Lmao no friggin' way. Not after all the old glitches that allowed people to get free games through cross-buy on old consoles.

If it's just something going wrong while upgrading to ps5 version (which is possible only from ps5 store) I don't see how it's related Bug was only avaliable in old web store. On PS4/PS5 and new store there wasn't ability to buy upgrade on demo. So I think that why Sony close it. All happend in one day so I don't think it was some kind for coincidence.

So, rather than fix the problem Sony thought it was better to just shut off the old store entirely! How can they be this incompetent? Heck, not even Activision can correct this product/pricing error? Another thing I’ll never comprehend is why upgrading your games to PS4–>PS5 has to act differently to the original PS4/PS3/Vita/PSP cross-buy system we all know and love. I’m talking about digital copies, of course. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance_87 Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 (edited) The whole Tony Hawk thing doesn't make any sense. You're supposed to delist/fix the faulty item, not shut down something you were going to shut down anyway. Also literally nobody knew that trick until it was posted here...

TimeLordCrow13y Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Yep, the link to the old US PS Store started re-directing to the awful new store last night. Ugh. Now I have to deal with the broken PS4 store with missing content. Thanks a lot Sony. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmperorZetta Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 I did all of my downloading back in December, it was a workaround so it was only a matter of time before the loophole got closed. Still sucks massively, though. Why did Sony not give people a heads up, at least a month in advance? Ridiculous! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Mercenary09 Posted March 27, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 27, 2021 Wow Sony really needs to get it together. Now there is no way for me to see the new add-ons that were released since neither the new web store nor the PS4/PS5 stores have that section anymore. Sony is so incompetent. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure it is possible that Tony Hawk have nothing to do with it, but the timing is very strange. Just at time when that bug hit store, they decided to kill it. Quite possibly, that bug was that last straw which breaks the camel's back. As for "nobody knew" sure, here maybe no one, but it was on on all discount sites and blogs, especially in Arab, Asian and Eastern European. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanted to grab some last minute Steins;Gate avatars before they're gone forever. Farewell Kurisu avatars that I procrastinated buying and now won't get the chance. Edit: Managed to get it to work. Added three desired avatars to my cart. Went to checkout and pay $1.50 EACH and then got more access denied pages. This crappy site doesn't even want to overcharge me for these damn avatars... lmao. Edit2: Brute forced it to work. If you do manage to get the site to load, move fast or it will start giving you access denied pages, for whatever reason. Now laugh and shame me for this purchase.

Maverick6146 Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 So they have a new wishlist functionality but it is totally empty. And now I don't have a way to access the old one. This is some new level of incompetence.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vermilion_Joker Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 AND... It's gone. You had a good run, old school PS Store. It was easier to navigate compared to whatever we have now. Seriously, the DLCs aren't listed on the game page? I gotta search for it manually? What sort of design is this? What drugs were they on, because I want some of that now. Anyhow, I was informed the Raidou Kuzunoha games were on there, so I was going to try and buy up about 100$ worth of PS1/2 Classics just in case, but I'll have to do it on the console itself. And a few avatars from Steins;Gate and other games... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ran into this as well but another user informed me that you can still buy Avatars from the PS3 Store on console itself but that the Buy or Purchase or Add To Cart button is just invisible. As if Sony could not make this situation worse. I've been downloading DLC and Avatars all weekend. I have also been using this nice program called PSX Downloader Helper to get the raw URLs to backup up extra copies of my PKG files to an external hard drive. I don't know if the files will actually be usable once Sony shuts off Store for good but I'm doing it anyways.
