  • Where is Zenonia?

  • The descriptions for the Playstation Home Advanced and Expert packs are quite vague…what items do those come with, exactly?

    I don’t see myself purchasing a Home pack if I’m not aware of its contents first…

  • Nice, we’re already getting Rapstar DLC. I might also pick up Alien Breed with my Plus discount. Cool update.

  • I want FIFA 11 for my PSP Go. I mean it is rediculous the the UMD’s come out on release day and a week later it’s still not in the store! Come on Sony, get me my FIFA!

  • Where is the update to get compatibulity to Playstation Move in Heavy Velocity Bowling for non plus members???

  • No Halloween (or fall) theme for the store? Do you guys not like Halloween? How can you not like Halloween?

    Should consider a Halloween theme like the Japanese store.

    :P

  • Where is the update to get compatibility to Playstation Move in Heavy Velocity Bowling for non plus members???

  • Hey… it’s Haskell! I could tell by the length of the comment :p

    No mention of the lack of PAIN-age? For shame. Then again there are worse places to complain about it. Don’t mind me, just feeling a tad picky.

  • I don’t mean to complain, but no nba 2k11 for my psp go and no betas for a guy who is a plus and qore subscriber from day one.

  • Great Update, Alot of Content

  • @42 (Haskell420)

    I found all three on the PS+ section:
    Bubble Trubble (Free to PlayStation Plus Subscribers)
    Wakeboarding HD Dynamic Theme (Free to PlayStation Plus Subscribers)
    Heavy Rain Origami Dog Avatar (Free to PlayStation Plus Subscribers)

    Maybe leave the store and re-enter?

  • Excuse me… Wheres the Flo modnation DLC!!! Seriously!

  • @mepting I know, I can’t believe they don’t have Fifa 11 yet!!! I asked EA and they said it’s gonna be available this week! The Europe PSN had it since last Friday!!!! I mean seriously, Sony doesn’t care about us

  • Ok were are the full free downloadable games not just some stupid puzzle games ala criiter crunch and mushroom wars wich are both puzzle game I want my money back this ps+ service is a rip off not only you guys when from every week update to a by week but also too are not giving us what was promise at e3 I’m deff not going to sign up next year…

  • @Blkant
    They’ll have one, just give ’em a week or so. 2009/2008 (possibly 2006 as well though my memory isn’t that good) had a Halloween section and deals. You can bet Siren: Blood Curse will be on sale for $29.99 as it had been the past two halloweens. And wishful thinking, but hopefully Deathspank will also get a sale during that period as well.

  • where is nba 2k11 and fifa 11 for psp go! please we buy the psp go to have digital downolads but the umds came in the release date please sony! put those 2 games

  • This is actually a very boring update… I usually like every PS Store Update… But not this one :(

  • i like the update
    but can someone from the blog over there respond to the AC:B beta? i mean there was a post earlier bout it being Plus members but it never said it would be selected or what. I think Beta was one of the key reason people bought +, and not knowing it would be selected members only. Also can you guys please explain whats in the PS Home pack? i mean it says expert and advance but that is pretty much it, no content
    like am i getting everything from HOME?
    One thing?
    Two things?

  • @megamixer

    he meant a theme to the store, Japan has a new layout design for Halloween

  • I am NOT BUYING scott pilgrim till it goes on sale…hopefully 50% off with a price of $5

  • Why have I not recieved a beta key for Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood yet? It says on the blog post “This Beta is exclusive to PlayStation 3 and available to PlayStation Plus members, as well as those who pre-ordered from participating retailers.” It never says Select Plus members. Why are you guys so misleading when it comes to PS+? I signed up mainly for betas but I haven’t got a single one. You never said betas would only be for select members. I’m starting to regret paying $50 more every week.

  • Not much for me in this weeks update. A few pretty interesting demos. It’s all good though, Im backlogged as it is in my gaming. Im almost glad it wasn’t a loaded update this week. Im really digging all the MEGA MAN avatars that have been getting put up.

    One question though… If I get the TETRIS mini will I be able to play it on my PS3 or only on a PSP (which I don’t have)

  • the dvd comes out in november with the knives dlc too :)

  • No AC:BH Beta? And how about we get imported PSP and PS3 games?

  • Nice update. One question though. When are we gonna see square-enix and konami character avatars? (e.g. Solid snake or Tidus avatar)

  • any news on echochrome ii?

  • @Anti Steven…. Ahhh didn’t know that

  • Where is this AC Brotherhood Beta? We better get it!

