PlayStation Store Updates (No GTA IV Trailer Here)

Yes, more demos would be nice. But I would like to see tips and tricks for making the most out of your PS3 as well.

And I hope you all remember that Home is coming this year which should (hopefully) address all of these concerns.

I'd like some PS1 games and my store to look as nice as that one. UK one isn't so good.

When Sony got rid of the Official Playstation Magazine in the US, they also got rid of all Playstation 2 game demos. There is now no way to get demos of new PS2 games. There are also extremely few PS3 game demos on the store. Plenty of new PS3 games are being released now but very few of them have demos. The reason is probably that Sony is charging game publishers too much to host demos on their store. Since there is no way to download demos from any other web site, this means that game demos are a thing of the past for Playstation owners.

If anything I think we should get more game trailers and demos. Trailers will keep us wanting to see more of a game and go "oooh...ahhhh" Demo's will show why the heck we were going "oooh..ahhh" in the first place :) Also the add ons are pretty cool...assuming i've got the game that they are for...so far Genji outfits :) Now if they could do something with the camera...that'd be fantastic!

The GTA IV Trailer was what I expected...not what I was hoping for...I was expecting it to be a teaser: a minute of seeing the city...a shot of the probable hero...and then the date of its release. Now what I was hoping for...a minute of explosions,gunfire,bad language,and new things you can do...so considering its a teaser...its not even worth downloading onto my PS3 if it was a choice...i'd rather why my Shrek 3 and Transformers trailers 5times over XD

More PS1 for PSP (because I'm too confused and afraid to use homebrew), demos for every damn game, zero movie trailers.

lol, Sony's free service actually had more content added than a single GTAIV trailer, and that's bad? No, not really!

Demos. And older games that are playable on the PS3 instead of on the PSP (since I spent so much on the PS3, I can't afford a PSP). Being able to play a demo of Warhawk or Lair would be delicious, and I'd really love to be able to play Silent Bomber without scrounging all over the interweb looking for it.

@Boxelder: "Home will actually have a lot of feature that XBL doesn't. The implementation may take a year to get sorted out, but that's to be expected."

So your comparing what you perceive Home will be like in a year compared to what Live has right now? I don't think anyone can know what Home is going to be like and I don't think anyone can know what Live is going going to be like in that time.

People complain about XBL service and boast about Sony's service that is free so I wonder what more Sony will be willing to do for free since it seems that the quality of service from Live Gold accounts has to do with being charged a subscription fee.

WAY more Blu-ray trailers, less game demos...wait...screwed that up - reverse it.

A half-way decent interface (like one based on the XMB) would be nice, along with some speed...

You know what I liked on the 360 when it wasn't flashing three red lights at me, Texas Hold'em. I like these little casual card games. Sometimes I just don't wanna chainsaw someone's torso in half or save London. Sometimes I just want a little card playing relaxing cerebral action. Well... on the bright side I'm a little better at Sudoku now.

@VoldtaEngler:

I agree, the movie trailers are becoming a bit much.

I'd like to see some quality downloadable games that you can't get on Marketplace, maybe some that get closer to and take advantage of the 400 MB limit now that the black beast has background downloading.

I just hope it doesn't become a carbon copy of XBLA. I don't need the same game twice.

Also, more demos. PS2 demos if need be.

PapaBear — Fri, 30 Mar 2007 19:11:44 MDT

I am under the impression that the current PS Store is more of a placeholder until they roll out Home and it's attached features.

I have a lot of things I would like to see PSN implement, but I am going to hold off in saying as much negative stuff as I want to until I see what they have in store with that.

I would like to see demos of games that are not out yet. Like how xbox-live gets them usually about a week or two ahead of their release. Hopefully they start doing this soon.

Evil J — Fri, 30 Mar 2007 18:39:52 MDT

More Demos, more downloadable games. Trailers are cool and all, but I have INHD and they have a high-def trailer show every weekend (although the Transformers trailer was pretty sweet... nerdgasm).

I do like the regularity of the updates, though. If you're checking every day, yeah, you're wasting your time. It updates every thursday around the end of business, without fail.

