Capcom did say early '08 and it was originally for last month so it could happen. It's also not that far from the official release date.

Trust Sony? Didn't they totally shaft the US last week? Don't they continually shaft the US on PSX releases? Yeah. Not engendering a lot of trust here. To each his own, I suppose. It would make more sense to to wait until the content is actually announced before griping, however.

Thankfully I have accounts for all regions so I was able to download and play the (Awful!) Club Demo last week.

On the December 20th post on the blog, they gave the list of content and specifically said that there would be no update in the US the week of Christmas.

Is it shafting if they tell you a week in advance? It's not like it was a surprise.

To be fair, they let us know one week prior via the PlayStation Blog.

Wait... "engendering"?

Edit: Oh, it's a real word. :(

During Christmas week, you're seriously going to accuse them of "shafting" PS3 owners for not having new content out? Really? And you wonder why your criticisms of PSN get written off as less than even-handed?

I think it's only a 4 minute timed demo of the first planet. A nice taste, but to get a feel of what the later levels are like, multiply all the craziness on screen by 20x.

Is there anything coming to the US store today? Why is it all crossed out? Or are we just waiting to hear from the Blog?

Whether or not they told us is irrelevant. Why did the other territories get updates and the US didn't? It's not like the UK doesn't celebrate Christmas. We just got screwed. Besides, the competition had new content up that week. Look, it's not that I care all that much. I know how to grab content from the other stores. I was just responding to the "Trust Sony!" that seemed to imply that this great corporate entity always comes through. They don't.

I expect some of you consider any criticism of Sony to be "less than even-handed". IMO, they dropped the ball last week and failed their US customers.

Well, when they say nothing is coming out in a week, and nothing comes out. That would be a good reason TO trust them. Not the other way around.

I see what you are saying, and taken literally, I agree. They haven't lied. But what they did last week was, to me, a betrayal of trust because people expect them to post content every Thursday and they should deliver.

I wonder what percentage of PS3 owners knew about the blog post that detailed the lack of content for that day? A very small one, I assure you. Most folks probably just turned on the system that night expecting something and they got nothing.

But honestly, it's not a big deal. I just think it was poor form.

It was Christmas last week people, cut them a little slack.

In regards to SSHD--this game is freaking awesome. I just got it recently. What is the deal with the update? Aren't they adding custom soundtracks? I love having them in HVB. Anything else involved in this update?

I've gotten so many new games from the PSN over the last few weeks, and I've really only played HVB, Vegas Strip Poker, and SSDHD.

Sounds like I need to get Everyday Shooter though.

Work your way back through the PSN thread indexes to see the banner on the week of 10-18-07.

Declaring a "betrayal of trust" and that they "dropped the ball" because they, like many organizations, took a break during the Christmas week is simply out of touch with reality.

It will be. I just can't say that I'm 100% sure it's this week. Probably 90% sure though.

Wait, Super Stardust HD has been updated to CUSTOM soundtracks? Free patch, right?

Awesome, was my biggest complaint with that game.

Read the OP. You will find your answers there.

Not all PS3 games have a patching infrastructure.

Because that would be far too simple... everything about the PlayStation Store has to be overtly confusing, and hurt your brain everyday to some stupidly high complex amount. Did you not get the memo!?!?!?

Ignoring the fact that they A) updated their other stores and B) their competitors offered content that week is similarly delusional. Many people have to work over the holidays. I would expect that uploading regular weekly content to a service like PSN is something that would fall into the category of things that need to be done come rain or shine, and it certainly appears that the folks in charge of the European PSN felt that way about it. I happen to agree with them. And that's the last I'm going to say on the matter.

I think only everyday shooter and Pain is what's left to go to the Euro store and then we can find something else to moan about, dibs on Go! Skydiving.

Most folks probably don't even realise the Store updates every Thursday night. You overestimate the average non-GAFfer.

Of the small minority who would be expecting regular content updates every Thursday, I'd say a majority of them would have their eye on gaming-related sites (the blog post was mentioned elsewhere on the internets).

In conclusion, Sony didn't ruin Christmas.
