Do you have to purchase 1 episode or a whole season to get Confrontation Beta?

Im going to buy Qore, and the Battlefield demo should be sweet. Great update.

PSN: Lp47

yeah bout time! socom and battlefield

You get Calling All Cars! (Full Game) free with the 13 issues Qore subscription too.

that's too bad Rock Band has the new Disturbed songs and GH3 doesn't.....

great update :)

psn id: gingo.... really hope QORE comes to the UK but i cant see it doing so which is a shame as we speak english the same as america so there would be no point needing to get any languages changed and whatnot

im looking at the store and im not seein the updates...

let's hope our UK friends are able to enjoy Qore as well...

PSN: yungder

I'm also not seeing the updates, I guess they havn't updated it yet?

for some reason my store won't update?

no they havent updated yet but it should be VERY soon, and no you dont need the QORE year sub. for the ticket to the beta its just this first episode

yup, nothing is up.

I wish my store would update!!

So if the Socom Beta code comes with Qore then how do Europeans get their hands on a code? I live in Canada so I'm fine.

@16 EU isnt getting the beta (for now) unfortunatly.... edit: If you go over to socom.com and read the Dev Q&A 05 the last question asks "Will there be also an EU beta test?" and Seth (one of the dev's) replys "This is still TBD. However, we are working towards this."

@ 17, Ok thanks for clearing that up.

not on ps3 yet

Suck's I want that Socom beta code but I have never heard of  Qore

When dose it show up?

 

Got 5 bucks that says the s--t ain't workin'.  This is waaay later than usual.  Either that or they anticipate huge download volume (which has never been handled properly) and are trying to avoid looking bad by releasing it later in the day than usual (which won't work when dorks are willing to stay up just to see, for instance, if Home is released or something big event like that).

still w8ing

Still not up.  This system sucks, period.  The PS3 is a damned disaster.

everyone be patient...the store will be updated in an orderly fashion...

 

PSN:  yungder

Where is this update you speak of!???

a really god weekly update. three demos is always a good thing. try to spread them out more. a really amazing thing is if sony could garenty a new demo every week.

only 2 hours left before the update is late....hmmm....sorry folks but we have delayed todays update due to a management decision to pull all staff off of one important project and make them clean toilets and sinks instead....sorry about the delay lol lol lol cmon.....this is SONY.....this is the sony way.... cant wait. cant wait. cant wait.

awesome if i have card i will buy Qore lol

Qore is a nice deal but I won't bite unless I know I'm getting something worth my while, say early Home or LBP beta. 

called sony today. They told me they where out, but they are not. so i went to playstaion.com and it said they are not putting the updates out because they are not ready yet. they say some time this week. This is F@3King bullsh!t sony sucks monkey balls. and anyone know if they plan on updating the web browser any time soon

It was all a  dream!!

i rember when we got alot of freakin demos and PSN update was delayed a day Friday 6-6 the devils year lol tomorrow ps3 will raise The under world

My hypothesis -- they're having issues with Qore, so they haven't put the update up yet. Just a guess.

@Odium_Generis_Humani

You need to chill out dude. Its a disaster because the store isny updated? Please. Grow up dude.

i got the two packs from rockband since they have there on store but im still waiting for qore time

Same question as Draco (Post #1). Anyone know?

 

 

Where are the Upadates?

I am personally sick and tired of other companies especially Gametrailers, G4tv, etc for the way they have treated the PS3 and the poor report on its games.PSU has done a fine job in keeping us PS3 gamers informed about all thins PS3. But most of the other sites mainly show content for third party software for the xbox360 which is understandable because here in America it is leading in sales so Qore might be what i am looking for for all content for my PS3. Why should i care about video comparisons and listen to snotty remarks from underpaid gaming journalists. Not anymore because i got Qore. Anyway gaming is gaming.

 

Yeah it definately isn't showing up. pthhththth. sony= dissapointing me

i looked at the ps store and it didn't update for me anyone else have the problem

Nice Nascar '09 Demo and Battlefield but sadly I'll be in some MGS action in less than 6 days

@nominal266 (#38) i already answered that question if you read any of the comments... #13

Well crap, I was all ready to spend my $9.99 for Commando 3 (and possibly the $24.99 for Qore), but I guess it'll have to wait until I get home tomorrow night.

Here's a link to the Sony site which pretty much just states what #32 has said. blog.us.playstation.com/2008/06/05/playstation-store-update-37/

(@#43/13) Thanks,  i just usually jump around when reading posts.