  • OH WHATS THE USE WERE NEVER GETTING BLACKLIGHT TANGO DOWN :(

  • Wow. I’d laugh at how bad the PS+ update is, but then I realized you guys suckered me into paying for it.

    Not even a full game trial even though one was promised each month.

    “Full Game Trial: Each month we will be offering members the chance to download full games and try them out for a period of time (one hour, unless otherwise stated).”

    I guess that whole “each month” thing doesn’t mean much to Sony. What is this? Like the third or fourth type of content you promised on a monthly basis that you’ve decided didn’t need to be honored now that you have our money?

    But at least I get that terrible dog avatar and a dynamic theme for a third rate game nobody bought. We all know what hot items those are.

    And my email inbox is empty. No beta code for the Assassin’s Creed beta you’ve been hyping up. And judging by the comments on that post today, not many people got one anyway.

  • And what makes it worse is that EVERY SINGLE PS+ subscriber in Europe got the beta! Why are US Plus members being screwed over every week?

  • Again bad update for the psp seriously when are real good games going to be on the psn? there are countless games still not on the psn and you guys are neglecting this why?

  • Can you please add some European games to the PlayStation import category? I’d love to see “Vib Ribbon” released on the service (from the creator of “PaRappa the Rapper”). That game was released in Europe so it already has an English version.

  • Why don’t we get avatars from different franchises? I know I’m not the only one tired of the same three games getting three new avatars every week. Where’s Jax? Ratchet? Clank? Kratos? Snake? inFAMOUS? MotorStorm? Killzone? not to mention all those PSN titles. It’s not that complicated to make a 100×100 PNG file lol

  • WTF!!! i start downloading Wakeboarding HD Dynamic Theme n my PS3 slow down for really u how long it took 2 shut down it didnt i took the power cord off n when turn on it was still slow it was loading everything so i took the power cord off again

  • FIFA11 has been out a week. It’s a NEW release. There is no excuse for not having this ga
    me and NBA 2K11 in the store. Unbelievable!

  • The Wakeboard dynamic theme is free in the EU Store for everyone for non-Plus members that might want it.

  • for the record, this is also the second straight week that a psn demo was to be pushed to + subscribers (alien breed) and lo and behold, no dice! that, combined with the AC: brotherhood beta debacle, and i am about done with +.

  • whats this online pass for moh? is it for people who buy it used or is this ea trying to squeeze more money out of people

  • Tetris was finally discounted permanently, good to see. Pretty decent choice for the PS1 game this week too, might have to nab Rayman later in this week for another play through.

    That aside, seems like nothing interesting this week released for PSP owners outside of more obscure Japanese PS1 titles.

  • What happened to Netflix Streaming? :/

  • I want my AC:BH Beta Key. I’m a PS+ member from day one and still haven’t been invited for ANY beta.

  • Sony stop making it so difficult to be a fanboy for you guys!!!!

  • WHERE IS FIFA 11??? Come on Sony, the whole world has it already, even the European PSN store! There is no excuse for this now!

  • I picked up deadliest warrior

  • Can I please play Ridge Racer 7 in 3D?

  • As others had said – the demo for Castlevania should have been out before the game gets released. Not to mention, it would have been nice to see some trailers, wallpapers, avatars, etc., for this game as well in an effort to promote it.

    Price drop on Tetris – can’t go wrong with that. Although I wish I didnt buy the game two weeks ago. Oh well.

    Oh – is there anyway to find out what exactley is included in the PS Home Advanced and Expert packs. It’s great to know that there is 50 items – my question is which 50 items specifically?

  • Wow with every passing week PS+ just gets worse. My main reason for purchasing this was so I could get the PS Move High Velocity Bowling add on. Never again will I be an early adopter of Sony, after allready having the PS3 Camera and then missing out on the bargain Move bundle and now week after week of disappointing PS+ releases. Its times like this that you wish you had an xbox – atleast you know microsoft suck and never feel let down.

  • My advice to plus members who feel upset is to stop buying anything from the PSN. Complaints mean very little to a company like Sony unless it actually affects their business. If you keep on buying things from them, they won’t ever care what you have to say. It really might end up being Ubisoft’s fault, their the ones who set how many people get into the beta. Or maybe this is a matter of how they are spending the available funds for plus members. US and EU benefits are very different. If that is the case. then EU clearly has a better idea of what consumers want.

  • The Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood problem will never be addressed. Most likely Ubisoft felt they had enough testers with the UK audience and didn’t want the servers going down in 10 seconds. So they told Sony “Screw the US PSN+ users, if they really wanted it they would of requested more invites”

    Funny thing is I renewed my PSN+ subscription just 3 days ago in order to play the beta…
