  • ***Could someone confirm that if I buy Angry Birds minis that I can play it on the PS3 without needing a PSP?

  • I like the earlier updates but with that being said i don’t really mind waiting till later i have other things too do then sit around and wait for the update too happen like play games,watch tv, relax from getting from work the whining is really a ridiculous waste of time.

  • Angry Birds and Tetris are way overpriced.

    Angry Birds released at .99 and Tetris is from 1984.

    O_o

    oh well, nothing for me this week.

  • pretty decent update

  • I was disappointed last week that the Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 DLC was taken down before Dec. 31, and now is “gone forever”. Seems they removed it on Dec. 21 when they updated the store last. They removed the free “compatibility packs” too, which you need to play online with others with the DLC.

    I don’t expect an answer on the blog, but I did contact Sony and they said “ask Activision”. Activision said “ask Sony”, so…

  • First update of the NEW YEAR and its a good update but ……..

    Still the same old LAME LATE STORE UPDATE. I don’t understand why SONY can’t get a FIX TIME for their STORE UPDATES. Is it that HARD to get a FIX TIME for UPDATES SONY!!

  • @DZORMAGEN

    Too bad Angry Birds is $5 on iPad. Explain that.

  • Just wanted to point out a minor error. GTI Club Supermini Fetsa! is only a PSP title. Great sale on it though, although I personally would prefer the PS3 edition of GTI Club to see a price drop.

  • Grace/Ro:

    Happy New Year!

    Any real word on the Demon’s Souls Dynamic Theme coming to the US Store? Can’t they just move the file over to the server for the US Store? I just don’t understand why we can’t have the theme for a game that has been out here for well over a year. It is truly the only Dynamic Theme I’ve ever seen that I would actually pay money for.

    Thanks!

  • Angry Birds is a ps mini? no trophy support, that sucks.

  • Lead & gold
    my body is ready for update

  • @S_Y_N_1_S_T_3_R

    mini’s can be played on both PS3 and PSP unless specifically noted in the description (e.g. Tetris PSP mini)

  • Great Update! I was skeptical at first with +…. I am a first day buyer of the plus service. I complained at first, but it got better and better overtime. I am so glad I purchased plus and will purchase it next time in september when my sub runs out. But I have received so much free content that I dont know what to do with myself. I have received 4 times as much as what I paid for the plus service. Thank you Grace and the team that is behind the scenes putting this all together :)

  • New Year, same cr@p every Tuesday with the update time.

    @FredNation
    Japanese and European Store update around the same exact time (give or take a few minutes) each week regardless of the amount of contents. So what your point?

  • I’m looking at Tetris and Angry Birds. I want them both!!

    >_<

    "NEOGEO Station PS3 Bundle Pack ($79.99)
    ‘NEOGEO Station’ PlayStation3 system BUNDLE PACK – This PS3 Version Game Bundle features ten nostalgic NEOGEO classics any fan of SNK will surely enjoy: ALPHA MISSION II, ART OF FIGHTING, BASEBALL STARS PROFESSIONAL, FATAL FURY, LEAGUE BOWLING, MAGICIAN LORD, METAL SLUG, SAMURAI SHODOWN, SUPER SIDEKICKS, and THE KING OF FIGHTERS ’94."

    Is it even worth it? $80 is a lot. I mean more than a freakin PS3 game, and the same price as a collector's edition of PS3 game with tons of extras.

    I guess for me it's not worth it since all I want from that pack is:

    ART OF FIGHTING
    FATAL FURY
    METAL SLUG
    SAMURAI SHODOWN
    THE KING OF FIGHTERS ’94.

    So about $10 each would be $50. I guess it's cheaper to get it w/ the bundle but $80 on a digital item is a bit much…really.

  • Any sign of Tomba! or Suikoden 2 on PSN this year even.

  • LMAO a black ops theme??? they actually think someone will buy that when the game doesnt even work

  • and where the hell is Football manager handheld 2010 (PSP)
    last update you say sale, but I never found it on the PS store.

    If you don’t really want to give a sale, then dont announce it! Don’t use fake Sales to fool us.

  • Why would you WANT GT1 or GT2? Have you PLAYED GT5?????

    Besides ps1 games play on the PS3

  • Excellent update, definitely playing some Tetris tonight and that Bionic Commando offer is really tempting. Any word on Xenogears? My disc copy started freezing up on me at a certain point and I can’t progress.

  • @54

    OMG its a new year and you are still crying over the Demons Soul theme? News flash: If it hasnt been put up long ago, more than likely it is not going to even come. Also it doesnt help that all questions regarding the Demons Soul theme have always gone unanswered.

    Seriously, sometimes the only reason i read these comments is to laugh at you people that cry over and over again about some theme, keep asking for a reply to your questions, yet get ignored every single week. Demons Soul was released what, over a year ago i think, and you still asking about the theme.

    LOL….. LOL….. LOL

  • @stlcardinal9

    COD: BLACK OPS works fine for me and most people I know. Don’t know what your talking about.

    Explain yourself!

  • Happy new year.
    so when are we gonna get Parasite eve 1&2, the japanese store has it up so when is north america gonna get some love from Aya.

  • 3D content: 0
    As an avid 3D TV (and PC) owner I think you need to take this seriously. I have a 3D laptop (ASUS G53JW-3DE) and 3D TV (Sony *yes, your brand* KDL-55HX800 55” LCD 3D TV) and I must say, SONY Playstation 3 has done the BEST job making 3D content available. However, you need to keep it up! I don’t care if its just a video on (for example) Mortal Kombat in 3D, but something 3D related needs to be on these updates.
    3D TVs cost the same as standard Plasma/LCD/LED TVs now and you need to continue to be the front runner on “true” 3D content!

