PlayStation Store 10/23/12 - The Unfinished Swan | Frobisher Says! | Orgarhythm

It's SCEE, so who the fuck knows. I wouldn't be surprised if they slip it in next week and claim that it still counts as October, even though it'll be November in Aus/NZ. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if it disappeared like a myriad of other games we're still waiting for.

thanks for the reply. I'm really hoping it's this week because I can't see myself buying it next week with the avalanche of titles coming.

even this week will be tough with forza horizon, but if it's out today, I'd get at least two / three days of play.

I'm betting it will be next week. We all know they hate money, so they'll want to bury it beneath all of the big releases next week.

a depressing thought, but it's probably the most accurate. I wish they could explain why certification takes longer here, it was cleared for release on pc and on the us store, so why does sony europe have to take these extra steps? the same with xbox live arcade. it's become increasingly annoying to have to wait for games that are available in other regions. that's not how a digital store is supposed to work in my opinion.

This "may" shed some light on some things...

Also on the DYAD Twitter account, the developer did say SCEE were "different"

Oh, and while I'm on the subject, Auditorium finally has a PEGI rating. How long has it been in the US for? :p

I didn't check the price of the collection, but individual games of the GoW Origins Collection are still 20$ on US PSN. So it's cheaper for now to buy the collection :/ I will wait until they update the prices.

They're just holding it back, so they can give it out for free on PS+ next month.

Keep telling yourself that!

Great to see SEGA's digital pricing on PSN...

Super Monkey Ball = £30 in UK, $30 in US. £1 = $1.

It's £15 in UK shops. Sooooo...

I really doubt it. If anything, I expect Vita PSN+ first month to be full of the stuff no-one bought at launch plus maybe Uncharted or FIFA Football.

In other words, Little Deviants, A-Men (probably to spark interest in the PS3 version), that sort of thing.

I'll be happy to be proved wrong but I'm not expecting a blockbuster start...

I just noticed Wonder Boy III: The Dragon's Trap is up on the Virtual Console, but not on PSN.

Come oooon, SEGA, why must you make me suffer.

ugh, the front page is now showing the halloween sale and dark souls dlc for me but trying to select any of it says "This content cannot be selected at this time"

Yeah it's not really working, lol. Unfinished Swan is still PS+ exclusive and the only new game showing up in "latest PS3 games" is 007.

Good work :p

So it hasn't updated for others too?
Hope I like this new theme/design eventually as I am not liking it very much now.

Yea it still hasn't updated for me either.

Really annoyed since I was looking forward to playing the Dark Souls DLC today (hopefully it actually comes out in the next hour or so, so that I can actually start it).

And I was starting to like the new store as well...
 
Search for whatever you want. I just bought Killzone HD.

The new store still sucks. There's this slight input lag that's really annoying when going through long lists, like the DLC one. And if this late update is a sign of things to come with the new store then they've somehow even made it worse.

Damn, I came back home expecting to but Dead Rising 2:OTR and Dead Island and it's not even up yet. That is just astonishingly late.

SCEE says that SFxT will be on todays update. SUPRISE! Only gems are available on the store.

"Hahahahah... You thought that we'd actually release the full game?! NO FUCK YOU".

Also, Little Kings Story is "no content can be found".

So i was looking forward to playing Unfinished Swan tonight (been waiting for it a long time) and it's not up yet. Well, the front end seems to be updated but none of the links actually work.
 
It's, what, 8:30pm in the UK? I wonder if they've just gone home and will update the store tomorrow. SCEE, ladies and gentlemen, SCEE.

I'm under the assumption that the full game is out on Friday in the UK. Standard practice for retail titles that wasn't covered on the blog (then again, if you're in mainland Europe, you have a point).

As for the DLC, indeed it's not under Latest but it's on the store in the Little King's Story DLC section.

Update seems to be trickling in. Dead Rising has it's sale price (via search) but Dead Island doesn't for instance. Artorias of the Abyss also seems available.
 
Got the PS3 Dark Souls update.

In some ways I like the new store, the process of buying, adding funds and checking out was cool, but there is quite a lot of clicks involved, and you then have to kick off the download too, it's not automatic. I'd like to turn the beeps off too, sound effects are turned off for me in the XMB

Hmm, Street Fighter X Tekken isn't showing up on the UK vita store for me :(

Edit: Ok, reading this thread, I can see I'm not the only one with the issue.

Joke's on Sony, though. I was only going to buy it tonight as a bit of an impulse purchase. Will probably convince myself not to by the time it's live.

...you do know that the game doesn't actually come out in the UK until friday, right? So it won't be there at all until then.

Ahh, fair enough.
I just saw it listed in the OP as being on the store, so assumed it would be there.

I'll probably wait to get it in a sale or something at this point - only a week until I'll be occupied with NFS and AC:L
 
The lack of a "new this week" section is a real oversight in the new store.

If what you want is not on the main page you pretty much have to manually type it into search.


I would guess this is a clever way to start making money by offering better store placement and promotion on the store but its SCEE and they probably are not that smart about making money from PSN. Its probably just a giant mistake.

Mainland Europe gets games on wednesday so i guess technically it IS up in most of Europe. UK has to wait for Friday though, as we usually do with these things.

At least Assassin's Creed Liberation is out next wednesday, so we don't have to wait. Yay

I fully expect ACL to be a Friday UK release as well. As well as Smart As. Oh and Silent Hill: Book of Memories...

I have 1 month PS+ now. When I download Resident Evil 5 (or any other game from the sale) can I use them without Plus later?

I can't believe the EU store still isn't properly updated.

No, but you get them back when you resubscribe. Everything you buy at an discount you can keep.
