European PSN update; February 28

Posted on February 28th, 2008 at 11:03 EDT

-Conflict: Denied Ops (Developers Diary 4 – Free)
-Haze (Boss Speech – Free)
 
As always, stay tuned for our North American PSN update later today.

Next: GT5 Prologue bundle coming to Europe

According to MCV, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) is planning on releasing two new PlayStation 3 bundles in the region to coincide with the launch of Gran Turis...

yet another " shaft eu thursday " event, i'm sure i remeber seeing pain adervtised on the eu playstation site using my ps3 browser, giving the month of febuary as the relese date!!, now i'm not that clever ......  but i think .....altho i maybe wrong........THERE ARE NO MORE THURSDAYS LEFT IN THIS MONTH !!!!!  maybe the guy who does the content is so exited to have it cos the yanks have had it for DONKEY'S YEARS!! that he forgot to put it up cos he's still playing it along with all the other content that never arrives!!!!!!!!!

amazing update! must be some kind of a record. anyway, guess they do this because it sells much better in europe. they need to push the people in US. if they can outsell 360 in the states too, than they can count out microsoft in this war, personally, i don't care about this bad update. i've got my games. better luck next week.

I run a gaming website (which I wont provide the URL for out of respect for PSU) so I have many press affiliations and see new PS3 related content all the time. There are always new videos and screenshots released on a daily basis for upcoming PS3 titles. I think regular media updates from PSN with such media would make the PSN network much more attractive for gamers.

stop your damn whinning. do you exspect to have GIGANTIC updates everyweek? i dont and i dont spend my life just waiting for thursday to see whats in the update. i have better things to do, like play call of duty 4, Devil May Cry and ect. theres alot more things u should be doing than whinning over your update. if the US update gets nothing today it wouldnt bother me a bit. grow up and realize that theres more to life than PSN... you all should be playing your games, not whinning over the update.

You guys think this is bad? You should see the Hong Kong PSN store updates. It's like taking swimming lessons in a pond of mud and excrement. You try so hard to keep your head up to breathe, only to look around you and realise what a mess you're in. Haha.

Sure, crap update. But for all the people saying EU gets shafted and NA gets all the good stuff... That's why most people have a US account. So just make one and stop the insanity!

@ undying darkness

ever heard the term 'the sqeaky wheel gets the oil?'

this is the worst update ever for us europeans, is this because phil has left?

posted 6:52am EST - February 29th, 2008

I have never complained about any of the EU updates, mainly because as a lot of people have stated already the PSN is free, so what ever updates it gets are usually fine by me, and I also have a US account so if there is something on the US Store that I want (well, demo wise anyway!) then I can get it. But it has to be said that this update is pathetic. There are videos and games that we still haven't been given in the EU Store that other territories have had for a long time (namely PAIN and HVB) which we can ONLY buy from the EU Store (unless you have access to an American Credit Card) so why are we still being denied them?

In a Global market place this is stupidity. It's like the Aerosmith song for GH3 - a lovely freebie for PS3 owners of the game. Unless you live in the EU of course, as we weren't given it. And no, we can't download it from the US Store as content like that is region locked (like the Xmas songs the US Store were given).

I would love to know the reason behind this. It's not going to make me wish I had bought an Xbox360, I love my PS3 and am very happy with the games I have got but a little bit of an explanation from SCEE why they treat their customers differently to SCEA would be nice.
