If you haven't watched them, and really like the Sci-Fi/Horror genre in particular I highly recommend you download the Dead Space Animated Comics videos and watch them. They are particularly scary and well done.

I'm curious about the DS animated movie that is supposed to come out along side the game.

It wasn't letting me add funds, so I kept trying to re enter my card info, and now it's stopped letting me change it at all

I'd post an angry smiley but it seems I can only be happy and laugh

Nice diverse line-up this week, but new games are lacking demos!

We need day one demos for PSN shit Chony! Wipeout HD and that Gineon game or whatever the fudge it is.

Grabbing The Cult DLC (YOU SHOULD TOO, I WANT MOAR CULT IN ROCKBAND!), Stone Roses DLC, Tits Calibur 4 customization unlock code, Tits Calibur Wallpapers, and Tits Raider Underworld video.

nom nom nom tasty week!

Have a fun! Enjoy!
Anyone knows if Burnout Paradise PSN is compatible with the save file created with the disc version? Also, is the EU store one multilanguage?

Ok so I have two quick questions that I hope someone will be able to answer.

a) WTF do I have to do to turn on background downloading? Downloads only EVER make progress if I'm sitting in the XBM doing nothing. Anytime I'm doing anything the downloads stop. Help me fix this :(

b) Can we no longer add exact amounts to the wallet when making a purchase? Trying to buy Moving Pictures and it wants me to add 5.00 when it only needs 2.80$ more to make the purchase :(

a) Define "anything". It should work even in games (that do not use internet connection)

b) It was never possible to add exact amount to the wallet IIRC.

A.Make sure the game you are playing isn't online or online enabled by default. Like when I play Madden/Mercenairies it connects to EA servers when the game starts and stops all bg downloading.

B. You are only allowed exact funds over 5$.

a) That's completely subjective. Some programs do it while Internetting, some don't. Not all games support it, sadly.

b) Anything over $5 you can get for exact change.

Basically it's:
$5.00
Exact Change
$10
$20
$50
etc...

ok I knew I could add exact amounts to my wallet, just forgot about the 5$ fee.

And so I guess as Rockband is basically the only game I've been playing for the past 3 or 4 months that would explain why downloads never work (except that movies stopped the downloads too :| )

So Japan gets Angel Love Online instead of Wipeout HD? FFS Sony, sort this shit out. No wonder people in Japan aren't buying the hardware.

Okay I have to say Buzz is awesome.
Click to expand...

I should've waited for Buzz! before I bought Jeopardy!. Now I feel I must take advantage of the 15 dollars I wasted before I can feel content with the purchase. :(

Bad case of buyer's remorse. My anticipation for a trivia game deceived me.

Holy shit Megaman 9!

Played the demo and was really enjoying the gameplay and the challenge. However, restarting at the damn beginning every time completely ruins the experience for me. Admittedly, I only made it to the third elephant on my last life but I don't have time for this game's bullshit. Not to mention that I don't think it will ever be possible to accomplish a single challenge.

This game, I guess, is not for me but that's frustrating because it could have been. Powered Up is a much better game than this.

Partially correct, dear sir. Just add the items to your cart, then at check out, it will ask if you wish to charge the exact total. But the minimum charge is $5, since there is a credit card charge fee that Sony absorbs per transaction, like every other store/company/strip club...

BTW, remote play outside of the house is probably recockulous, and with wipeout HD I imagine that you must be clairvoyant since the delay in BC:R all but killed that feature for me.

T'was a joke. :D

I figured it was such a ridiculous idea that no one could take me too seriously. I played it too straight, though. :lol

Don't know if it's been mentioned yet but Qore episode 5 will have Fallout 3, Dead Space, Resident Evil 5, and Shaun White Snowboarding. No mention of what downloads.

Three outta four ain't bad. We'll see if they step up and provide the unique info for once.

They went totally cuckoo with the audio. During the intro, when the phone rings, the bass track in the music switches off ... because this sound hardware only supports three simultaneous channels, obviously.

No mention of a beta or demo? Hmm, but at least the video content for this issue sounds really good.

I've got the European version of Buzz. Anyone know if I get the US content if it will work?
Click to expand...
All DLC (except SingStar) is region-locked to the disc. It searches for and recognises DLC based on the serial code (eg, Buzz! TV US = BCUS-98145)

Only reason SingStar isn't region locked is because it needs to be cross-compatible across different volumes, so doesn't use the serial method.

Anyone know a site where I can buy US PSN points online? (besides Sony, I mean, like an online store that will give me the code immediately).

NBA 09 The Inside is not a good game. I mean, it's a little better than last year, but this isn't a surprise. I'm finding Live to be fun to play this year, and 2k is scaring me by not releasing a demo yet...

So has anyone that's familiar with Japanese tried that Angel Online MMORPG yet? I couldn't figure out the registration process by blindly entering info like I usually do, and when I cancelled out, it did an update, and sent me to the login screen. Very free PC mmo-esque, in terms of the login prompt.

They are B&M only, mostly because a store can't sell PSN Cards unless SCEA sets it up for a store to activate them at the register (and they are all B&M). Online retailers which sell the cards don't carry them (I have a feeling they never will, but I could be wrong).

Wipeout HD freezes for me, so I'll have to stick to playing offline. :(

I kind of like it, but prefer Live. There are some things it does right (like mapping R1 as the Turbo instead of R2). I still feel the game needs to have the crowd into it more and the shooting could use an overhaul (two seasons ago, I found the shooting to be pretty good). The amount of features NBA 09 has is pretty good I'll have to admit (like gaining experience, The Life Mode, Trophies, etc.).

Seriously! Fuck that game and fuck people trumpeting "old school gaming." Megaman 1 on the NES is the first video game I ever played when I was around 5 years old.

Where was the Mega Man demo on PSN? I looked all over the store last night and could only find the full game -- which I ended up buying, and am already about to throw the controller out the window.

I should just disconnect the PS3 from my router because it's encouraging me to spend money on these downloads I never like.

It was on the main latest page on the UK PSN (Although quite a way from the full game).
