I.Q. Final and Arc the Lad III released for PSN Japan - Image 1 


Some games can't simply be forgotten. As a matter of fact, Sony has just release Intelligent Qube Final and Arc the Lad III, both by SCEI, for Japan's PlayStation Network. By porting over previous titles to the PSN, players can relive their gaming experience via their PlayStation 3 and the PlayStation Portable. Each title is priced at US$ 5.

Here's a short background info for Intelligent Qube Final. It's a puzzle game wherein you control a character that must capture approaching cubes by trapping them. In order to do this, you must run around and mark a spot on the platform. Once the cubes roll on top of them, you capture the cubes by deactivating the marked spot.

The tactical RPG Arc the Lad III, on the other hand, is the third and final leg for the Arc series. The game basically lets you take on quests from guilds for the game to move on. As the story develops, the characters Alec and Lutz meet new company to face a corrupted organization called the Academy. 

With the introduction of these titles to the PlayStation Network, you can surely visit the timeless games and experience the wonder. We'll be providing you with more updates as they come.

Well, one big ***** YOU at sony's online store.

seriously...



In amerika people get PSone games such as Wild Arms and Spyro, but do the people in Europe get ? That is right, utter crap. People in europe speak english, just release those games in europe aswell.

tough luck for those *****tards that don't know english and need a multi lingo menu with every game.



Or make it so that i can make purchases from the US store with a credit card with an address from europe.. >_<



shove QBert up your asses sony, seriously

Does it matter though ?



Because when you try to buy something, the country of your CreditCard when inputting the billing address information is Auto-Set to the country your acount is from, in this case: Japan

( My case, America )



And unless you are able to get a credit card with a Japanese Billing Address, you are not able to buy anything from the store.



And you can't create sub-acounts with a different country than the master acount you are trying to register it to. So this little by-pass won't work...



Anyone any idea how the heck I can buy content from the American PSN ?

I really want Wild Arms and Spyro, I don't want those crap games that the European store has to offer... most of them I haven't even heard of for *****s sake...

We have like 15 ps1 games available in the us. I was on the japan site recently and they have like over a hundred ps1 games available to purchase.



What I don't get is alot of those games have already been released in the us so they've already been translated to english. So what's SCEA's problem? Why can't they release more ps1 games in the us? It can't be that hard to convert it to be available for PSN because japan has so many. So what's the problem, don't they want to make money or do they have no business sense? I hope someone from SCEA is out there reading this!!!!
