Yo Sony thanks for giving yet another triumphant pile of gold crap. You know what’s funny? 3rd party games find their Add one faster than yours. Have the effing games don’t even register that they have any. Have to search through lots of bulls**t to find ONE! Your store states their ISN’T any add ones but your Add on section has them! Way to go. No wonder why Japan is failing. Keep this up and apple or Microsoft can earn my money! This is from a dedicated Sony lover since 1996. Eff you too grace for defending it.

looks nice, to bad its junk.
it takes forever to load.
The lists aren’t sub-categorized well at all, if i go into addons, im probably looking for an addon for a game i own, not some random games list.
when the fastest way to find anything is to scroll through ALL GAMES, find the one game i want, and go into that games addons tab rather than just go to the addons tab on page 1! of the PS store you should know you screwed up.
way to mess with a system that already worked near perfect.

The new Playstation store is TERRIBLE!!!! I hate it with the passion of a thousand burning suns.I recently sent an email asking for some help with the PS Store. I asked these questions.

1) View results as a list and not HUGE icons that only allow 9 things at a time to be on the screen?
2) Group the add ons by the game, instead of having to look through LITERALLY HUNDREDS of add ons? I DON’T want to group the search for “weapons” or “levels”, I want to group it by the game ITSELF.
3) A way to separate all the videos and other media content AWAY from the game content? I don’t care to be bombarded with movies or shows I have already seen, own, or have on netflix or Hulu. I go to the Playstation Store for GAME CONTENT

I got a response from:
Michael T.
PlayStation® Technical Support

He didn’t answer a SINGLE question that I asked. He treated me like an idiot that couldn’t even click the game and then add on sections. Sony, I have decided that I will no longer make purchases from the PS Store. I don’t really care, and since you seem to NOT care about your customers you won’t be getting any money from me. I will just wait for GoTY editions to come out with all the DLC on the disc.

BRING BACK BLUE!

If you’re not gonna listen to us about this horrible new interface then at least, we implore you, try not to Windows Phone the rest of the PlayStation brand, please? It looks terrible, it loads terribly, it feels terrible to use, it’s counter-productive to waste money on designing it only to have to fix everything that’s wrong with it later.

First time long on for this and I am REALLY upset it’s to talk trash but I have to agree with the majority. The new store sucks to the Nth degree guys. I have trouble finding the add-ons I want and the search function is just stupid with that letter by letter crud. Get your stuff together and either really truly listen to us and fix it or go to the old store..by the way this is my first time with the new store..I don’t like it..FIX IT OR GET RID OF IT.

New design looks nice, but functions like crap.

1. Loading seems worse.
2. Unable to search for DLC by game. Matter of fact the whole Addon menu needs overhauled.
3. Search results for DLC don’t show addons that haven’t been added to the menu yet, even if it is the release day(Mass Effect 3 Omega comes out today and I want to get it downloaded before tonight is over.)
4. Needs the option to revert to the old PS Store. I preferred it.

Quite frankly I highly dislike the new store. It is much more visually appealing but it’s slow and tedious to navigate. I like the thought but the execution seems rather poor. I’d much rather have a quick, easy-to-navigate interface over a pretty yet bogged down interface any day.

Please revert back to the original store. There’s been a wrong exchange of new visuals over convenience.

The original PlayStation Store was simplistic, fast and navigational. The new store is very time consuming and not to mention laggy.

And typing in keywords is harder than the virtual keyboard, which was a LOT easier.

Dear Sony and Grace Chen,

With ten pages and over four hundred negative responses to the new Store, when are you going to address our complaints? You forced an update on us that nobody seems to like (or want) at all! Not only that, but this new store and all of its thus far useless updates take up valuable hard drive space, something the older,and better, store didn’t do!

So, what and when are you going to do something? Ten pages and all we get is one very short reply!

The least you could do would be to post a new blog owning up to this mistake! Maybe you could even assure us that you’re working on a way to undo all the damage you’ve caused to the store to! Whomever designed this new store should be sacked along with the committee that approved it!

Anxiously awaiting a response,
Koi

Im going to have to agree with the majority here. The new Store really sucks. It actually wouldn’t be all that bad if navigating though the store wasn’t a pain in the butt.

Im sorry Sony but I refuse to buy anything until this is fixed.

SPEAK WITH YOUR WALLET. THEN THEY WILL LISTEN