DISTURBED! FTW!

im buying those right now.

if you go to the link from #45 and read the comments (from pages 11-29 so far) that it is taking some serious spammage... and alot of people are just complaining... come on people, for all you know, they could be releasing Home as a surprise! so just be thankful that were getting a decent update this time guys....

Oh my god the store is not updating!!!!  WTF they put out a socom beta and the store wont update!!!????   im going crazy!!!

Aaaaaannnnnnnnddd we're still waiting for the store to update.

 

Go take a look at the PS.blog it's got over 2100 comments just for this store update.

It' friday June 5 1 o'clock in the morning mountain time and still no store update, WTF! On top of that the store is slower than a snail trying to slither across the salt flats. If u ask me, this is no way to beat XBL. GET YOUR A**S ON THE BALL SONY!!!!!

3:03 right now. still no update. i'll be up all night being that school is out and my sleep schedule is alrighty screwed up. go to bed at 6 and wake up at 3.

Come on fellas, you all know Sony can't keep original release dates for anything involving the PS3. Crazy "New" Technology!!  It started before they even released the thing. 

Hmm, 12:09am Friday and the store still isn't updated. Sony can't even manage to get a store update done on time. I'm starting to see a trend here.

1:30 AM Pacific and it's updated.  1st things first. Download Battlefield : Bad Company

Great update. Gonna download Civilization Revolution demo, any idea when Qore is coming to Europe? I wan't the SOCOM Confrontation Beta!

@NightcrawleR

No, it is not because of one Thursday update and you know it.  The PS3 sucks.  You want me to recap the last 2 years?  Fine, I will do just that, my blind friend who likes to get ripped off...

*

I've had this thing since launch and all it has amounted to is a 25% version of Gran Turismo (that had no business costing $40), MLB The Show 08, Warhawk and Uncharted.  COD4 doesn't count because it was just as good on the other system. 

*

Delays, delays, DELAYS. 

*

Nothing works when it's first released. 

*

You guys were up all damned night for something that was just another way to nickel-and-dime you...and it wasn't even a game! 

*

Even SOCOM:C is a half-game.  GT:P and SOCOM, two huge 1st party games, are some half done, over-priced promises for something else. 

*

Heavenly Sword, Uncharted, too short. 

*

Bad ports populate the system (not DIRECTLY Sony's fault, but they still share some blame). 

*

The fact that it's better hardware than the competition is negated by the fact that NO ONE USES IT'S POWER.  Games are still in 720, and are buggy.

*

Too many Games take 4-5GB of space on my HDD.  WTF!

*

Where the H--- is Home?

*

Why did in-game XMB take so f----n' long?

*

It's still too expensive to adopt, everyone (by everyone, I mean developers) knows it.  EA, a crap company that cares only about money, are starting to maximize by NOT DEVELOPING ON IT.  Next blow?  Madden is an Xbox 360 exclusive.  Mark my words. (and you non-sports dorks don't bother talking about how you don't play it anyway.  Whether you play it or not, that would end the PS3 and you know it.)

*

So I repeat.  This thing has been a disaster from the start.  And this Early Adopter/Former Fanboy is getting a 360 TODAY so I can have a console that does what consoles are supposed to do...HAVE COOL THINGS RELEASED ON THEM TO HAVE FUN. 

*

There, is that enough reasoning for you?

finally its been updated i only madeaccount for us yesterday to get the civ rev demo s i not waitng for europe demo as i want to know if it good and wether i should pre order and it comes out next week

@Odium_Generis_Humani

The xbox360 is a disaster because it DOES break all the time. If i really have to play their “uber-cool” games, I can just buy them for my PC. If you are dumb enough to buy that outdated piece of crap, more power to you, but the PS3 will keep outselling the 360 worldwide because hardware is solid and so many people want to play MGS4, Littlebigplanet, GT5, SOCOM, God Of War3, FF13 etc.

Sure, kid.  You sound like me months ago.  And what kills me is that it's the exact same argument. 

*

1) Sorry to tell you guys this, but the 360 has gotten over the hardware woes since as far back a February.  It's just not the case anymore and you can't use it anymore.  Trust me, I've been paying attention.

