Weekly Playstation Store Update thread

Not sure if anyone here still uses Entropay to purchase from the US PS Store but I received this from them today.



Did anyone else get this? Don't know if this means the end of using Entropay to fund my US account? (they make reference to not being able to use gambling sites but don't specifically say that the PS store will no longer accept it).
Tempted to load it up with some credit before this happens just incase it does stop working. :(

What are they asking you to do? I just logged in to Entropay and when I click on "Change Personal Details" my normal UK billing details are in there. AFAIK there is no separate billing addresses per virtual card etc?

Do you have a "fake" USA address in that section? If so I dunno how you even managed to sign up as I was asked for Driving License etc evidence to verify address.

I am sure my USA PSN account has a fake address, but how/why would Entropay know/care about that?

more stuff form comments section:

Zombie Apocalypse should be end of this month.
Turtles in Time should be some point in Septermber

Also re GamesConn:

For Gamescon we will be releasing videos on the store on the evening of Tuesday the 18th straight after the Sony conference, this will be followed by business as usual on Thursday the 20th (including more Gamescon videos).


There is some PS blog/store person who spends all day answering questions about the update (which is where I am pasting these from).

Also users, and the rep mention 3.0 firmware. First I heard of it but people seem to be implying it is coming with this GamesConn speech/announcement/conference .


rp2000
 
The clock position bugs me, they acknowledged it was a **** up the day it was released and yet we have had so many other updates since but they never fix this.


rp2000
 
It's more a case of they acknowledged it was a **** up as soon as it was released and said it would be fixed in the next update. If they forget things like this, what else do they forget? I care very little about the cross game chat tbh and I am 99.999999% certain you will not get that next week anyway.

Cross game invites are not possible (across the board), cross game chat is unlikely, anything other rumours of what 3.0 will bring? Screenshot functions? Play music in games function? Would rather they fix simple things then add behind the scenes features that no developers ever use.


rp2000
 
I'm a bit confused by this whole cross game chat deal... can't you do that already by just making a chat lobby and inviting people in there? It works when I'm playing WipEout with the dudes...

Su

Voice chat, I think you are describing the text chat room (or some specific Wipeout lobby function?).

Is this weeks update even live? Not up yet on my store.

It's up, I just downloaded the Batman: AA Joker map challenges. Maybe you are confused as the front page (with the adverts) is the same as last week, and also the 1st 2 items in Latest (Vidzone and Gamescom) are the same as last week?

Edit: according to comments on EU ps blog, it just went up, between our posts :)


rp2000
 
I like it - especially the icons and the silly grey friends boxes dont look as bad now...

ps3ud0 :cool:

I hate the font it uses though, changed that back to the default font. The animation is pretty slick, Shame we only get 1 free animated theme :(

I'm kinda new to owning a PS3 :) I just created a US account but how do you actually pay for download content from the US store, can I just use my UK Mastercard?

Some Mastercards work, some online "Virtual" Visa cards work, some pre-paid Mastercards, you can get in newsagents, work, also you can buy USA PSN cards off auction sites and import sites, that also work.


rp2000
 
Anyone know what the price will be? It is suspiciously absent from their info, considering this is due out next week.


rp2000
 
No previous PJ outing has been more than a fiver. I expect £4.99 or less. Maybe £4.49.

Just reading the US blog (They have the same post about PJ Shooter as the EU blog).

Someone said:
"I didn’t see the price.. Is it $9.99 like the other games or will it be bumped up to the new $14.99 standard?"

Response was:
"I’m pretty sure it will be the cheaper of those two pricepoints"

Just checked and USA had earlier games for $9.99, UK had Eden for £4.99 and Monsters for £3.49 (Maybe it was higher and that is a reduced price now).

Recent $9.99 games have been £6.29 to £9.99 here. Hopefully £6.29 will be the price point :)
