  • this was a poor PSN update but look xbox live too… doesn’t have anything wow.. except from movies and videos (that will help sony when they do that).

    At least PSN network is working just fine.. almost the whole mid december weeks doesn’t had xbox live working what suppose to do…

  • @ 100, are these the same people that get their demo’s, downloaded content, and in game x-talk first? Didnt think so!

  • @98 TeQuerra
    “PSN updates are seldom mind blowing”

    If PSN updates are seldom mind blowing, why does everyone make such a big deal out of each and every one of them.
    See, this is my point about lack of realistic perspective that many on here seem to lack – how is it even realistically possible for them to give everyone every thing week-after-week?
    Besides, releasing everything “whenever” rather than on Thursdays wouldn’t stop people complaining – it’d just open it up for them to complain 7 days a week instead of 1.

    Thank God my Rock Band downloads are almost done so I’ll stop frustrating myself with the whinery this place turns in to every Thursday. Don’t worry – I’ll call the “whaaaa-mbulance” for you on my way out…

  • I don’t think I’ll ever buy games like GH and RB. I don’t see myself paying $169 RB or $100 GH and every other week I have to spend and extra $20 buying music.
    .99c a song for RB is not bad but $2.49 per track with GH. These companies must think we are crazy.
    Maybe they should give the actual game out for free and just charge for the music. By the peripherals separately.

  • @103

    Are you kidding? Did you read these comments? People are upset BECAUSE the updates suck!

  • Another crappy update. I guess it’s a sign that this year will be just as bad as last year for the PS3.

  • Any chance the Freezepop and Bang Camaro songs that were just announced to be released on an OXM disc this month for Rock Band will ever find their way to the PS3?

  • @105
    Yeah, I read the comments.
    Why are people expecting the heavens to open and Jesus to personally deliver an advanced demo for Killzone 2 or MGS4 wrapped in bacon every single week?
    People are disappointed because they are expecting the unreasonable. Like I said before – if the Star Wars prequels or Matrix sequels taught us anything, it’s that unrealistically high expectations only end in disappointment.

    How about you? Have you read the comments? Have you read my comments? Read them. Then get back to me. Why don’t you write to Sony a detailed way for them to make everyone happy, in EXACT details. If you can’t because you DON’T know how the video game business runs like most of us, then STFU since you’re just whining without offering up a solution.
    Seriously, folks – get some perspective.
    Thank God my Rock Band songs just downloaded. I’m done with the nursery some of you have made this place.

  • Hmm nice updat. Thinking about getting rockband for the kids.

  • what t f is this. we didnt get any last week and we only get only get one. sony is really going down. xbox is releasing updates every week. playable demos of actual games that are coming out. we dont get s…… i think that i want an xbox. all my friends sold their ps3 and got an xbox and i am the only idiot that dont have one. other thing is that all the good ps3 demos are for japan only. why they dont keep the st… system for them self.

  • @robertjhz
    You stuck with your 360 during the holidays? These holidays? The one no one could get online? Yes this update sucked for those without RockBand, GuitarHero or cash for that matter but I don’t see you around when there are any good updates. Just another one of those guys that spends their entire day trying to convince gamers into buying a brick. And no I don’t own a 360, I’ve owned 4 in total, the one I got for last christmas (from family wihout asking for it) and the 3 replacements I got from MS, one RROD after another, without even using the thing constantly, I played Halo 2.5 and thats what it was, I played Gears (The third person Unreal Tournament knockoff) and Mass Effect (More fiction than Science) the only thing good about the game are the faces. After my fourth brick I gave it to my nephew for christmas and told my brother to send it in with luck he might have something to play with. Good thing is I convinced my brither into buying a PS3 for his son and him on summer (His birthday) So woohoo!

  • @ MichelBravo
    Your friends sold their PS3’s and bought Xbox’s… -_- I’m sure they did. (It seems your friends are the idiots) Don’t give into peer pressure my boy! First you sell your PS3, then you’ll end up getting a young women pregnant.

  • I’m hoping to get something from Final Fantasy, Men anything I buy a DS just for those games.

  • Great week for Rock Band—I know we didn’t get our content last week, but getting 8 new songs is pretty sweet, regardless of what they are.

    As for everything else, the week is a bit sparse. I just hope that the next coming weeks will have more content, like we were seeing before the break.

    Still, good job, Sony!

  • Wow! EA has a lot of balls (and nerve) for charging $2.50 for a bloody car!
    Don’t some of these come with the game as unlockables?

  • @Knave – LMFAO

    People, the PSN isn’t a catalog of PSONE games. You can find any game ever made on eBay, and as far as I know, PS3 has full PSONE bc. Enjoy.

    Thanks for the free stuff SONY.

  • The store layout still sucks.

  • Why is it half of the people on this blog do nothing but complain? You get all this for no monthly fees, and you expect it to be as big as XBL? I mean that gets one new thing per update thats it! We mean while get like 12-25 things per update. They only got as much as they got now because they have been up for so long. MS has had ample time to make XBL a great online expearince.

