  • Now THIS is how a psp update is suppose to look like!

    Great work guys!

  • Getting PJ Shooter as soon as I get home. Also: YAY for Gradius Collection finally becoming downloadable.

  • No avatars still? I’ve been getting alot more javascript errors recently since the new fw patch! Anyone else???

  • what’s with the ridiculous ps1 games that no one gives a crap about? seriously how bout putting some good games that people have actually been asking for. it really is mind boggling to think about who and why on earth would some of these games be put up to download. “bomberman party edition let’s put that on the store! its one of the most asked for ps1 games!” ….. ridiculous.

  • Great Update. Picked up Pixeljunk Shooter; the DLC for Dragon Ball, inFamous, High Velocity Bowling & PAIN; and Coded Arms. Looking at picking up for a few more PSP games but I’ll see what I can sell my UMD copies for, I’d get Castlevania too if I didn’t already have Symphony of the Night.

  • @Darth-Krayt

    Just so you know; PS1 versions of Final Fantasy I, II, VII, VIII, Tactics are all available on the Japanese store.

    I myself would like to get FFVIII, but wanted Sony to get off their a**es and give PSP Go owners the full back catalog of UMD PSP games. The selection available for the Go is laughable.

    It doesn’t matter anymore, since I got rid of it because as usual Sony is breaking promises.

    Keep it up Sony and I’ll get rid of all my other PS3s, PSPs, and games.

    getting so tired of this…

  • i have to say, i played Dante’s Inferno demo today….

    i think it does alot of different things, but the comparison with game play elements that replicate god of war III is too obvious. if Dante’s Inferno came out around halloween this year or maybe months after god of war III i would probably get it. but ill pass.

  • the demo is way too short. and i think Visceral Games should just continue to work on Dead Space 2.

    Dante’s Inferno is really reaching for the god of war audience, although i think this will sell well on the 360 because of the god of war mock.

  • Silent Hill Origins?

    ………

    I NEED A PSN CARD! NOW!!!

  • Where’s the Uncharted pack-in thing?

  • Holy sh** this is a huge update :)

  • ALRIGHT! Love for the PSP AND the PS3! And, by extension, love for the PSP AND PS3 owners! (And the effect is amplified for those with both- I believe 1.5x. Hells to the yeah.) It looks like I’ve got some downloading to do. =D

  • Dante inferno was really cool demo but if it is a bate mini games letters are really hard to read.

  • great update! I’m gonna buy PixelJunk for sure

    Oh btw thanks for bringing the uncharted comics to Canada, i hope to see a video store for us in 2010

  • Yet again…

    Vagrant Story, please!

  • DAMMIT I need $0,03 to buy pixeljunk shooter…

  • Awesome Store update. And may I just say that I love the background theme you guys got going in the background! Makes me want a holiday dynamic theme (and being that it’s the season of giving, you guys were going to give it out for free). Just a wish. But one I hope the Sony Santas make come true!

  • No All You Need Is Love for TB : RB?

    Boo for letting MS get the best of you in the first place and double boo for not jumping on it as soon as the exclusivity was up.

  • man that sucks to get the ylod..i know i had it..but got mines fixed in TWO HOURS..yeah TWO HOURS..and it was 5 months ago..and its still kickin..cant wait for the coldfront dlc..its tyme for new maps..SERIOUSLY!

  • Amazing update!

    So many good things this week, 3 PSN games, lots of demos (especially Dante’s Inferno), FREE dlc. I’m loving it…now if only it was always like this ;)

  • The dynamic store front looks awesome… And great update btw :) Happy Holidayz

  • I downloaded Frogger Returns and it’s very fun but the sounds all screwed up, just sounds like a fast ticking, even if I turn off the in-game music and sfx, only happens on this game. Anyone else having this problem and/or know how to fix it? I have a 60 gb launch PS3 if that helps.

  • whats the YLOD and how do u get it? also, there was a trophy sinc glitch? no wonder i had problems syncing trophies!!!!!

  • FF8…..Sony i love you guys to death.,…in fact anyone who knows me will say im a PS fanboy (its hard not to be). I really want to see the PS3 succeed but in order to do so it needs to sell the classic games (and the current games) to give it the edge it needs…Remember your strong points…..RPG’s and story driven games are were your powers lie….Cant wait till FF8 finally arrives on PS store

  • Really loving the Uncharted 2 behind the scenes videos.

    Really puts into perspective all the hard work and professionalism involved on the project. One that seems to separate this game acting and story telling wise from the rest.

    Amy Hennig is absolutely brilliant! Loved her games with the Legacy of Kain series, and love Uncharted as well.

    True testament with the success of females in game development.

  • sweet update i love the background HAPPY HOLYDAYS EVERYONE!!!!!!!

  • Will you release Dead nation before the end of this year? that would be cool for the holiday

  • Dante’s Inferno demo, here I come :)

  • People say great update every week… it’s ridiculous.

    Anyway, glad to see that inFamous content made available, but other than that there’s nothing on here for me.

  • kool update i played the dantes inferno demo it kicked ass and revenge of the wounded dragons sounds kool btw can any1 tell me wat the psp mini thing means on the new updated xmb and wat other stuff was added or improved cuz i cant find it on here.

