I have no idea what Rocketman is. I really hate how everybody complains about the updates every week. Then the next week forget about it if it's a good one. If there is a good update I'm happy, if not then it's fine because I have other things to do like play games.

Actually this is a content filled update, no doubt. Unfortunately most of this just doesn't perk my interest much. I'm not complaining because there is a demo out to try and I'll give it a go. But i don't have Rockband or flOw or Guitar Hero. I don't care for sports games, and I'm not a big fan of Condemned or Lost Planet. 21 isn't a big deal to me, but I'll check out Hanco*k, and see what thats about. Long story short... some people are not going to get much out of this update. But i still wouldn't call this a bad PSN update, far from it. There's lots of content here so I'll call it what it is. I, personally, just don't have much interest in most of it.

@bloodwarg Hahaha I love when dudes think they're gonna be first and then end up posting second, or even worst third! Hahahaha. I'm glad you weren't cause you added nothing to the community with your comment.

I hope people don't expect to get something that they want every week because that would be pretty hard for Sony to do. This is the first time I've downloaded something in a month and I haven't been too bored.

i would like to know why Rocketmen: Axis of evil wasn't released in the UK when it was released in the UK on XBL.

Outside of that, the updates this week aren't too bad, just wish that PAIN would be released in the UK soon btu it is meant to be this month...

Rocketman could've been cool if there was something else to it- not sure what it needs but I do know it lacks something. Maybe when u get your character to have better stats it can become more fun? Is it that I'm tired of twin stick shooting? Don't know.

I'd have atleast liked to see a Rocketmen demo since I've heard far too little about the game to know if I really want it.

I bought God of War for PSP today, and i was treated with a nice bonus gift. EB gave me a free KRATOS figuerine from God of War 2.  It was so sweet. I absolutley love GOW:CO for PSP and am very happy with the bonus gift. Sony is really generous.

PSN ID: Chuck-Norris909 This Playstation Store update is pretty bad... But it's better than nothing.

Not bad but I want a "hardcore" game demo instead of all this casual stuff.  Where's the good stuff like we used to get, like the DMC4 and R&C stuff?

These RB and GH III money-snatchers don't count as content in my book.  Put some stuff in for the people who didn't want to be harassed with DLC.  I mean come on; $6.25 for 3 songs?!? That's 10% of what the game costs!!!  Think about it guys.  60 songs for $60 and they're charging ~30 songs for $60.  Just sick...

I need Rock Band, but i dont know that spending all that money every week is a good thing.

Nothing for me

I think they should at least separate the RB & GH content to a different tab in the store or something. It's getting to where you can't navigate without passing over the ongoing gobs of music content. Enough already. But anyway, who didn't see this cash-cow coming?

I'm with stovich on this, surely there is a way to hide all the crap DLC for games you don't own? Hopefully the updated store design will give that to us. As for this weeks update... maybe Rocketman will be good. :-)