    Sony on the other hand has never had a online set up like this before. You all need to stop whineing and be happy. BTW Non of the content here for Need for Speed is even in the game. So don’t get mad at EA for it.

    Great update! I love all the DL content we get! Now get some of the PSP game addon content up there for us to DL of the PC Store! I wan’t full acsess to the Wipeout: Pure, and the Burnout Dominator content, as well as Monster Hunter1/2, and Killzone: Liberation content that was added.

  • lol @ all posters [DELETED] about this update. these people have lives too, probably were too busy enjoying christmas and new years and THEIR LIVES. chill out

  • That’s just the thing, I love my PS but it’s still not entered it’s time yet. Once its gets fully on its feet, it’ll be just fine, but now people need patience. Zen.

  • aww

    I was hoping for a good update as its been awhile since the las one

  • @Solace

    You talking about how “childlike” some of these comments are but yet reading your “LOL @ so n so” comment isnt very mature. Your comments are no different then the other retarded comments. You should take your own advice and STFU. Go rock out with your toy guitar while watching your Star Wars/Matrix movies, nerd.

  • @TeQuerra

    Pay no mind to Solace, he’s just another nerd that tries to be e-cool on the net. lol

  • @ 111. Too bad for you that your incapable of reading a full comment before you make one yourself. I believe that i said i own a ps3 as well. yeah, i already had the 3rrod twice, and yeah that is something that sucks, but well worth the wait. Hell, i didnt even turn on my ps3 when i was waiting because the online play sucks so bad. So, when it comes to game play on a system, i think i would rather get my demos and dlc a week before you. next time you wanna know how the new demos or dlc are, feel free to ask me or your brother how much fun they are untill you get yours 7 days later. Good luck playing campaign all the time, and not talking to friends during gameplay, because i think your almost all alone when it comes to loyal ps3 fans. Ever wonder why developers are straying away from scea only games? I bet you cant answer that truthfully!

  • Where Are the PSN Cards????

  • I don’t like complaining but this was seriously a terrible update!!!

    I’ve been waiting for the Super Stardust HD update for about 3 weeks now. Why don’t we (North America) have it yet? I e-mailed Housemarque about this a few weeks ago and they said it’s been done and they are just waiting for you (Sony) to put it up on the Store. Europe already has it. But why not us? I want to play this game with my imported DualShock 3!

    Here is the e-mail reply from Housemarque (SSHD developer):

    “Hi,
    All I know that work on our side is finished and it’s up to Sony to
    release it. For some reason we don’t know, the update wasn’t released
    yesterday. Actually, the update hasn’t been officially released at all
    not even in the UK, I think. It just has been possible to update it by
    deleting the older version and downloading a new one here in Europe.

    Thanks for the your interest in the first SSHD update. Look out for more
    DLC packages in the future!

    Cheers”

    Again, I wrote this e-mail a few weeks ago when the update popped up in the European PS Store. I received an e-mail that same day.

    Please let us know when we’ll get the update for that beautiful game, Super Stardust HD. I’ve been waiting several weeks just to play it! By the way, I haven’t purchased the game yet. As soon as the update is released, I will buy it. I fell in love with this game when one of my friends shared it with me. I no longer have access to the shared games but SSHD is a must buy.

  • I dont understand you Sony.
    Somes Psn game dont have demos.
    Do you expect peoples to buy psn games without demos ?
    Think about it you must loose a tons of sales…
    My 2 cents

  • I know this is the wrong topic to say this but id like to see some call of duty 4 updates for multiplayer now im sure the makers half to make that [DELETED] but it sure would be a great update if activision could add some better multiplayer levels that could be downloaded from the psn store

  • no offense but the update doesn’t give you much. why does it take the game to come first, that the demo comes out too late because u bought the game and it SUCKED! (~blacksite~)

    come on guys we need demos

  • I don’t expect anything for free. PSN is useless to me other than buying games. It is useless for Sony to provide a free service—and the truth is we pay for it in some fashion. All I ask is Intelligent Qube to be released on the PSN for PS3 play (PSP play doesn’t really matter for me). Sony has to only bother themselves to release it; it is their game. They released it in Japan last week. I paid quite a bit for this glorified blu-ray player that streams media from my PC and occasionally provides me demos to save me from wasting money on retail games; admittedly, I’d like to use it to play games. I look forward to Burnout Paradise for it might be the first retail game I buy for the PS3 since I bought it last February. All I ask from Sony is a digital release of a PSOne game that is ridiculously expensive on the used market and, if I were to puchase it overpriced on eBay or half.com, will not financially help Sony one bit. So, why not mind your business about complaining against those that voice their opinion? Silencing dissent profits no one. It’s bad enough all these Europeans have to post here, but to add to the comment count by telling others to shut up (ironically one of whom is European) doesn’t accomplish anything. At least here, unlike LiveJournals or MySpaces or to their pets, people’s frustrations are vented to where it might eventually matter.

