Looks like another hour of maintenance

You GOT to be kitten me

 

[Eusis]

If Sony wants to shit on XBL they need to get it together. This is just unacceptable. Even Valve updates their store consistently

I almost take it they're just trying to shit on online in general instead now.

 

[ZeroAKA]

You GOT to be kitten me

 

[UberTag]

Nothing like a good old-fashioned midnight update.

Well, at least you're being optimistic. That's only two hours from now in my time zone.

mah waifu! not really but lol

You have got to be kidding me.

 

[Ljwinter]

I would say I'd pay for a better service...but I'm already a Plus member. Speaking of...would be nice if Plus members got access a day earlier or so. But at this point I'd take any consistancy.

So Dragon Fantasy looks pretty bad. The trailer is giving me horrible flashbacks of Breath of Death VII.

Thought it looked that way on purpose? Book 1 is 8-bit, book 2 will be 16-bit, and book 3 will be 3D.

Pretty sure he meant from a gameplay perspective.

I've seen nothing about the game so far so I have no opinion on it, though.

 

[Live Free or Die]

People still complaining when the store updates? Somethings never change.

Why shouldn't they? Other platforms update at a set time. Shit, SCEJ, SCEE can as well. What the fuck is going on at SCEA?

Store still not updating at a regular time? Some things never change.

 

[antibolo]

While Grace Chen Time is in full effect, can anyone explain to me why Dragon Fantasy is getting so much fanfare? Not trying to troll here, I honestly don't know, and would like to know. I'm always down for a game with old school graphics but so far nothing I've seen about it has convinced me that this is a game I gotta play.

 

[Ben Morales]

There better be another Luscious Latinas wallpaper pack for being so late tonight. *drools*

I'd say the complaining is a bit justifiable.

 

[kassatsu]

I want to buy the Injustice Season Pass and Sony doesn't want my money it seems. ><

I should have gotten the 360 version. ><

[Dead Prince]

doesn't the PSMobile update always goes up accordingly?

 

[erpg]

Bed time. Curse whoever denied me an evening of Soul Sacrifice.

OK now conjure up my ten dollar promotion :'(

 

[mullet2000]

In all seriousness, one of the best things Sony could possibly tell me about the PS4 at this point is that store updates will be at a set time of 6 am or something. As long as it's way it is now i'm not going to have digital distribution be my main source of buying games within the Sony ecosystem.

 

[kassatsu]

No update 2 weeks in a row! (so it seems)

 

[Seventy5]

I'm sorta ticked off. Apparently today is the last day for sales on borderland 2 dlc and I can't access the psn store. This is bs. I wish they would extend it another week.

I managed to buy it at the discount on the webstore a couple hours ago during the maintenance. I would try that. It took like 10 minutes of trying, but after that I was able to download it without even going into the PS3 store.

 

[Nasser]

Been waiting for SS demo for hours now... whats up with Sony today?

Holy crap, every refresh adds like 50 extra comments. That comment section is exploding right now xD.

I'd hit it. With a motherfucking clock.

Always thought that this was a pretty big deal. Why release your games after a full retail day? I feel for people waiting on Injustice and the like. You have the chance to go grab a retail copy but you chose to go with PSN. Sounds irritating.

Us Vita owners gotta fill the time somehow.

I don't think many people are still making games for it. The official forums for it are kind of dead.

at least the rating is good.

The worst thing is that sometimes the Day 1 Digital games actually do hit at midnight. Army of Two 3, BioShock Infinite, and Tiger Woods 14 all had a midnight release on the same day for instance.

I kind of like DD because I can buy and play a game all without getting off my ass.

With physical I have to get off my ass, put on pants, drive to the store request the game from the clerk, drive back home, put the disc in and then I get to play.

Also, having DD games is like having a multi-disc CD player, but more practical


They need to take it from Steam. Allow you to pre-purchase a digital game, preload it so you can have it on release day at midnight and most importantly HAVE A CONSISTENT TIME FOR UPDATING THE STORE.

*ahem*

That's midnight Pacific. So, for those of us on East Coast time, it's kind of pointless.

That's what I'm talking about. Consistency. They would greatly benefit with a little.

Absolutely. It just sucks that you have to wait around while the world moves around SEN.

That's a fair point, and I feel for you. Still it at least proves that Sony is able to do an overnight update.

I wonder if Grace would update the store faster for you all if I sacrifice my soul to her.

soul sacrifice is going to be huge how come scea don't market it

 

[UFRA]

Yup, it's definitely irrational for people to desire a consistent and stable update schedule for the store updates.

Edit: Not only is the store down for me but also PSN in general.

 

[SmithnCo]

What if this IS their marketing.

 

[Square Triangle]

When the SS trailer plays at work, I shit you not, almost every customer watches it and says "That looks awesome, when is that out?"

I tell them "this month and for the Vi--"

As soon as I say the Vita, they lose interest.

Boo-urns. You should take that as an opportunity to sell them on the Vita.

And if they say "not interested", you ask why.

And if the say "no games", you say "that right there on the screen is a game".
And it can play the entire PS1/PSP digital library.
And you can stream PS4 games to it.
And if you're a Plus subscriber, you probably own a half-dozen games for it already.

And if they say "too expensive", then you say "let me take your name and information and I'll contact you when we have a price drop".

I have like 2247MB or something like that on my MemCard. That should be enough for the SS demo right? (I need to ditch this 4GB card)

Update on an update?

So just the other day I was playing Metal Gear Solid on my PS Vita... oh wait.
