Playstation Network - General Discussion Thread

Do we usually wait for wallpapers though?

We do usually get the games a month or so after the US & JP so I suppose it makes sense for the wallpapers to arrive here a month or so later too as they are there to publicise the games.

All I ever do with the wallpapers are download them, leave them on the hdd for a while and then delete them anyway.

I honestly think the delay is, for the most part, down to a desire to make sure that demos, videos etc. are released at a time that's relevant to the full release of a game. Too early and people might forget about it, too late and it probably doesn't matter.

That's my guess anyway, for most things.

Exactly, its not rocket science, but people still keep on about it constantly.

The only real issue is with the PSN original games, although we have to realise that they need to be translated to the EU languages before they are released over here, which isn't a quick and easy task.

Anyone gonna get geeky with me when my EoJ comes out? I know Edge gave it a blistering 4, but I want ze camera and secretly wanna play this... bah, my secret is no more!

wowzers! Mine's gonna be a while I'm afraid. Ordered mine from work at discount price. Don't think I'll get it until a week or so Wanted to guage if anyone was getting it aswell.

Definitely interested in seeing it in action, but don't think I'm willing to part with money to do so

I've been really tempted to pick this up, but I feel like I'll be wasting my money as I can't really see me using the camera for anything else.

I'm definately getting the camera straight away but don't see myself laying out for the game before Christmas due to a growing shelf of unpaid games and a shrinking spare cash issue!

Will get the game later though.

Straight from Playstation board.