Crooked — Fri, 30 Mar 2007 18:37:33 MDT

I would love them to assign a day for new content like Wii Mondays or Live Wednesdays second Demos for games that aren't out already it gets aggravating seeing stuff Xbox had a month or more prior. Maybe they can also add a few TV Shows or something. Lets go sony pick up the pace.

Boxelder — Fri, 30 Mar 2007 18:33:21 MDT

The difference between the two is already very slim and Sony hasn't even rolled out their offical on-line with Home yet. Home will actually have a lot of feature that XBL doesn't. The implementation may take a year to get sorted out, but that's to be expected.

I don't see how Marketplace is so much better. There are many weeks when there is nothing new on it, or they just put up something like Root Beer Tapper or some other mediocre game.

the Ps3 anti-hype on these blogs is just as bad as the stuff that goes int he other direction.

oM5o — Fri, 30 Mar 2007 18:23:41 MDT

Everybody keeps talking about the difference in price as the definitive factor between XBL and PSN. the core features are the same. Its just the organization and implemettion that is different.

whitesanjuro — Fri, 30 Mar 2007 18:17:12 MDT

I'd also like more demos - my understanding is that the Japanese PSN store has an AC4 demo and after the hell that was Gundam: Crossfire, I'm more inclined to try-before-I-buy nowadays. Blu-ray trailers instead of theatrical trailers would be cool too.

audman — Fri, 30 Mar 2007 18:00:49 MDT

What do you want for a free web service. I happily pay for xbox live because I know they can then actually afford to develop content for it. I mean yeah it can add up but it is better to have too much to choose from then to not have anything at all. I have all of the downloadable games on my ps3 and resistance. I am still waiting for something else to give me a reason to be happy with my purchase. We are nearing the end of the usual 6 month launch drought that occurs for most systems after launch and hopefully there will be 10 good titles for ps3 exclusively. That is my quota to make my purchase worth it to me.

giovonti — Fri, 30 Mar 2007 17:58:48 MDT

I wonder if everyone that wants more features would be willing to pay for it like Live users. I'm a Live user and since I pay for the service I sorta expect to have these things.

I`ve had my PS3 since Nov. 17th and the current state of PSN is sad and to me seems tacked on. Everything from the Store to the messaging and Friends management. Nothing about it seems intergral or centered around online even home feels that way. I wish they would upgrade the XMB to not feel so tacked on and last if not middle priority. I take in to consideration XBL has been out longer, but atleast it is very much centered around online. Have you ever played one without a broadband connection? Its pretty damn sad.

I would like to have quicktime support on the browser. I wanna watch the 28 weeks later trailer on my hd tv.

Also they should have psone games for download for the ps3, plus we should be able to reverse remote play and send games from the psp to the ps3.

Also some new screensavers for ps3 and sweet themes and backgrounds.

I got the full 720p HD trailer on my PS3. I downloaded the original .wmv then I used PS3 Video 9, converted it to AVC 720p, then put it on my USB stick and put it on my PS3. Its that easy. stop whining. The original file was 66MB, after converting it was only 20MB.

mr_dimsum — Fri, 30 Mar 2007 17:25:14 MDT

I'd love to see some real content actually in the PlayStation Store from new mini-games, new trailers, to just anything. They are far away from matching Live's service even though their GUI is much more robust and better layed out. Content is king.

Islandkiwi — Fri, 30 Mar 2007 17:22:27 MDT

Sony doesn't need to worry so much about the playstation store, they need to focus on getting ps3 games to market. All I have my ps3 doing is folding, and although that's beneficial to everyone else, I'd appreciate a little me time and be able to play a game or two on the bloody thing.

DBX00 — Fri, 30 Mar 2007 17:18:27 MDT

You can just use the web browser to view the trailer. I don't need to download the file, if I can just use the browser. I don't disagree that the Playstation Store needs a little work but it'll have to see a dramatic change when they start selling music and videos. The good thing about using a web interface is that it can be easily updated when they are ready to do so.

Dont worry too much.... whether it was my particular TV or brightness/contrast setup, the trailer didnt look all that spectacular in HD on my 720p LCD.

No where near as crisp as a lot of other trailers you see on Mktplce.

I think that if they had posted the GTA IV trailer to the Playstation store, a good chunk of the continent could have been wiped out in the resulting server explosion and melt-down. And of course, it would take longer to download than it has taken them to make the game.
