gay. still no SSFIITHDR :@. why why why must us Europeans be treated as an afterthought :(

aye.....you got Savage Moon dammit......be happy......

is there a release date for Savage Moon for the US?

@brick: Hopefully TODAY!!!

Hmmmm.....SSF2T:HDR? or Savage Moon?....are you serious? IMHO Europe is getting the short end of that stick.

I have both (yay for me) and maybe it's because i'm a SF fan but SSF2T: HDR is a lot better. Online is awesome and gameplay is as solid as it ever was. Savage Moon is fun and kind of addictive but it doesn't compare to Street fighter.

and to add to what frodo mentioned, what makes it worse is the fact that not only are our friends overseas busy flashkicking eachother into oblivion, but so are our friends over the road with their 360's. MS are showing up SCEE big time. At this rate SF4 will be out before SSFIITHDR. One or 2 week delay i could live with, i wouldnt moan, but this is rediculous. They could at least tell us when to expect this timed european 360 exclusive!

awwwwwww no free or Pay LBP stuff??? thats different.....

They said on the blog that they're bringing back the LBP DLC on the 22nd, and bringing it out with a boom.

On the PS Blog, the weekly LBP post said no new content till Jan 22nd.

My guess is to allow people to fully digest and enjoy the MGS4 downloads.

22nd!?!?!?

With that much of a wait they better have ASSLOADS of free shit as well as some decent pay costumes as well....

Yet again no SSF2THD, rubbish update yet again... no point turning on my PS3, maybe next week or the week after... :-(

Sounds like you don't like to play good games, since LBP, Resistance 2, Motorstorm:PR, and Valkyria Chronicles are all available. Bitter much?

EU got Savage Moon ahead of the US, give that a go if you are hurting for reasons to "turn on your PS3."

I feel your pain :(

Much as I'm enjoying Bionic Commando and WipEout HD (and other commercially acceptable good games), I'm much more into my fighting games.

The main PS3 games I'm waiting on are IV, XII, BlazBlue and the incredibly delayed HD Turbo; I really can't understand what the problem is with the European release.

Oh well, looks like this week will be the same as last: MvsC2, Battle Fantasia, Last Blade and Garou. Smashing.

The update is disappointing since the store was delayed last week. I was expecting games such as Lumines and Cuboid to arrive but obviously not. Why does us Europeans always get the short straw?

once again europe is screwed on releases we should just bitch and moan at sony on the helplines until they get this sorted out.

This is pathetic. After a week off i was thinking Lumines or at least Penny Arcade that was said to be coming BEFORE Christmas!!! And still nothing. Why even update?

Pathetic.

Nothing last week, nothing this week. Starting to get used to this.... Betting a tenner the us store has something I want later tonight..

Yeah, it's well pathetic. I think in the future that all games released in US should be released in the EU at the SAME time and vice versa. It's getting really annoying...

Unfortunately the review process (SCEA/SCEE/SCEJ) means the way you think it shouldn't happen is not currently possible.

Until the consolidate the review process that is which they're doing this year so, eventually, it will be possible for a demo/game to be released across all regions simultaneously.

Nonsense, plenty of games have simultaneous worldwide release dates.

wtf hapened to skate 2 - I am genuinely dissapointed most demo's are completely disposable - Ah well EA you can always release a patch for it the day after release ehhh!!? A_holes

Isn't redbull air race out today on home... woohoooo... wot a load of rubbish... SSF2THDR came out on the hong kong store today... we r even beneath them in the pecking order... at this rate SF4 will be out before... Sony is rubbish if M$ havne't won the race then its onnly a matter of time... anyone want my PS3...?

This is what you sound like ......

"WAHHHHHH, I live in on a continent that requires localization for at least 5 different languages. Not to mention that I am also a douchebag that posted something similar 4 posts above this one."

Grow up.

Even though his name is verging on dodgy 'Jer Jer' is right - Mastah_Ninja, you piss,whine,bitch & moan like a spoilt little OCD Monkey.

You have 3 options to help with your problems.
1.Get a US PSN Account & use entropay.com
2.Play on some of the games that are available on BD - Bioshock,R2,LBP,VC,COD5/4,MS:PR,Wipeout HD, blah blah blah etc etc etc.........Too many to list.
3.Be patient Or be a patient and go & see a doctor about your severe case of spoilt brat syndrome.

Your free to voice your opinion but you take it to a new level......... a simple - 'This update is lame in comparison to others' would suffice.

Well, not entropay, that doesn't work anymore.

Entropay works just fine for me in the UK ?? I'm un-sure about elsewhere though, but my Entropay is working A.O.K Matey.

I tried it quite recently, PSN just wouldn't accept it. Odd.

I usually just use ebay and buy a card.

Man I hope that the Brain Challenge TRAILER truly captures the intense brain simulation that the game provides.

No Lumines or SF2 = Rubbish update :(

It's better than no update.

I'm looking forward to the LOTR demo, and to the Endwar add on (a better price than the last one!)

To be honest i've had a couple of days off my PS3 games recently, got back into Monster Hunter Freedom 2 on my PSP. That game is like crack!

...me want LittleBigPlanet goodies...

aw wish there was littlebigplanet stuff

Yes Lord of the Rings !

Oh wait i got it from the US store last week and it's rubbish anyway.

Oh well back to Valkaryie Chronicles.

Sweet

Wow, Europeans are complaining, what a surprise.

Lol that made me chuckle , and I am European , well sort of I'm British we tend to opt out of it .
All these grown men whining about Street Fighter etc need to get a life , get down the pubs and clubs looking for beer and loose women like me.
When its released it's released get over it ! theres so many recent blockbusters you can't have completed them all yet , unless you have no life .

Damian said he's a loose woman. LOL

Mahjong Tales: Ancient Wisdom is also available, at least in the Swiss store (for 9€). However, it is shown only on the front page of the store and not in the "Newest item" section...

i have a promblem with this whole thing 1
1 my butt itchs
2 YOU NO WAT REALLY GRINDS MY GEARS AMERICA YEH FUK U AMERICA AND
3 just have sex with each other and everythings good
yehh ok im all good talk to u guys later

How about the echochrome trophy patch.....Grrrrrrr!

There are two Go!Explore map packs on there now which i think are:

USA & Canada - £24.99
Eastern Europe - £31.99

Both are complete with points of interest, 3D landmarks, 3D cities etc

I wish I could find a loose woman like you, where do you ladies hang out?
P.S. Do people have to look for beer?.....

It won't be on the Store, mate.
