  • awesome.

  • I was looking at prototype in wal-mart 2 days ago but thought I’d wait to see the psn price – I’m going back to wal-mart

    for that $30 on psn I can get prototype and a used copy of fallout 3 at ebgames .
    why are old games so much on psn ? they still ask $30 for socom and gt5 on psn and $49 for nfl head coach when it’s $10 in the bargain bin .

  • LBP with Move? That is so bought.

  • So is the avatar bundle next week then? Been waiting for some new avatars at it has been quite awhile since we got one. Also you guys should talk with Naughty Dog and see if they will bring us the new Drake avatar to Plus users!

  • great update and some awesome demos next week. im happy

  • Wow, you know I came very close to getting playstation plus when it very first came out, but I thought it was a little disappointing, and I figured I’d wait for it to be worth it. Well, still waiting. What a complete disappointment that turned out to be. Nice to see X-men arcade get emulated. Oh wait, it was emulated by Nicola Salmoria about a decade ago. Why not emulate something worthwhile, like I dunno, your entire massive ps2 library.

    cut some of the funds for embarrassing garbage like those horrid racist Marcus PSP advertisements that nearly break my eardrums or PS Home for god sakes. Two easy to remove, cost effective solutions to get some developers worth a dime and get some progress done. I hate to break it to you, but Microsoft is really kicking you in the teeth in the advanced console development market. I’ve seen more interesting visuals in their GUI than I’ve seen in your entire OS.

  • We need less random silly import PSOne games. Seriously, get Vagrant Story and other games that are in English first, please. Vagrant Story was released in Europe a year ago, and before that in japan as well, why do we not have it?

  • Still getting the Sam & Max download error. If DCOU wasn’t so AWESOME, I would be far crankier :)

    As it is, I just want it eventually, as it’s free. So let’s get a fix out please.

  • Hey I hate to sound greedy, I love all the stuff we got as PS + users now but …. …

    I’d really like a Christmas dynamic theme~ <3 I'm still using the Halloween one right now because it's awesome.

    I mean I guess you don't have to but it'd be cool and I'd be your best friend and some junk!

  • Can we please get the 3D patch for Ridge Racer 7 that Japan and Europe got? Please talk to NAMCO and find out when they are going to release the 3D patch here in the US! Otherwise I will need to purchase a European copy of the game to get my game in 3D… :(

  • No demos 2 weeks in a row for the PS3? Isn’t this Dec, aka X-Mas time to buy gifts & try new games out to buy soon. PFFT!

  • There is A problem on The new Update
    When i Sign in He Said There is a New Update
    & When i Want to Update My Ps He Says That Im Already Download The update

  • With the recent release of the X-Men Arcade game, I’d also like to see these Arcade games released to the PSN with trophies.

    – The Simpson’s Arcade
    – Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle’s Arcade
    – Jurassic Park (with Move Support)

    If somebody with influence is reading this, please make it happen & have them add Virtual Arcade Cabinets that appear in Playstation Home when you buy them that represent the old classic Arcades, that will up the Nostalgia factor.

    I am also hoping this games will go on sale soon (Hopefully 50% off)

    – Scott Pilgrim
    – Castle Crashers
    – Shank

    Thanks in Advance

  • Er, Sony, if you develop a system (PSP Go) you could actually make it worth it :P I’m starting to regret getting a Go seeing as you NEVER give a decent update for the PSP store…

  • I was going to say that I’m getting the error 80023102 when trying to download Sam and Max, but since you guys are aware and working for a solution, I won’t say anything. :)

    I’ll say this though: Finally an update for PS Plus of something that I really didn’t have. And the Beta for DCU is a great advantage. Looks like we’re finally getting something for our loyalty and our money spent on PS Plus.

    But I can’t play DC Universe right now… when it comes to “World Selection”, there is nothing to select. Anyone knows anything about this?

    Thanks everyone.

  • Guh, why did I even buy a PSP. It’s December and we get nothing, again. Back to the DS I guess.

  • Should we expect the original Tekken, Tekken 1 on PsOne Classics, this year?

  • great Santa’s Sexy Helpers ;D

  • ahh yes! Over 12hrs after “We’re aware of some PlayStation Plus users getting error 80023102 when downloading Sam & Max: The Devil’s Playhouse (Episodes 1-5) and will provide a solution shortly.” I still receive the error! Stop slacking!!

  • @261 Mr-Wolf11  Are you using the dns bypass ? most likely that is why you can’t update . change ur network settings back to normal.

  • 269

    it’s not slacking its called the day was over deal with it.

