Terraria: PS4 Edition — Demo
The information above is subject to change without notice.
I preordered Lego Batman 3 and it already downloaded. Why does it still want me to buy the game on the game’s detail page?? That will be very frustrating. If I own the game, PSN needs common sense that i obviously am not buying 2 digital copies of the same game.
@31
Well said.
I thought people would have learned by now that you can’t get everything you want. We’re lucky this game is even being localized and on a VERY SMALL budget. Either we get this game subtitled or no game at all. I’d rather not see people demanding this game to come to the West over and over as opposed to demanding an english dub. In fact some of these people that were requesting it are now backing out for this minor reason and this is exactly why Namco doesn’t want to localize in the first place. To them it’ll look like a waste of time and money.
I’d rather see them bring Innocence R over here ASAP. I don’t care if it has no dub I will support it regardless.
Hopefully Tales of Hearts R is coming this Tuesday. However if it isn’t then I can continue playing Freedom Wars without dividing my attention on the vita.
Tales and Assassins’s Creed Unity (PS4) for me this week.
@16 @17 @21 @23 @48
Terraria PS3 and Vita are two separate purchases. Why would they give Terraria PS4 for free? Especially considering it has added content.
Just wait a couple of months for IGC. First Light was launched right before September and it’s already going to be free soon.
Yes! I am so stoked to get to play Digimon All-Star Rumble this Tues. Had it preordered at GameStop ever since it was announced and now I’m finally gonna get to play it.^^
isn’t tales of hearts r this tuesday as well? i thought it would be listed here but it’s ok
Terraria PS4 – is it cross-buy? Cross-save from PS3?
Is Lego Batman 3 for Vita is going to be more like the console version? I really hope so. I hope that it is not as bad as Lego Marvel was for Vita.
Hi. When will be a new 99 cents flash sale?
Decent week, although nothing for me.
Finished up the COD AW campaign and lent my digital copy to a friend. Picked up a digital share of Legend of Korra for $8 today so hopefully finish that by the 18th, just in time for my share of Dragon Age to unlock. Digital Deluxe for $30 was too hard to resist.. seriously hope that game is more like Origins, and not Dragon Age 2.

Assassin’s Creed Unity
What’s the price on Nano Assault?
when do we get the 15 back from the spend 100 get 15 promo ???????
@63
Check your inbox on your system, and your email. I got my $15 back a couple days ago. It even told me exactly how much I’d spent to hit it.
I cleared it by a healthy margin. =D
@10
Kill kill kill kill kill kill. (They missed it in the Blogcast too.)
@rabidninjamonky: You can actually buy it off Amazon, now, if you want. The game’s available, on Bandai’s site, and they ship through Amazon: http://www(dot)bandainamcogamesstore(dot)com/dp/B00N5527CG#.VGALJTTF-i0

@DamagingRob Cool, thanks I will definitely do that.
You forgot Tales of Hearts R for Vita. It comes out Tuesday
Tales of Hearts R isn’t on the list? GameStop called me and said my copy would be in this Tuesday so I know it comes out this week.
I laugh at the dude who said Voice acting is expensive, then Names some of the biggest names in gaming voice acting. Firstly, you can OUTSOURCE the VO, which is incredibly cheap compared to doing it themselves. Second, some companies get games dubbed sell 30 thou and are in the profit, not sure where you think it’s a big difference. Furthermore, having JP VO on new licensed content outside of the original contracted area has to be contracted and licensed again, meaning they still gotta pay and give incentives. If Namco didn’t own the Tales games and had to do all that work, it would be acceptable, but this is just a lazy move. Only reason I’m still getting it is to hopefully see the other Vita Tales game released and get a dub. Plus atleast I can get a physical copy. SAO left the most disgusting taste in my mouth for localization and I’ll never defend no dubs from Namco after that disrespect. How dare you only DD release, with no dub, Google translated level subs, and at full price…
Any chance we’ll eventually see any of these PS1 games?
Saga Frontier
Jade Cocoon
Vandal Hearts 1 and 2
My poor poor wallet ;_;
I wasn’t gonna buy anymore major games for a while, but I caved and bought the gold edition of AC: Unity. I seriously gotta quit for a while though. When I got my $15 credit back from that spend $100 deal last month, Sony was kind enough to remind me of how much I spent. I won’t say how much it was, but I think I overdid it a little.
Is there a digital version for LEGO Batman 3 for PS3? I know the PS4 got to pre-order it for digital but is it coming to PS3 Tuesday as a digital?
@70
Never before have I seen such a well articulated, thoughtful post from someone who has almost zero idea what they’re talking about. Kudos to you for that.
I don’t really care if it’s dubbed or not, but I always prefer dubs over subs.
What I don’t care for from Namco, however, is:
1. Changing Shing’s name to Kor (the voices will still refer to him as Shing)
2. DLC exclusive to CE/preorder/Strategy Guide (recent Tales games)
3. Any changes to the original script (unless they’re minor ones, like grammatical corrections)
4. The translation used for SAOHF (it was taken directly from the Asian English version)
DROPS!