*

2)  The 360 can (and has, virtually) fixed it's hardware issues but Sony's issue with developers making bad ports is going NOWHERE (just like Xbox1 Vs. PS2), and will plague the system for it's entire life.  The PS3 may take a lead but will never crush the 360 to the point where developers stop caring about how they have to dumb-down games for cross-platform prodcution.  In simpler terms for you dummies to understand, the PS3's power does not matter because the 360's install base is too big to ignore, whether it leads or not.  AND IT IS LEADING.  Not only that, but if the PS3 DOES last ten years (hah!), MS has already started another console, and what do you think is going to happen to the 6-year old PS3 against the Next-box?

*

3) Don't start with that listing of games garbage your dorks like to do.  I'm so sick of people who list a bunch of games that will come out in 2020 as a reason to stick with this bottle-necked machine.  GOW3 and FF13?  Give me a break.  Though it had a slow start as well, It didn't even take this long to get their predecessors (GT3 A-Spec and FFX) on the PS2!  LBP is the overrated elephant in the room.  Innovative?  Sure.  But SO WAS EYE OF JUDGEMENT, and I don' see that thing selling 5 million copies bro, sorry.  No game deserves that much hype.  People were all excited to plat GTA4, talking about how it was a 10 and such.  You know what everyone in my friends list was on it for 2, maybe 3 weeks.  Next thing you know the future Game of the Year with 100 hours of gameplay gave way and people went back to Warhawk and Call of Duty.  Same thing's gonna happen with Metal Gear.  I'm not knocking the games I mentioned, only pointing out that they only way to combat that is more games, which PS3 CERTAINLY DOES NOT HAVE AND WILL NOT HAVE FOR SOME TIME.  Look at Killzone being pushed back!  Sony knows that if they would have blown their load in Novemberm you're not looking at another game till next November. 

*

It's June!  Holiday 08 starts in 5 short months and the PS3 will be 2 years old.  2 years of waiting for games that AT BEST took 2 days to finish.  If Warner Bros. didn't save Blu-Ray in february, the PS3 would be dead, period.  I have it now, so I'll play MGS4.  After that....come what may.

Who cares if PS3 games don't appeal to you. I don't want a 360 because it's the most unreliable piece of hardware and I have a PC that can play most of the 360's 'exclusives'. Also, the main problem for MS is a lack of imagination. You couldn't really see them coming up with games like ICO, or a concept for changing the way video games are played like EyeToy. This is the one of the reasons why MS can't be successful in Japan and Europe.

@Odium. I'm just gonna say this. You're not a very bright person are you. Almost all of your points you made against the ps3 is almsot pointless. So the PS3 sucks because devs choose not to develop for it first and then port it over to the 360? Do you even know why games like MGS4 and Crysis will not be on the 360?? Its because the devs said that these games arent even possible on the 360. I'd love to see a 50gb game run on a 360. And we all know Crysis is a game thats in a league of its own. And I said it once and I'll say it again/ I'll never respect a company who produces a game console that has a 33% failure. That to me is a joke, and they are the laughing stock of the gaming industry.

I'm bright enough to know that Sony's strung you along for 18 months or so...

Sure my points don't make sense.  Suuuuuure they don't.  Keep telling yourself that.  I don't have to argue the point anymore because you know I'm right.  You point to the future of what MIGHT happen.  I have what's hapening NOW.  I have some more news for you.  NG4 just reported that firmware update 2.40 is DELAYED.  Not coming 'til July. Sorry.  So I guess you can add another month to my first sentence.(and No, I didn't make that up).  There was never any garauntee that it had in-game XMB on it, but I guess you won't find out, will you?  I just got home with my new 360.  You fellas try to have fun on this nothing system with nothing on it.

HAHAHAHA OMG You guys think you know it alll everything. why is japan play PS3 more than 360 ask that one why is UK playing PS3 more then 360. Oh i know Were i live America They think they know it all why would u Call the PS3 a nothing system. And why would u make that up about in GAm XMB, this happened all ready before. if you guys thought about it PSN is more succecfull then 360 because PSN has 3 diffrent servers USA UK and Japan. i saw all of them and i relized that those servers are completly diffrent. and i thought to my self Oh i understand why it took an extra day to get stuff to america because you guys dont care about PS3 UK does. Buy a PS3 and then tell ur friends to buy one then Sony will relize wow look at this jump lets look at USA more then UK. But nooo i will wait for something to happen, LOSERS have fun with ur something system ill have fun with my nothing system. which doesnt have a wedding ring thats red. LOSERS

@Odium_Generis_Humani damn dog you must dont have life. if you sit and wait in front of the tv and game for a update all day. then conplain about how you check all day then its this and that about sony. if anit there go get some p^$$y thats all ways better then some game or go make some money thats all ways better then both.

