@Mazrael Your joking right the us got loads of stuff
we paid the same amount why don't we get the same stuff
i'm still waiting to get stuff I haven't already paid for

I still would have preferred the xtra 3free months cause I got LBP the day it came out.
All I saw on the US psn update was people complaining about getting the crunch game free. It's not free we paid to get it free for a year or how long you paid for.
We still don't have a video store.
yet you guys in the US Still complain because we get something insignificant compared to what you get.

Also, at least your guys actually talk to you. We seem to just get ignore. Just look at the posts about the updates. For this week's update in the US there's 284 blog comments with 0 replies. There's 401 comments and already 76 replies on the blog about the EU update. It's like this every single week.

You guys have to understand that you're MUCH tougher to update because of all the different countries. So many different languages and regulatory differences between the countries. I honestly think your guys try pretty damn hard and the fact they actually take the time to reply to you despite all your whining indicates that. There's also a ton of whining on the US blog, but we're basically just being ignored from what we can tell.

@IREWolfman I'm in the UK.. when the US get a crap week, it looks a lot of content to me, I very rarely get to scroll down the 'latest' page.. ok we have more languages, but there's a lot of content we just never get, like with PSone classics, the US easily have 6 times as many titles as we do, and those games would have been translated over 10 years ago

They do seem rather inept in handling PSOne games. The Japanese store has a lot more than we do and I guess we have more than you. But there may also be issues with publishing/licensing rights. Even though those games have are already localized, they still have to deal with licensing rights to republish them on the PS3/PSP. And in some cases those rights may have changed and, again, they have to deal with those issues for each country.

Also, as they've described on the EU blog before, they can only publish the PSOne games that are submitted to them. So if, for example, Konami submits a PSOne for publishing in the US but not on the EU store then there's not much they can do.

I'm glad I only signed on the 3 months deal with PSN+ europe. They've definitely lost at least one psn+ customer for a very long time. Could have saved that money for beer or just buy Deathspank..

Well, I'm glad as long as we get things the same week as the US-store, so it's really nice to be the first for once. It's not just that the contents in the EU-store is sub-par, it's also more expensive than overseas. Regarding PS-Classics I can't understand why anyone would settle for the crappy Pal-conversions we get overhere.

Also, since the EU-store in fact is a whole bunch of seperate stores, I personally thinkt that stores like UK, Scandinavia etc where there is no demand for translations shouldn't suffer because other countries need everything in their native language.

Why oh why did the US-store had to update their security system so that non-US credit cards no longer work... :(
