Playstation Store 01/14/10

Man, and I thought Nintendo had incompetent people running the VC.

With Sony and PSN updates, I stand corrected. Why don't we have Vagrant Story yet?
 
Must get Lunar demo!!

Jesus, I really want to comment, but unfortunately I know it’s going to fall on absolutely deaf ears.

1. AVATARS ARE FREAKING TINY PNG IMAGES. WHAT IS REALLY YOUR PROBLEM GETTING THESE OUT?! A 13 YEAR OLD WITH PHOTOSHOP COULD PUMP THEM OUT A MILE A MINUTE…WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?

2. WHY DO YOU INSIST ON BUMPING CATEGORIES? NO NEW MGS CONTENT, NO NEW AVATARS, NO NEW PREMIUM THEMES. Sorry for using all caps, but honestly, WHO are you leaving in charge, and WHY? The direction (or lack there of) of your Store is absolutely appalling.

I’m so disappointed that I was BANNED from NeoGAF permanently for being a “fanboy”. Disappoint me some more. Please.

wat? :lol

Downloading Lunar demo, and that's it. I was hoping on atleast a few price drops, or a sale for ___ publisher's PSP games. But meh.

Not the store update you're looking for?

:bow

He was banned nearly two years ago. Why is he bringing it up again? WTF. :|
 
Playing Lunar demo now....and yep its the same 15+ year old game. Slightly prettier, the redrawn art is nice, but there is little animation on the bitmap backgrounds. Battles play out similarly, just again more animation and nicer looking.

About the only real noticeable change is the lack of overworld. Instead of traveling around manually from destination, you just choose a location on a map. Music is high quality, anime sequences seem identical to the 32-bit version, even recropping to 4:3 when they appear.

So yea, it's Lunar...slightly prettier.

People complaing about no Hustle Kings don't like to read the thread.

2 weeks people.

TWO WEEKS?!

...okay I can live with that :lol

Side note: Has Qore actually been "worth it" this year? I subscribed initially for the first year, and didn't renew...am I missing anything?
 
Wow what the hell is happening at Sony's HQ? The only thing remotely interesting this week is the lunar demo... No psone classic and Luxor PSP? Last year they were going so well, with the REs, DC, FF8. *SIGH*

I can read it
totally missed the fact that it had been dated for the USA though... I skim over lots of text :(
but that doesn't mean I shouldn't be able to express my discontent with a horrible update :(

I just want to be able to try it since the other pool game that came out not too long ago was pure crap.

Short answer: No.

Long Answer: NOOOOOOOOOO.
 
...Just incase I needed any more proof of sony dropping the ball on the PSPGo, Im given another pisspoor PSP store update.

This.

Maybe instead of giving out goodies via Qore, they'll just save them for the "premium service" members in the future. Sucks though. We have got themes and 2 betas I think, for the last half of last year.

Sony really needs to stop making Thursday the update day. Spread that content out like every other place.

Uh, what? All three console manufacturers have days. Wii/DS is on Monday, Xbox is basically on Wednesday (although DLC can come out any day) and PSN is Thursday. It's a nice schedule for me actually, makes me check every week and get excited (and then crushed) each time a weekly update is coming.
 
when does the date expire on that "700 games at launch" Kaz gem?

pretty depressing stuff, my Go is basically my Everyboys Golf box
 
How flippin hard is it to flippin take an image and make it the size of a flippin avatar!?

SONY, DO YOU WANT MY MONEY!? DO YOU!? THEN TAKE 2 MINUTES AND PUMP OUT THE AVATARS YOU FLIPPIN GODDAMN IDIOTS.

XSeed put out a PR for the Valhalla Knights 2: Battle Stance for PSN, coming next week.

I hated VK2 (while I loved the first), but the simple addition of warp points will probably make me buy it.

Purely out of curiosity, how much will you pay for an avatar?
 
This is certainly a weak update overall, but I was happy to see that the Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 table was finally released for Zen Pinball. I got that, and while I was in a pinball kind of mood, also snagged the Pinball Heroes bundle for PSP which was released last week (all 4 currently available tables together for $9.99). Now I'm just waiting for Pinball Dreams (part of the Minis series) to be released over here.
 
still no darksiders demo. seriously? do any of these publishers think their games are going to stand a chance next to the biggies without at least putting a demo out?

hell, release the demos right after the game releases if you have to. my money's tight right now and i, like other people this quarter, need to be sure before we throw down $60 on ANYthing really.

lol I opened the store and thought the update was late or something or hadn't gone up yet:lol
Me too. I had to look for a second to find the new stuff. Why is pulse the first item? Why is Metal Gear Solid at the top? Why is Qore up there? If you are going to do one update a week then the new releases should be the things that came out that week.
 
I'm stunned there is zero post-Christmas push for PSP content, and the vast majority of the PSP content on PSN is already comically overpriced. It's not like I have unrealistic standards, I am more than willing to buy stuff for my Go, but this is just bad.