  • Thank you for the update. Just a suggestion for consideration, could Sony consider requiring either (i) screen shots or (ii) video clips, of the games that are being uploaded, i.e., the Minis, etc. For me at least, I find the description of the games not enough to make a purchase. Granted, I can usually go to youtube to find something, but it would be nice to be able to see this information, in order to decide if I want to purchase a game, from the PSN store itself.

    PS – Any idea when or if Pac Man: CE is going to be released on the PSP or PS3?

  • When is Yugioh Tag Force 4 for the PSP coming to the Playstation Store?

  • Hey PSN overlords, that current PSN Store snowman/candy cane background would be an awesome dynamic theme.
    Can you make it happen?

  • Ok, some of the updates are cool, but what’s up with MGS portable ops, I have a PSP GO and that update is the one I look for every time I log on.

  • I LOVE how you gus dress up the store for seasons and stuff. I dont know why it just is really really cool! It just makes me happy!

    You guys are the ONLY console makers that actually listen to their users and actually make changes and additions based on feedback. So I thank you for that.

    I love you Sony!!!!! I love you maaaan!

    :)

    -Not drunk

  • [This post ONLY refers to this week’s PS Store for PSP Update.]

    It looks like a pretty cool update for the PSP this week. I’m interested in checking out Bomberman Party Edition, Gradius Collection, and Kurulin Fusion. Plus, it’s great to see Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles as a digital download now even though I own the UMD version. I just wish that there demos for all PSN games (including PSP Minis, PSP, and PSone Classics) were mandatory. Anyhow, thanks for the update.

  • Really am i the only one dissatisfied with all these updates? come on give us some good PS1 classics already. im seriously tired of waiting for great games like FF8 to come out here when its already released in the jap Store. NO we do not want anymore garbage sports games like bowling, golf ect. Give us GOOD games for a change. Ive been waiting week after week for something good but all we get is garbage and MAYBE rarely a decent title. Step your game up, gain the rights to upload the great classics to the PSN and then ill give you some credit. Sorry for the rant but somebody had to say this. Anyone else agree with me or is this blog filled with just fanboys who will settle for anything?

  • PixelJunk Shooter is a must buy.

    Dante’s Inferno is amazing!!

  • What the hell is in the “Season’s Greetings Update?”

  • The Dante’s Inferno demo is really awesome!!

    Can’t wait for that to come out ^_^

  • imo…
    Update rating:
    PSP = 1

    When is GTA:Liberty City getting the much needed framerate fix?

    A word of warning to anyone thinking of buying that game, the frame rate sucks compared to the UMD version.

    Google it, you’ll see that people are complaining to Sony/Rockstar about this.

    I’m a tad bit worried about future 3D ports from UMD to PSN store. It doesn’t bode well, and I’m thinking I’ll sell my Go this Xmas.

    I’ve been depending on my PSP/DSi for gaming lately. I was excited to get the Go, but unfortunately the quality (and selection) of games is less than the original versions of the UMD systems. Yikes, not so cutting edge!

    The PSN store has one key benefit (and it won’t be selection it seems) over the iPod touch & Apple’s appstore. It’s nice to be able to see a list of games I purchased and to re-download them. Other than that, Apple’s app store has a key advantage. New content and QA on faulty content that gets approved :\

  • Hi Grace,
    I recently heard that Spelunker HD was finally picked up for a NA release. Have you heard anything about it, what company, projected release date?
    Do you think Eye of Indra might get bundled for North America?
    Thanks for the demos of Topatoi and Mushroom Wars!
    Happy holidays!

  • PJ Shooter! its AMAZING. don’t miss it people.

  • us.Playstation.com not Functioning???

    Anyone Else having this Problem???

    I Log into the us.playstation Site and if I try to go to my Trophies or friends pages I get a Session Time out message…

    I usually access from this Link

  • Will there be more tekken 6 free stuff? last week there was, but it’d be great if it could get some more,and will there be WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2010 content for more clothes for created superstars, more match types ect.?

  • Does the ps3 mini’s thing mean we’ll be able to play all psp games on the ps3 one day?
    Id love to play chains of olympus and gran turismo portable on my ps3 :)

  • hello grace, if you are reading this and u are able to answer the following question, that be great,if not, that’s all right.

    Are there plans to release the following psOne Classics: Gex: Enter the Gecko, Bloody Roar 2, Resident Evil:Survivor, Dino Crisis 2? I’m guessing some of those will be on there since other installments in their respective series were released on the PS store. Also if possible, will you guys be releasing Parasite Eve 1 and 2 on the PS Store, that would probably get fans ready for the upcoming new game on PSP sometime in the future. There are so many fans of Parasite Eve, the first one is very popular. Sorry for this being too long. Thank u.

  • I’m gonna need a bigger Hard Drive

  • Grace,
    a fews months ago, about august, I bought Call of Duty World at War Map Pack 2. After the pending, I tried to download it, but it had an error code 800….something and I accidentally deleted it. Is there anyway to get it back and be able to download/install?

  • SWEET an Infamous add-on!!! I like the holiday look in the Playstation Store very wintery.
