  • Is Sony done doing PS Store updates? The last one was 12/13/16.

  • Really missing the old PS store update blog. I know The drop is supposed to consolidate it, but it doesn’t tell me price drops, add-ons, sales, etc. Any chance of the Drop expanding its information?

  • so: what happened to ‘divide’?…

  • oh my god please bring back the PS Store update.
    bring back the PS Store update.
    bring back the PS Store update.
    bring back the PS Store update.
    bring back the PS Store update.

    please.

  • So I guess the store updates are really gone. On the plus side I’ve noticed I spend less money on the store. It’s my chance to finish my backlog then.

  • I feel like Sony was at a high in terms of caring for the customer at PS4 release time and it’s been a downhill slide to now when they don’t even care enough to let us know what’s in the weekly update.

  • I just wanted to say thanks for saving me so much money by ditching the official store update we used to get. I have not purchased much of anything since the switch.

  • Digimon World Next Order *-*

    Sony and Bandai please release on PSVita too… Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth was the best selling of 2016 USA Digital Game for PSVita <3

    I have Cyber Sleuth on PS4 and Vita… NOW I need Next Order too *-*

  • I guess we’re not getting “Divide” on PSN in Canada. That’s a shame. The game looked pretty good.

  • On top of the weekly update being shelved, looks like $ony has started to charge sales tax on digital downloads as well. Time to start buying my games elsewhere to save a few bucks. The middle man will profit from this debacle…!

  • Hitman… finally!

  • PSN got rid of their weekly sales. Let’s not sugarcoat it and pretend the weekly sales are in the drop. I used to buy so many digital games and now I rarely ever buy digital games. It has been a few months. Sony is kicking themselves in the head. All we have are flash sales once in a while. I feel bad for the people who pay for ps+.

  • Where’s all the info of new dlc for this week?

  • I barely ever post here because I know the comments are ignored. But I must join the chorus. BRING BACK THE PLAYSTATION STORE UPDATE! Pass these comments on to your superiors, Ryan!

  • Am I missing something or is Divide not on the Canadian PSN Store?

  • Oh look, another lame Drop post with as little info as possible. You can keep these stupid minimalist Drop posts and bring back the Store update.

    I am not going to your slow store every week and clicking through pages of “deals”. I haven’t been to the store since last year.

    I hope you lose sales because you as a company are too lazy to sell your products and expect the consumer to waste their time searching through your slow, click happy web store.

    Bring back the Store update and drop this Drop nonsense. Sorry Ryan, but these posts plain out suck.

  • Trying to find divide in UK store but only find it on a American store. Was this release date for Europe wrong?
