After a somewhat frustrating 24 hours for PAL gamers, Sony has finally updated the European PlayStation Store this afternoon, bringing with it the highly anticipated PlayStation Network release of Gran Turismo 5 Prologue.
In addition to the Polyphony Digital title, the company has also offered up the usual dose of demos and other goodies, all of which can be viewed below.
-Gran Turismo 5 Prologue (GBP 24.99)
-UEFA Euro 2008 demo (Free)
-Unreal Tournament Map Pack (Free)
-Turok Map Pack (GBP 1.99)
-Eye of Judgement “Bio Rebellion” Card Set (GBP 6.99)
-Reel Fishing (PlayStation game – GBP 3.49)
-Everybody’s Golf: World Tour (Trailer – Free)
-Eye of Judgement (Trailer – Free)
-GT5 Prologue (Trailer – Free)
-Dark Sector (Trailer – Free)
-Dynasty Warriors 6 (Trailer – Free)
It is worth noting that yesterday’s Grand Theft Auto IV trailer is noticeably absent.
"We would like to apologise for the lack of a PS Store refresh yesterday,” the company offered.
"As previously mentioned, we unfortunately experienced some last minute technical difficulties and were unable to publish the new content as planned.”
"However, we have been working hard to resolve these issues and are pleased to be able to let you know that [all of the above] is now live on the UK store."

thats some bs that EU gamers keep getting crap later then us here in U.S. i like many, actually feel for EU gamers, rather then laugh and make fun of them for not getting stuff.
also @ Anth67: theres no way im gonna wait till 2009 for the full game. i want something to tide me over till then, and if u think $39.99 is to much to enjoy something that I believe will likely see updates with added cars, tracks, etc. till the final release, you sir are very cheap.

Lighter note - Decent update for Europe. I'm not bothered with any of it and I don't live there, but hey, at least you guys finally get something before the US.

How can they justify the download of GT5 pro costing more than the blueray?
This is mad in my opinion, its only a fiver but what resale value does a download have and its no use if u wanna take it round to a mates. Im guessing that this has come off the back of how successful the download of warhawk was.
One advantage of the download I like is that you dont need to bother gettin up an changin the disk lol

Demon - I find your comment of me being cheap rather insulting. I just don't justify buying a game that is only here to tide the population over. Why waste 25£ on a game,(or 20 if bought on high street) when I'm a student and have other games coming out in the next few weeks that will be of worth to me. When the full game rolls out next year, I will happely spend the 40£ to play it till my hearts content. And IF you think that they will continuely add new cars/tracks/content to prologue, then you are in for a nasty surprise. sure you'll get the odd treat to tide you over some more. but it won't ever equal to what the full game will be. and what the full experience will be.

why oh why did they release a demo for the uefa game. i just played it and was actually surprised how bad it was. and i was expecting it to be appauling. EA have sunk to a new money spinning low. i know it's all about the cash but if they made a decent game surely it would make more money. they've shot themselves in the foot with this demo!
Also GT prologue is only playable on my main account, my girlfriend has a user on my ps3 and she can't play it because you have to be on the main account. absolutely rubbish. paid extra for more hassle. get the blu ray if you have to.

I've just bought GT5: P on Blu-ray. And I must say, download it instead! Even if you buy it on Blu-ray, you have to install 6 GB ON YOUR HDD! I was shocked, and if I knew that I i would not have bought the game on Blu-ray. The cover says 640 byte or something for minimum installation.

Yeah, killercop has right. Although it's nice to have the cover and the disc but the unexpected installation took awhile and on the back of the cover it only says 256 kb available. And nowhere in the manual does it even mention an install or how much space you need. It only mentions something along the lines of "Make sure your PLAYSTATION*3 system has enough space" (probably for saving). Downloading the update took forever, but I'll blame that on the probability of heavy load. After that the game is pretty sweet! I recommend it for anybody who well.. just likes to drive cars I guess :) Although the main menu is kinda laggy and the online didn't work for me yesterday (I just got disconnected) and the fact that when I wanted to Exit to XMB I lost image and had to reset my video settings a couple of times.
Anyways, a nice game! and yeah well a nice update for EU but still on the lookout for the GH3 song packs?
