  • Onigirl wow!! i saw this game like two year ago but i happy we get it :3

  • Onigiri is Cross-Play with pc? ;___;

  • Only Games I saw of interest for me were: Persona4: Dancing All Night, Megaman Legends & Samurai Warriors4-2.
    Onigiri and Gem legends looked kinda meh…everything else I could care less.

  • Sony, please, let us change our PSN nicknames. It would be great. You can even charge us, like Xbox Live :(

  • I noticed that some blog entries are blank (at least on my computer). Are you guys deleting negative comments? Also, missed a daily blog (post). No posts today?

  • I check the drop every single week, hoping to find fat princess supported for the PS Vita, I mean come on! It is a Sony game, it’s not like it is some random company. Anyways still hopeful.

  • Does anyone know how much Hardware Rivals is going to retail for?

  • Hello, logged in just to say I love the new layout! Looks great on my mobile phone.

    Also holy F@&# MML? Can’t wait to play that on my vita!!!

  • wow Karate Champ the original Ryu vs Ken match

  • super casual gamer here so apologies if this question counts as a lame one ! There doesn’t seem to be an option to download a demo version for Uncharted, for me anyways – how will I be able to download it? =)

  • Hey psn what ever happen to the neo geo/fatal fury vote survey awhile back? The most voted on was garuo mark of the wolves and yet no announcement?

  • Loving The Updates, Love PSN & Onigiri.

  • A demo for TND Collection, makes the PS3 versions look like they were Pre-Alpha. lol

    Can’t wait for Onigiri(been playing it on my JP account and it’s amazing) and Dungeon Defenders 2.

  • Really the 1 game ive been waiting for isnt coming out now onigiri is the only game i was waiting on this week

  • I had been looking forward to trying out “Onigiri”, because I love action rpgs like the ones on my PSVita, and to play something like that, multiplayer online, on a console, is something that appeals to me. I usually check the PS store after 2:00am EST, every week for the new games to post and actually set an alarm to wake me up for today. T-T
    Only to find “Onigiri” is crossed out on this list – just that it’s no longer gonna be today. I have other nice games to play and am in love with MGSV, but I kinda wanted something like Onigiri to play in between my 3-4 hour story missions. Lol
    I like to do them all non-lethally, and am still on my first playthrough, so I’m slow about it, and taking my time to savor each satisfying “sneak->grab/tranq->interrogate->BALOON!” abduction that I carry out as I sneak my way through each new area. All while saving prisoners BEFORE they are scripted to be executed. THAT is the most satisfying thing for me, above all – “leave no man behind” like a U.S. Army Ranger in the SFC.^^
    Still wanted to play as an anime ninja character and attack stuff with girly noises whenever I’d swing my weapons, going “Ei~☆! Ei~☆!” the whole time. Lol!

  • Onigiri & DD2 Are Only Things I Need. :)

  • What happen with Onigiri ???? :( i really want try …. any info ???? :(

  • what happened to onigiri? Way to pump us up then bring us down :(.

  • Onigiri rice ball… oh the game, no longer launching on 29th. Someone’s waiting Dream C Club host girls on stage for English version and it’s free to play. P4D yay! I always play vita

  • Really sad to see that OniGiri didn’t launch today. Any idea when the game will come out?

  • Hey I can’t find jurassic world!

  • In case no one knows yet or has said it yet, please, excuse my double-post. I found that “Onigiri” got delayed on both PS4 and XB1, and the Facebook page says that PS4 version releases Oct.6, with XB1 on Oct.2. So we’ll see ours in almost a week, guys and gals. Hope this puts some of you at ease, as it really bummed me out yesterday, seeing the title crossed out at the last minute yesterday, when I’d been waiting all weekend to play it.

  • Oh man I love Onigiri! I got it on my Japanese account. I’m close to level 40. I have no idea what’s happening around me but that’s half the fun of playing it!