  • some of you need to escape from the negative….any company that has been as successful as sony knows what they are doing. sure they can throw all kinds of things on the psn store but what do you want quality or quantity….there is at the present moment plenty of games on retail and at the psn store to keep us enjoying the ps3 gaming….relax good stuff is here now and there be will be more than enough to satisfy our limited budget,,,,,tonights menu for me…a game of texas hold em…everyday shooter…call of duty 4…wow this ps3 gamer has a satisfied mind…goodnight and good gamin3g

  • Hey Sony,
    Hope you guys had a great vacation, thank you for the update. I happen to agree with Solace in that people have to realize this is a free service, any kind of free stuff is great. I also see people squawking about how this update is oh so terrible. Well, I don’t know about you guys, but I remember back around in June that all we got for an update was a trailer for Nancy Drew. This update is way beyond that.
    And to post #56 who copied and pasted a blog from 1up. Please…. Garnet Lee is a fanboy for the other system. If you ever listen to one of the 1up Yours podcasts you can pretty much figure it out. It was really sad to hear Garnet talking and not understanding the concept of Home on the December 21 podcast because he’s so pro about paying a gold membership for the other guys. Heck, I thought Shane was going to sucker punch him. Anyhow, nothing rant. Keep up the good work Sony.

  • Sony you should ban EA content from being on the PSN. Its over priced stuff you already own. Sure its your choice to buy it, but EA is a [DELETED] less company.

  • I am actually really disappointed with this update. I think this is the first update I haven’t liked too. Hope you’re not slipping…

    You guys really need to get on the ball with the PS1 games. Why should Japan get so many? And we get mere leftovers. The only decent one you have given us is Castlevania; Symphony of the Night.

  • The fact that so many people are asking for a complete and readily available (elsewhere) SSHD has me wondering what SONY is doing in that big corporate building while they ignore their customers, the base of their very existance.

  • I typically don’t leave comments but I felt compelled to post a suggestion.

    Is it possible to release PSP games for download on the PS3? I’d love to play Crisis Core (Yes, I am fully aware that this is SE’s IP, I’m just using this as a personal example), but I don’t have a PSP. I would, however, pay to download the game to play on PS3. There are PS1 games playable on PSP/PS3, so is it feasible to do PSP games to download and play on PSP/PS3?

    Why is everybody whining about no content? Employees need a break sometime. One week is not bad at all. If they took their vacation any other time you wouldn’t care. But they want to spend time with their families during the holiday and you berate them. Were you doing anything different? How productive were you? I bet you just sat home and watched football, and maybe did some last minute shopping. I want to see you having spent your time creating stuff that people download on a free service and then have the nerve to complain about it.

  • Wow,alot of GH3 and Rock Band songs.Can’t wait to play the NFL Tour demo

  • Again, why are the Guitar Hero III songs not downloadable from the Australian Playstation store?

  • SONY ARE YOU GONNA RELEASE PSN CARDS SOON????

    OR DO WE HAVE TO WAIT TILL GDC????

  • “Spring 2008” is not a sufficient date announcement for the US version of GT5 Prologue. Especially, when Japan has been playing it for a few weeks now. Does it REALLY have to take MONTHS to translate Japanese to English?

  • very weak PSN update…hope we get some COD4 maps

  • we need some Dream Theater song on Rck Band. i think the Constant motion The Dark Eternal night and As i Am would be perfect for a 3-pack

  • In the future will the PC Store be updated every Thursday? i just got a PsP, i have beats and i want to get another SD stick for games but there are only 2 games to download,

  • Where the f*** is patch for cod4 (EU)!?

    Where the f*** is patch for cod4 (EU)!?

    Where the f*** is patch for cod4 (EU)!?

  • nice update, but and the playstation store for PC????????!!!!!!!

  • @Grace
    I have only one question. Why is the amount of games and add-on content are $2.99, $9.99 , $2.49 and so forth? Why cant they be just a even $3.00, $10.00 and $2.50 period. I think that would be the smarter thing to do especially when we as consumers add funds to our wallets and the amounts are $5, $10, $20 and so forth. Thanks.

  • sony needs to release better stuff on the psn store this is a bad update nothing good in it at all the demo was horrible no themes wallpapers or anything only a couple of videos then thiers a bunch of gh3 and rock band songs witch is good in all but i cant download them since they wont release playstation cards and the gh3 songs are stupid no name ones what i would like to see is a cod4 update with new multiplayer levels weapons and some customization to your character sorta like the rainbow 6 online character customization

  • Thanks for updating the Gold Mine and Money Pit that are Guitar Hero and Rock Band. Thankfully I own neither, and will not be hoodwinked into paying for a car that can be unlocked by playing a game.

    How about you do something different for a change this week and actually ANSWER the posts people make instead of sitting on your pedestal up there?

    WE WANT GT5 PROLOGUE or at least an announcement from you all when/if we’re getting it in North America! You advertise it to sell systems, but won’t give it to us; That’s called false advertising!

    I guess I’ll just stop patronizing the store until you all decide to start listening to us.

    Bye!

    I’ve actually been wondering this as well. I think it was someone who worked on Warhawk even posted on here one time sarcastically asking if one cent made a difference.
