PlayStation Around the Web: What We Read

Posted by Jeff Rubenstein // Social Media Manager

Judging by the reviews and near-final previews rolling in, the holiday gaming rush is nearly upon us. I mean, I’m glad football season is kicking off today, but I’ve got games to play, people!

BTW, keep an eye out this week, I’ll be hitting up you readers for questions to ask at TGS soon. Start thinking…
Oh, and share your links in the comments section, if you like.

Anything GT5 related, Jeff. How about showing those Forza kids what a real racer is like.

is there anywhere in Canada that you can pre order uncharted 2 and get the golden weapons?

drownedphoniex  |  September 13th, 2009 at 12:18 pm

Can’t wait for the Uncharted 2 demo on Thursday! And Jeff, does the Fat Princess DLC hint at Mother 3 coming to the PS3? Nah, I kid.

That 40 best ps2 games was a joke. I would have just a few of those games. To each his own I guess.

superstewie  |  September 13th, 2009 at 1:07 pm

also everyone seems to forget Alpha Protocol next month ;)
it’s also coming to the PS3! it’s a bit like a secret agent mass effect on earth (by the same developers of Knights Of The Old Republic 2!)

Jeff Rubenstein replied on September 13, 2009 at 3:19 pm

You’re right about that. I think SEGA might drop by to talk to you all about it.

Cagalli  |  September 13th, 2009 at 1:07 pm

Will America be getting a FFXIII bundle like Japan is? I’m sure it’d do just as well as the MGS4 one did.

Will qore subscribers be able to use the MAG beta codes when they are sent next week or do we have to wait until october 6th.. or whatever that date was?

the1pliskinUSA  |  September 13th, 2009 at 1:27 pm

My first post and just let me say thanks for the work and support. Great articles too!
Just one question, today I have bought the Qore Annual Subscription. When should I hope for the MAG Beta Code? And how long will it last?

Very appreciate your work, it is indeed very good! :)

Jeff Rubenstein replied on September 13, 2009 at 3:21 pm

You should hope for the beta code this week.

16

Jon_Mclane  |  September 13th, 2009 at 1:36 pm

The exclusion of any shin megami tensei game makes that top 40 list fail. btw jeff, have you spamed atlus’ mailbox about info for persona 3 portable?

Jeff Rubenstein's Avatar

Jeff Rubenstein replied on September 13, 2009 at 3:21 pm

It’s a bit soon. In the meantime, make their decision to bring it here easy by buying Persona PSP, out on Tuesday.

I agree with the first comment I would love to know if Tales of Vesperia is coming to NA for ps3 or if I should just settle for the 360 version.

BILLYGOLDEN78  |  September 13th, 2009 at 3:35 pm

How come the millions of links complaining about Uncharted freezing up after the 3.0 update are not included???
When will we finally be able to play this game???

-From a first time PS3 owner who is disappointed by Sony’s lack of response to a faulty update

Kchow23  |  September 13th, 2009 at 3:37 pm

Hey Jeff, Do the Digital Copy Vouchers that come with certain movies such as The Dark Knight or Watchmen work with MediaGo, PSN or even the PSP Go?

Jeff Rubenstein replied on September 13, 2009 at 10:15 pm

hmm, I think that’s on a case by case basis. Check the details on the movie that you buy.

Any news on Tales of Vesperia for PS3 coming out in English? Game seems like the most sought after thing on PS3 right now TBH…

Hoping for a (highly unlikely) holiday release!

Hey I hear you, but it’s a Namco Bandai title. Look to them for any announcements.

Ausohoj  |  September 13th, 2009 at 4:36 pm

HOLD ON A MINUTE!!! Is there any reason that in the destructoid article they said that inFAMOUS is going to be at TGS 2009? Didn’t That (amazing) game release in may? or was that a time warp and it shouldn’t have been released untill may 2010? Or is is some new kind of DLC? Could i get an answer please?

It’s not out in Japan yet!

When are we gonna find out more about the UMD exchange program? I want to get rid of all my UMDs in favor of the DD version.

35

Nick-30  |  September 13th, 2009 at 4:48 pm

Hey Jeff,

Is there any way you could ask the devolpement team if they could do an update for the ps3 so you can delete trohy games in `my trophies`that you have 0% in.

Also to delete trophy games that you have some trophies in that way if you can`t get 100% in it and your a completionist.

Thanks a lot.

Senju_Karim  |  September 13th, 2009 at 4:51 pm

Hey Jeff, anyway we could get SE to come on the blog to discuss their upcoming games, plans for PS home etc. I was also wondering about the FF LBP content that was shown along with the MGS content. FFXIII is one of my most anticipated games. Initially I was annoyed at the RPG situation on PS3 being a PS support since PS1 (The RPG golden era!!!)
Though looking back I’m glad now. The lack of RPGs initially allowed me to experience games like Uncharted, Resistance and Killzone that I would have never tried before. Uncharted was my first PS3 game and favourite new franchise for this generation! Can’t wait for Uncharted 2 GOTY

Jeff Rubenstein's Avatar

Jeff Rubenstein replied on September 13, 2009 at 10:19 pm

I’m trying to set up interviews with SE at TGS for you all. As you may know, they had a seperate event in Japan last week where they made announcements like the date.

I know the game will be playable at TGS, so I’ll be all over that.

ShadOforce  |  September 13th, 2009 at 4:57 pm

Isn’t there suppose to be more info on The Last Guardian this month? If not, later this fall?

@32

Wanting to erase the fact that you DIDN’T get 100% doesn’t make you a completionist…it makes you anal.

A completionist would FINISH the darn game.

NEJI64  |  September 13th, 2009 at 5:50 pm

@30 you have to take note its at the TOKYOGAMES SHOW because inFAMOUS didn’t come out in Japan yet. like how White Knight Chronicle was at E3 cause it didn’t come in N.A.

Mobius_124  |  September 13th, 2009 at 6:24 pm

Hey Jeff, can you give us on update on allowing PSP owners transfer their UMD’s To Digital content for the PSP go.

I have a PSP-1000 which broke recently :( and I already pre-ordered a PSP Go at Gamestop. and I really want to keep my games.
