how much of a god damn genius do you have to be to get a f*****g update ready
almost at 500
458: Great comment, really.
And re: PS1 games… For instance, wasn’t Legend of Dragoon entirely a Sony game or something like that? Then what is the licensing issue?
(I never tried it, and would die to put something on my psp..)
@486
we will try our best but if it gets updated we are all going to leave this site and go download everything!!
It’s also not like grace is carrying a blu-ray disc of the content over to some file server across town on foot. Why the hell hasn’t she responded to one of these 480+ comments by now
500
o where o where has the update gone o where o where could it be
Hey FYI you can atleast get the new rockband songs..Go to the music store in the game.
come on 500!!!
seriosly though where’s our PSone love for NA
I know of someone whom will remain nameless that logs in from a different IP to get around his banishment…lol
wtf? Still no update… Weak… -_-‘ And they’re pretty much ignoring us in saying when it’ll even come out…
dude i wish i was 500! oh man! LUCKY!!
lets get this update lets go, lets go, lets go, lets go. BTW I LVE YOU SONY
Why don’t you guys just chill out and go watch the Lakers/Celtics game
Why isn’t there a blog post above this one making any type of statement about the status?
I’m still hoping the update with happen before i go to bed so i can at least start downloading. I’m gonna be downloading around 4 GB!!
OMFG release the UD already
I wanna play the new GH3 track
10:12, still no update
yeah man come on come on come on
Wow, one more hour of this and, Eastern Standard time, it won’t even be Thursday anymore.
What is so difficult guys?
Maybe they moved the updates to friday.
@458
Couldn’t agree with you more. Good call.
And their Thurs update times are suggestive at best since it’s free, well for now.
is it true that if you buy the qore yearly subscription and want to cancel, Sony can refuse to give you a partial refund??
if you think about it, there are no terms and conditions, so that may be a possibility…you’d probably still be able to download new eps, but if you didn’t like it, it would be money wasted…
maybe they should release a “preview version” or episode synopsis for every show, that way people can decide based on the preview. all it would take is a little digital editing….
Well, it’s 11:11 and no sign of the update. I bet the update will come tomorrow. But SCEA really needs a set time to do their weekly updates so we can actually know when we can get new stuff rather than constantly check and hope it’s there. I mean, Nintendo does them at 12pm PST and MS does the major ones around 2-3am PST, but it’s completely random for PSN updates.
storytime everybody. here goes…
one time i was walking down the street and then i said,
“oh boy i sure do love my playstation!”
and it was true. i do love my playstation.
the end. =]
Unless there’s something preventing ANYTHING from getting added to the Store, there’s no reason why they can’t just upload everything that IS ready and just spend the required extra time with the stuff that ISN’T.
Let’s say (I’m just making a hypothetical here) that Qore isn’t ready to download, so they’re waiting until they fix whatever bug is in Qore so they can release everything together. Well, screw that. Release Qore tomorrow or over the weekend and give us everything else now.
But this waiting game we’re playing here where we’re all yelling about where the update is and they’re all covering their ears and pretending like we don’t exist is just silly.
Give us some sort of status update. Let us in on what’s going on.
This is some serious Bull$&*#
10:14 and still…….no update
Yeah, free… it’s a good thing I don’t pay for this service…. cause i’d stop paying :)
11:13 EST. No update, and I’m not surprised.
From PS3Fanboy and not being told in this blog.
PS3Fanboy Update: We’ve contacted SCEA about today’s update. Looks like a potential technical glitch is delaying this update. Stay tuned, as we’ll update when the content goes live.
jeff what is going on today we have never gotten the ps store update this late.are we getting 2.4 or is there a tech problem with qore?there have to be a reason for the hold up can u tell its?
Can’t wait. Ton of awesome stuff. If I had a psn card I would subscribe for Quore. Well off to beg my parents to use the cerdit card….
10:16 central time, bad news, no update
Wow, I was waiting patiently for this all day. At this point I don’t have much patience left. It is already 11:15 p.m. EST
I got an update Sony sucks balls
Wow, I’m don’t agree with them being unprepared to deliver this update, It downright suck as a matter of fact.
However, I’m glad my day doesn’t revolve around one thing, or I might be as pathetic as you people :D
Go to sleep, check back tomorrow, is your life really that empty, that this is the only satisfaction you get from your day?
@533
considering a yearly sub will cost less now then buying all 13 “issues” seperatly, maybe it should be if you pay now for a yearly and don’t enjoy the service after the first ep/iss, you get a full refund, after that a partial refund based on how many eps/iss’s you downloaded. or, first one free, pay for rest if you like it.
1,000 comments it’s a bit too much but let’s make it to 600+
COME on
ALL sh*t talking aside, lets be gratefull we have a PS3.. even with all their weird imperfections. WHat kind of gaming world would this be if all we had to choose was wii and red rings ( you know who u are)??
my mom just died waiting for this
** I dont**
Correction for *564*
Well, it’s nice to see that everyone’s mellowed out (or simply left :P ). It looks like there’s plenty of fun going into racking up the post count. XD
I’ll help you on your way.
It is 8:17 where I live though I’ve been preparing for finals for about an hour or two- haven’t really bothered to check the update.
the socom beta doesn’t start tonight man.
***Sigh,*** If only I could work at Sony and witness their abject madness first hand…
IMO, I bet that Grace called it quits about four hours ago and is currently at home trying to to break her Hula Hoop score on Wii Fit.
@MadGamer527
Didnt say you werent. Its just supposed to come out then and then if it doesnt, we have a reason to be pissed. lol
@564
dude every thursday all i look forward to all day is this update. so yeah i’m kinda pissed.
hmm…would jack thompson sue Sony if a 16-year old downloaded and watched an episode of qore which contained mature-rated content, or coverage of GTA???
………..or would sony be simply be the “best friend” that pointed out the “murder simulator” to him???
…..oh well, maybe we’ll see an article about it on Fox News
