Not only is Sony doing maintenance on the PSN this week, but now they’ve sent out a pretty crappy update.  The only shining components are the DMC game, new Borderlands 2 DLC, and Darksiders free for + Members.  All of the rest is either bad or nonexistent.  Hopefully next week is better.  Click the READ MOAR for the brief list.

PlayStation Store Update 01-15-13 Frequently Asked Questions

  • I pre-ordered my copy of DMC, however, when I try to play it, it says that I need to renew my license. How do I fix? Due to a fix with allowing pre-order customers to get the bonus content, you may need to go back in the PlayStation Store and click ‘Download’ on the DMC game page. You don’t need to redownload if it’s already on your PS3. Just click the download button and that should ‘renew your license’.
