Damn it, you win Sony.

You'll get my 3 dollars for that Naruto demo.

[fusionboxer]

It's the fact that your getting some news exclusives, cool videos, exclusive demos, beta invites, and more.

Also I would just pay for the annual sub because this year might be the best set of qore issues. Issue 1 included socom confrontation news and a beta download whenever it comes, and issue 2 has Resistance 2 exclusives and that Naruto demo.

If each ep comes with something cool then you might end up paying 2.99 each month for a year which costs more then the sub. 25 or something for the sub or a total of 30 something.

[Oner]

I wonder how many people will purchase this if a LittleBigPlanet beta is offered?....makes you think huh? I am just glad I got my annual.

[Oner]

Siligon "states" ~

"Learn to tell the real truth, Rowboat. You buy 1 episode of Qore, it does nothing. You can't just buy the episode with the beta attached to it and expect to be in the beta. you have to buy the full 1 year sub to get the beta invites.

Don't sugar coat ***** for sony."

Yet all these sites as well as SONY & THE SOCOM DEVS say the single episode DO apply to betas...Here's THE REAL TRUTH

"For example, the first episode will give you access to the SOCOM: Confrontation beta when it goes live."

"It’s definitely worth a ONE TIME BUY....For 3 Bucks you can have your spot in the SOCOM Confrontation OPEN Beta"

"Only the June issue is going to feature Confrontation. Get that and you'll be good!.....All you need is the June issue of Qore." ~ THIS IS RIGHT FROM THE ACTUAL SOCOM WEBSITE!

It's simply amazing the lengths an immature, biased, fanboy, fake gamer will go through to spread lies! If you can't appreciate ALL systems for their games you really need to get off this and other sites. Utterly & Truly damned pathetic when you see people for what they really are....

Oh and if you don't "get it", I'll make it totally clear. You need to check yourself since you state "Learn to tell the real truth"...you honestly have no credibility and that shows your weak character as a person. Lets see if you are man enough to appologize/admit you are wrong (as usual) or rant and rave while trying to deflect responsibility or some other BS. I'm guessing it will be the latter.

[Armyless]

It's pretty obvious he's not interested in supporting the gaming community. In fact, he's hellbent on making sure it sucks.

[El_Colombiano]

Its a shame people are supporting delayed demos...

[Mikelarry]

a shame ppl always want FREE all the time. some ppl have to make money for the service they provide. if you dont like it dont pay for it and w8 till they are offered for free

[El_Colombiano]

Thank you for proving my point. What a world we live in. Paying somebody to advertise their game to us...ever thought of that Mikelarry, or did your logic stop at "I needz 2 has teh uber demo!"...

EDIT: @ RecSpec: The $3 isn't the problem for anybody (hopefully), its the fact that you (and others) are giving Sony money towards a demonstration that is strictly made to advertise the game being sold on their platform!

EDIT 2: So you would pay a company money to advertise to you?

By your logic, we should all send in money to Sony so they can pay for advertisements that we watch on TV...?

[RecSpec]

Well, 3 dollars is a drop in the bucket for me, heck, not just me, practically anyone with a job.

Edit: I'm fine with giving Sony money to "advertise." It beats giving it to a fast food place where the punk working there scratched himself before making your food.

Besides, if you buy a product from ANYONE, you are just paying money to advertise. Unless all your clothes are blank, you are a walking billboard.

[fenderputty]

I totally get your point man.

People pay for magazines though. That's basically the same thing. There's ton's and ton's of adds there as well. I don't subscribe to either though. See why I get your point? lol

I'm just saying this isn't something to be shocked at.

[RecSpec]

I am happy with buying Qore.
Can't you be happy that you DIDN'T buy it?

So by buying Qore I pay Sony to advertise to me. By buying a steak, I pay to have a cow killed. By buying gas for my car, I am contributing to global warming.

See what happens when you look into things too much?

[El_Colombiano]

Ah you've straighed off too far....seems you confused yourself. No matter, we're done with this either way.

And yes, I am happy I didn't buy Qore. I never said I wasn't.

[ChrisGTR1]

exactly... ii cant beleive the sony fanboys are acutally dissagreeing to that. what ever happend to 'hahahaha PSN is soo much better than live cause its free!!' to now.. "a shame ppl always want FREE all the time"

[Mikelarry]

but psn is still free. qore is just piggy backing of psn to get consumers. qore hasnt replaced psn

[El_Colombiano]

Oh check this hypocrite out! Look kid, just in case you forgot, the money your parents pay towards Microsoft for your Gold membership is supporting the same concept. And just in case your feeble little mind forgot, the PSN is better than XBL.

