Hey Ryan,
Beyond!!! What ever happened to “Putty Squad” for the PS4? It was listed to launch on PSN 11 March 14. Just curious!
Cheers!!!
This is a great week for playstation nation……Infamous….Metal Gear….
Im hoping Ninja Gaiden is awesome im looking forward to playing that game.
Helldivers is next on my list of most wanted.
The cross buy,cross play,cross save of that game makes it an automatic day one purchase for me…
So much win and i know that there is more to come in the months ahead.
Why is ffx remaster still not available for preorder on NA PSN?
Ahhh.. Jonesing for Ground Zeroes…
Disappointing for the PS Vita, I wanted to care about this drop, I really did.
I hope Final Fantasy does really well! Got my copy preordered, simply can’t wait.
Yes been waiting for the final fantasy x/x2 hd release since I heard about it way back in 2011 final fantasy x/x2 are my favorites from the series I will be buying digital I can’t freaking wait I am so very excited.
..so, is this week’s update actually going to go live on the correct day? Also, can PS4 owners pre-load InFamous Second Son?
Hope the FFX collection are available separately. More interested in the sequel since i don’t have that on PS2, kinda sick of FFX also. Hope FFX-2 isn’t as linear as FFX but I think it probably is.
@neuropunk facebook final fantasy x/x2 hd are only available in a combo pack for the ps3 and the ps vita and on the PlayStation store digitally.
I got Final Fantasy X HD collection Remaster and MGSV Ground Zeros. Final Fantasy X never looked so much beautiful and Ground Zeros is amazing. Like playing a action packed movie on the PS4.
Another question I know tomorrow is Monday but will the digital version of final fantasyx hd go live on the PlayStation store at midnight when it becomes tuesday?
@110 can’t figure out which Facebook page and what post it is.
Has it been officially confirmed? Because people said the same thing about the Symphonia collection, but I ended up not having to buy the garbage sequel. Also, even if only available as a bundle at launch, doesn’t mean they won’t someday be available for purchase separately.
Getting both Ground Zeroes and Second Son!
Yes neuropunk they will be released in a combo pack only on ps3 vita and ps store digital download.
Can someone please tell me why we still can’t pre-order MGS: GZ on the PS4? This is killing me!

Just consider it done SONY
Why does Infamous come out on Friday when everything gets released on Tuesday? I pre-ordered it on PSN but if it gets released early in stores I would be kind of pissed.
Why i can’t pre-order mgsgz on my ps4 but can on ps3
Infamous. Finally. This is a game that Sony actually deserves a pat on the back over.
Is the Vita FF X2 a download voucher or is it on the card, like MGS 2 & 3?
Raiden it is a download voucher for x2.

That is what they said about Tales of Symphonia Chronicles, yet I only bought Symphonia stand alone for $20. I will bet that even if not available for purchase separately at release, they probably will be at least one day.
Maybe someday but it has been confirmed by square enix that it will not be sold separately right now. And maybe it never will be.
I already have Stealth for PS Vita. do I still have to pay for the PS4 version or do I get it as well?
Final Fantasy X | X-2 HD Remaster, i can’t wait for it. i couldn’t decide what version to get ps3 or vita so i pre-ordered both
If i leave my PS4 on standby mode will Infamous download automatically since i pre order it? Why was there no pre order for metal Gear on PS4 on the PSN store?
Soon I shall be Delsin Rowe. Oh yeah!
Oh please, the odds of the store being delayed twice in one month are stupidly high.
Like Vegas sensing a few easy marks and putting up tempting odds.
A good couple of questions might be about possible sales extensions, maybe some requests for status updates on specific titles.
Like Borderlands 2 for the Vita.
Maybe some more info on future indie developer sales.
If I buy Metal Gear Solid Ground Zeroes (PS4) on the 18th, will that count towards the $10 credit promotion? I would buy it right now, but you guys don’t have the ps4 version up for preorder.
iieeyyeeeeeesss!!
Ahh.. I wish J-Star could be on the US PSN Store
http://www.jp.playstation.com/cp/jstars/
I guess I will just purchase mine on the Japanese PSN store.
Have yet to see any official confirmation of it being a digital bundle. It’s stupid not to sell them separate. More people would buy them separately than paying for only 1 game they want.
Guess I can’t blame you for not linking proof, since you can’t post links here. i have yet to see official proof, but we’ll know for certain on Tuesday.
Why isn’t the game in the PS4 playstation store its in the PS3 one
Ryan, just wondering when i will be able to digitally download Metal Gear Solid V Ground Zeroes from Playstation Network on the Playstation 4?
Finally some ps4 games, Infamous looks sick, can’t wait, but going to be hard to peel myself away from Dark Souls 2 what an amazing game.
Hey Clements,
A fellow beyonder needs your help. I used to be able to purchase stuff on psn via the website. I am not home often to be on my playstation, because of the work I do, but I still like buying games especially when they are on sale. Can you or Steimer help and or tell me why? Scoop?!

I am not home often to be on my playstation, because of the work I do, but I still like buying games especially when they are on sale. Can you or Steimer help and or tell me why I can’t anymore? The icons for adding to the cart or buying a game disappear once I log in. Scoop?!
I think enough people have asked that this question needs an answer:
WHERE IS THE METAL GEAR GROUND ZEROES PREORDER FOR PS4???
Megulito, try another browser and see if they show up or not. If they do, then it’s something related to the browser you’re using (maybe cache, cookies or some other temporary files).
Any chance of releasing second son digital on Tuesday ? lots of people already have the retail copy, spoiling everywhere. At least for those who pre-orded.
Catcher_BR – That won’t be fair to the retail preorder folks then. The retail copies that have leaked, aren’t widespread, from the indication, maybe less than a 1000 people have gotten their hands on them, which isn’t a lot when you consider the number of people interested in the game. Either get rid of the retail street date (and release the digital version on tuesday) or stick with the friday release date for both versions.
BEYOND!
Any news on when Minecraft is coming to Vita? :-/
Hopefully no issues with the store this week. :) Anyway, excited for Infamous and I don’t even have a PS4 yet!
I’m really getting sick of having to buy retail copies of games because Sony doesn’t let us know when a game will be available digitally. Day 1 Digital on the PS4 store still shows COD as first on the list… then shows The Order- a game that doesn’t even have a release date! But Tomb Raider Definitive had no heads up on the store to assure me I didn’t need to order a physical copy to have it on day 1, and now the same has happened with Metal Gear Ground Zeroes. It’s time to get your act together Sony!
Hmm…Ninja Gaiden Z is already releasing….I really hope for a demo.Luftrausers sure looks interesting and Stealth Inc. “Ultimate Edition”…oh my…this is some bulls***…and Ground Zeroes hahaha…that game is a joke…I’ll be looking forward to see Ground Zeroes for free in the IGC…it’ll come eventually.
That Second Son,damn I wanna play that game…but I would need a PS4 for that ha.
@ 84 MAYHAMM – Hey man…it is the demo…and you have to pay $20 for it.
Infamous Second Son is why I got my PS4. Kinda on the fence about Ground Zeroes
