    The EU update is delayed due to a "minor technical problem."

    My theory....europe isnt getting the update yet becuase of a time recession caused by the lhc (JK, lol, many people are freaked out about that reactor, myself included)

    Guys, just make a US account. It's a lot more fun than complaining about all the crap EU updates.

    This is a pretty good update I think.  I love the game PAIN though so **shrugs**.  good price for the new level, I was thinking it was going to be like $10.00. lol  I am also waiting for the download to finish on Motorstorm 2, I have been waiting awhile for this.

    Meh. Not really that great unless you;re  a Qore subscriber. The only thing worth anything is the Motorstorm demo. Not that I'm hating on Qore... Maybt the Rock band tunes will be intersting, I should toss in the game and check the samples.

    OMG finally All That Remains 4 Rock Band!!!!! This is awesome and their new cd is only a week away. IMO best metal band besides Killswitch Engage. If u like metal/hard rock that sings about hopeful and inspirational themes, check these 2 bands out. Awesome music and awesome shredding!!!!!!! great update

    Good lord this MotorStorm 2 demo is downloading slow.  Is that typical with Qore downloads, or is the traffic just more than usual?  By the time this thing finishes, MotorStorm 3 will be on shelves!  I think #9 is onto something.  That doomsday machine in Europe is sucking up all the bandwidth, or slowing down download time ;)  OMG, what if that thing doesn't destroy the world, but just slows down our internet speeds to where we are on 56k again, or works 28k!?!?!  This thing must be stopped!   BTW, anyone know what that spaghetti western music on this episode of Qore is from, or where I can get it?

    wow played the Motorstorm demo. not impressed really. yeah the graphics are improved, gameplay seems a lil speed up, but still has the same gay physics (hit a jump and you could swear your gonna float away into space you get such looooong hangtime)

    I live in the UK and have a US account as the EU store is usually behind by a month or sometimes just does not get the content our US buddies enjoy. So I was a bit pi**ed to find the Motorstorm demo is for Qore subscribers only. Isnt this a little like paying for demo's? I know you get much more, but only available to subscribers?  come on! Maybe its a way to stop us Europeans from downloading stuff before they want us to have it. Just really annoying.

    @ 30 you can purchase stuff off the USA site if you use a pre-paid credit card (do not register it with your name and address) then link that to your US account and Bobs your auntie, thats how I originally got High Velocity Bowling and 1942...... BUT dont buy downloadable GH tracks this way as they ARE region coded I learn tthat the hard way.

    Do the Motorstorm vehicles explode every time you touch the gas again?
