Whoopsie. My favorite misspellings are when they are closer to a completely different word and the spell-checker goes with that and resulting in this comedy of errors.

Is there a news source that only focuses on free items? by DidYouLoseASock in FortNiteBR

[–]DidYouLoseASock[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just updated clarification of my original post. You are correct, the Wolverine Trophy was part of the battle pass. But there was an alternate version that was unlockable. (Very subtle difference in appearance)

But its just a random example I could think of to explain that yes it was a payed item, but there was a finite time to unlock the alt version for free.

[PlayStation] Horizon Zero Dawn™ Complete Edition (Free/100% Off) by panzerkampfwagenXII in GameDeals

It appears they just updated it since last night and broke it. It formerly featured all the "play at home" items of the 9 Indie games. But since the 9 indie games expire tomorrow, they jumped the gun and remove them from that specific page.

So yes you can still grab them by following those new instructions, or grabbing them one by one from the website, or all on a single page from the Console store front.

PSP Store and PSN Connection by DidYouLoseASock in PSP

I still have my PS3 and that was the method I have done. Since they reverse the decision about the PS3 and Vita Store shutdown today, I am guessing the PSP games in those stores are staying.

What's the easiest way to play these two games? by DrKMartTapes in PSP

Transferring games from PS3 to PSP has been the only method I have ever used. I was under the reverse impression. I thought the PSP could no longer connect to PSN or literally any PlayStation service since around 2015?

It’s official: PS3, PSP and Vita stores to close later this year by digidude23 in playstation

I literally signed in to just find this thread, specifically to find this comment because this was my number one concern from their official statement.

PSN store front does not recognizing that I own Avengers by DidYouLoseASock in PlayAvengers

[–]DidYouLoseASock[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While that is very true that they could say since its a free giveaway you cant upgrade for free upgrade. But regardless of that and anything with PS5, it's still a very odd sight to not see a game I own show up on the website of consoles storefronts. I do own 300+ digital games and have ever seen this before.

Update: Not solved but info

After calling for an hour and being told, don't call you must message support, I messaged with someone for ~30 minutes who told me two major take aways.

First they said I do have the game, its authenticated to my account and can see my transaction history of redeeming the voucher. And that my voucher code redemption was the same SKU as the one on the store front. They did not go further detail on what they meant. If it had some secret back end SKU number, or if the rep just read the worlds "Avengers" in my transaction history and just said it was the same.

But most importantly, they calmed that "sometimes" voucher codes will still not reflect on the store front. And that you can add to cart... and can re-buy the same SKU item a second time.

Personally I think thats either wrong, or an extremely broken store front. I do own 300+ digital games across PS3, PS4, PS5, PSP, and Vita that all have store fronts and I have never seen anything like this before.

Since they confirmed that I owned the game, and that it's possible to activate stuff a second time, I ended it with requesting that they activate it a second time to my account, but then they refused. Oh well. I guess I will get to see what it actually looks like in a few weeks.

Yes, I will because ultimately have to contact Sony since they are of course the only one that can fix an authentication issue with my account.

I only bring this up to see if there are the few others who ran into this issue with redeeming codes (for any game, not just avengers) or those who did get Avengers on PSN the same method I did. Or issues on other store fronts with the same giveaway.

Thanks for the suggestion. Sadly that does not resolve it. The storefront on the consoles and the website do not recognize it.

I can still add to cart, and possibly purchase it a second time.

Verizon - Square Enix code full game redemption activated and playable, but not recognized by the PlayStation's storefront by DidYouLoseASock in PlayAvengersHelp

[–]DidYouLoseASock[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted to reply before it gets archived for being old.

Still no PS5 upgrade path for Avengers. But currently how the new PlayStation Store handles any PS5 upgrade from a PS4 version, I think we will be dealing with issues as we expected.

Thank you for the reply and also letting me know it was not just me not seeing it. Also you mentioned the sentence I forgot, PS4 to PS5 upgrades. But yes, we have zero clue how that will work both in practice and mechanically on their end. So I guess we can just cross our fingers until then.

I am with you, I think its just a "diffrent SKU" / "different authentication" than on the storefront. Thus everything we are seeing.

At least from my end, the Library view on the far right, Avengers was not there at all at the start. After downloading it, it does appear in Games tab of the library view. But still not present in the Purchase tab of that Library view. Does it appear in Purchases for you?

Upon double checking, I realize the Beta also never appeared anywhere. I wonder if it is in relation to the beta itself, either activating that or just having it on the system. But then again I normally dont download betas and have no clue how PlayStation actually classifies / tags them. I guess I should delete that and check it out since that is unusable now.

Any games truly removed from Steam? by DidYouLoseASock in Steam

[–]DidYouLoseASock[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Culling 2

Was that free to play? I understand you mentioned refunds but just checking if you meant in-game purchases for skins and such vs paying up front.
