NA content and Folklore Demo is up! Go! Puzzle is out in Europe.
This is for North America unless specified otherwise and updated as we get more information. Official PR at the bottom of this post. Is there anything I'm missing with confirmed dates?
Also, I'm sorry about the thread title. This news hit Wed. night. http://www.myresistance.net/smf/index.php?topic=32341.0
Insomniac & Sony now say that Resistance patches are not coming until next week, June 7th.
Mod power abuse request on thread title??
Aside from what's below, a bunch of PS1 titles were added to the Japan Store today. However, unless you have a Japanese credit card, you won't be able to get any of them. Japan Playstation cards are also scheduled for release now on June 6th. Importers, start your engines! Downloadable PS1 games are region-free.
Last week in case you missed it:
Joust - $4.99
"Folklore" Trailer in Japan Store from Gamers' Day
"Uncharted" Trailer from Gamers' Day
WarHawk Beta - aka WarLOCK
Firmware 1.8 - upscaling, media server, and Euro backwards compatibility update
This week:
Folklore - Demo in Japan Store
Championship Sprint - $4.99 (another Midway/SOE title)
RR7 - Additional content, some for $$$
Scheduled for June:
June 7th:
Resistance - update - WW servers, in-game cheater reporting added, XMB support expanded (you can see friends list in-game on a seperate tab, not an XMB overlay) - free
Resistance - Map Pack - the maps will support all multiplayer modes and there will be 8p, 16p, 32p, and 40p versions of the maps. 800 yen (Japan price confirmed; the US price will replace this when confirmed but expect $8).
Resistance - Japan will most likely finally get the balance, gametype and other updates for Resistance that America already has due to WW servers.
June 14th:
Go! Puzzle
Other June (Unconfirmed Dates):
MotorStorm - Japan players getting online play - free
MotorStorm - increased friend list limit to 50 - fixes glitch where it will not display any friends in the list if you have more than 30, time attack mode, see game status and more game details in lobby

Lair - Demo
Super Stardust HD
PSP Updates (this week):
PSP Firmware 3.5 - global remote play added

Also, take the MotorStorm dates with a grain of salt. The developers have given out numerous dates for when content is coming out and in what region in a variety of different interviews. Don't shoot the messenger if I'm wrong.
