Sigh, does anyone know if sony is sticking with the MGS4 bundle? I’m hearing mixed things from different people and I really want to purchase a PS3, but i can’t find the 80GB MGS4 bundle anywhere… info would be much appreciated.
Yet I remain confused as to why the UK store doesn’t get the MGS database :(
American PSN users you are soo lucky you have SCEA and that they respect their customers because im sure you have heard it’s a different case over at SCEE!!
We are constantly shafted by SCEE getting content months later after you guys get with no good reason as to why we had to wait, We also get lied to and excuses made up such as the time it takes to translate etc
This is a load of trash seeing as you have the MGS enclopedia and England also speaks english so i don’t see why they couldn’t of given it to us.
You are also lucky too be getting the 80GB MGS PS3 cause all of us over here would kill to buy a proper one for the SCEE teritory, Also think yourselves lucky that you pay 2x less for your hardware and software than what we do.
At the end of the day we have been treated poorly and now it is time to change! Im sorry if you american people hate us english people moaning on your blog but it is the only way we can get our message across
There is no blog on the EU website and if there was it would be full of complaints but then again no one would bother to anwser them.
Employees of SCEA please see that there is a big problem with the SCEE store and please try and do something about this because SONY are starting to lose their good name in the UK
Looks like a great update especially the Metal Gear Database!
Finished Metal Gear Solid this week and will replay it this weekend! Thx for the MGS Database!!
Hey guys, I love the blog. Being from Europe I wish your friends at SCEE did the same.
Overall I feel like european customers are really let down. They get charged 50-60% sometimes a 100% for similar content… that is if we get it.
I have the feeling that the MGS Database is not going to make it to Europe any time soon. :/ Not to mention Echochrome that’s apparently only getting a UMD release over here for a mere 30€ (45$ that’s right) or Patapon that’s 40€ (60$, you’re correct).
Pricing is ludicrous whial some of the cool stuff like the MGS Database never make it to our region.
I understand there are legal issues and that pricing depends on ditribution. But as far as PSN is concerned pricing and content release policy in Europe must change if you guys want to push the service forward on our old continent.
Hmm… I purchased the Oceania course, but I don’t see it. Do I have to unlock it in challenge mode? And I bought the characters but don’t see them either.
I have a little over 3GB of free space left on my PS3 but when I try to download the NCAA 09 (1.5GB) demo, it tells me I don’t have enough space left on my hard disk.
Can anyone offer me some help?
Maybe some space is reserved for caching?
I’ve read on a dutch website that the European version of the MGS database probably is coming next week. They contacted Konami Netherlands and they gave this answer.
That PAIN game looks like TONS-O-FUN!
RE:152,155,etal.
Sony, what’s up with you guys screwing our European brothers and sisters like that?
@157
Games are downloaded in a compressed (“zipped”) format. While a file may only be 1.5GB to download, it might actually require 3GB to decompress (or “unzip”) the file. The unzipping happens during the installation process.
Can anyone offer some help? Yah, delete some of the stuff off your PS3 hard-drive.
Get rid of stuff you rarely or never use.
Jeff, you should start a PlayStation.blog MGO clan.
I like that. Once I beat the main game (been real busy, on Act 4 now), I\’ll do that.
