Welcome to the Third Playstation Store thread!
Wherein we discuss things purchased/obtained/related to, obviously, the Playstation Store and Network.
In the same sentiment as the last thread, I would like to state that I'd love to see this continue to be a community project. If you have any info on upcoming PS Store downloads, please feel free to let me know either through the thread or PM, and I will add it to the OP. Also, if you'd like your PSN ID in the OP, please IM me or ask to included in the thread, with your PSN ID, region and whether or not you have a headset. If there's anything incorrect, let me know.
What's different?
The first Post will contain the PSN ID List and updates as usual, as it's just easiest to update that way. Hopefully with the extra space, I'll be able to just C/P without a ton of pruning like I've had to do in the past. I'm going to try leaving the Sales Info outside/above the spoiler tags, and have the rest of the two updates under them; See how that works. If it's too awkward, let me know and I'll switch it back.
The Games section, which will be the second post is, obviously, moved, but will also be expanded. Since I'll have a full post for the games alone to work with, my idea of putting up reviews for games (I've also toyed around with the idea of either a "New Games" section for the last update or two, or a Highlighted Game deal for it.)
The third post will be the expanded Guides and FAQ section. A lot of questions that I've seen pop up in the last thread, I will try to put up there so we're not repeating conversations.

FAQ
(Q) When does the store usually update?
(A) There's odd nights here and there (Mostly late ones of the odd updates), but for the most part, the US Store tends to update around 5-8 PM EST. And the PAL Store tends to update around 3 PM GMT.
(Q) Can I play all Minis on my PSP and PS3?
(A) Most of them, yes, but not all of them. Tetris is probably the biggest example of this. (PSP-Only) It, like most things with PSN content is Developer-Reliant, so they have to make it work on both if they choose to do so.
(Q) What about PSOne Classics? What can I play them on?
(A) Most of the PSOne Classics (of this writing, there are 2 exceptions) are compatible with both PS3 and PSP. If you own both, you can have it on both platforms and even move your saves between the two platforms.
(Q) Can I play PSOne games I have without buying them again?
(A) Kind of. There is a PS3/PSP Connectivity function called Remote Play where you can play a PSOne Game from your PS3 on your PSP through the internet. It's not great, but it's workable. The PSOne game must be in the PS3 disk-tray to use Remote Play. Also note that some PSN games are also Remote Play compatible.
(Q) I have a PS3, but no PSP. Can I still buy and play PSP games?
(A) Unfortunately, no. While there is minimal PSP emulation on the PS3 (For Minis), it won't work for Full-Blown PSP games. Nobody knows if it is a thing that will happen.
(Still working on this section)
Got'cha covered on that one!
If anyone has other recommendations that aren't already on the list, let me know, even if it's something blatantly obvious, as I'm not really thinking about anything but fixing up the OP to be presentable for now.
Also, like last thread, if you're not in the PSN ID list and would like to be, post here with your info or PM it to me and I'll edit it in!
Edit: Also! Question for you PAL types. We've been over the fact that the US Store updates around 5-8ish PM EST, and I know we've covered it for the PAL store as well, but I've forgotten. So, anyone know a time range for the PAL store?
~3PM GMT I think. They usually post the Heads-Up about 3-4 hours beforehand.
As for recommended games, I think Joe Danger, Deathspank, Secret of Monkey Island: SE, Monkey Island 2 SE, Tales of Monkey Island and Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse all deserve to show up on that list. Castle Crashers and Shank I'd guess are pretty good too, though I haven't (and probably won't) bought them.
I bought Afterburner Climax earlier today. It's freaking awesome. Looks gorgeous too. Being able to select Afterburner II music (along with the "Fire!" sound effect whenever you get a lock) was a nice nostalgic nod. The more you play the game, the more "EX Options" you unlock (stuff like more lives, stronger guns, more continues, different speeds, and the like) that make the game easier if you turn them on. There are branching paths and secret levels as well.
I asked once in the last thread and didn't get a reply, so I'll give it one last shot before I give up - do any of you guys in Europe want to help me get Outrun Online Arcade (by buying it on an account and giving me the login details) in exchange for me buying you a similarly priced game or games from the US store and transferring it to you in the same manner?
Surely there is some European PS3 owner who wants to get ahold of Castle Crashers early, or Symphony of the Night, or Final Fantasy Tactics, or Dino Crisis, or Grandia, or Resident Evil 1, 2, or 3, or Silent Hill, or Suikoden, or etc etc etc?
