  • i want the patapon demo…. make the WINDOZE store mac compatible!!!11one why cant u do this sony? im sure it wont take more than a week to create this simple app. is it too hard?

    srsly can anyone tell me where i can get the patapon demo?? thanks

  • good update though there’s been better, im tired of people complaining about demos, demos are goodbut week afterweek colmplaining abou the same ol’ sh*t just gets annoying

  • Oh look – more people complaining about the same stuff.
    I swear to god these comments are just copy-paste’d week-to-week.
    *goes back to playing the Patapon demo*

  • ok i overreacted. i found the patapon demo was on the PSN store. but still sony, make the PC store mac compatible!

  • @ DanB91

    You should be able to access the Patapon demo from the store using your PS3. Just look for an icon in the store that says PSP demos. Download it, hook your PSP up to your PS3 via USB, and voila!

  • I really like the PSP demo’s and games being available on the Playstation store.

    More PS1 games would be great so I don’t have to carry a bunch of UMD’s to have great games on my PSP.

    Keep up the great work.

  • Thanks for the Patapon demo!!!

    Besides that, I think the ability to download stuff for the PSP off the PS3 is pretty sweet as well.

    For the people who ALWAYS hate the weekly updates…well not much to say about you guys.

  • Agh! Stop releasing Little Big Planet videos. I can’t take it anymore. If I see another one, I’ll explode with anticipation. (If you can’t tell, I’m really looking forward to this game…)

    Nice on the Patapon demo, glad you guys listen to your readership. Cause…you know, I couldn’t read that Patapon demo in Japanese for some odd reason.

  • nice update!!

    but can you please add the Harvey Birdman demo to the ps3 store, seems like the pc store doesn’t work for me :(

    the Syphon Filter: LS and SOCOM: Tactical Strike Demos would be nice too !!

    …and how can i forget the Chains of Olympus demo !!, please add it to the ps3 store.

    you know there’s no Best buy, Circuit City or even Gamestop here in méxico. btw any info about the mexican ps3 store?

  • Twisted Metal: Head On
    can it be downloaded and played on the ps3
    ??????????????????????????????????

  • NICE!!! MLB The Show!

  • Downloading MLB 08 and Lost Planet (guessing version 2?) demos on PS3. Patapon and MLB 08 for PSP on PC.

    Good update

  • I grow so tired of Mac owners complaining that things don’t work for their system.

    Listen: you knowingly purchased a computer with a much smaller customer base… so you need to expect that companies will spend a much smaller amount of time/money trying to get things to work on that platform.

    It’s a bit like buying a Ferrari and then complaining that none of the Ford dealers carry parts for your car.

    Suck it up, or join the masses. Just quit whining.

  • Nice update. I honestly think that putting demo’s for the PSP up on the PS3 is an awesome idea !! It would be even better to get more games with remote play up there, even demos !!!!

  • Thank You! That is all. (Isn’t it nice when appreciation comes without conditions?)

  • Hot update. Patapon is crazy cool.

  • Wooohaaaa Nice Sony THE MLB demo is what i was waiting!!! Thanks!! And Please Put Mexico on the PSN!!

  • Can all the whining Mac users please shut up…week after week the same tune.

    You CHOSE to buy a Mac…did you do so thinking the Windows world would bend over for you? If you have a recent Mac run BootCamp or Wine. If you have an older Mac…too bad, the world (including your Apple company) has moved forward and left you behind.

    /rant

    Thanks SONY for the demos and hoping for awesomness next week (hoping to hear the official TIVO addon announcement)

  • @ 59
    i just check the store and found the harvey birdman, soccom and syphon filter demos !! Thankyou Sony for be my Valentine!!

    love ya!!

    not trying to abuse but, Chains of Olympus demo please. :D

    PSN 4 México!!

  • It sucks that the Patapon Demo can neither be downloaded from a Mac or the PS3. Sony, why do you make me use a sub-standard platform to get something new? Support the Mac and, OMG, support the PS3. I cannot believe I have neither option in this case?

  • Not too shabby. Can’t wait to get my hands on the MLB demo.

    Will the games that used to be on UMD’s ever get a lower price? For 14.99 I can buy the UMD game and save space on my memory stick.

  • The MLB demo is great!!!!!

