so when first party content is delayed people at scee are willing to accept responsibility?
so who held back the god of war collection for five months?
who held up socom for however many months that was?

anyway, my main reason for commenting was to ask when car jack streets is getting an eu release?
is was developed in scotland, by a scottish company.
so why is it only available in the us anyway?

Hi Mike

Any idea when we’ll be getting the new DJ Hero DLC? It’s called the Dominator Pack.

Thanks.

Hi, Eidos and Crystal Dynamics both have told me that they’ve been trying to get the PS1 Tomb Raider games onto the PSN and they’re saying it’s Sony Europe who are taking their time.

Can you tell me when we can expect any of them as America have had the first 4 games for over a year now. :S Thanks.

I don’t know whether you’ll read this or not, but it doens’t hurt to try

“I don’t mind taking the heat from you guys on things that are our fault, but if the publisher does not supply us with the localisations and metadata we need in order to release in certain countries, then we have to wait until we receive them I’m afraid. We have to have a submission process, with strict timings in place, else it would be a nightmare to schedule content releases.”

It just that it feels so dull to wait another 2 – 3 weeks for something I already waited a long time for to be released. And especially if it’s because of some, really unimportant, localisation. If I didn’t want it to be to have the game on my main account, I’d have already bought it from the UK store. Which the Sony callctner guy, kinda off, adviced me to do.
It’s especially hard for me, because I’m not always that excited for most of the content in the PSN store. And so when I finally am excited right now, I’m stuck waiting… *sigh*. Oh well, enough complaining already. Looking forward to the midweek store updates!

When are we gonna get more PSOne Classics? America and Japan have tons of awesome PSOne games that are awesome, our range is meagre in comparison and not all the games are too brilliant like James Pond. We need more PSOne games on the Store.

just wanted to ask, It probs wont get answered but never mind. Just saw some youtube vids of Wild Arms 2, looks awsome, wanted to know if we were getting it ever in this country as its been in america for a while, oh also the first one too, that game was awsome, but as wild arms 2 never made it to release over here I have never played it.