Perhaps you guys should get a job, get a girlfriend, get a LIFE! MAN, 65 posts and more than half of those were complaints about an upgrade not releasing on time. Wow. I'll admit when I got home from work I was a little dissapointed about it not being up, but I'm not gonna gripe and B!tch like it's the end of the world. Geez, take it easy. Sure, Sony may not be on top of thier game right now, but I'm still giving them the benefit of the doubt. Give it another few months and the PS3 will be right where we want it to be. In the mean time, find something else to occupy your time rather than filling the internet with you ramblings. (I'm looking at you, Odium!)

I ALREADY SAID THIS IS NOT JUST ABOUT THE UPDATE.  IF YOU'RE GONG TO BASH SOMEONE, AT LEAST READ THE POSTS, KID.

*

...AND Not that I owe anyone on here anything, but just to show you that not everyone on these message boards are like you:

I'm 33 years old, married, home owner, not wealthy but I have done very well (wealthy = my money works for me, I still have a career), by the way...that's CAREER, not job.  Former soldier (1998-2005), combat vet, and still work for the US government.  I did not stay here all day waiting for this update, I didn't not stay up all night waiting for it, either. 

*

So kids, that's a giant F-you to everyone that assumes that I'm like them.  I may have money, but that doesn't mean I like to throw away $600 on crap.  AS FAR AS HAVING A LIFE, IF YOU KIDS ACHIEVE HALF OF WHAT I DIDN'T TELL YOU ABOUT, YOU SHOULD BE SO LUCKY.

*

Next, I'd like to point out that all of you keep attacking me instead of acknowledging how I nailed the crapstation 3 to the wall.  I'm still RIGHT ON ALL COUNTS.  That must hurt.  You can call me all the names you want, everytime you do it (while ignoring the fact that you paid $400 - $600 for a paperweight) you prove that you are desperate for a comeback.  

* 

So what's next?  You called me dumb, and that's obviously wrong.  You assumed I was some pimply-face kid (like you) and you're wrong there too.  What do you have to say now?

Well, d@mn. If you are a 33 old married home owner then get off the internet! Go mow your lawn, man! Go make love to your wife! Don't waste your fading youth on trash talking with kids and teens! Man! I'm not a kid, but I'm not in my thirties but I must say you don't seem to act your age maturity wise. I don't have a job either, I own a business, and I'm only 23. I don't yet own my own house, but hopefully I will this year. Cheers on making your money work for you and not the other way around. I respect that and I'm trying to make that a reality in my own life. But please, enough of this bickering back and forth, eh? Enjoy your 360, I'll enjoy MGS4 next week, and everyone GROW UP!

No one in the industry (expect MS of course) thinks the 360 stands any hope of coming in anything but a distant last place this generation. Worldwide PS3 has been pretty easily outselling xbox 360 week after week after week after week. How is Xbox 360 going to keep its lead? With Gears of War 2? That's not enough. MS's consoles will never win. As soon as the Xbox came out, my impression was that it was nothing more than a repackaged Intel based PC. Also consider the only part of the world that really buys xbox's is the US and that just = FAIL.

@genie22

I noticed you replied to one of my other comments, and apparently you don't like it when somebody points out obvious problems with something. You think I'm an "xbot" because I criticized Sony for canning 2 first party exclusive, and taking forever and a day to release in game xmb. Wake up man, we as PS3 owners have the right to be upset when we invest in a product and that product consistently lowers our expectations. I don't hate the PS3! I own one, and I like it. But it doesn't mean I won't give criticism when its completely obvious that we have a right to be upset.  You seem to be in bed with Sony or something, because I also like how your talking about the xbox = fail. Funny because last time I checked, every multi platform game that's released sells better on 360(worldwide). I own  both consoles like I said, so I buy games accordingly. The reality is that the 360 has ALREADY won this "console war" you speak of. When MS releases their "next box" in 2010, there goes Sony's 10 year plan. I'm not hating on the PS3, I'm just telling you the truth. Besides, who cares who "wins"? Just have fun with what you got. Although I think it would suck if all I owned was the PS3. You are right about the PC though, alot of 360's exclusives eventually launch on the pc. It's a good thing, but PC games never sell as well as the console versions.
