  • Happy Easter Grace!

    btw, do you know if ‘PSP Favourites’ is coming America?

    …it just went live on the EU update and its pretty dam impressive :)

  • is this the 2nd straight week of no demos…?? a few good titles on sale tho….

  • Hey could you possibly clarify for those who had previously purchased the “Eye of Indra” episodes separately, how we now get the extra content? There was a rather dizzying post regarding this early. A follow-up would be great.

    Thanks!

  • I’ll never buy from Sony again

  • Terrible update. I’m not going to say Monkeys are running the store because they’d do a better job than this crap.

  • AlabamaRollTide8

    Where the hel is the Modern Warfare 2 maps!?

  • …Nice to see BlazBlue PSP show up a full three weeks after its release, but why only one PSOne game?

    Really? Why not Alien Trilogy, Breath of Fire III, Chrono Cross, Star Wars Rebel Assault II, Ace Combat, Star Trek Invasion, Colony Wars, Spider-Man, or any of a dozen others?

  • What happened to trying to update the store earlier?

    Its an hour earlier then last week but that’s like showing up for work only 1/2 hour late instead of an hour late.

    Its better, but still not acceptable.

    Quit “Trying” and actually succeed already.

  • i want A final Fantasy 13 Demo next week

  • RE: AlabamaRollTide8

    Read the back of the Modern Warfare 2 box for the PS3: notice it does NOT say anything about Add-On Content.

    I noticed this when it was released.

  • YES BLAZBLUE!!!!! (dusts off PSPgo)

  • I like the sales!

  • @ punisher18

    then don’t, we don’t need to read your useless comment

  • Hey good update

    I have an important request. I would like sony to put sound for everytime I get a message over the psn. Sometimes Im not facing the ps3 and I might be on the computer and people will invite me to games and I would never know that they even sent me a message. Please put a feature in that we can turn on and off that alerts us of a new message, thank you.

  • The Lost Planet 2 early access demo still is not up.

    Great going SCE.

  • yet another horrible update for pspgo. That DSIXL is looking really tempting…

  • Question about Uncharted Skins for people that bought all epiodes already…..When do we get our Skins? We bought the episodes before the pack, but we have to wait longer to get the skins?

  • Thanks for updated Grace have good Easter weekend.

  • @verafx, refer to the Share Blog.

  • wow…I seriously hope this update is an april fool’s joke. And before anyone complains about there’s no over priced MW2 maps we dont have a chance to get them till 30 days AFTER xbox users way to not stick up for us Sony!

  • aw was expecting different games to go on sale for the “games of spring” sale.

    *here’s hoping that pixel junk shooter shows up!

  • I bought a game from Spring Fever sale, how I get the Home item?

    • You should receive an email with a voucher code early next week. The voucher code will entitle you to a part of the Home avatar Spring Fever costume.

  • I got that ‘Warhawk Dynamic Theme’ FREE off the European PSN Store :D

  • Can we possibly get a free purchase, or game for having to sacrifice Linux to have PSN?

  • RE Uncharted Skins from Motion Comics

    The original post indicated it will likely be about a week before codes go out to those who bought the episodes individually previously. Probably to give time for all the transactions from the last minute to go through, so no one gets lost in the system.

  • Sweet mother of Segac…. $5 for a character that’s already in the game!?

    No PJ Shooter demo?

    echoshift drops its price in half after just a month and I bought it day one???

    Well…. at least there’s the Tik-Creat sale to soothe the pain.

  • @8 & 10
    Modern Warfare 2 maps come out April 30th due to Microsoft paying for timed exclusivity. IDK why people are waiting to pay $15 for some crap maps when BFBC2 does it MUCH better, and for free.

    Anyway, this update was ok. I’m so glad i’ve only transferred $20 to my account this week.

  • And so it starts.. EYE OF JUDGMENT LEGENDS Card Expansion is the first of many nickles and dimes I’m going to lose.

  • I won’t be buying anything until the ‘Other OS’ feature is restored.

  • BTW, WTF…. I just bought Echoshift last week and now it’s on sale! >:(

    This just gave me a reason to hold off on buying stuff immediately!

  • Ugh….nothing for me this week. I’ll let my mom know about the Mahjong Tales price cut.

    A buddy of mine was gonna buy the MW2 DLC that is missing from this week, but 3.21 locked up his SLIM PS3. He’ll have to wait for his crappy replacement(refurb instead of new) before he decides whether or not he will ever buy a Sony product again. Losing months worth of gameplay because of a forced update to play online is unacceptable. Get your sh$# together guys.

  • Nice April Fools Joke SONY cause u changed the new download date of america 3/31/10 while its 4/1/10 i thought i was loosing it lol decent joke lolz

  • @ #6 MW2 maps are exclusive to xbox360 first then PS3 at a later date.

  • So you take away my linux, and you give me a crummy store update. Still no Final Fantasy Crisis Core for my PSP Go. And I got another question, How about some PS2 support! All I would exect is a thumb drive with the emotions chip in it. I stick it in my ps3 and magicaly can play my old ps2 games. charge me 59 buck for the flash drive. How hard would that be??

  • @ #2 lost planet 2 demo is available if you signed up at the community site and you get early access

  • This was a decent update Keep up the good work with the discount sales Sony and I will keep buying stuff.

    People stop complaining it cannot be a stellar knock out every store update.

    And the MW2 maps are timed exclusive so wait 30 days than you guys can go from complaining about them not being out to how glitchy and over priced the maps are.

  • What a gip! Why do the EU get the Warhawk dynamic theme for free?!

  • LOL @ MW2 maps. Who really cares about those?

    Give us some good PS1 classics please. Grandia was the last one and that was almost two months ago.

  • Thank you for the store update Grace. Was hoping for some GoW3 avatars… soon hopefully.

    why are people so rude and disrespectful when commenting on the store if they dont get what they want? infants!

  • i agree wit the others that say this

    I have an important request. I would like sony to put sound for everytime I get a message over the psn. Sometimes Im not facing the ps3 and I might be on the computer and people will invite me to games and I would never know that they even sent me a message. Please put a feature in that we can turn on and off that alerts us of a new message, thank you

  • BlazBlue at last!!!!!

  • Grace Chen, I was wondering When the next Heavy Rain Chronicles episode would be available?

    Also, one quick question about the dragon age origins Feastday DLC. This pack is free in other regions such as the EU store. Why not make it free also in USA PSN instead of charging money for it?

  • Eh disappointing update -_-

    Did have the joy of turning the PS3 to get a firmware update… but oh, its the one that removes my other OS.

  • YEAH
    TY SONY

  • Why is the Dragon Age DLC free for Europeans?

    ::Goes on European account and downloads DA DLC::

  • Still no Sprint Cars: World of Outlaws?? When is it coming out?!

  • Weak Update….I was hoping for a bit stronger showing with the firware fiasco. Work harder on next weeks showing…thx

    BTW…What was added on Firmware 3.21

  • Very weak update.

  • i wasn’t really looking forward to something new this week but good update anyway

    might get some games while their 4.99 though on a 20 psn card

    too busy enjoying god of war3, ff13, anarchy and section 8 and i might get bc2 soon who knows

  • @29 – Ramokk

    You are going to be waiting a looooooooooong time.

    Not much of interest this week. echoshift must not have sold very well; a sale already?
