Hey everyone,
It’s the final week of celebrating Only On PSN with the release of 2 exclusive PSN titles: inFAMOUS: Festival of Blood and PixelJunk SideScroller! Don’t forget that this is also the last week that you can purchase these, or any other content from the Store to go towards the $60 threshold to receive $10 back in November.
inFAMOUS: Festival of Blood delivers a darker adventure for Cole; complete with new powers, (did we mention he flies?) a new look for the city of New Marais, and access to the complete suite of User Generated Content tools. This downloadable inFAMOUS adventure is standalone and doesn’t require you to have previous inFAMOUS titles to play it.
Click here to check out the entire Only On PSN lineup.
For classic shmup action with a twist, you’ll want to get your hands on PixelJunk SideScroller. Q Games puts the PixelJunk twist on the genre with luminescent visuals, incredible bosses, and unforgettable powerups and weaponry to take on the masses.
Other PSN Games arriving this week include the now HD arcade classic Daytona USA, the hilarious puzzle action of Worms Crazy Golf, and just in time for Halloween: Zombie Apocalypse: Never Die Alone.

hey staff why you say Homefront ($29.99)
but on the PSN store the game is 39.99$
can you PLEASE FIX THAT!
Some one mentioned Naruto Ultimate Ninja Impact but I don’t see it on PSN. It was supposed to be released on PSN last week. What’s going on?
Would you all AT LEAST get Activision to put up the product they’re currently selling on store shelves for Black Ops? Stores now have a version of Black Ops that contains Black Ops and the first DLC pack, First Strike for the price you all have just the game listed over PSN. This should be very unacceptable. If a company is offering an upgraded product in stores for a similar cost that they’re looking to sell their product for over PSN, they should be required to include ALL CONTENT that you’d get with the physical disc version.
ok i have a story,
i bought a new PS3 this weekend for my son birthday.
i wanted to bakup the old PS3 to the new one
with the transfer data utility
the old PS3 is a 320gb & im bakup on the new 320gb
but the problem is not there,
i started the “data utility transfer” this 23rd october around 9PM
its been 48h in a row that it is bakup data and still not finish (87%)
it go like 1% every 6~7hours now
that’s a shame!
so now im assuming it will take 50 more hours for the last 13%
so that mean my son cant play is new ps3 he got to is birthday becose it take 5 days to backup 320gb!?!?!?
PLEASE FIX THIS!
GT5 DLC… Thats all I need, thanks!!!
****PROUD PS+ MEMBER****
Crap disregard my previous complaint about Festival of Blood not giving the 20% discount for the preorder, cause I did get the $7.99 price, I apologize!
The issue with the GT5 entitlements not showing up in the GT5 import screen should be resolved now. Please try again.
GT5 DLC still isn’t showing up.
Also i was very disappointed with the “wait and see” attitude of the Customer Service rep i spoke with.
I’m one of the unfortunate many who paid more than once because of the confusion, and im left with “well ill send a request for a refund.”
This multiple purchase, however silly of me to do, could’ve been avoided if it just showed up correctly.
I guess i was expecting “yes sir, let me refund you ASAP for the confusion”.
As long as i get what i paid for, ill be happy.
and i want my extra $11.99 back.
Whelp, no excuse for me to not pick up Mercury Hg.
Was getting kinda lazy on it due to my pre-existing backlog……but at 50% off? Impulse buy.
I like how Brian Dunn responded to me (and two others) with the link for the download instructions as if we were unaware. I had posted that same link on my GT5 league site yesterday.
Ah well, I turned around after dinner and the DLC finally worked.
I bought the GT5 content for $11.99 ($8.99 for PS + members) and it worked without a problem the first time. Thank you Mr. Dunn and the PSN Staff for all your hard work. The new GT5 content is great.
Downloading FOB as we speak. BF3 is amazing, as expected. Looking forward to UC3 next week.
For all those complaining about the price of black ops, I’d say it’s a fair deal. Not great, but fair depending on how you look at it. I have two playstation 3s. With the plus discount it’s only $40, and with that I can put the game on both of my systems and I’ll be able to enjoy MP for once when my family and friends come over who insist on playing splitscreen(which is terrible). The main buying point for me is being able to play matches of zombies with my girlfriend/friends without having to do splitscreen. Not to mention I have the disc version that I can sell off for around $20-25 dollars. In the end, 2 digital copies for a price of $15 on my end. Obviously this isn’t appealing to people who dislike the series but for those who enjoy it just look at it in that perspective. To each their own, though.
$50 for Black Ops? wow! is super ultra cheap! (sarcasm)
I hope there would be a demo of inFamous since I don’t normally buy digital games without trying them first but I’m 99% sure this game is awesome so I’m going to have to buy it
So… how do I get my money back? I’m a plus subsciber and I paid full price for the GT5 DLC.
At this time, you will want to reach out directly to Customer Service. Apologies for the inconvenience on this note, but thank you for your patience on the matter
