Grilled at a recent E3 cocktail, SCEE boss David Reeves told Eurogamer that "every relevant title that SCEA announced for America will also be introduced to the PAL territories - most of them day and date." Even newly revealed titles like Ratchet & Clank: The Quest for Booty (pictured, above) will arrive in Europe ... although a Blu-ray version of that game will be available in PAL regions as well.
MotorStorm Pacific Rift, LittleBigPlanet, Siren: Blood Curse, Resistance 2 are all promised to show up on European PS3 systems before the end of March 2009.

There's a blu-ray version of Booty as well?
That seems ... odd.
How many hours of gameplay are we getting for $14.99 anyway?

I would say maybe at least 5 hours since it's a bit short of the actual game.

wasnt lbp slated for October... and the devs said that they could probably get it out in September? If I have to wait until March... imma be pissed.

If there's a Blu-ray of R&C for $15, I'll import it.

We're still missing some early releases, I think we still haven't had that Cash Guns Chaos or whatever it was.
Averna @ Jul 17th 2008 1:18PM
*coughcoughrockbandcough* although i dont think that has much to do with sony

If the blu-ray version is £10 or less, I'll definitely buy it over a download copy.

"MotorStorm Pacific Rift, LittleBigPlanet, Siren: Blood Curse, Resistance 2 are all promised to show up on European PS3 systems before the end of March 2009."
- whoa! That statement scares me a little! I know Oct is before March'09 but this sounds like they are covering themselves for big delays for Europe!
LBP is being developed by a British studio so surely we would get it first...yeah right!