  • Hey ericsenf…

    Do you actually own a PS3? If so you would see that the PSP Patapon is there.

  • @kspraydad

    thats what I always think.. why not try the boot camp?

    Was a good update… a demo is always welcome and more if I want to check if I will like it to buy it…

    waiting for the GDC to see if you will have an update for the ps3 and hear some solution for us US people that will not have the PLAY TV… I hope a TIVO add on… a lot of mature people will buy that since day one… and bring me the profile 2.0 please

  • SONY!

    WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!?!?!?

    HAVE SONY BMG FREAKING OPEN IT’S CAHCE AND START SOME DIGITAL DOWNLOADS OF MOVIES AND TV SHOWS!

    RELEASE THE DUALSHOCK CONTROLLER ALREADY!

    AND WHERE THE HECK ARE ALL THE PSOne GAMES??!?!?!?

    are you waiting for home to launch or something?

    whatever..

    (goes back to playing BioShock)

    someday I’ll actually play my PS3..someday…

  • @ericsenf
    the demo is in the PSN store u just have to look for PSP Demos.
    and for the people complaining “u have a mac stop whining” :
    if u havent noticed the mac user base is growing at an astonishing rate. apple is ranked 3rd in computer manufactures in terms of sales. maybe our argument wouldnt hold much water 10 years ago, but the mac user base has increased SIGNIFICANTLY since then

  • Patapon is cool but besides that- this update sucks just like almost every other week. i thought this blog was here so the people at Sony could listen to us. The dude in charge of the PS Store really needs a damn good firing.

  • I would like to see more psp games being able to buy off psn. I already got Twisted Metal Head On for PS2 and see no need to get it for psp. I thought it would be lower like $10 since it retailers for $20 for the actual umd. Hope to see a PS1 game next week in the store. I might download Patapon and the MLB game to see if I want to buy them.

  • Gregero, they’re not going to only cater to YOUR requests. Also, if you could read, it’s NOT a dude who’s in charge of the weekly updates for the store.

    Take a chill pill kids.

  • no, no. i’m not expecting them to cater to my requests but i am expecting them to cater to the majority’s requests who’ve asked over and over for better stuff. There’s ALWAYS someone that’s held liable at the end of the day so there is ALWAYS somebody to fire. A company does not exist without liability. I’ve taken my vicodin so I’m chill, but it’s still not good for people to say “Good job, Sony!” when they’re obviously not delivering. It only allows them to drop more crap on us. Check the rest of the public posts and you’ll see the majority of the people here agree with me.

  • :lol: Vicodin.

    It’s cool that everyone has an opinion. I’m just letting you know that not everyone can be pleased with every update. ;)

  • Yeah I hear you, man. Once we get the xmb and home you’re gonna hear a lot less b!tching from me lol. Let’s hear it for Clinton and Obama, huh? Good luck to them both. What’s your psn id, Clinton514? What games you get down on?

  • It’s ClinToN but unfortunately my list is full. That’s one thing I can nag on Sony about. EXPAND THE FRIEND LIST!

    Shoot me a message anyway just to say hello.

  • Hey all of Mexicos PS3 Owners Lets hask sony for PSN Mexico!!!! we cant buy nothing on the store

  • So, is HD required for the LittleBigPlanet create a level demo?

  • yeah sony… what mexico is suffer is really bad… at least I’m ok because here in Puerto Rico use everything from US even the credit cards… so.. release the PSN cards or make them a PSN for them wish is better I guess…

  • THANK YOU FOR MLB 08 the SHOW!!!!

  • amazing demo of the show cant wait day 1 purchase….keep up the good work!!!

  • I understand if the game companies don’t ship demo’s to Sony for the PSN in time, I mean, noone can control that but the actual game companies.

    I just don’t see what is taking Sony so long to catch up with the 360’s online domination.

    I got my PS3 at launch, and have loved it ever since. Media streaming with WI-FI built in, web surfing, FREE online, Blu-ray movies, memory card and sd slots for family viewing of pictures, etc. etc. (did I mention FREE ONLINE GAMING!!)

    But when my girlfriend got me a 360 for Xmas this year, I was so surprised to see you can download movies and tv shows and stuff! in HD nonetheless!

