SCEE might just find themselves back in European PS3 owners' good books after next week. PlayStation Day, a press-only event in London, takes place on the 6th of May. The press conference at the event will be hosted by Kaz Hirai and David Reeves (President of SCEE) and will no doubt include some interesting announcements. We'll be there to give you up to the minute news as it happens. To celebrate PlayStation Day, the European PSN Store will be updated twice next week. Once on Tuesday and once on Thursday. Those of you who have become disheartened with the European PSN updates might want to take special note to this line-up. In total you can expect to see four demos, three full games and five add-on packs spread across the two updates. Plus a nice collection of videos, including the PlayStation Day press conference itself, hosted by Kaz Hirai.

maybe not as free radical is a uk company, they might give europe a weeks start. but just google a game store locator and use that as your address and create a europe account.

Siren blood curse... is that the name for "siren new translation? because if it is... it sounds like a horror movie cliche.

This is hardly reason for the EU customers to celebrate improvement to the poor service that SCEE gives.
These games came out in the US ages ago. EU customers should be getting their content about the same time as their US cousins. An online console is supposed to be a GLOBAL SERVICE. Bowling came out in the US 5 months ago!!
