"Will be updated further, shortly"  Let's hope a lot "further" and less "shortly".

I guess it is safe to assume the MotorStorm stuff is going to show up on the US store....too bad its online only and doesn't include any new tickets....at least one ticket for the two new tracks would have been good....may have to pass that up considering I have been getting all the other MotorStorm stuff.

yep it's already sucking for the other countries... It's gotta be bad for the U.S. also. Sony doesn't like it's customers.

Why are people saying the U.S. gets the shaft so much?  I find it funny....what isn't funny actually is how the EU store gets the shaft more so than we do here in the states....tho I don't want to shed light on a dark situation, I just don't get why people think the U.S. store sucks so much......pretty much at the end of the day - stuff is missing from all the stores, not everything, but usually there is at least something on "this" store that isn't on "that" store.

Frankly the only store that DOSENT get shafted is the JP store so seriously everyone saying the US store gets preferential treatment, you can STFU. Frankly the update this week is a fair one.

-Crash Bandacoot 2 for PSP and PS3 ($5.99)

-Kane & Lynch demo (free)

-2 PS3 Pain Themes (free)

- FolkLore Add on 3 and 4 (3.99 each)

-FolkLore Add on bundle (5.99)

-RockBand DLC

"Die, All Right!" By the Hives (1.99)

"Interstate Love Song" By Stone Temple Pilots (1.99)

"Number of the Beast" -COVER- As made famous by Iron Maiden (1.99)

-NFS: Prostreet Unlocks

I like this - combining all of the updates into one post. Makes for easier viewing. But.. where's the Aussie store? lol

combing all updates is cool for easy viewing but i just wish they could release all contents unified as one because i would really like the Yakuza demo it sounds interesting..

Wait, what?!? I thought that Motorstorm DLC was for UK only? (Not that I'm complaining since I don't get it in the US regardless.)  Nice update and all but the story really needs to get straight.
