YourPSP's official PSP Store is Europe's premiere destination for PSP downloads. It's provided us with a great number of downloadable demos and other goodies. However, it looks to be getting an overhaul. What new upgrades might the site be receiving? Full downloadable games, if this page from the UK PlayStation site is to be believed.To the right of the page, links to downloadable demos of Loco Roco, Killzone and Ridge Racer 2 can be found. But more interesting are the descriptions for Wipeout: Pure and Go! Sudoku: "Download full game now."
Sony has promised that the PLAYSTATION Store would one day find its way to PSP. As they've shown with the PS3, full downloadable games are a crucial part of Sony's strategy. Could Europe be the first region to receive downloadable retail games? If so, how will it work? When will it expand to other countries? Was the web version of the PLAYSTATION Store the beginning of something bigger? Stay tuned for more.

Hey, the psp 2 year anniversary is coming up, maybe they are planning a special birthday release?

Wow. WipEout Pure and Go! Sudoku for free? I'd get the Euro edition of WipEout just for the Omega Pack.

I'm a little confused. Are these WIP pages not officially published? Cos the download links are dead.
I already have JPN Wipeout Pure but would get this so I could use the Omega pack.

I doubt these downloads will be free: you will most likely have to pay for them. We can't access any of these links yet because the site is under construction.

@Andrew...
From the site:
To celebrate the launch of the Store, all content can be downloaded and stored to your PSP free of charge for a limited period.
