go on about Zuma a lot, but they've downright insulted me with that now. If MGS and RE come on the store, I'll call it a good update, but we all know it'll only happen in America.

 

[Tron Bonne]

Is MGS & RE suppose to come out today in the States? The InFamous demo is suppose to be coming out over there as well, right? That's something at least

No Zuma. Sorry Electro.

 

[Electro UK]

I will bring down SCEE through years of under cover work that leads me all the way to the top. You'll see!

Other than, no MGS or RE either. But its not actually too bad an update, only I don't want to DL the inFamous demo as its only a week to experience the whole thing in 1 go.

 

[KALEL114]

You know what? I'll join you in that crusade. They will never suspect an American would help take down SCEE. Or would they? This needs more planning.

 

[Electro UK]

With time my friend, with time...

Ohh..Rainbow Six. Finally we're getting some good PS1 games.

 

[Anubis]

I just bought a bunch of Guitar hero World Tour songs. Gotta have my Queen.

 

[Superhero 101]

WHAT THE HELL IS A DNS Error i was trying to download the Infamous Demo but i couldn't log in for like a hour!! it was really frustrating. I kept getting this DNS mumbo jumbo and i was this close from breaking the PS3! Anyone else have this problem what should i do to fix it?

 

[Sam Fisher]

Perhaps the PSN servers are overloaded at the moment?
