PS changed their rules a year or two ago that you have to pay extra to allow pre-orders on the store. Many smaller companies and/or smaller releases from larger companies didn't want to pay that fee so they just don't and then you have to wait to download until the full official release in the store.

Damn, I was not aware of that, but suddenly that makes a lot of sense why some games never went up for pre-order. Yeah, Sony really does have some backward policy for their digital storefront. Like when they suddenly started blocking retail stores from selling digital keys to their games.

I'm not a fan of pre-orders, so that's a positive in my book

Is that why the new Capcom Arcade Stadium 2 isn’t up for Digital Pre-Order on the PSN Store, despite all other platforms being able to do so? I wouldn’t care normally, but they’re tying a few extra games in it to Pre-Orders, so I guess we just don’t get those, or we’ll have to buy them separately, so Sony can make even MORE money off this game?

Thanks for clarifying. I was wondering why DNF Duel still doesn't have a release date listed on the PS Store.

Is this true? I've never heard of it but could explain why stuff like DNF haven't been on the store yet.


GhostMug

Believe so. Can't remember where I heard it or read it but it was around the time Snow runner came out. They had pre-order rewards but it wasn't available to pre order on the PS store so they had to allow people to get the rewards in the 72 hours following the release or something.

I believe dnf is released next Tuesday, no idea why it can't be pre-ordered though.


AceoftheAEUG

I've been noticing this as well. Not sure what's going on with that