    And you can instantly change your music anytime or join a game so easliy with other people via instant messaging on Live..

    Why can’t we just get these functionalities for the PSN/PS3? If you are waiting for HOME, just say so, it seems like you guys are dropping the ball!

    I love ya PS3, and have stood by ya since the beginning, and I’m saying NOW is the time to push it to the next level and silence all the critics! 2008 will be the PS3’s year!

    Just hurry up already! lol!

    PLEASE GET THE DUAL SHOCK CONTROLLERS OUT ALREADY!!!!! @#$#$$!

    PLEASE BRING BACK FULL BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY VIA EMOTION CHIP IN THE NEW 120 gig PS3 models! OR PLEASE LOWER THE PS3 PRICE TO BOOST THE INSTALL BASE WITH THE PRODUCTION COSTS SAVINGS!

    AND PLEASE MAKE YOUR ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT XMB / HOME ALREADY! THE WORLD IS WAITING! Just let us know you are working on it and we will shut up already! “teh interwebz” is blowing up with accusations that the mighty PS3 Cell processor can’t handle in game XMB because of limited built in memory!

    PLEASE GET THOSE PSN CARDS OUT THERE FOR PEOPLE TO BUY!

    AND PLEASE GET SONY BMG TO OPEN UP THE HUUUGE COLLECTION OF MEDIA FOR THE PSN!!

    AND FINALLY PLEASE MAKE ALL FUTURE GAMES SUPPORT 1080i FOR ALL THOSE POOR PEOPLE BEING FORCED TO PLAY AT 480 that own a HD set!!

    /rant

    whew I feel better.

  • Its a good update.

    Sucks that we have to wait a week again for something to be added back to the store.

  • Let me take a moment to commend you guys for an AMAZING JOB on MLB08! You have the best baseball game on the markey BY FAR (This makes MLB2K look like dogpoo). Excellent work, SONY!!!!

  • >>Everyone Complaining about PC Store

    BootCamp, do you know it?

    Also, everything can also be also downloaded through your PS3 as well. Like if you buy Beats, you don’t have to install it through the PC Store. Just download through your account history on the PS3 and their you go, have your PS3 copy over to your PSP.

    And one more thing, I find it hard to believe that you have no access what so ever to a PC. No friends, relatives, library’s, schools, or internet cafes have PC’s you could use?

  • If you don’t like baseball, this isn’t really that great of an update in the store. But heh, maybe some news about the in-game XMB would appease the masses (Me and the ppl who don’t like sports games)

  • How about Intelligent Qube, SCEA? And weekly PSOne game releases? It’s money in your pocket! Think about it, ok? Maybe ask your shareholders what they think about you guys making more money. Their answer might shock you apparently!

  • Lost Planet Demo back up and running smooth. This game represented a time when Capcom was not respecting Sony at all so don’t expect a great port. The xbox version still looks better. However now that the PS3 has found her voice i hope that Capcom will show Sony the respect that it deserves and make their games first on the PS3 which of course is the better system to start with these days.

  • Im a big of the MLB: The Show series but after playing the Demo of MLB 08 i was a little dissapointed. a lot of things they didnt fix from last year’s MLB. after you field a ball in the infield the fielder take about 2 seconds and then reacts. and the game plays the same as MLB 07. Hope you fix this by March 4. Thanks SCEA San Diego

  • I have no idea how Baseball works but after spending an hour with MLB08 Demo, I started enjoying it.

    I might rent the game.

    I wish the other sports games were as detailed as MLB.

  • @89

    S H U T T H E F U C K U P!!!!

  • Sony please.. ban the sagar dude…

    and for frito… I’m with you in so many things, about full compatibility thing check this http://www.ps3fanboy.com/2008/02/13/ps2-backwards-compatibility-not-dead-yet/

    About in game xmb and home really… wait for GDC, why make a small announcement when you can make it big. The wait hurts I know and not hearing nothing even worse…

    The dual shock it’s already released in japan and the cards too… is just a matter of time really, it’s just they get it first…

    About the BMG and sony pictures well.. they had a reunion this days… I hope to see that soon and the home theater means something great..

    What I want more than nothing is a solution of the Play TV in the states… I want a TIVO thing better.. I have all the channels and all… but keep the Play TV software please because I love it…
