Blog post is up.

[lunch]

Not much this week, but I suppose I'll go ahead and preorder Sound Shapes.

 

[corporate cheerleader]

are any of them top down shooters? Know what to expect from your genre of game.

Lara Croft GoL looks amazing and that is $15 (I think.)

 

[sikkinixx]

vita games? Lol

So sad :-( barren wasteland

 

[KalBalboa]

That War of the Monsters retrospective post was a fun read. I'm going to have to pick that up, so to speak, tonight.

Scouting Report ($0.99) – Gain the competitive advantage by increasing your insights into your opponents stats before every online match begins with the Scouting Report!

Wow.

 

[The Grim Heaper]

those discounts and sales are insane

Oh, that's great.

I'll look into this, but his best bet is to contact CS for immediate help. But if there's a larger issue that's occurring, I'll ask the Store Ops team to get on it

At least two of us are having the problem, so it's not just one dude. And CS was supposed to call me back 80 minutes ago... nothing.

 

[spats]

Maybe they shouldn't announce games before they're sure they can put them up on the store?

 

[mochuuu]

yeah, everything was set to go on this one, but at the last minute, there was an audio track that was identified as not being cleared to use. Rockstar is all over it, and we're working with them to get this version of GTA 3 on PSN asap.

 

[Brazil]

Wow, found one set of wrestlers almost instantly. Dude, you're slipping.

Spoiler

One is in the sony logo on the gamepad, and I think there's another on the guy's left leg

It's hard to hide the wrestlers in RL photos, haha.

While you're here Check on Virtua Fighter 5 as well.

Grace Chen learned how to nicely format a blog post on WordPress. Cool.

 

[Plinko]

Will buy War of the Monsters.

See, Sony? Release a good PS2 classic, I buy it. You're sitting on a TON of good ones.

 

[DMeisterJ]

Christina Lee and PULSE presented by the PlayStation Network are still MIA.

mm hmm.

Week 4.

I shall inquire on Twitter

I see, it's nice to know why it was pulled. I just remembered what a tangled mess of licenses the GTA games must be. You propably can't speak for SCEE, but I really hope Europe gets this game too.

I can't keep on living without seeing Christina-hime's radiant smile.

 

[Toki767]

So wait, we can't preorder Sound Shapes on the Vita?

 

[KalBalboa]

Which first-party ones are you waiting for? Most PS2 games I'd want are either on PSN or HD'd.

 

[Wario64]

So wait, we can't preorder Sound Shapes on the Vita?

Nope cause there's no themes for Vita, lol

 

[waypoetic]

Sweet! Transformers demo! Will get.

 

[Toki767]

Just so strange that they're treating Sound Shapes like it was a PS3 game all along and is getting a Vita port rather than the other way around.

glad you appreciate it =)

And update the store on time

Spoiler

with maybe one-two exceptions over the past 4-6 months

*faints*

Maybe now Kass can update the OP with "Updates at 2PM EST" instead of "Updates whenever Grace Chen feels like it"

 

[waypoetic]

glad you appreciate it =)

Wait... Grace? Nah.

 

[pharmboy044]

glad you appreciate it =)

You guys have been doing a really good job with the past few store updates. Keep it up. Also, congrats on the new free agent pick ups.

 

[jvm]

Timely updates are cool. Now we need good solid commentary on the stuff that's new.

Downloading Expendables and Transformers right now.

 

[StuBurns]

I take it if you buy CS:GO on PSN, you don't get it on Steam this time?

 

[Wario64]

Nope

 

[StuBurns]

Nope

Makes sense, they've already sold Steam on a few PS3ers, no need to keep up that sweet bargain fun.

Scouting Report ($0.99) – Gain the competitive advantage by increasing your insights into your opponents stats before every online match begins with the Scouting Report!

Wow.

What's this for?

 

[spats]

What's this for?

Bellator MMA Onslaught.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

SCEE is having a summer sale

Fix this shit, SCEA!

 

[ULTROS!]

I hope Haunting Ground comes out next week.

 

[Benedict]

Might be a bigger problem on your side according to this:

As I said before, it's a glitch. Those that download a trial and then download a full copy, the system may not know that. 1 hr trials expire after 365 days, which is why everyone is facing the problem exactly one year later.

 

[spats]

Fix this shit, SCEA!

Don't worry, it'll be something like 20% off Elefunk and 30% off Piyotama.

Annnnd the crunchyroll app just had all its menu assets turn into warped static, turn black and then freeze my system. Also apparently only in 480p.

This is kind of not a good app.

Wait, ChrunchyRoll is 480p only?

*cancels pre-order download*

Thank you for telling me why I shouldn't download it.

On the whole the interface is pretty alright IMO and when it works it's pretty slick in how easy it is to switch from episode to episode and pick up a series straight from you're queue. I like the interface more than Netflix.

That being said though, the previous comment only applies if the app is working haha. Also, No, none of the videos I loaded appeared to be in anything that resembled being more than 480p =/ which is kind of a massive bummer as a subscriber.

You sure about that? Maybe it starts on low-res and buffers up to high-res.

Others need to try this and provide their field report.

I'll give it another shot! Part of the problem is that it also doesn't tell you what the quality of the stream is. It's been running for around 5 minutes now and it's still fairly compressed. Certainly doesn't look HD. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

On another note, don't try to look up the TOS in the app as that seems to have borked my system again.

 

[NeoRausch]

Any word on euro DYAD-date?

 

[Zia]

Has anyone seen the Sound Shapes them yet?

 

[Tizoc]

No sales, price drops or bundles this week?

 

[netguy503]

Has anyone seen the Sound Shapes them yet?

huh?

 

[Toki767]

huh?

He probably meant the theme you get for preordering.

 

[mochuuu]

Has anyone seen the Sound Shapes them yet?

preorder is up, but not the game. oh and preorder is only on ps3 (includes vita version of course); but of course you can snag the game on vita or ps3 next week.

edit: nm, realized you were talking about the theme =)

 

[netguy503]

oh i see he just forgot the extra e, lol