[Mikelarry]

is in the view download of the store. for ppl who are looking for it and dont know where it is

[Surfman]

thanks

[juuken]

Very nice update!

[BLUR111]

Wow juuken you done playing all your games??... since you comment like every fucn article

[juuken]

Wow, you're posting here as well! As a 360 owner...why aren't you playing your many, many games?

Don't start.

[meepmoopmeep]

juuken, the in-voice Live chat seemed to get you to lose 3 bubbles in 2 days!

*sigh*

don't worry, i gotch your back

[Cusco]

What happens if you Press L2 haha

Also, how is the Naruto demo. I don't see how any studio can top what they are doing with the animation in this game. The first time I watched it I mistook it for the real thing.

[RecSpec]

Death Orb Ressurection

Now with multiplayer!

[-Maverick-]

Sweet. Resistance 2 and Insmoniac FTW!!!!

[Homicide]

Downloaded the Valkyria Chronicles trailer. Looks beautiful on the TV.

[meepmoopmeep]

awesomeness... love me some more trailers in HD

[SacT0wnF1n3st]

Can anyone tell me where is Qore episode 2?

Thanks.

[Mikelarry]

@ comment 3

[Pain]

money from CC ($12 ish~ bucks) has to be spent since PSN cards r out.

[byeGollum]

as much as we love our precious, why do they make her look so bad by not havin EUrope having something like Qore :( ... *Dont worry ill Take Care of You *Hugs His Ps3*

[Mikelarry]

from europe hasnt stopped me from getting qore

[RecSpec]

The Naruto demo was awesome! Not exactly sure if it can hang with the other fighting juggernauts coming out soon, but it's pretty fun, especially if you are a fan.

[sephy 9 2 5]

content looks pretty damn good actually. Surprised.

[PirateThom]

The Valkyria Chronicles teaser just convinced me to throw down a pre-order. Yes, plz.

[Baka-akaB]

Dont care if its hypocrisy in regard of the free PSN thing or ... but i do know i'd pay 3 dollars (especially when it cost so little in euro right now) for a Cyberconnect 2 naruto game's advance demo . i'm that much of a naruto and cyberconnect2 fan .
That and a few other things like LBP beta .

[Tarasque]

Hmmm......How come i don't see the new Qore episode? I bought annual subscription. I see all the other new update's.

[Tarasque]

Man people like disagreeing just to be disagreeing. Ask a question and you get a disagree nice, and people wonder why i fight with sonyboy's.

[Wakka_]

Praise be to Yevon.

[JohnnyMann420]

Is it long?

I may get Qore just for this. Perhaps I will be surprised with the other sh*t that's included.

[Baka-akaB]

dunno yet , dling July's Qore right now and only at 75%

[Old Snake]

No news on the update?

[Baka-akaB]

I assumed Qore from july was the mag+ the demo given it's size (1750 mo) and it being my first purchase of Qore . But it gives you the access to naruto download(558mo) inside the magazine (pro tips euro pals connect yourself to yourUS accoutn or it wont launch the naruto download)

[Lou-Cipher]

I cant seem to find out how to download Qore July edition either. I paid for full year last month, but cant seem to find the download?

I have a $1.00 reward for anyone who can help. (or at least a Thank You)

[Baka-akaB]

Maybe it's already added to you download list (in the store download area) ?

[Lou-Cipher]

Good I dont owe anyone a dollar. If you paid for the full subsciption,and are having problems downloadind july qore, just go to view downloads at the top of the PS store. Then go and find where you downloaded the june episode, and it will be updated for july.

[Baka-akaB]

Naruto is as expected fricking awesome !
It's fast paced , intuitive , as beautiful as shown so far and even more .

They managed to refine their system from narutimate heroes , while still simplifying it .

Simply put , its already imo the best anime game ever made .

Namco should also license their engine already for a future tales of . it would be perfectly suited for their battles and anime design .

[jay2]

Not a bad update, but Europe have been kicked in the pants by Sony AS USUIAL!. Still not Qore,get a grib and wake up and smell the coffee Sony Europe.
