Hey Chris, Hows about asking Slant 6 for some news. Last time I checked that 1.5 patch should have been released by now. You DO know that most people are moving on to other franchises, myself included. But I would like something for my Favorite game.

As my last post was deep in a long thread, I’ll ask where it can be seen:
Chris(or Jeff), I was wondering if you could get any information on what GAP could be doing, or whether it will close, in the near future. Thanks!
P.S. Be on the lookout for Operation Flashpoint, looks to be a good game from the videos I’ve been seeing. IGN said it was looking great too.

Chrysus | July 18th, 2009 at 1:48 pm
I know a release date for Fat Princess will come when it’s ready & not before but can we please be informed on the rumoured delayed release? I’m proud to be a PS3 owner but we seem to forever be getting delayed games (MAG now rumoured to be among them with the chief culprit GT5) with little to no explanation. The SCE quality always shines through but treat us as valued customers & clue us in time to time.

thanks, chris and jeff
i read that there’s an expansion pack for savage moon coming out called Waldgeist DLC. any news on that, guys? it would be cool if they can patch custon-soundtrack into it.
if you like tower defense, savage moon is on sale at $4.99 untill the 23rd. it’s a frantic, fast-paced game unlike PJ Monsters.

@Jeff
We would like Turbo Graphx-16 games on the PSN like they are getting in Japan. Wouldn’t hurt to explore emulating games from other platforms while you’re at it. If the demand from your fanbase and the popularity of CFW on the PSP hasn’t convinced you, take a look at the success of your competitors “Virtual Console”.

ShadOforce | July 18th, 2009 at 3:33 pm
The Fat Princess interview announcement made my week as far as PS3-related things go.
I’m keeping my fingers crossed for a [hopefully early] August release date.

You know what game I am dying to see as a title on the PSN? (PSone Classic)
Breath of Fire III. That was a really nice game and it can’t be found easily anymore. Such a game deserves to be revitalized. I played this game several years ago. So far back, that I didn’t understand much more than the gameplay. Back when I was naive, and couldn’t quite understand what they would speak of.
I have been aching to touch up on the old games that I used to know and love, revisit and explore the storylines on a deeper level.
If this title were brought to the PSN, it’d be a must have for plenty who remember it, I’m sure. Though, if not, I still have my Final Fantasy VII. (Both Physical, and soon to be the downloadable one as well. =D ) XD

@Chris & Jeff (& to whom it may concern?)
Is there any way to tell what is taking Slant Six so long to get patch 1.50 out? They said it would be done at the end of May, and we’re in the middle of July.
I know it’s in the middle of QA testing, but come on. I’m not going to go off ranting about the shortcomings of the game, but the least they could do is give us an honest update.
Also, how about some info on the DLC? We’ve got one picture and a blanket statement of guns, levels, etc. They’re not coming out and saying 4 new maps and 2 old maps. Then, they could say Vigilance in the snow, and Fish hook or something like that.

Curious to know what was the logic behind putting Valkyria Chronicles 2 on PSP? Seems kind of dumb since a lot of people with a PS3 don’t have a PSP. What they should do is release it on both PSP and PS3 as a PSN game.
25
AngelMayLaugh | July 19th, 2009 at 4:56 am
@22 Well If people without a PS3 experience Valkyria Chronicles on PSP, maybe they will go and get a PS3 to play Valkyria Chronicles 1?
Thats actually what I’m going to do now.

Hey Chris,
Me and my son played the heck out of Marvel vs. Capcom back on the Dreamcast way back when and we were really excited to see the revamped demo @ the PSN store, do you have any idea when they will actually release the full game. Will it be on disc, or will it be a download I hope the latter. Just drop me a line if you get a chance thanx bro.
32
Berae | July 20th, 2009 at 3:19 pm
@31 Ghost1976
The game is suppose to be release mid august cant remember the date and it will be a PSN game, there was a rumour about being on disc with other things but anyway this will be the same game, hope it helps
33
straight_flushed | July 20th, 2009 at 4:28 pm
that response @4 was ill judged. i totally agree with @ 33. never thought a giant company like sony doesnt even train its employees in basic PR. Its common sense you dont respond like that. guess that just reflects how much sony really cares about socom/its consumers in general
34
SpaceGerbil1 | July 20th, 2009 at 4:30 pm
@33
I completely agree with your statement. It is a sad state of affairs when a customer notifies you that people are walking away in droves from one of your most popular franchises, and all you have to say is “Good To Know”? What is wrong with Sony?
35
SMoKeY_RuN | July 20th, 2009 at 4:30 pm
Sony doesn’t care about the SOCOM franchise or it’s fans? That’s ‘Good to know.’
36
DONNYxMC | July 20th, 2009 at 4:31 pm
someone save socom!!
release DLC!!!!
forget 1.50 we dont want it!!
37
harley7 | July 20th, 2009 at 4:35 pm
being nice to the socomers that are left might ensure successful sales of upcoming games, such as mag and socom 4. but i know sorny aint thinking about that.

