The EU PSP store has also just updated with "The Cryptics" for £1.49, and there's a Metal Gear Solid 4 "hagane" PS3 theme on the Japanese store today too.

Finally there will be a Singstore update tomorrow. Details are here.

Stores are opening in 2 hours and a half... I'll have time to try Monster Madness before entering the realm of MGS4!:lol

Edit:
:lol The answer to my Fatal Inertia EX question was 2 posts before mine. Great, I should learn to read now...

Nice thread GR

fatal inertia ex has been confirmed for June 19 release along with the demo.
Interesting info from their blog:
http://www.1up.com/do/my1Up?publicUserId=5940450

With the extra time that we had for the North American release, we were able to substantially improve network connectivity for online matches and eliminate some rare game freezes as well.

Which sort of explains the delay from the Japanese store.

Europe also got Ape Quest today, aka "game that's only got two reviews ever"

The PSP game ? It's been on the American stores since January 10 and on the European ones since May 1.

Ah, there's your mistake. ;)

Ape Quest has been there for a while, even on the Euro store - might be new on the PC Store though.
 
Can't wait for Wipeout XL. Does anyone know if the PSOne games on PS3/PSP load faster since they reside in the HD/Memory Stick?

Wow, they listened. That might just tip me into a FI buy at some point. Probably not at initial price, assuming it's going to be $30 or so.

EDIT: The WipeoutHD vs. FI meme is ridiculous. Other games of the same genre/subgenre get released against each other ALL THE TIME. The only reason why WHD isn't out yet is because it's not ready, just like it hasn't been through the last 6-9 months of delays (remember when this was supposed to be a 2007 game?)

I've always wanted to try out the Sonic demo, but couldn't find it on the the USA\EU store, what happened to it?

Also, when does the Naruto demo come out?

Gotta admit that I really don't give a shit if this week sucks or not thanks to MGS4. :lol

Of course maybe this will be the week we get some PS1 games, Sony is crazy like that. I certainly wouldn't mind if this is the case.

Hey, I'm awake right and not having delusions right?

Yes! As I wait to pick up my MGS4 LE at 10am, the banner is perfect. Even if the store gets nothing worthwhile, it won't ruin this day or weekend :D

Am I the only not being able to find the Monster Madness demo on the euro store?
Or is it supposed to hit the store a bit later today?
 
Piss poor update from sony. That's all i expect from them today. but my god as long as there no delay I'll be okay BUT fuck man. ONE Ps1 game for the US PSN store PLEASE sony.

Maybe it's not out in every region? I had no problem finding it in the german store earlier today. It was the first item under the "latest" tab.
 
MGS4 release is the only reason I wouldn't mind another non-wipeouthd week




but these PSN updates are just terrible week after week

I just rechecked the Australian, UK and French stores, and none of them had the Monster Madness Demo.

I'm sure I saw it before! Seems it was taken down?

Also, noticed that Ape Quest is in Europe / UK stores and NOT the Australian one. It's been rated though!

[PSN/XBLA] Load Inc attending Leipzig – you should care!

For the third and LAST time, Load Inc., the biggest of the small Paris based development studios is coming to see you in Leipzig for the GC, the leading European video game industry get together. Yep, you!
Load Inc. representatives (Tom & Denis) will be presenting their soon to come Xbox 360 Live Arcade and PSN game: “WCTYY” (acronym for “We Can’t Tell You Yet”).
Why should you care about downloadable console games? Read the news!
It’s hot, happening, easy, growing fast, hip, hard core and family oriented. You can buy awesome games from your couch!
It is the reconciliation of your wife / girlfriend / dog / mother in law with gaming!! Come with us and be rich and famous.
On top of things this great game (take our word for it) will also be featured on the Oh so sexy PS3 through PSN service.
Load Inc. would love to go there with you. Meet them for 20mn tops. See what they have to say and decide for yourself.
“We are looking for a strong and dedicated partnership. Xbox 360 Live Arcade and PSN need original ideas that make these superb systems shine. That’s exactly what we have in stock. (…) We know Microsoft & Sony enough not to aim at second best” says Thomas Leinekugel, VP Project Manager (he was sober), “look at what we’re doing with ToW today, we specialize in downloadable AAAs”.

Can we get larger versions of the images with the flags in the OP?

I want to use those as User images on my PS3 for the various countries accounts I have, but the existing ones are too small.

Or is there a site out there that has user images with the countries? I know sometime back someone made some rounded country logos to go with a theme...
