Only is US. thanks sony, as usual we get the shaft.

pwnsause5774d ago (Edited 5774d ago )

dude they confirmed it for a fall 2008 release, by the time that happens, you wont be sorry, there would be tons of video content to get there on launch day. not to mention you know they have to localize everything overthere since Europe is more than just one country and more than one language.

Fishy Fingers5774d ago

EU also gets PlayTV first. It's swings and roundabouts.

Skerj5774d ago

Wouldn't blame Sony for this one so much as the MPA.

BlackCountryBob5774d ago

Its not that Europe is getting the PlayTV first, its because Europe uses a common standard of digital aerial based TV which no other region has; the states does not have a common ground yet.

I sure hope there is no-one surprised about this not working in Europe, if you thought it would then you are obviously a little naive. You should instead be thanking your lucky stars (like me) that Sony have demonstrated how easy it is for them to region lock the PSN but have just locked the video store. They could have done the entire store and justified it but they didn't.

I'm happy because I haven't lost out on the US PSN store.

PLiPhaze5774d ago

BlackCountryBob pretty much nailed it

Mr_Bun5774d ago

Think Canadians will be getting it in the fall as well? I think I am gettin' screwed!

Tomdc5773d ago

it took microst a year to release their video service in europe after they did in america! a few months is good compared to that!

Mr_Bun5773d ago

Yeah, but there is nothing saying that it is even coming to Canada

Ben10545774d ago

complaining got us in game xmb ofter a year, so if we start now we should have it by Christmas 2009

Mc Fadge5774d ago

Even if you have a US account, it's based of IP address (I assume)

But I'm okay with that, it'll come when it comes <333

GVON5774d ago

I was about to ask that as I can't see it on my American account.

whoelse5774d ago

This game deserves a remaster for current consoles. It was awesome on PS3.

Games That Were Bad on Release, But Are Now Great

BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.

Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."

Good list..hoped to see Street Fighter 5 there..and it is.

Vits3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.

darthv723d ago

Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.

I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.

Kaii3d ago

They consider FO 76 & ME Andromeda to be great now 🤭

anast3d ago

Every game in the last 2 decades...

INMATEofARKHAM3d ago

It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.

gunnerforlife2d ago

Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.

S2Killinit2d ago

That game was just plain good game. It didnt improve, it was just good.

gunnerforlife2d ago

I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!
