PAIN Nigel Character ($0.99)
Meet the newest downloadable character Nigel, a British punk so full of rage that the only thing he doesn't hate is PAIN, and he hates the fact that he doesn't hate it. He's brassed off and ready to bang his head into whatever and whoever gets in his way (watch out for those spikes!). Well, it sounds like he's asking for for it, so give him a launch…and make it a PAINful one.

I missed that there were more stuff if you click the link (:

I would like some more trailers too.. and I mean game companies pray for the attention of gamers especially Sony and here they have millions of gamers coming to the PSN store as soon as an update drops..? and they don't take advantages of that..?

This is a great time to put some videos up about the PS3 and show things they are working on that will be at E3 - Great time to take us behind the scenes of God Of War III or get feedback on what people would like from the store.

-I for one would love to see how GT5 is coming along... can we get something like PlaystationTV -(a game channel show that talks about everything PS3, from games to news to behind the scene looks... I for one would watch it every Thursday. -as everyone else probably would too.

It just seems to me they are not handling it well, this internet explosion that exist in gaming right now. And so much more could be done here.

Quick edit dude lol

EDIT: Even if this update is looked upon as dismal,I know that 2.40 is coming pretty soon. So, they get a pass from me this week. After the firmware release is another story.

[Crazyglues]

yeah know they should have had the Far Cry 2 trailer or video feed from the Ubisoft days... that would have been really cool to see in Hi-Def..

and Hawx... that one too.. I think it's a big mistake not trying to get those videos up early, considering how amazing the game is looking..

[Johnny Cullen]

Wow, for once, it looks like the European Store got the better update.

[Polluted]

Technically it did, but it's all stuff that the other stores got already.

[BSigel81]

This seems like a pretty good update to me, I don't know if everyone is just reading this page. But, if you click the link you will see more stuff offered today

[castags]

bummer

[SmokeyMcBear]

2 demos... and people are complaining.. sheesh

[juuken]

They want PS1 classics. I swear, I dread going to that blog sometimes.

[The L3gend]

I just downloaded the Playstation Network Theme released in todays store update and......i kinda like it...its kinda plain..buttt..def gives it that Playstation network pride type feel...you guys should check it out...

[Silogon]

I got an e mail from Square and it says the following

So, don't get your hopes up for any of their games in America. Just another lame Sony doing. This update was pretty bad, but they all are anymore.

I'm about ready to visit the store once every 3 months so I can be suprised, maybe. < I doubt it though.

[cool8]

did you get that?

[Silogon]

I got my ways. It is a real e-mail I just received earlier today and it was in response to them putting up Final Fantasy 9, Xenogears, Einhander and a few other games on the us psn.

Sadly, this is what was sent back.

[legendkilla]

not really buying that...

[Silogon]

Alright, whatever man. That is a real e-mail what the hell does it take around here for you all to believe that things are not the shade of pink you all see through those rose colored glasses.

[Adamalicious]

That "email" clearly says "those particular titles" but doesn't say which. It also says that they are focused on numerous other titles that have been announced for North America. But you say "So, don't get your hopes up for any of their games in America."

Get a life dude. Oh, and enjoy your Gamer Zone ban - I can just feel it coming.

P.S. Off topic much?

[Silogon]

You can try to sugar coat things all you want. the e-mail is real, the games asked about were Final Fantasy 9, Einhander, Xenogears, Final Fantasy 7 and a host of others. As I said, try to convicne yourself for something more or better but reality is what I am talking about and have been since I came here.

I don't choose sides on consoles. I don't say something is good because it's on a console I prefer and I don't make up news and stats to make my console of choice seem better than it is.

I've been kicked over into the open zone before and that's fine with me if it means speaking the truth.

[Polluted]

I believe you about the e-mail. I used to have a job answering questions like that for a telecom company. It looks like a generic "no announcements have been made" answer. Doesn't mean they won't bring them to the states. We used to have to tell people who wanted to know if we were getting the iphone that no announcements have been made and they should keep checking the website. That was all a load of BS of course so keep your hopes up.

[Xemnas]

damnit PSN guy or lady put some good stuff on the psn man damnit stop with the Guitar Hero and rock band BS c'mon.

[The Goulet]

PAIN - everything which is WRONG with downloadable games. Don't charge $10 for a downloadable game then come out with 20 different downloadable characters that cost me $1 each. Just include them in the final game you CHEAP PIECES of SH|T!!!! It's not a bad game but not worth the $10 price tag let alone all these stupid add-ons for it. Sick of developers trying to rip gamers off for every nickle and dime.

I'm amazed the US has only just got the Everybody's golf demo, its been on the EU store for months now. Great game

[SonySoldierEternaL]

I look forward to trying out the Top Spin 3 demo

[blackblades]

I was hoping for some ps1 games this thusday since japan got alot of them.

[TheWickedOne]

Glad they finally put up the Hot Shot Demo. And free GH3 content is always welcome.

[Booourns]

Damn gamers sure like to complain about everything nowadays. I might be from the old school but damn its all wahhh wahh wahh no PS1 classics or something else just to bash. I guess those are the times, no patience and if you dont get what you want you just complain, whine and b*tch about everything

Its getting quite ridiculous the amount of wining by these gamers nowadays. I know Sony is working hard to try to get these games on the PSN. The only reason they are not up is because of licensing issues. Hopefully they can work everything out so ppl in all regions can enjoy the fun.

In the meanwhile I will enjoy the demos they have up this week and the other games that I have currently in my collection

[KarateExplosion]

I cant believe you said we have no patience... Think how long we have been waiting. Ive been waiting for another one since wild arms came out. Tell me I have no patience.

[Rusted]

Is a regular update, what a hell do you guys want?! geez...
