Sony’s Noel Silvia answers your PlayStation questions!
No this is not an exclusive interview with Noel Silvia (maybe in the future if we can track him down?). We didn’t have to ask him any questions – you all already did. And he’s already answered many of your questions, week after week. Unfortunately, many folks don’t have the time to look through his responses on the PlayStation.Blog.
Noel explains where your PSN cards are (pssst… they’re in the mail):

Noel explains why PSone classics aren’t released more in the US…
Some games have different region-specific publishers:

ESRB only sometimes re-rates games to put them up as PS3/PSP games:

Noel explains the communication dilemma with providing info on release dates for games and firmware (it’s a Catch-22):

It needs to be mentioned that Noel Silvia (and several others on the PlayStation.Blog) have answered many of these questions in the past. These answers I’ve selected today are from yesterday’s “PLAYSTATION Store Update” post alone.
I just want to encourage all of our readers to take advantage of the PlayStation.Blog and the unique opportunity it presents (direct communication with SCEA), because I feel that it too often gets overlooked.

Thanks for that. I know a lot of people miss these responses on the official blog because they hate having to scroll through all of the other comments looking for something official from the company
sadly as always there are a lot of people making stupid post on the playstation blog.
I know, I went over there and left a comment. I doubt that anyone will read it and listen though. I feel sorry for Noel. He was trying to help inform the masses and then they stone him. What are they thinking?
yeah ,is amazing, they cry because no one answers their question and when someone does it ,they cry and yell.
I would like to make something like a : Playstation fan code of honour or something…
So we have a list of fans and PSN users with good manners.
“So we have a list of fans and PSN users with good manners.”
I already have that list… everyone who visits PlayStationLifeStyle.net!
haha jk.
I hope this article didn’t come across as kiss ass, I just hope when I ask a question he’ll be able to respond without sorting through all those BS posts in the future.
There are some BS posts on the official forum.I try to tell people on Kotaku when someone mentions where are the PS1 games!!!,what the issue is..Most don’t understand…sigh
i think that they read all the comments until they get sick of :
‘sony sucks, MS is better, InGame XMB,why PSN sucks..etc etc’
Yeah i agree, i can certainly see us having exclusive interviews in the future
SS, I am so glad you posted this article.
I have been trying to come up with a way to post an article just like this without coming off as too much of a kiss ass.
From reading Noel’s responses, you can tell he is a gamer at heart, and truly wants to let the fans know what is happening behind the scenes.
I have the utmost respect for him.
Its terrible that week after week, even if the updates are full of content, there are still people complaining.
Noel is a asset artist though.He does graphics,avatars,pics,etc
Jeff is the go to man,when he’s around.
Noel should put up the PS3 theme tutorial though.
