+ Posted by Hi, everyone. Just wanted to give a quick update on what’s new in the PLAYSTATION Store this week. Let’s get straight to the good stuff with four new demos:
• Skate
• NBA 08
• Sega Rally Revo
• Stuntman: Ignition
We’ve also released a new downloadable game, LocoRoco Cocoreccho!, for $6.99. In addition to several new wallpapers, we’ve also posted up some great trailers and videos – everything from GT5 Prologue to Ratchet and Clank Future to Devil May Cry.
Check ‘em out.

Sweet. I’ll be sure to get the Skate demo. Hoping for a breath of fresh air after breathing musky old Tony Hawk. :P (Even if it is done by EA, they can do good things. Just look at NHL 08)
I’m still wondering where Go!Ski is…I remember several weeks ago that was in the “Coming Soon” email but it never showed up?
I still can’t wait for Everyday Shooter.

$7 for Loco Roco!? Man, that’s a little harsh considering other countries are supposed to be getting it for $2 – $3 less, and it isn’t getting too many good reviews.
I’d have no problem getting it for $5.

What happened to the PSOne games? There haven’t been any in a LONG time!Wht do other countries get them but we haven’t seen a new one since Castlevania. I am sure you can tell which one in particular I want just from my username. I would have a picture too but I can’t figure out how to use the gravatar I made!

+ DarKaoZ on September 20th, 2007 at 10:25 am said:
Nice!
The only thing I hope is that you guys get DMC4 demo before the 360 does, that is really the only game I want to play first on my PS3 than in a 360. So Plz guys, try to get it before or at the same time as the 360, if it’s not so much to ask.

Wow, we actually get the LocoRoco game cheaper in Sweden? It’s only 25 SEK here, which is about $3.82.

Where is the fix that allows us to see PS3 games displayed in 1080 on HDTVs that only accept 1080?

Good stuff. Now make sure every playable demo at TGS get here too.

What the hell no 2K8. 360 got it already why do we keep being left behind. its too late for next thurs the full version will be out in like 4 days. This sucks.

+ fsan85 on September 20th, 2007 at 10:50 am said:
They come out with NBA 08, (which will be one of the worst sports game of all time), before 2K8. Thats ridiculous.

It’s always great to see “decent” news from bad… “As in yesterday bad” So, thanks, Sony… for what it’s worth I’ll be checking out the Skate demo and that’s about it.
Why don’t you give us some PS1 games next week? Silent hill 1 would be much appreciated… Doubt it’ll happen. I know… “Wait a litle longer” Gotcha!
Anyways, I’m still choking down the ashes from yesterdays abysmal Sony showing at TGS. No new games, no nothing… just a bunch of figures and delays… What a complete and total friggin’ disaster. Eightdays, Getaway anyone? Then you show Afrika as being a Pokemon snap game… lovely. When you’ve heard everyone complain for 2 years about how they wanna pick an animal to play as in an online community. Never will you learn.

Another great update keep up the great work! ….I still don’t see any new PS1 games up

@37
NBA and all of Sony’s in house sports games blow major sack. They should can the production team behind them and just spend that money on something decdent.. Like obtaining “REAL” exclusives and none of this timed garbage… HAZE, Unreal, Metal Gear solid 4… We need a reason to own a Ps3 over the much cheaper and much more capable “graphically” xbox 360, Sony. Not your junk ass sports line up.

4 demos, awesome!! PS store is kicking so much ass right now!

+ gamesblow on September 20th, 2007 at 10:58 am said:
What he’s talking about is 1080I only tv’s not accepting the games at 720P, so the buyer/consumer/person who keeps Sony in business, is actually paying for standard definition graphics on his new 600 hd gaming machine, Sony loved to tout so cleverly.
Sony is at fault here, yet they’re punishing the consumer who bought the 1080I hd tv. Smart move Sony!
43
+ gamesblow on September 20th, 2007 at 10:59 am said:
Also, yeah, I’m impressed with the update… but It’ll take us 4 days to download all of it, due to Sonys crippled and broken network. 3 people can download a demo at once without everyone else getting kicked back to pending. Thumbs up!

i should’ve taken bets which whiner of the unholy trinity would be first to jump in to this post and make some unrelated comment.
OT, glad to finally be able to check out skate and see how it compares against THPG (although i think i know the answer already…)

+ BFrosty on September 20th, 2007 at 11:08 am said:
Thanks for the great update guys~! Appreciate it.
I have a suggestion for an enhancement to the store. Please consider including, along with each update, the abiltiy to select, if a shopper wishes, “Download all new content”. Shoppers would then be able to initiate a download of all new content with one simple click, instead of initiating the downloads individually. This would come in handy IMO.
Stay Frosty~!

At the current currency exchange rates, the UK is getting this game for $4 and when using the Euro price, it comes out to $4.19.
Can someone explain why we have to pay nearly double for this game?

@Gamesblow
the PS3 does have and will have plenty of EXCLUSIVES.
why don’t you just sell you PS3(if you even have one)? You do nothing but bash Sony. If you hate them so much, just sell your PS3.
go get a 360 and then WAIT for all these timed-exclusives that the PS3 will get first.
