The PlayStation Store Thread

What about that Tori-Emaki? Is that no good?

No good at all, not even with the aid of recreational drugs. I bought a few of the camera applications and they're all pants, with the exception of EyeCreate which is free anyway.

There's nothing anywhere near as good as the EyeToy games on PS2. Considering how small those games are and how relatively easy it would be to port them and stick 'em up on PSN, I can't help but feel that Sony missed a trick there.

Kids love EyeCreate though.

Is this my first post?

Quest For Booty will be downloadabubble this week:

Sadly, it’s only the PSN download that you’ll be able to grab on Thursday, as the Blu-ray release (still exclusive to Europe) isn’t due until September 12th.

...apparently the UK release is £10, the European 15 Euro

That's awesome - how do you get it? Hard to believe that it's over ten years ago.

I myself only ever got to the T-Rex level where you came out of a cave and you're running through a jungle full of enemies with bazooka's and what not. In fact if you leave the menu screen idle, it's that very demo level that shows up.

You collect all the DNA strands to get that ending.

The game was super hard.

Anyone want a game of Calling All Cars sometiems,,, its pretty dead

Super-Entro-Destructo-Pay works fine - grabbed myself a copy of the street fighter psx game on the us store just now.

The man is right.

Might download Spyro tomorrow.

Street fighter, Spyro and R&C:QFB all 3 of these I will be getting come pay day.

Also found this guide for anyone having trouble setting up a foreing account inluding harmless addresses:

2. Sign Up for the Playstation Network.

3. Select Hong Kong as your Country/Region. (You can select ANY region as long as you can provide a real address.)

4. Make sure your language is set to English.

5. Select Master Account.

6. Create an e-mail account for your new PSN ID. If you have another e-mail address you can use just use it.. a friends, a parents, or a girlfriends etc. Otherwise visit any of the free e-mail websites below:
Gmail - http://www.google.com/mail/help/promo1.html
lycos - http://mail.lycos.com/lycos/Index.lycos
mail.com - http://www.mail.com
hotmail - http://www.hotmail.msn.com
AOL - http://free.aol.com/thenewaol/email.adp
Once you've created an account simply use the e-mail address in your registration.

7. Create an online ID.

8. Enter a name, it's up to you how to play this one.

9. Next you'll need to provide a valid address for the region. Lets say you pick Hong Kong as my new homeland. Visit Frommers HERE and click on any of the restaurants names. Once you do this you'll have a valid address for your new account so enter it!

That's it, congratulations you've now successfully created a foreign region PSN account for your PS3! Enjoy the spoils!

It's basically the same principle for every account that you create. You just have to change the region, email address, (language for Japanese account) and the address itself.

My example for a US account is almost the same as in the quote but step 3 would be different it would be something like this:-

Region - USA
Address - 1226 Rodeo Drive, Beverly Hills, California, 90210 (zip code).

If people get stuck on addresses just look up some company names as suggested http://www.yellowpages.com. I wonder if Microsoft's address has been taken up for a US account?

Happy creating!

Is the demo of GT still on any PSN, i.e. Euro, USA, Japan, HK?

Not sure how many know this but if you have a friend with a PS3 and you trust them with your log in you can give them your PSN ID and let them create a new user on the system, best toy have log in automatically unticked, log in on your account and download any of the content you have paid for and vice versa. You can then play their content at any time as long as you keep their details on your PS3. I have bought pixlejunk: eden and got warhawks, flow, MK2, cool boarders and loco roco completely for free off 2 off my friends.

I would consider doing swaps on here for details if anyone was interested, I would just delete and retenter my CC details everytime I bought a game.

you've got cool boarders? I fancy a go of that, never played it on PS. Im interested

I find that the PSone games require that bit of nostalgia in order to thoroughly enjoy them, so I doubt CB1 has anything for you.

For instance, If CB3 went up, I'm there as I owned it once. Yet I wouldn't purchase CB4.

Oh by the way, as I'm sure buffaloman would tell you himself if he was registered here, Ratchet & Clank: Quest For Booty is actually 3.2GB and not 2.3GB as reported last week. The lucky bugger is reviewing it as we speak.

Buff writes for you?

[Dave]

He does indeed.

[Jimmy Shedders]

Seems like the best place to ask this:

Does anyone know if that will work on my PS3? I see no reason why it shouldn't, but I just want to double check.

[sw26]

He does indeed.

I wondered, as I saw him on my friends list playing it yesterday and was wondering how he got it so early.

Doesn't the PS3 only work with external drives with FAT32 partitions which is limited to 32GB?

Erm, I don't actually know. I assumed it was just a plug in and go along with it jobby!

Depends on the software you use to reformat it. I used some Western Digital software to reformat my drive and it uses the whole 160ishGB

thank god, thought my rock band days were over...

I wonder if Ratchet & Clanks is shareable?
And I wonder if Buff is in a sharing mood?

[Jimmy Shedders]

I might be, as I think Siren: Blood Curse is sharable.

[Jimmy Shedders]

You can basically share PSN accounts with other people, so you can download everything they have downloaded from the PSN store (Except Gran Turismo 5 Prologue and Warhawk)
