Sony has finally revealed it's new PlayStation Network Design. And it looks awesome - too bad I almost never download anything from the PSN Store.

The new design will be online in about two weeks! But Sony also has some bad news. Until that day, there won't be any new downloadable content on the PSN Store. - BUT at the moment, that's only the case in the European store.

There is not official statement from SCEA at the moment. But if Sony America does the same thing, you know what that means - No new Rockband songs for PS3 gamers in the next two weeks. :eek:
Well, I hope for all of you PS3 gamers that that's not the case.

Nice update, thanks.

Work blocks the images, so I'll check out when I get home.

Nice update, thanks.


You're welcome. Strange that nobody else is looking in here. Maybe I should have posted this in the Rockband forums.
I mean, this could mean no new Rockband songs for two weeks after all!

Where are the complains? :P

I'm hoping this doesn't affect PS3 users in the US.

Wait I second! ok, correct if I am wrong cus I'm really not sure. Is it possible to download songs directly from the RockBand music store without going through the PS store?

Edit: btw there is a thread about this in the RB section.

Hmm... never thought about this. But since HMX would have to upload it on the PSN Store first anyway, I don't think it will pop up in the Ingame Store either.
But no idea,

Really? Oh, sorry then.

Unfortunately, I do believe it affects us North America users. :(

I don't really see how a software update would keep them from posting new stuff for over 2 weeks. But anyway, I hope there's more to the overhaul than the new layout detailed in the screenshots. Maybe they're going to dump the wallet so you don't have to click OK 6 times to buy 3 songs.

Because they have to make major tests to make sure...

1. That when people pay for something that it actually DLs with the new code
2. When people DL something for free they don't get charged...


The store is getting a major overhaul. They aren't taking any chances.

Frankly, I could care less about the other updates the PS store gets, I'm talking about: game demos, wallpapers, themes, movie trailers or even games like Pain and such. And while not having DLC for Rockband for 2 weeks will be regretable, I think I'll live. The new store better be worth it though!!


Here's an interesting thought! Do you think they'll take away the five download rule?

Even though no RB for 2 weeks.. I can wait since we are getting a brand new store and a Firmware update :)

Is Still Alive really free ?

Maybe they'll finally make Canadian prices equal too.
I don't suppose there's a way to transfer RB DLC across systems? :p

Now you're asking too much. You made the choice to be born Canadian, AND YOU WILL PAY FOR IT!

:P