  • i can see why your giving sam and max away to plus members
    the game blows

  • Happy about Sam & Max and DCUO

    Very disappointed about the Field Runners repeat. Why is this being repeated? It’s not even a great piece of software to begin with (so slow!), there’s no reason to use that multiple times as a PS+ reward.

  • Where was the QA department when Sam & Max was updated on the PSN Store for PS+ subscribers?

    Could we get an ETA on a fix? Even if it’s a terribly inaccurate one.

  • Still getting an error on Sam & Max. Any word when this will be fixed?

  • I picked up a hard copy of Prototype from a Target clearance rack for $7.50. Don’t think I’ll be paying $29.99 for a digital copy thank you very much.

  • [b]”I was looking at prototype in wal-mart 2 days ago but thought I’d wait to see the psn price – I’m going back to wal-mart

    for that $30 on psn I can get prototype and a used copy of fallout 3 at ebgames .

    This is exactly why digital distribution is a complete ripoff and is exactly why all the game companys can’t wait for it to be implemented. It elminates any and all competition between stores on pricing. It will be a sad, sad, sad day if/when digital distribution only becomes a reality…

  • People need to stop complaining cause last week the PSP had one of the biggest price drops ever. I am happy with my PSP GO but, there are some price drops that need to DROP. ex. Dante’s Inferno needs to be 19.99 .

  • does the sam and max game work for anyone?????

  • @Vu_Prime

    Yeah, I managed to snag Prototype from Target’s Clearance bin too for about 8 bucks, I think…:)

    @BABYMACHINE69

    No, I don’t think it’s working for anybody actually. I can’t download it either…I can wait.

  • @Crash15

    Bittersweet Irony there.

  • im having problems with DC universe, cant create a character, the world selection is empty, anyone with this problem?

  • @Crash15

    You have to admit though, you can find better deals on clearanced/on sale UMDs in stores than on the Playstation Store, period. I haven’t bought any PSP games from the PS Store for this reason.

    Playstation’s support of the PSPGo, IMO, has been pretty abysmal and I’m glad I stuck with my ole-fashioned PSP.

  • Please import some EyePet Avatars from Europe PS Store Team. They will be treated nicely in stateside. :)

    Thank you for the update though. keep up the good work.

  • I was playing Crash Team Reacing on my PSP and I was able to save when I created a new game however, after a race I tried to save but the game stated I did not have a memory card loaded in slot 1. Did this happen to anyone else?

  • PLEASE DISABLE COMMENTS. FOREVER.

  • Best update that came out in a long time !! :D I even bought a $50 PSN card just to buy stuff this week as well as the free stuff from PS+. Other than that, just adding my name to the list of having problems with Sam and Max. Hopefully it’s an easy fix. :\ Thank Sony !! :D

  • hell yeah DCUO cant wait to jump on and kill the heroes ;) if your going to be a villian add me on PSN lets team up. (please have mic)

  • @ElBarba
    I guess they were running some server maintenance. I also had the problem, but now is all good. Already created a character just for fun before coming to work, and by those simple 30 minutes of gameplay in PvP server, I can honestly say that it is a must buy in the future. Looks Great, Feels Great, and is a MMO, which adds a lot of fun in gameplay aspect.

    And I can’t leave without saying that Sam and Max is still showing error. Not that I’m that anxious to play it either, but I want to donwload it. :)

  • i been getin that same error 80023102 when i try to down load any game or bonic commando rearmed, also i have question since im new at this ps3 thing, im paying it on
    credit card, its keep giving that same error 80023102
    whats going on ???

  • Just wanted to add my name to the list of those getting the error for Sam and Max. Great update besides this issue which i know is currently being looked into. Keep up the good work Sony. Thanks

  • @Wolf26pack

    “Jurassic Park (with Move Support)”

    You sir, are a genius.

  • WOO HOO XMEN…GOT IT AND I CAN’T STOP PLAYING…CAN’T WAIT FOR NEXT WEEK…NEOGEO GAMES

  • NO French on sam and max games… what a shame.

  • I am also having the sam and max error, I hope it gets fixed soon.

  • Yes, why no Christmas Dynamic theme free for ps plus. Total bummer. Even if it was cheesy like the ps store back drop.

  • ya i’m still getting the error code for sam an max

  • We’re aware that it’s getting ridiculously long. 18 hours later still same error, i mean come on why is it so long to activate a download for free properly?

  • sam & max… you call this a game?!? or interactive garbage video?!
    it s u c k ANYWAYs.
