New PlayStation Store 'now live across Europe'

[mankind]

The PlayStation Store update delay issues have ended across Europe, Sony has claimed.
The updated online shopping portal was due to launch in the UK on October 17th yet unknown issues had blocked the roll-out.
On Monday PlayStation claimed the delay was over, claiming on its official Twitter feed: "The new PlayStation Store is now live in all EU territories".
It is believed that the PlayStation Store update is still affected by delay in certain US territories.
Along with a TV-optimised design layout, the new Store features improved hub pages for games as well as an all-new search function.
It also appears to be slower than its predecessor, with what seem to be elongated loading screens and a more protracted journey between selecting and downloading content.
Sony says the redesigned Store will make sifting through its some 20,000 pieces of game-related content "more streamlined and accessible".

Its been live in Australia since day 1 in the US, before it got taken down. I quite like it, but it will take some getting used to

I really like it, easy to find stuff you want and the design is really good. The fact its not all white/ brightly coloured is very good too, as that is annoying.

Only problem is that its not that smooth, it lags a little so a bit of tinkering to make it more smooth is all that is needed.

9/10!

My friend says it took longer to find add ons to games he plays but it didnt group add on content to the likes of Tales of Graces f so he had to manually search, its all good changing the bloody store but why not just do one fix people want and that change the format to the recent downloads list and get rid of demos and wallpapers etc and put them in sections of stuff you've recently bought

The look of the store is great, The load times and missing content is not tho im sure it will improve. The one thing im not impressed with is the fact they Sony have killed off Remote Play for the store (This content can not be used through remote play). That is a feature that im sure ill miss and i would have thought Sony would have wanted to improve not remove.

TBH I preferred the original style. Much faster and easier to find stuff. I hope they leave the XMB as well but doubt it since they didn't with Vita.

I don't like it. I prefer the old style even if it did look a bit outdated. I don't like how it seems to lag or take ages to load. It just seems like it's been forced out unfinished. With improvements it can be good, but right now it's not that great. I suppose I can't really grumble for a free service, get what you pay for I guess.

From the moment it was announced I knew this was going to be terrible..and it is. Seriously it doesn't even run off the XMB anymore it has to load up like a game so it takes much longer to load...BLAH.

I personally hate it I find it slow and I seriously preferred the old style wish I could still use it in fact why didnt they just keep the old style and let us change the background color etc it took me 20 mins to find the DLC to Assassins Creed Brotherhood I even went to search and under A scrolled down and Brotherhood wasn't even listed.

For A.C Revelations 1 piece of content was listed but couldn't be downloaded as it wasn't available.

It's bland...plus you can't preview dynamic themes anymore.

The speed is better since I used it last week. Though I still prefer the old one this isn't exactly shit. Just need to get used to it
