I’m with the people here, I find it really sad that you keep pushing SOON on everybody but US.

I’m honestly starting to feel like PS3 and Europe just don’t mix. And it’s not just you guys, it’s EVERYTHING that is PS3, video, demos everything.

Oh and one other thing is that I hope the HVB update doesn’t take too long to release in the European territories. Because it took Sony 7 months to transfer the PAIN game from North American version to the European territories. That wasn’t pleasant at all.

Thanks Josh.
I just had my birthday with mates. They enjoyed HVB but I was expecting the update sooner so there is more fun :). Honestly, there aren’t that many games that support 4 players. All I can say is my friends loved it. I invited my friends over and I have a bunch of games and one problem is that they either support one or two players which makes the PS3 more boring. I am going off topic here but Unreal Tournament III on PS3 sucks, honestly. Its only 1 player or online. Lucky 360 owners get 4 player splitscreen. To make matters worse The Orange Box… Team Fortress 2 on PS3 doesn’t work anymore, it seems EA have shut down the servers. I want my money back NOW. Now I may need to buy PC version because of the lack of support on the PS3 version of The Orange Box :(

Anyway thanks guys and I am definitely looking forward to the update!

Cheers,
Ivan

Well, there aren\’t too many posts right now, so it is easy to keep up with it. Please keep the faith that you WILL be able to play HVB Online in the future. We are still committed to bringing it out in Europe and Australia!

Hi Ballman77. I wish that I could give you a definitive answer on that. Unfortunately, I do not know the exact date that it will be available to you. All I can say with 100% certainty is that we are working very hard to get the EU update to our friends overseas as soon as possible! We really do appreciate your enthusiasm for this. :)

What can I say? I\’m on a question answering streak! (though this will probably be the last one for a while as we dive back into the shadowy recesses of game development…)

Good luck with your classes X1rtam. Be sure to invite your friends over to play HVB offline with up to 4 players!

Nice job answering every single question (Some more than once!)! I have to admit that I’ve yet to try out a basketball game on my PSP. Maybe I’ll try it out sometime soon. You know, in between classes or something. Ugh so many classes…

Oh and of course I tried out HVB online, it’s very fun and the games take a maximum of ten minutes! :)

Whoops! Forgot to answer your question about the roster updates. You should not expect a constant stream of updates to the PSP rosters. Although there should be some through the season, unfortunately, I can\’t tell you how many (because I don\’t know).