As for that last part, I would do it for you but a) I don't have much money and b) you'd probably want a UK account anyway (the NZ store's missing some good content because some publishers don't give enough of a shit to pay for Aus/NZ ratings). Maybe if you can't find anyone, you should just try to find someone you can paypal some money in exchange for them buying a UK PSN card and emailing you the code?
I want to see just how awful it really is
Sony can be kind of picky when it comes to credit cards. I had to put in a few before it took an Amex card, of all things....
UPDATE EDIT 9:40pm est - Sony doesn't want my money.
-(PS3) TerRover ($14.99)
-(PS3) PixelJunk 3in1 Bundle ($19.99)
-(PS3) Demos for TerRover, Sengoku BASARA: Samurai Heroes, Quantum Theory, Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga’hoole
-(PSP) Ace Combat Joint Assault ($39.99)
-(PSP) Hannspree Ten Kate Honda SBK Superbike World Championship ($9.99)
-(Minis) Ace Armstrong Vs. The Alien Scumbags – Minis ($6.99)
Plus Members get the demo for God of War: Ghost of Sparta starting this week (They also sent out demo codes) and it is great. The PixelJunk Bundle offers Monsters, Racers 2nd Lap and Eden for anyone who doesn't already have them. (Which, you should. Probably.)
Wonder how it is
Gonna find out when it finishes in about an hour
and then stream or record it
yes!
I'm guessing seriously awful.
Sengoku Basara - fuck yes buy it
To elaborate on QT (hehe cutie how adorable) -- it's really underwhelming visually. It seems to run at 30FPS or less, despite looking worse than oh, say, Gears of War. Textures are really mediocre, animations are laughable, and the art design is up to you if you like/dislike it. Gun play is on par with Gears but much, much, MUCH less satisfying. The game didn't even explain itself when you begin (beyond showing the controls, which often doesn't help) and is kind of brutal for the difficulty without telling you what to do. The demo jumps sporadically in the story at the beginning and doesn't explain what's going on until after the first little area. I didn't bother getting past the second area, where they introduce the girl and throwing her at stuff. It basically becomes "okay, he's immune to your bullets, so throw the girl at him instead and then he'll die". Repetitive, unsatisfying in multiple ways, and all around lacking. That's just my opinion though, and I'm sure someone out there will like it.
It felt pretty much exactly like a Dynasty Warriors game but a little bit flashier
Sounds pretty cool to me.
I still gave the demo a shot. I concur with Kaseius' assessment of the game. I will add that the big enemies aren't invulnerable to all guns. The rocket launcher takes them down pretty easily. But since they are the only enemies that seem to carry them, you have to use the girl-toss on at least the first one.
I wanted to like Sengoku Basara, but it's pretty much a "Just Press X to Win" game.
Kinda disappointing, still no Castle Crashers and just a Mini for PSP.
But we do get Worms 2 and, uh, Top Gun.
The full update:
PSN+ people also get demos for PES 2011 and God of War: Ghost of Sparta.
Which actually makes me glad I subscribed yesterday.
Man, you're crazy if you ever expected Quantum Theory to be good. It sounded and looked terribad from the moment it was announced.
Anyway, the update. Normally I'd be annoyed that some content wasn't put up on the Aus and NZ stores but Top Gun and Quantum Theory demo? I'll let that pass. Seriously awful update though.
I got a GoW: Ghost of Sparta code sent to me last week, though it was a US code so it's not on my proper account. I should really get around to using my PSP. MGS: Peace Walker and the aforementioned demo are sitting there just waiting to be played.
I never said I thought it would be good. But sometimes a game can still be entertaining even if it isn't that good. This game seems to fail even that.
Everyone go get the Sengoku Basara Samurai Heroes demo. Then go to the thread and talk about how awesome it is.
Because it is so awesome.
Like "Epic should probably sue" uninspired.
Comic store, though:
I haven't really kept up on it, but it seems like there's at least one free comic an update, or has been for the past few times. Usually #1 of something, to tempt you to get into it proper. (Or, failing that, half of #1) Still, pretty neat, kinda.
:?:
It, uh...sure does. That's disconcerting, to say the least.
Can someone check on the PAL Store to see if the situation's the same there?
I don't see why it wouldn't
But I'm gonna save my game on AC2 real quick and find out
Still works
This is still pretty shitty, but I doubt anyone's surprised that Disney pulled something of theirs from being sold and obtained digitally.
Suck it, Disney.
The Emperor's New Groove does have some minor sound issues, and games have been pulled for that reason before (Spyro 2 on the PAL store comes to mind).
They're still on the UK store.
Spyro was more of a "This game is going to fuck your shit up" issue.
