Rumor: European PSN release calendar leaked onto the net

We've seen these roadmaps before, haven't we? The ones we've come across in the past seem little more than virtual post-it notes written down by SCEE staff, detailing all the content they would like to get out to the public within the next few months. Unfortunately, it never seems to go that way, does it? Case in point: compare these two lists from yesteryear. One of which was "leaked" and one of which was posted on ThreeSpeech. Not only do they both list the same games coming out in different months, but some titles haven't even been released yet. So, you'll understand our skepticism at the latest "leaked EU PSN release schedule."

The list, which can be seen after the break, starts off well enough with PAIN and Gran Turismo 5: Prologue being released in the next couple of weeks, as we know to be true. As for the rest, we'll be very intrigued to see how closely the PSN updates resemble this list in the following weeks. Home being listed under July means diddly-squat until Sony confirms it. We're going to save some time (and our poor Sony contacts' inbox) by pretending we contacted them for a statement. Here it is: "Sony does not comment on rumour of speculation." We hope you feel enlightened.

The most interesting part of lists like this are unannounced games. There are a few to be seen, but the one that catches our eye the most has to be Ratchet: Quest for Booty. A perfectly Insomniac-crafted title if ever we heard one. We're reminded of the number that popped up in the Insomniac recruitment video - 0708. Not, as we believed, referring to a demo for Resistance 2 but, perhaps instead, a release date for a smaller PSN title in the Ratchet and Clank universe. It all seems to fit together. If we hear anything more, we'll let you know.
