  • Instead of a home theme, you should have made an in-shirt-XMB theme, lol.

  • Hi all ;)

    I had a question in one of the former posts, but perhaps it was not read ;), hope to get some info about ;)

    Question 1:
    If i purchase 1 year qore subscribtion can i download all the old qore episodes? Or only all released episodes from my subscribtion date on to the future?

    Question 2:
    Why sony can not put the american version of qore to the european stores? we don’t need translations. a lot of games have only english as gamelanguage, why not qore too?

    Question 3:
    Will the Home Theme only track the activity of the account from where it was downloaded (only american acc) or can i download(and use) it with my european acc and get tracked aswell?

  • I have to just come out and say it. This week updates SUCK. I paid $24 for Qore annual package and the store keeps teasing me with just its logo. Why is it not available to download. And what’s with all these trailers.

    P.S. What is going on with Home beta. It is still bugging out on a lot of us.

  • “Well I know what I’m downloading First”

    LMAOO that actually made me laugh. :)

  • To download Qore you need to go to purchased items and then scroll down to Qore august episode and click download.

  • maor polls! and fix the PSN video “new releases” category it isn’t even remotely updated properly

  • When do we get more info on Fat Princess and Crash Commando?

  • i wish we had competant people running opur store in europe.
    unfortunatly we’re stuck with scee.
    must be nice when the company you buy stuff from thinks you’re actually an important part of their business.
    unfortunatly we’re stuck with scee who see their customers like something they just stepped in.
    and it must be nice to get content when it’s ready.
    unfortunatly we have scee who sit on content for months thereby forgoing potential profit until the game is so old people no longer care about it and they arent interested in the dlc any more therefore sony lose money on it.

    is there a point to this?
    yes
    SHUT DOWN SCEE AND GET US SOMEBODY COMPETANT
    that clear enough.
    and do it before that halfwit reeves kills the playstation brand in europe.

  • i bought the first Qore ep.then i bought the annual will i still get the thirteen ep for $25 or will i only get 12

  • Is there an RSS feed for new additions to the Video Store available?

  • I Think It would be lovely for some of us in Europe get Access to some of this content, not just Video Store, but home beta too. There are as many Europena Online Player, as in america, so why not Beta here? I feel repressed.

  • That “The Last Guy” video is WTF funny. To the point I’m not sure if it was a real setup or a really really good gag.

  • Ermm… where’s the 1942 demo? *huh* Too bad no classics either, though US store looks “again” so much better than the EU store. I wish I lived in the US, so I could download all those movies like you guys do *sob*.

  • What about a Little Big Solid 4: Guns of the Sackboys wallpaper? You know, something like this: http://bp1.blogger.com/_hEV_btJZPVs/SDTVh9ckwII/AAAAAAAAAB8/QMRbIVa6GkY/s1600-h/solidsnakeplanet.jpg

    :P

  • Who keeps giveing this a low score? This update has a crap load of download content, and new demos, as well as a killer new official app for the PSP why would you give it a low score for that? As well as the fact that if you download the HOME theme you get entered into the HOME beta how could you not rate this at 5 stars?

    I guss some retro fanboys keep scoreing low because they did not get any new PSone games this time around. I hate to say it guys but Sony has said many times they are working on getting mor PSone games on PSN for the US market, it takes a while they have to contact the companies that made them and ask them for their software code so they can ensure it will work on the PS3. That takes time more time then one might think.

    As for the update this is nice! I’m going to use the HOME theme for a while! It rocks! BTW any chance we could get a black theme? You know like the color set for the PSP only with a black option as well? I like blue and all but black was so much easyer to read at night, and during the day. Plus it’s on all the PS3 display models in stores still, and it kinda sucks that the PS3 when updated dose not have a black theme any more.

  • Not me, to be honest I never rate blogs… let me do that right now “5” scores you’re getting Grace ;-)

  • Will we ever get a Killzone2 demo? also, will the PSN store ever make updates not weekly and more spaced out throughout the week, such as the XBL store? thankyou

  • does Sony expect me to pay for QORE and not be able to get into the BETA.SERIOUSLY!

  • Not bad, but we really need more ps1 games!

  • Thanks for the HOME NEWS!!!!!!

    Finally – I feel I have been waiting so long that I am not excited…does that make sense?

    Anyway, I am still happy about it! ;)

  • So Susan Panico’s article on Qore #3 has been corrected, but the damage had been done. What about those of us mislead by the incorrect statement she made? I know the policy is no refunds on store items, but in this case, I was promised content that I did not recieve. I’d like my $3 back.

    “IF YOU PURCHASE QORE EPISODE 3, or an annual subscription, you are in for a real treat – with PREMIER ACCESS to the Resistance 2 Public Beta. In addition, we’ve got an all-new PS3 Qore theme and will also get Calling All Cars, the full game, for free!”

  • i can’t wait to download all this stuff… thanks playstation for everything :D

  • Compare that with the EU update

  • this update was really good with the 3rd episode of qore and the chance to be a part of the home beta but we need some more street fighter stuff

  • Why do 3 $0.99 songs cost $0.02 more when they are bought together in a pack? Shouldn’t the pack cost less then the price of the three songs purchased individually… or at least the same.

  • will everyone who buys qore get to play the beta for resistance 2?

  • Sweet update.
    When is Ratchet and Clank Quest 4 Booty coming out?

  • I bought qore ep3 (single) on my sub-account. will I still be able to get in the beta through my sub-account?

  • Qore annual subscription needs to be fixed or redesigned. I had to access my download account to get this months episode. We should be allowed to easily access the monthly episodes through the PSN Store. Maybe Sony is playing tuff since this episode consists of R2 Beta access. Sony needs to probably give us annual subscribers a Qore icon that will allow us to download or it downloads the episodes for us or do like what Gt5pro did for their so called GTtv.

  • I wish I could spend more time on PSN but I am trying to get into Harvard and am spending hours and hours preparing my app and studying for SAT, PSAT, and ACT……

  • please help me…

    I want to buy lots of things from the PS store but I’m form the Philippines which is not supported.

    How can I buy from the PS store?

    Any method other than entropay?

  • I’m in S. Korea for military reasons. Why can’t I watch movies or TV shows?

  • Looks good.

  • Why can’t I download the Resistance 2 Beta? I have an annual subscription. I’ve tried for the last two days and I still can’t get it!

  • for the people who download the theme home whens the day they get selected to be in the beta ???
