Frequently Asked Questions

Q: It says that the game is on sale today, but I just checked and it's still full price. When is it on sale?
A: That's probably because you're checking the store well before the update happens. Updates typically happen between 4-7 PM EST on Tuesdays, so please check back then. Somebody will probably mention that it's live in this thread when it's available, just in case you're lazy.

Q: Where else can I buy PSN content besides the PlayStation Stores on my PS3 or PSP?
A: Media Go is Sony's media manager program that lets you browse and buy stuff off of just the PSP's PS Store. GameStop.com offers PS3 and PSP games and DLC on their websites along with letting you buy that stuff in their stores. GameStop will give you a code after purchase that can be redeemed either in the PS Store or under Account Management on the XMB. If you want to redeem a code from wherever you are, www.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com is the best place to do so.

Q: Does GameStop adjust their prices to reflect new sales?
A: Permanent price drops are usually reflected by GameStop, but sales usually are not acknowledged.

Q: Would you mind listing the previous deals so I can see if a game I'm considering is a frequent sale item or not?
A: Since that would be a lot of work, I have a simpler solution that will give you access to the past few years' worth of sales. Just go over to the What's in the PS Store thread I run in the PS3 forum and click on the "Search This Thread" button right above the first post on the right and type in the name of the game you're interested in. The results should let you see if that game has been on sale at any point in the past few years and give you an idea of whether it's better to get the game now or wait for a sale.

Q: When does a deal actually expire, as far as the last moment that I can grab the game at the sale price?
A: All sales end when the next update happens, which would be probably about an hour before the update actually appears in the New Releases section of the store. Since there isn't a set time for updates to happen, it would be in your best interest to not be putting off getting a game on sale for that long to have to worry about this issue.

Q: I'm interested in PlayStation Plus. Do I keep any games that go on sale for PlayStation Plus members?
A: Yes, anything you pay money for as a PS+ member is yours to keep forever. Most of the free content is attached to the subscription and expires once that sub lapses, but anything you buy is like every other purchase on PSN and is attached to your account and is playable forever.

Q: I'm interested in PlayStation Plus. Do I keep the games that are taken down from the PS+ section of the PS Store?
A: Yes, you can keep playing those games for the length of your subscription. There's no need to rush yourself to beat those games within the month unless you're just enjoying it that much.

Q: I'm interested in PlayStation Plus. Do I keep all of these games forever? What if I re-subscribe after letting it lapse?
A: Unfortunately, no. You can only play them for as long as you have a PS+ membership, though games you buy with a discount are yours forever. If your sub lapses at all, re-subscribe will give you access to all of the games you previously had, so there's no reason to not grab them when they arrive.

Q: I noticed that some of my PlayStation Plus games do not have an expiration date on them. Are they mine to keep forever?
A: Unless you bought them, they all have expiration dates. The free titles that don't have expiration dates are those where you got a demo and an unlock key, which behaves differently than the normal games you usually get with PS+. If you let your sub lapse, the unlock key expires and you're left with just the demo taunting you about what you once had. You can log in on http://www.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com to double check that if you want to be sure.

Q: How many times am I allowed to redownload content that I've purchased?
A: Any games you've purchased can be downloaded as much as you want on up to two systems at once for anything beyond 11/18/11, so you can delete games whenever you need room and redownload them when you need them again easily. Everything you purchased before 11/18/11 still adheres to the original five system limit. Videos are a bit different in that your ownership of them expires once you download an item from the video store and delete it, though you're free to back-up that video to your PSP and then to your PC via Media Go.

Q: Are PSP Games playable on the PS3?
A: No, the only games playable on the PSP and PS3 are PS1 Classics, PS1 Imports, and PlayStation Minis at the moment.

Q: Can I pay exact change for PSN content?
A: Yes, though you need to at least have $5 worth of items to be able to pay exact change. This is done so that Sony isn't pay credit card fees on small $1 purchases, so if you don't have anything to push the total of the items in your cart above $5, you'll just get the difference in credit on your account that can be applied to future purchases.