    Nvidia is giving you a run for your money, they currently have over 400 game supported using NVIDIA 3D vision; please don’t fall behind! http://www.nvidia.com/object/3d-vision-3d-games.html
    Again, I own both a laptop using NVIDIA 3D vision and SONY 3D TV /w PS3. I’d personally hate to see SONY owned by NVIDIA, but you’re on your way unless you keep it up with new TRUE 3D content!

  • Hey Grace, Happy New Year and just one question. =)

    Yesterday on the ModNation Monday Blog, there was supposed to be a Mod for $0.99 scheduled for release today, what happend to it? I don’t see it in the store nor in this blog post.

    Any info? Thanks =)

  • Great! Thanks for the great PS+ content! Wish Tetris had a discount. XD.

  • Thanks for the PS Plus content. :)

  • I came on here too see what all was in the update i’m so tired of hearing about the whining comments not every store update is gonna be earth shattering and whining like a baby doesn’t help getting your questions answered either.

  • I liked the update it’s not the best update no doubt but,I’m happy that Tetris is out and ill try out the Microbot and Ricochet demo and a nice tron theme and my wallet will appreciate this week a lot better :P

  • Wasn’t Spyro the dragon already free for Plus before?

  • Hello Ms Chen:
    Love the update. Might buy some games this week. However my concern is that I read in the Playstation Magazine that Qore was coming on Jan 4th. (Today) just wanted to know what’s going on with that? Love Playstation, Love Sony,

    Thanks,
    Train1999

  • How come did taxes got up in Canada??? I haven’t heard of taxes raise in Canada… hope you don’t make everyone pay for UK’s taxes raise…

  • Here’s some math for you Sony regarding the Angry Birds pricing.

    1 million downloads at 99 cents in the iTunes App store is $990,000. To get the same amount of money at $3.99 you need to sell 248,121 copies.

    People are much more willing to spend 99 cents on a game than $3.99. So while you only need 1/4th the number of people to buy the game to make the same amount of money, I’d wager you’ll get a lot less than that.

    Oh and Angry Birds is free on Android phones.

    Regardless of all that, Angry Birds is a lot easier to play on a touch screen than with a joy stick. In other words, don’t expect a lot of sales.

  • oh man, this is probably the best update ever!!! :D

    love spyro, probably the first video game i played and liked, cant wait to play it and wanna try kung fu live demo

  • Pixeljunk shooter 2!!!! Probly next week. The blog is pumping up with news and is about to blow :3

  • loving the ps plus! I can’t wait to play Lead and Gold!

    Angry Birds is a little pricey. But the PC owners pay $5 for it

  • @59 I never said I was giving a point. Also the “Japanese and European Store” are both different compared to US. Each region has different items that are being brought up on the store, so some things may be slower. Now I’m not saying your wrong on what you stated but everything is different, BUT maybe, just maybe they can update on a certain time every Tuesday.

  • Where’s…

    Chrono Cross
    Mega Man Legends
    Mega Man Legends 2
    Misadventure of Tron Bonne
    Parasite Eve
    Parasite Eve 2
    Xenogears

  • Tell me you guys are planning to release Loaded in the PSOne mix as well. Re-Loaded is great and only bested by the first installment.

  • Ms. Chen, are PlayStation Plus subscriptions stackable? In other words, can I buy a new subscription prior to my current subscription expiring, thus extending my subscription by that amount of time without having to wait until the end of my current subscription?

    I know you can do it with Live, and it’d make it easier for a guy with a variable income like me to renew he happens to have some spare cash.

  • what about Project Overkill!!!

  • This is a pretty weak way for the store to start the new year….

  • While the price drops aren’t particularly interesting, or the PS1 classics, or even any of the PSP content, it’s still overall a pretty good update; 4 out of 5 stars.

    Hope next week is at least comparable, though it would have been nice for this one to be impressive and set the tone for a strong 2011.

  • Why are the update times still late and inconsistant?

    We’ve been asking for early and consistant update times for years and you still continue to maintain the unacceptable status quo.

    Everyone else can update consistantly except for you, why does this continue to happen?

  • Can we please get a sale on the Dragon Age DLC and Awakening? XBL got a bunch of sales for that content last year, but we have yet to get even one…

    I’m really starting to regret buying it for PS3.

  • @RiverCityRansom thanks for the info

  • Hi guys…I wanted to make a suggestion but first thanks for all the hard work your team does to bring us updates every week. Try not to let the whiners annoy you.

    My suggestion is in regards to the preview feature. I notice some titles and themse utilize this and some do not. My suggestion isn’t to make this mandatory, but I find this very helpful in getting an initial feel for a game, demo and theme before I purchase. It seems though that the preview feature is used very little; is there way to ‘encourage’ this functionality to be utilized more?

    Thanks again!

  • How is that Neo Geo Collection price justified? It wouldn’t have cost near that much if we bought whatever came out 2 weeks ago now would it? That is absurd. Why would I spend all this money when for $20 I could get the SNK Collection on my Wii/PS2/PSP?

  • The Underwater disco theme isn’t in the PS+ section.

  • Cool update! Got LEAD AND GOLD, TETRIS, RICOCHET HD and a whole bunch of themes and avatars. Thank you SONY!!!!
