Dear Playstation,
I heard that the God of War III Ultimate Editions are going to be Delayed due to a manufacturing error… is this true or false?
Please be false, i have waited for this game for about 2 years…

Great week it was. I have a question i hope gets answered.
Question: Will we ever get the Playstation Home symbol as an avatar? And did Playstation Home get shown at all during GDC 2010?
Thanks! :)

Please release premium God of War 3 avatars this coming week! And more themes and wallpapers. I have the 7-11 dynamic theme, but I would like to see 1 or 2 more

I know SCE and PD are being coy on GT5’s release date. Knowing that it is coming out this year, thats fine. Although given this fact can we expect GOWII, UCII, MAG, etc levels of coverage within a month or so of its release? I think the PS Blog would be a great place for PD to build some more community relations. A certain other racing game has been very successful with this and I would love to see something similar for GT5.

A few weeks ago it took me 4 minutes to load up HOME and now after the update it takes lest then 2 minutes to get it to HOME.
Nice 1 SONY! Thanks;)
Now if only you could find a way to have HOME loaded up ready(say on the XMB)after i put on my PS3 that would be even better? ;P

Hey guys,
I’m sure I should probably post this in the Weekly Store thread, but there have been a lot of requests for Crash Team Racing for the PSOne Classics for the PSN store. Europe has it already. Any idea as to when we can expect to get it over here in the US?

I know I’m a bit late to the show for the “suggestions box” that the white blog news post had, but I have a suggestion that affects more than just the blog or site itself.
You should really add a direct link to the blog in the PS3/PSP XMB, depending on the region of the person logged in. I know it’s part of the first screen the PS3 goes to when you access the web, but putting added emphasis on the site by creating an actual blog link would garner more exposure for this place.
Also, I wouldn’t mind a Suggestion Box type of system, similar to the one Capcom Unity are trying out. It could come in handy to figure out exactly which features are wanted by your most dedicated (read: registered) fans.

Sony should keep an eye about approving Minis, there are horrible minis like ”Ice Road truck” that should definitly be deleted from PSN or it will become a nightmare.

Sony Japan could have been a little more of an exemple about minis, but taught i am happy to see another work from Sony Japan.
oh and since Minis aren’t only rival with iphone but with XboxLiveIndieGame maybe it’s time that Minis should upgrade with Online playing and Psn trophy,and a bit of add-ons?
i am looking around to see JapanStudio working on an PlartformerMinis

Chris and Jeff,
I like this PSB week, I always do as a matter of fact ever since I started frequenting this site back in February 2008. Every week is always good. Sometimes it’s bad, but it’s always good in the PSB. But what really grinds my gears and I am being honest with you guys, is…. WHY IS MY PSB WHITE!?!?!?
My suggestion is, can we PSB readers choose our own theme? Please? That’s all I ask from you guys. Thank you Chris and Jeff! Will look forward to next week’s PSB!

Only 1 PSP Game added to the PSN after a week? You guys could have honestly put more on there. Put games that people ACTUALLY WANT, previous games like Phantasy Star Portable. I usually NEVER complain but I bought a PSP Go thinking it’d be the best and you want us to support you guys yet you add NOTHING to the PSN helping the PSP Go out.
Azure_FZ said:
March 13th, 4:43 pm
I wonder do people who complain about PSPgo even know the process it takes to make the games downloadable ? Let alone I honestly doubt you guys have bought all of the games on the PSP games side. The only reason why you guys are saying they aren’t supporting is because your favorite game isn’t up. The price I can see you complaining about because that is some serious Bull.
Be thankful you even have a go, not all of us can afford a go and games.

@Chris Morell or Jeff is it possible too get Level 5 on the blog to talk about WKC 2 and its features its a very fun old skool type of game, rpg’s are not the same as they use too be this is one of my favorites . Playb3yond
Azure_FZ said:
March 13th, 5:54 pm
I wish they can talk level 5 into doing a HD Remake of Dark Cloud 2 and 1 and turn them into a collection like God of War collection.
Can you pass this on please, please D: ?
bdzer103 said:
March 13th, 7:15 pm
Be thankful I have a Go? Being able to afford a Go isn’t on the same topic of my post, thanks. I don’t mind if my favorite gam eisn’t up there. I’ve bought 6-7 games already and nothing else is left. Before you post to argue with me, go on topic.
Azure_FZ said:
March 13th, 8:08 pm
You knew full well Sony wasn’t going to put over 1000 psp games for PSN on the get go, at least they’re putting games on there.
Though forgive me my bad(seriously sorry), I will admit when you said PSN and PSP I assumed you had a go.
Most peeps I know who have PSP just buy the UMD’s.

@ 32 you dont need the GOW cups to get points, its more convenient if you buy an XL cup since its worth 4 points, any slurpee cup has a code thats worth points. Unless the reason you’re searching is because you actually want the cups for collection purposes.

Hey, I’ve noticed you guys working on Home that you are moving into a futuristic direction. Well i was thinking that maybe you should make some kind of robot or android arena for fighting or battling against your friends and you would fight by hitting button combos. Or you could make a personal place with robots or something. Or you could make a museum or showcase area with futuristic stuff in it. I think these are pretty good ideas and hope you will highly consider them.

When are we gonna hear news on DEAD NATION?
I mean, a single trailer was put up during the summer of last year and we haven’t heard squat since. Is this game still in development? Was it canceled? Are we gonna hear news on it at E3?
Lucas_London said:
March 15th, 10:59 am
I want to start a new conversation.
I believe that there should be a new update to allow us to change our psn ID, without having to create a completely new one. Anyone who agrees with me state below. Also please tell me how I can make this a more pressing issue, instead of having to put it down here. And it better be free, it’s not like Sony doesn’t earn enough money already. I’m in England by the way, if there are changes I hope it won’t be just in the US, as I have seen some changes that are. Thanks
PS: Little Big Planets awesome.

I saw the move video and it was nice but not exciting to me. I was hoping to hear something about ps2 backwards compatibility on ps3 and more role playing games like FF13. If there were more role playing games like that, more people plus myself would get a ps3. That I what I think made the ps2 very sucessful as well as ps1. There are too many shooters for the ps3 and the move seems mor targeted at kids than adults(as an adult, the move would get boring for me after a short while of usin it) ” this messages was typed from my iPhone”
