  • so can i get a list of the ps+ items? even though they aren’t posted yet???

  • Where is the PSN avatar??

  • My Amazon.com voucher doesn’t work yet…I’ll wait for the store update. Is Costume Quest going on sale this morning?

  • This has to be the lastest I’ve ever seen the PSN not update.

    If I had a puppy, I’d kick it.

  • What’s with all this corporation fail recently.

    First Ragnarok Online drops the ball and completely destroys it’s game balance with an imba test NPC on main servers…

    and now a Playstation Store update that is.. oh, 6 hours late?

    Amazing.

  • @PSN_ZJJ
    where did you get a code for Critter Crunch from anyway?

  • My Amazon voucher worked, about time.

  • kicking puppies ftw

  • Guys Remember it’s 9:30PM in California hehe. well 9:26PM PST

  • Waiting…

  • @Jeffsmither

    I got it on Amazon.com for a friend but he had already bought Critter Crunch himself.

  • @jeff
    like you believed him

  • what time does ur staff get off work and we should lose complete hope?

  • My bundle code has no avatar listed

  • @1367

    Ken is basicly telling us what we already know/ repeating somthing some one already posted.

    credit?

  • Uhhhh….

    ….why does my bundle not include the PSN avatar?

  • @1350 – Wird.

  • You know what I think the Voting machines took over the servers at Sony in California that how come no psn store updated hehe.

  • @Ken Chan’s respone to Anubis80 if the voucher redeem codes for the pre-orders have been resolved why is it still not working?

  • is there anyway we will be able to download the soundtrack and the director movies without a ps3????????

  • What’s the point of having the voucher codes without the game to go with it on the store for PSP Go owners? What’s the point of having random users tell other users to use “search” functions for the game. I wouldn’t trust downloading anything at the moment until the store updates.

    Seriously, Ken, just tell us the issue. Tell us why there is a delay. Stop side stepping and just tell us the problem.

  • almost 1400 posted :D

  • PSN AVATAR MISSING?

  • It really is a shame. But Sony needs to get their act together in terms of these updates. I have to go to work early, and wanted to download the new God of War to my PSPGo for my commute. The fact of the matter is that Sony has really put a high price on satisfaction these days.

    We have our free online gaming, but at the cost of reliability. I’m not saying every week needs to be the exact same time but midnight EDT time means it’s not even Tues. anymore. The problem, for me, is I’ve got no favorable options left. People say “don’t complain–it’s free!” and I used to agree. And others: “PSN is unreliable; I’d gladly pay to have Sony fix issues”. But the real problem becomes the fact that I no longer trust Sony to fix the problems due to their demonstrated inability to properly handle or maintain an online network.

    I wouldn’t mind waiting until Wed., but I simply don’t like being told that updates are Tuesdays, and then waiting with absolutely no productive communication. I appreciate your continued responses Ken, but until someone tells me WHY the update is delayed, I won’t agree that it’s productive. And again, the day-late downloads have me pretty annoyed, having supported the overpriced PSPGo.

  • Now 1400 :D

  • thats a big’n

  • i still cant redeem my codes lol

  • I’m waiting for 1500

  • Yay my GS voucher code worked, except one BIG problem. The vast majority of the content is PS3 downloadable only, according to the area after I entered the code. I do not have, and cannot afford a PS3. So my PSP, which is perfectly capable of playing video content and music, cannot download the developer’s roundtable OR soundtrack? Seriously? What the hell is this?

  • Dam nuts 1404 :)

  • ~100 more to go.
    Who ever is offering the free code better not pull a “PSN Store Update” and screw the winner over…..

  • @Demonic Clown

    I’m not lying, I have no reason to. Comment number will get a Critter Crunch code. I promise.

  • Preorder bundle is all set! I did this amazing thing while waiting, I played the game. Blown away by the first 2 hours, great job ReadyAtDawn!

  • @SuperTiso I think he already would’ve done that if the decision was his to make, he’s just an ordinary guy doing his job, it’s sony you should be referring to, not ken as a person.

  • @1392

    Because he was just repeating what some one else posted.

  • They’re late because they are sending all Sony employees to work on pressing GT5 copies so everyone will have one before Christmas :P

  • i hope they do, already 100%’d it though or id try for it.

  • I don’t care how great the content is this week, when, or IF the up-date goes LIVE, I will rate it a 1! I think everyone should too! It’s not like this is new for Sony.

  • its graces fault not kens

  • Too bad we can´t use avatars in different accounts =(

  • There will be NO store update. Sony just confirmed it.

  • 100 Comments left!

    If you’re comment number 1500 message me on PSN so I can send you the code!

  • Seriously Sony, how many times do we need to go through this garbage? Get it together. Start working on the store a day before so you can have a consistent time to update the store.

    We’re supposed to learn how to avoid procrastination in High School/College….QUIT PROCRASTINATING, GET IT DONE IN ADVANCE, IN A PROFESSIONAL TIMELY MANNER.

  • man alot of you really need to cool out. these kinds of things happen and given enough time it will be fixed and you will be able to dl what you want. and if youre too lazy to search for the stuff you want be bloody patient and wait. if youre on here whining about a late update im going to assume youre not putting off a hot date to wait for this so chill and let things get worked out in their own time.

  • Ken Chan, Code for Demios and Ultimate dlc bundle for preordering GOW isnt working still, and sony live support is not available, is there any time frame to when this will be finally resolved because the voucher for chains of olympus works fine, deimos and the Ultimate dlc does not and its 12:31pm EST here

  • i love this stuff, its hilarious

  • Actually, the only things it would allow me to download on my PSP were the skin, the arena, and the PSP theme. There was no mention, anywhere, of only being able to download this stuff off the PS3. I am not amused in the least by this.

  • I already have Critter Crunch. Need Killzone 3 beta key. :\