Chris Morell replied on July 18, 2009 at 4:21 pm
Good to know.
“Good to know”? is that how Sony and Slant Six responds to a concerned customer? Why doesn’t Sony and Slant Six just come out and say “We don’t care about you people or this game.” What a bunch of unprofessional jokers.
39
mad_zooted | July 20th, 2009 at 4:38 pm
HELLO SONY! PLEASE GIVE US SOME INFO ABOUT SOCOM CONFRONTATION. WE GET NO USEFUL INFO ON THIS HORRIBLY BROKEN GAME.
WE HAVE BEEN SOLD AN UNFINISHED GAME, LIED TO, AND WE’VE BEEN THE RECIPIENTS OF AN EXTREME LACK OF PROFESSIONALISM.
STOP IGNORING THE PROBLEM AND DO THE RIGHT THING.

DONNYxMC | July 20th, 2009 at 4:39 pm
sony doesnt care about socomers ‘good to know’ we can now move on from denial to the next step.
at this rate sony wont last
41
Agent_Clutch | July 20th, 2009 at 4:41 pm
It’s obvious they stopped caring about SOCOM when they gave it PS2 budget. Good call on that one Seth and SONY along with anybody else in that board meeting. Imagine a Blu-Ray exclusive SOCOM with a single player and more then 7 maps to launch 12 minimal. Sounds like euphoria doesn’t it hahah
42
TOMBSTONE4U | July 20th, 2009 at 4:43 pm
Chris,why did you have to answer the question about the 1.5 patch for Socom like a [DELETED] with ears.Many of us Socomers went with PS 3 over an XBOX 360 because of Socom alone.We been treated like the red headed step child of Sony Supporters,then Sony wonders why we act the way we do.Cause its the only series that says no we are not making this for the fans we are changing it for the broader audience,thats why we are disgruntled.That ironically is why its been failing since S3.Losing alot of money by not keeping Socom gameplay the way it was in the first 2.

Yikes, I just came back to this post, and apparently it’s a firestorm. Many apologies for the short response…I wasn’t trying to be condescending (I was commenting from my phone, hence the short responses). We really do take your comments and suggestions to the right people/teams, so I can assure you that I’m on your side. While I can’t always give you the answer you’re looking for, I promise I’ll do my best to bring your questions to the right places.

“good to know”
You’ve got to be kidding me with that totally unprofessional response.
45
DONNYxMC | July 20th, 2009 at 4:47 pm
this is why they are in third place. to wii and 360. they dont care about there customers. socomers are the most loyal gamers you will ever find. and they are getting brushed off and treated like dogs.
‘good to know’
46
DONNYxMC | July 20th, 2009 at 4:50 pm
and to think i bought my ps3 just for socom confrontation.

THE-RICKY399 | July 20th, 2009 at 4:51 pm
Hey Chris, Did you mean it’s good to know that most people are moving on and you think they’re moving on to other franchises and purchasing more Sony products? Well, just to let you know,I’m also moving on to other franchises, but it won’t be Sony products after this fiasco. I could understand you treating your customers like this IF you had the market cornered (you don’t)and there was no competition(there is).
Chris Morell replied on July 20, 2009 at 5:37 pm
Whoa, that’s not what I meant. I meant, “good to know,” as in “thanks for calling it to attention,” so I can let the right people know. Sorry for the confusion.

doesnt SOCOM have more players online then KZ2 and resistence? Yea I think so. Good to kno that those games cant fuk with socom.

thepud | July 20th, 2009 at 5:10 pm
Let me get this straight….When someone asks a legit question about our Socom patch that been in Q&A for like 3 months, we get no response from a Sony rep? Instead the rep says “good to know” to the guy for wanting to move on to a another game. Pathetic, if it wasnt for Socom I would have never got a PS3… Slant6 gave us a incomplete game and now Sony has given us the finger. Thanks I made a mistake!
