Great timing. Due to work and my crappy DVR I wasn’t able to watch the conference. I will be sure to download it and the awesome trailers.

Thanks!

Is the Resistance Theme the same that came with the last episode of Qore? and a good dose of videos today

  The Resistance Theme for Qore is exclusive for Qore members.
  The theme posted today is brand new and features concept art of a devastated Chicago.

Hi Noel, when is the Canadian Video Store arriving? Like many other Canadians, I was extremely disappointed to find out that Sony didn’t include Canada for the “North American” release of the store. Anyway, an update on the situation would be highly appreciated.
- Noel Silvia
  July 16, 2008 at 9:37 pm PDT
  
  I don\’t have any information on the Video Store for Canada and other territories right now.
  I know that things are being worked on to bring the Video Store to other regions.
  Look for more information to appear here when they are ready to roll it out for y\’all.
  I\’m sorry I don\’t have anything more on it, but if I find out more, I\’ll have Jeff let you know!

Sony you did well at E3 to show mainly what the rest of the year games and functions we will be experiencing. Thank god you did not do waky stuff like the other two. I a coming to terms with FFXIII especially after seeing Valkyrie, and White Knight Story. Keep up the good work. LittleBigPlanet Rules!

Is the US video store down, because the tab to access it at least on my ps3 is now gone unlike how it was there last night
PasteyMF
July 16, 2008 at 9:36 pm PDT

I think WHAT is trying to stir up some trouble about WipeOutHD because there was no information about it from E3, which is troubling and left many disappointed. I think there’s a good majority of PSN users that would love to have any morsel of info they can about WipeOutHD.

One of the reasons I bought a PS3 late last year was the news of WipeoutHD on the PSN, which was promised by the end of the year, then in the spring. Here we are in the middle of summer.

Sony, anything you can toss at us? Maybe trophies have produced a minor delay, maybe online is being smoothed out, maybe bugs are being squashed or the the hud being redesigned… Frankly, anything about it would be nice to hear. :)

My Xam’d episode just expired with 50 minutes left to go in the episode :( What can’t you but those like all the rest!?!?!?! I wont re rent it to see 5 minutes!
Sorry just venting. (I accidently pressed play last night when I downloaded it and cancelled, but the timer started. boo) It should at least let you finish if playing the file if it is in use when the 24 hrs is up!

Nice update, but why is the press conference divided into 3 parts?

Please answear this question:

Why US store users outside of the US can’t acces the video store?.

Users living in countries that isn’t listed on the PSN (i live in México and have no other choice than selec US as my country) would like to have access to this feature.

Could you guys offer the anime episodes with Japanese VA and English subtitles?

I was disappointed to see that Xam’d was the only one.
Archmaester

@29 My guess is that they are saving it to release during TGS. In fact I believe more game news will be unveiled at GC and TGS.
stennex
July 16, 2008 at 9:43 pm PDT

If Sony makes the LBP theme have animated icons that would be awesome. I think in America we like animated stuff alot and thats why Nintendo interface always seems vibrant. don’t get me wrong i love the XMB but only videos seem to have some excitement to them with those short clips for each icons. just thinking that we could liven up the XMB a bit more but of course if Home beta were to come out this year then scarp what i just said.

P.S. alot of xbots are not happy with M$ changing the Blade to wii look alike avatars. lol.
Archmaester
July 16, 2008 at 9:45 pm PDT

@29 My prediction: UNCHARTED(or next naughty dog game) to be teased and WipEout HD release at GC in August and Team Ico and Kojima at TGS in October
Archmaester
July 16, 2008 at 9:48 pm PDT

@35 and the new interface just takes after the XMB’s functionality too. Just made it 3D so it isn’t obvious right away…

(still mad about Xam’d)

The Resistance 2 Theme is worth it alone, that game is going to be epic for the fans of Resistance.

I normally don’t blog this much but i am sure i read that Netflix also did a deal with Sony as well so i am hoping the interface is as cool as the video store. Maybe it will be in Home beta?

Where is Wipeout HD??? Sorry Sony, but after the weak pressconference I really expected something great on the store….but there isn´t anything worth downloading! This E3 really sucks.

Anyone else have major issues with the new Video download service? I bought a SD video rental this morning. An 80-minute movie took at least 100 minutes to download. Then, about halfway though, the video lags, gets out of sync, and then stops play. That was a horrible waste of a $4 rental. I’ve heard of other people having this problem too. Anyone actually get something to actually WORK? If I don’t hear of anyone actually having success, that’s the last time I’ll ever try that service again…

@40 mentioned it earlier. When I rented(only one you cant buy and costs more ??) I accidentally pressed play, but I was going to bed so I stopped it. But it started the timer anyway, and as I was watching it, the playbacl quit with 5 minutes to go because the rental expired…

That’s a great update but my only question is: When will we be able to play some of the demos? the trailers are great but like any other self-proclaim gamer that only wets the appeitte for more. And the movies section is wonderful in the PS Store, didn’t know Sony kept that one secret. All in all. it was a great addition to my PS experience and thousand of ideas popped in my head in reference to my external hard drive and movies and DLC (games).

I hope we get some more news on Fat Princess. Also, how demanding is putting up this content daily on the PSN?

I doubt that you guys will change the thursday only plan unless for special occasions, but it’s really awesome getting new content in the store repeatedly as the week goes on.

@44 Don’t sweat it. E3 is kinda dying off since there is no public crowd anymore. I really think Nintendo and Sony were doing there financial deal(cause it’s a business summit) and a few announcements, but are saving the big things for the next two conferences. see my post @34 & 36