Yaaaaay!
Why not add the sales in the Drop also
@57,
Since we haven’t heard a lot about the Vita version of Lego Batman 3, my guess is that it’s going to be another bad port done in isometric view like Lego Marvel and Lego Movie.
Lego Batman 2 on the Vita, even if it wasn’t the same game as the console version, was still a “proper” Lego game closer to a console version. And I had fun with it. The latest ones, starting from Lego Marvel, looks like mobile-friendly versions you’d find on phones and tablets. I remember playing some Lego games on my old iPad 2 (Harry Potter) some time ago and it was the same isometric perspective. Not as fun as a “real” console-like version. But then again, I paid like, 1 or 2 bucks for it…
If it’s more like Lego Batman 2, I’ll buy it. If it’s another poor port like the other recent Lego games, hummm, no thanks. I’ll pass. (but that’s probably what it’ll be, sadly).
I got AC Unity and AC Rogue from Target’s B2G1 sale. Unfortunately, Lego Batman 3 wasn’t included in the sale, so instead I got Sleeping Dogs: The definitive Edition as the free one. In all, a good deal all around.
Senran Kagura!! Only getting that this week, I hope the other avatars finally hit PSN, too.
Ok seriously guys, information is the bulk of your job. If you genuinely dont know and cant get the answers to our questions, thats bad enough on its own, but to blatantly ignore the vast majority of the questions and very consistantly answer the few with the vaguely uninformed responses is really insulting. Im asking on behalf of a lot of concerned and rather patient PAYING customers. Is the ps4 version of terraria crossbuy in any way shape or form? Is there some form of upgrade option to the updated verion of retro city rampage? Whats going on with the lack of info with lego batman 3 psn pre order issues? What about the preloading on pretty much all the digital games coming out tomorrow? Etc etc. These kinds of questions are about 90% of the comments, the least you guys could do is acknowledge them with an informed answer. That is all, thanks for the info in advance
No mention of Tales of Hearts R? :( This game needs more love!!!
Which content version of Terraria is it?
Is it me or is batman lego 3 not on the PS Store not for PS3 pre-order? I see the PS4 version
@ alphagoku1:
Except, this is the ENTIRELY WRONG PLACE to be asking for support. This is a PR blog, not a support blog. Sony has Customer Service. If you scroll down to the bottom of the page, go to Knowledge Center and scroll down again, there’s a Contacting Support link. The idea, as most people around the internet will do to most people asking questions, is force you to ask a search engine first. If you can’t find a suitable answer, then you contact support personnel.
I’m getting really tired of all these idiots asking the “Social Media Specialist” (as listed in the authorship of the article) and other PR employees technical questions about PSN. They do not have that information. They will never have that information. They are not paid to have that information. It is NOT THEIR JOB to have that information. Go bug support, not the people who are essentially paid to create and sustain hype.
For those who find it too hard to look for help themselves, here’s the link: support.us.playstation.com/app/contact_options/session/L3RpbWUvMTQxNTY1MDI5Ny9zaWQvWDZuX3M1N20%3D
@aizawaYuuichi:
not all of the questions are technical support inquiries, mind you . and when it becomes a question that more than half of the userbase is asking about, it becomes a PUBLIC RELATIONS representatives job. spamming a support forum when there are many other countless people with legitimate problems with something technical based would be a step in the wrong direction. the point of this whole blog is to inform us about upcoming things involving sony, including their games, if they can only half ass it, whats the point of having it? and another thing to keep in mind about this whole thing, this is an OFFICIAL sony website, these people get paid to find and relay information,if they cant find an official answer, what makes you think ill just settle for someone else’s speculation?this is regardless if its technical or just arbitrary game info, “social media specialist”. you’re entitled to your own opinion, as am i. so long as i am not interfering with your ability to view the blog as you normally would, you shouldnt be attempting to enforce your method of information gathering on me. thank you very much
Is Terraria Cross-Buy for those who already own it?
I don’t mind that there isn’t a dub for Tales of Hearts R, what I am truly worried about is the translation being as terrible as it was in SAO. Since that release I’ve had to become more hesitant with my namco purchases. I am not a big enough fan to allow a poor quality translation pass as acceptable for any game. I don’t care if the argument is that it will never be localized otherwise, I’ll continue to learn hiragana/katakana/kanji. (Btw, Yokai Watch is a great game to learn hiragana.) I’m probably going to give it a week to see if the translation makes sense before I buy it.
Couldn’t be bothered to add Retro City Rampage while it was free to Plus, so I doubt I’ll be jumping in now.
I kinda wish Ring Run Circus was available on PS3. Looks like my kind of game.
@AizawaYuuichi: None of this belongs to you.
Can someone plz tell me when Tales of hearts R is gonna be added to the playstation shop I’ve been waiting for hours
