Got the MGS theme from japan last week. It's one of the nicest themes i've seen.
wilboss @ Jul 3rd 2008 8:32AM
So no Echochrome as promised then, makes me wonder why Sony bother posting release dates on their site...
Peter Graham @ Jul 3rd 2008 8:34AM
I read on Wikipedia that Echocrome was supposed to be out this week. Its getting a bit ridiculous the psn store. I always find my self waiting and hoping for sum decent content but instead sony just flings the biggest load of garbage on there. They talk about quality over quantity. Well there is hardly any quality titles on that store what so ever.

So, no Echochrome as promised then?
Makes me wonder why Sony bother publishing release dates sometimes...

F**king comments system, why didn't my first comment show up after numerous refreshes, then appears the second I re-post, grrr...
darthug @ Jul 3rd 2008 8:49AM
No Echochrome, but here's a theme to keep you going. Great, thanks for that!

Europeans and folks in the UK:
Have fun celebrating US Independence Day with your Guitar Hero III July 4th Holiday single.
Gavin @ Jul 3rd 2008 8:56AM
Why not just sign up for an American account and get it from there?
Nathan @ Jul 3rd 2008 9:02AM
Because the US store won't take UK credit cards, and buying/importing the PSN cards costs more than it's worth.

Hi,
ATTENTION!!!!! ATTENTION!!!! :) For those who don't know!!!!!!!!
This is for European folks (people wit EU accounts). This is how you can purchase games and add-ons from American accounts.
You can make "Prepaid Virtual VISA account" here:
http://www.entropay.com/
What this do? Well it's like its says. It is VIRTUAL VISA card. All you need to do is go to their website,create account.After that you have your virtual VISA card.
You transfer the money from your usual account to "VIRTUAL VISA Card" (amount absolutely up to you).
Then you go to American PSN and purchase what you want. I'm doing this from the launch of PSN. Got the Pain,Echochrome,etc... from the first day they where released on American PSN.
This metod function for all of PSN stores.
I hope I helped for those who didn't knew this,and don't want to wait till games are released on EU PSN.
Happy playing.
My PSN ID: HESA1
Feel free to add me in your friend list.

Of cause no echochrome. They told us it would be here, so of cause it isn’t. Seems like you guys forgot how Sony works these days. Promise, break promise, promise again, silence…
But then again, I shouldn’t complain, cause we got the 2.40 update where they finally copied some good stuff from the 360 – oh, that doesn’t work either?
Eggy @ Jul 3rd 2008 9:23AM
Works fine. Great first post though, just what we need more whining babies
uh-oh polio @ Jul 3rd 2008 9:29AM
Ive got echo chrome and 2.4 so idk what your complaining about.
Nathan @ Jul 3rd 2008 9:01AM
Apparently echochrome (PS3 version) is 10 July according to the official release calendar. Pretty lame it takes so long to "localise" this game but we're used to the poor service from SCEE.

wilboss @ Jul 3rd 2008 9:12AM
Thanks Nathan, I guess they just changed that as it said 3rd July before!
afgavinstan @ Jul 3rd 2008 9:35AM
Those Buzz! DLC packs are a bit pricey. Trust me to have around £2.50 in my wallet, and nothing in my bank account. Just my luck...
Bearskopff @ Jul 3rd 2008 11:30AM
Anyone know if Commando 3 supports trophies?
Nick @ Jul 3rd 2008 11:48AM
Why are Europeans getting an Independence Day themed song for GHIII? Did Activision forget that July 4th isn't a worldwide holiday? Unless there is a separate holiday for Europeans on the 4th that I don't know about, I'm pretty sure that you guys don't want to play some red, white, and blue patriotic American shit.
wilboss @ Jul 4th 2008 3:51AM
I'd rather have the track, whatever it is, than nothing. Which is what Europe was getting to start off with...
No MGS4 theme on the store as far as I can see.
And why have they bothered adding a Haze Launch Trailer when it's been out for weeks and by most accounts is pretty pap?
JaffaBoy @ Jul 4th 2008 5:04AM
I don't want Elefunk themes or wallpaper... I want the damn game!!!
Buzz packs.... too much at £3.50 a time - should be priced lower and I'm sure there would be more 'impluse buying'.
Thanks for the tip HESA1 about Virtual Visa... but still a bit nervous of signing upto a site I've never heard of before and who I'll need to pass my real card details. If only Sony allowed PayPal payments...
