I will be giving you the story behind the new PS store and when it will be coming to your country.
UPDATE: Right guys the new PS store is live in all EU countrys. So go look at it and comment with your views on it. I should be doing a review of it soon.
Right on with the news. About a month ago Sony announced that there would be a make over for the PS store. They also said that it would be released on the 17th of October 2012. So there we are waiting with baited breath for the new PS store, only to find out that it has been pushed back"until further notice" for countries such as the UK or France. This was due to the fact that the when they did release it in the UK there where widespread reports of very slow operating times and the inability to add funds to you "wallet". Due to this they took the store down in the places with the problems and would put them back up when the problems were fixed. I would just like to say now that the store is up in most places at the moment. While I am writing this very pieces PS Europe announced on Twitter that the new store was available in France. The store is available in North America and many other places but it is yet to extend its grasp into the UK.
For me the problem isn't that we don't have it yet in the UK but more the fact that this happened in the first place. I'm sure from Sonys point of view they would have liked a smooth re-vamp especially in the UK where they recently sold their 5 millionth PS3. It does really beg the question, in a company as big as Sony or Playstation how couldn't they have foreseen an event like this? I mean they know how many people use the store on a daily basis, so why couldn't they just test that the store would work.
Well I think that is all for now, I will update this post when the UK store goes live
