Any idea when the Heavy Rain DLC codes will be active?
Nice update, for the most part. Wondering where Metal Slug XX and Gunbird 2 are, though.
well today is march 4th. and we all thought things were back to normal. WRONG. expect to hear about another official delay, might as well make it 2013 jan 1st..a day that might not even come in the 1st place. its 5:54pm here pacific..almos 9pm on the east coast so 3/4 of their march 4th is gone already..why even offer a pre-order bonus in the 1st place
?..to make people wait for something imaginary? more frustrated and upset then normal here. we should have had this on day 1 of release
The Heavy Rain pre-order codes still don’t work.
Is there a reason for this? Thanks.
my dante’s inferno divine code isnt working!!!!!!!!!!!!!
oh Yeah and im done with Qore waste of money all the stuff covered is old news. First Thursday of the month unless they feel like holding it off. Free stuff…. i bet its the heavy rain theme i payed for. Im pretty much paying for a chick to fly around the world and talk to devs and then give me old news in a HD video. Betas are cool yeah but not worth my money. If you want me to keep my subscription you need to start doing exclusive game reveals. i dont care about early demos so the bonus downloads need to be better. I doubt Qore can turn into something i would pay for again.
Hm… my code for the Heavy Rain DLC isn’t working. I got my copy off Amazon, if that makes a difference.
You guys do know that the store updated before this post was made right?
I try to put my Redeem Code from Dante’s Inferno Divine Edition and it didn’t work! When I will be able to download the content of Dante’s Inferno with my redeem code?
Eh nothing really that great this week. Guess I’ll just save my money :P
@ 37
Same problem here !
@ Sony
Where’s the HR DLC ?
Awesome update! Penny Arcade bundle, Patchwork demo, JC2, LOVE IT!
another strange note..if u search the blog for “heavy rain”..you’ll notice it does not appear in the search results anymore.
No Heavy Rain DLC!?
Meh update. No PS1 classics. No good demos, No good games. I’ll pass this week.
Also psn, what ever happened to that Demons Souls dynamic theme that Japan has? Where is ours?
Heavy rain content was delayed it won’t be for another week or so.. it says the exact date on the gamestop website
@Dominik:
100% agree.
QORE sucks.
We need answers to why the Heavy Rain DLC is not working!?
Wasn’t the taxidermist expansion suppose to come out today? My amazon code isn’t working…
I called playstation they said when the store update happens heavy rain dlc should be available but theres alot to update so heavy rain might happen if not tonight try tommarow .
i pre orderd off amazon.
they told me this when i messaged them
I’m sorry your pre-order bonus code isn’t working. I’ve forwarded your issue to our Marketing & Promotions Customer Service team. You should hear back from them via e-mail in the next 1-2 business days.
In the meantime, I’ve provided Sony’s Playstation Customer Support Hotline if you need further troubleshooting steps regarding that promo code. M-SAT 6:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m. PSTSunday 7:00 a.m. – 6:30 p.m800-345-7669 (800-345-SONY)
Very nice update.
Quick question – When will our Dante’s Inferno codes (for the prequel pack) start working???
When is Mega Man 10 gonna be up?
Since the prequel level for Dante’s Inferno is available today I was wondering why the code included with the Divine Edition does not work.
Hi Grace,
Were you able to look into the Gravity Crash wallpapers problem? I keep trying to download the “sun” wallpaper and keep getting the “space” wallpaper.
Also could we get the PixelJunk Shooter demo that other regions got recently? I’d really like to try it. Pretty please? : )
How about a FFXIII demo to build up the release?
Any word on funding our PSN wallets with PayPal/PayPal with credit card yet? It would be really helpful.
Another thing about PSN, is it possible to have the trailers, wallpapers, and themes get a check mark by them once we’ve downloaded them? I have a hard time remembering what I’ve already downloaded. Demos and games get a red symbol once we’ve downloaded them.So free stuff should get a check mark or something.
Thanks for the Patchwork Heroes demo. Have a good weekend!
I’m concerned about Qore, on my download list it stops in February even though it has at least five more months. Also, has the Heavy Rain DLC been delayed again?
A comment about Qore will be nice
This is great and all, but one question:
Why doesn’t my Dante’s Inferno Divine Edition code work on the PSN?
The Dante’s Inferno codes for the Dark Forest Pack DLC appear not to be working…any ideas?
Sweet Update!, gonna check out Just cause 2 and download GOW III Vengeance Trailer. Update was worth the wait IMO.
I know you’re not in the habit of replying to the replies here Grace, but any word on a Resonance of Fate demo next week?
Appreciate any response.
What about the Heavy Rain pre-order DLC?
Cool update, I would like to see some more ps1 classic, and or shoot em ups.
like Einhander, Thunder Force V, G Darius
or some imports like DonPachi/DoDonPachi, or Deathsmiles.
Seriously, the Heavy Rain DLC codes still don’t work??
Dante’s Inferno Dark Forest DLC and more battles for Dynasty Warriors:Strikeforce make me happy….
Still surprised theres no MLB the Show demo…
And why does it take multiple weeks to release MLB team themes?? Of course my team will be one of the last ones released…
Decent update though
Qore is next week due ot a feature on FF13, iirc (Saw an answer earlier on the blog).
But..where IS that Heavy Rain DLC? I didn’t pre-order but I’d happily slop down 5 bucks for more Heavy Rain.
Oh well. Puzzle fighter it is!
I’ll get just just cause 2 demo.
Yeah i wanted to say “just just”, yep i have fun really cheap huh?
Any news of Jade Cocoon: Story of the Tamamayu coming to the PSN?
I think most of us are wondering the same.
When the codes for the DLC of Heavy Rain will work?? I heard it got only 1 week delay but until now it just don’t work.
and Qore??
When does the Heavy Rain Chronicles code activate? Will we ever see Soul Blade, MDK, and Die Hard Trilogy as PSone classics?
@37 That happened to me earlier as well.
See a lot of complaints of the Heavy Rain DLC code not working yet, but as they said nothing of it, that’s cool.
I’m a bit more frustrated that my code for the DLC in Dante’s Inferno Dark Forest is not being recognized. I waited till Dark Forest was made available, but I won’t “cry” unless tomorrow by noon when everything of the store should be 100%.
The question though would be… Visceral? EA? or PSN? Who fixes it?
And Metal Slug XX? The retail version came out last week, didn’t it?
When are you guys planning to have it?
I’m just happy that Lunar actually hit the PSP store! Good job!
nice dante’s inferno DLC
check comment 71 i called playstation and amazon etc today or tommarow possably for some dlc specifficly i asked about heavy rain dlc
The update was good, but where is the MLB show update??? Put the better game out for demo, instead of the other.
Im still not able to use my Heavy Rain code yet…
Awesome, can’t wait to play the Just Cause demo.
