Accessing MGS4 DLC

Archive: 18 posts

I bought this pack for LBP, it says that its installed but I cant seem to be able to access it.

I havent beaten the story mode levels yet. Could that be a problem?

I go to the LBPStore, and I see its purchased, I even installed it again to make sure it was installed, and I am still unable to find it. Cany anyone help me figure out what I am doing wrong?		2009-07-12 21:42:00

I press X on the pack, and information comes up but nothing that suggest that I can play it. It just says that It was purchased, then I press X on it, and it just tells me a bit about it being created and stuff like that.

It doesnt give me the option to play it.		2009-07-12 22:20:00

Highlight littlebigstore (or whatever it's called in english) and then tilt the stick right to highlight "my stuff".		2009-07-12 22:21:00

Find it on the store, click it again, and it should be in My Content.


That's how it was for me.		2009-07-12 22:42:00

OMG, Your all telling me stuff that Ive already done. I spent like an hour just "clicking" on it last night. I went to My Stuff, I played all of the story. I practically spent 3 hours playing stuff in order to get the DLC unlocked, Im going to call SONY and get my money back if I cant get this crap working.2009-07-12 22:59:00

Whoa there, partner. Don't be lashing out at people who are trying to help you. So, the prob is that you bought the DLC, but it won't let you play it. You have tried to access the store In-Game, right? And it it "isn't" in a bubble, correct? If you can't access the content through the pic, then it may be a bug. If stuff like this has happened before, then your save file may be corrupted.2009-07-12 23:15:00

Ugh, I am going to try it one more time when I get out of work. I swear when I clicked on it. No levels came up. It just said that the MGS4 DLC(Picture with Sackboy Snake in it) is Purchased.2009-07-12 23:15:00

Quick question, are you selecting it from the LBP Store or from "My content?
Also, if you downloaded it in the background you still have to install it, a small bubble should appear in te "Game" area in the XMB, you have to install that as well.
If those aren't it then it was probably a bug, or there's something else we're gforgrtting.

And seriously, calm down, we don't have to help you, we do it because we want to, so there's no reason to get like that.
1 you didn't give too much info of what you've already done.
2 How were they supposed to know you'd already tried all that?

UGH. Sorry I understand, apologies, too you too Outlaw Jack! and too everyone else I may have offended. Stuff like this just bothers me, and gets me annoyed very quickly when it doesnt.

I checked under GAME on the XMB. No bubbles, besides a few demos, that I have yet to install. I checked those no luck.

After loading the Game, I go straight to the LBPStore. It shows that the MGS4 pack has been purchased. I press the "Square" button, and then it tells me more about it. Then I go to where it says "My Stuff" When I click X it doesnt do anything, and pressing square makes it do the same exact thing as before		2009-07-13 00:41:00

The content has to be purchased from the same regions Playstation store as your game disc is from. For example I live in Australia but my game disc is a US disc so I have to buy all my content from the US store. This could well be why the content is not showing up even though you have installed it.

But I thought LBP wasnt region locked so that wouldnt matter?

And anyways I live in the states, and purchased the game from a Gamestop in the states, so it still should be working. This is actually making me not want to play this game anymore.

Also, How do I tell what region disc I have?		2009-07-13 03:00:00

I got it working. But it involved a very lengthy process between ME, and PS, turns out, my download had failed somewhere during the DL process, but it showed up to me as complete?! So after they removed the entire purchase from my account, the accredited me 20 dollars in order to repurchase the content.

Thanks for the Help, srry for those who I offended(mainly whoever negged me) I was frustratred. It was all love 		2009-07-17 02:26:00
