Again, we’ll update you here as soon as the Store goes live.
Ok I might be off topic but why is Sony lagging, they canceled the Getaway game and Red Alert 3. I want a 360 :) I am honestly fed up with Sony for the past year. They keep mentioning all these titles including home and seriously I don’t care anymore, My friends don’t care either. Sony up for another delayaholic? Oh well I have been playing my brother’s 360 and is all good and at least has decent titles. It seems that Sony doesn’t take games in consideration for playstation rather they promote blu-ray. Where is the In-Game XMB? Where are the reasonable and exclusive games? (duh isn’t the PS3 mainly for that?), Playstation store images load slow, I cant see what time it is on the menu (haha one of the obvious features that is a must). Ok I might have said too much but that is the only start. I have honestly lost faith and loyalty from Sony and plan to sell my PS3. Thanks for reading my post and I hope this also gives you some idea too if thinking of purchasing a console. You as a consumer have the power to choose. But overall the 360 is a solid and reliable system with sturdy online capabilities.
game over dudes the store is online
So I have been here since the first post went up and have been back since every few hours. At this time I may be a bit out of it, so please ignore type-os. Anyway wanted to state this before I forget. I have felt that the initial apology SCEA had at the beginning was rather weak and stated nothing really. So I wrote them a better one. So here it is:
We at SCEA do truly apologize, however due to circumstances beyond our control the update will be delayed for the time being. Unfortunately we are unable to say when exactly this update will be available, we believe it may be at least until Friday, however please rest assured that we are doing everything in our power to solve this situation. We, at SCEA, also understand that because of the unusually light updates of the previous weeks, that this update has been slightly more anticipated than usual, and we are trying to find the best possible solution for all those concerned. Please rest assured that we will be passing on any information we can, when it is available to us. We will be updating this post periodically, with whatever information we can share.
Thank you for your continued patience
~SCEA Team
Something like this would make me feel a bit better. And if you notice it doesn’t say damn near anything, and the only promise is to keep people updated… at some time… I like mine better. Come on sony. Work with me here. You have to give something. Anything to keep peoples hopes up! How about hinting at the upcoming firmware update. Don’t need the date of when it comes, just hint at one feature. That would send people off into the discussion of the new information, and would help people forget about the update. Anyway, that’s just my 2 cents on this matter. Off I go, to save yet another business snafoe that is on the horizon.
~Frogpills
BTW I recognize some of the names on this board. Pretty sure I killed a lot of yall on AO2 (snicker) Need a retry? Will be online later Fri. Nyte Yall
Only wish New Firmware was released also!
It’s up you entitled crybabies ;)
yea the firmware is totally not there
just a few more percents then bad company baby
so I still don’t get quore its a mag but why all the hype
How is QORE?
bit peeved at the delay, but its to be expected. Im only after the socom beta so, you got another $3 out of me. plus an extra $6 because lemmings was never brought down in price . shame there was never a gta theme. themes definitely need to be added more. and of better quality, too.
uhg i want the new firmware to be released

Don’t get me wrong there are a few exceptions….
Anyone know Wrench_Monkey? Damn that guy is a pimp… beats my ass everytime at AO2….

This update was pretty damn good, even if it was late. Novastrike and commando 3, along with Civ and Battlefield are all amazing additions to the PSN. I wanna personally thank Sony and all the parties involved in this weeks update cause I’m probably more content with this weeks update than I ever have been.
Qore still won’t win my nod, though. Sorry. Sony ya did good and I’m your toughest, loyal, critic. “ha”
