Quick news update for anyone expecting the PlayStation Store to be open tomorrow: apparently it’s not going to be.
“The latest information I have on PlayStation Store,” says SCEE’s James Gallagher, “is that we are aiming to have it live by the end of May.”
“Contrary to popular rumours, it will not be reopening tomorrow but we will let you know [on the EU blog] as soon as the date is confirmed.”
Seems like Sony didn’t tell developers that today was the day, then.

a week wont matter for us gamers, but a week for dev/publishers makes a massive difference.
Reality Check
“Sigh”. . .why do i read & believe all this rubbish they print on these sites for. . .

Its okay, you’ll learn if its fake or not

They have to report on rumour/speculation if it has a chance of being true. If they didn’t then the readership would think the site wasn’t giving them the information they wanted and would go else where.
Double-edged sword.

So thats 35 days of PS+ down the swanny and counting, meaning that this welcome back tripe is getting worse by the day. Non subscribers get 30 days free, actual subscribers getting 24 even if it went up tomorrow, 17 if it is the end of May.

I thought that subscribers were getting all of their time back plus the free 30 days? i.e. if you can’t access your content for 40 days (for example), you get the 40 days back plus the 30 free days that everyone else is getting? Or have I gotten the wrong end of the stick?
Erroneus
I think that was the plan. Two months was added to my account last friday, but it’s pretty shitty if the store isn’t up before the 31th, that means 40 days of downtime.

this calls for two words ;) one begins with F and the other with O, you can guess ;)
Sympozium, cyclone tornado AGAIN!

Origami Killer

Strange humour OK. It’s like me telling you to FO & adding only joking to cover myself.

So I’m the only one who thought Frame Otters. I mean, how could we possibly blame them?!
Origami Killer

They are most likely adding cross-game chat! Or not… :-P
Sympozium, cyclone tornado AGAIN!
YES! that would be amazing imagine viewing four of the videos but each was in each corner of the screen thus creating cross chating!

This week WOULD be very nice, think of all the time of life that could be saved by launching this week!
Come on…I have FF to download

GAR!! I’ve been wondering what was up with it. For me this is probably better, I used all this months bandwidth so I’m on a 64kbps (slow) bandwidth cap. It better hurry though, it’s been a month. In the voice of Sandal from DA2: I WANT SOME PIE!

Oh Jizz! I was looking forward to the first Dirt 3 meet tonight after using the online pass at the store. Ah well next week it is then. :S

So if people have had their PS+ subs updated, how can they use them without the store? If they were updated on the 20th that’s potentially ten days less than they were promised.
I just want to give Sony my money but they are making it difficult.
I talk about games
I can’t wait ’till all is back to normal, so I can dl all of that juicy DLC that’s been piling up over the past month! :D
I talk about games
and I can’t wait for the welcome back stuff either.