Q: Can you explain the terminology that you use here?
A: I usually add something after the sale price to indicate what kind of sale it is. Permanent Price Drop is a permanent drop in price, so this is the new base price for this item. Temporary Sale is a sale whose expiration date is not specified in the PS Blog post or by the publisher/developer, but most of these sales end after one week. Persistent Deals are PlayStation Plus deals that are always available to PlayStation Plus members and are usually adjusted when they go on sale to everybody else, so you probably shouldn't jump on them right away as a member.

Q: Can you break down the format you use for these deals?
A: Game Name - Add-on Name or Platform if Not PS3-only - Price - Sale Modifier or Additional Info

Q: Can I post here about getting people for my gameshare group?
A: No, there is a dedicated thread for gamesharing, so I'd prefer that you use the thread for it rather than filling up this thread with gameshare requests. Also, I'm not interested in gamesharing myself, so please don't send me PMs asking if I want to join your gameshare group.

Feel free to ask questions or pose questions that I should add to the FAQ. Thanks.

Ahh... New thread smell! Just want to say that you do a great service to the CAG community and that we appreciate your work, Frisky!
 
I think the link in the last thread may be broke because it kept sending me to that thread and not this one.

Great job keeping the PSN deals in a central location
 
Thanks for the thread Frisky. No idea what I'd do without it. There have been multiple times that something has been on sale that I wouldn't have known about without this awesome thread (even after checking PSN)!
 
Which ff should I buy?
When does the store update?
I spent 49.97 will they spot me 3 cents?
When do I get my 10 dollars?
I accidentally bought and platinumed a game, will Sony refund me?
Why should I buy a ps4 game when we don't even know if the ps7 in 2035 will be bc?
What's the best pixel junk game?
 
[quote name='MooseTheCorgi']If I buy the digital download of MLB 12 The show (Yes 2012) for the PS Vita off Gamestops website, will that count towards the $50?[/QUOTE]
No, it has to purchased on PSN using your PSN wallet. You could get a PSN money code from GameStop and use that to buy it off of PSN.
 
Out of all the threads I frequent on this entire forum, I don't think there's anyone who takes better care of their threads then Frisky does. As a Sony faithful, I greatly appreciate the effort you put in.

On to more pressing matters, I'm hoping some of my RZ points clear before the update next Tuesday so I can get a PSN card. Gotta get Rocketbirds for my Vita.

And if anyone is interested, there was a lot of positive feedback at a Vita developer panel at GDC.
 
The new PS Blogcast is out now, so here are next week's releases:

Games
Defiance - $59.99
Ion Assault HD
Ninja Gaiden 3 Razer's Edge Bundle

Add-ons
Capcom Arcade Cabinet
 
Love the thread Frisky, especially since I became a plus member yesterday! On the other hand, I don't love these massive downloads (10 GB just to download Darksiders!!!)
 
[quote name='tylerh1701']Thanks for all the hard work Frisky. And the blog update. Too bad no hints, Monday will hopefully be great tho![/QUOTE]

I prefer no hints, since it can lead to misleading expectations. Perfect example would be the fighting game hint last month. Every post I read thought it would be Dead or Alive 5, yet it turned out to be Tekken 6 for the PSP no less.

But it does help you hold off all fighting game purchases until the update, does it not? I think hints are added advantageous when you are doing meticulous purchase planning.

Eh, we were given the hints roughly 3 days before all the games were revealed, so I doubt it helped anyone.

Good point. I definitely thought we were getting DOA5.

[quote name='gettinmoney662']Man, if we get Okami for Plus, I'm definitely high fiving myself.[/QUOTE]

I'd love it too! However if you think you'd be able to play it right away, just get an EU trial and dlownload it. That's what I'll be doing if we don't end up getting it.

I don't think they should stop it because people guessed wrong.
 
[quote name='FriskyTanuki']I don't think they should stop it because people guessed wrong.[/QUOTE]

Not saying they should either. Just saying that hints can get people excited for things and ultimately result in people being disappointed in what we get. This is QUITE similar to the problem US has with EU. People see what EU is getting and their expectations are on that level, which the US rarely lives up to. At least with no hints I am not setting myself up for fail.
