Little Big Planet MGS DLC Delayed

Dec 23rd 2008 - 10:12 PM

Despite Media Molecule creating what is perhaps the most awesome DLC content ever, for any game; Sony have managed to disappoint the community by not releasing it on the day on which they announced they would.

European Community Team Leader ‘Muster Buster’ has told European Community Forum members that the content will be released “Not today, cant confirm tomorrow.”.

Naturally, this is a huge disappointment for the LBP community. Many players have been checking the PlayStation Store all day, waiting for the content to arrive. Again, communication is an issue for players here, as it is unlikely that the decision not to launch today was made late in the day. A simple announcement would have been fine.

With Muster Buster saying he can’t even confirm it’s release for tomorrow, we wouldn’t be surprised if the release date slipped to Thursday, the day when the PlayStation Store gets its regular update.

Will it still launch in U.S and Asia? We’ll update with more news when we hear it.

[UPDATE]

The U.S has now received the MGS DLC on the U.S PlayStation Store, Dec 23rd 6pm E.S.T. We can’t confirm Japan or other regions, but Europe is still MGS-packless, for no significant reason.

SCEE did inform press that the pack would be released in Europe on Dec 23rd, it was confirmed when they announced their pricing for the packs across Europe.
Interestingly, SCEE sent out a press release last week saying that there will be a Wipeout HD demo on the European PlayStation Store on Christmas Eve. If they do update the store tomorrow, then there is a good chance of the MGS packs arriving at the same time.
1am update perhaps? Maybe that’s hopeful, but keep your eyes peeled in Europe.
Americans… get downloading!

[FINAL UPDATE]

The MGS DLC is now available on the European Store, 12 hours later than expected.

Another kick in the f*ing bollocks to us, blindly loyal, Europeans.  Seriously, I’ve read that the PS3 does really well over here, so is that why Sony seems to be going out of it’s way to ignore us, thinking we’ll put up with this shit forever?

And once again I’ll mention that Mm are a UK studio, it must piss those guys off so much too.

And so, after a stupendously disappointing day, let me proclaim Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night! Except anyone from North America…

It sucks this is being delayed for Europe. :/

Anchor

Sorry, for doing this but, HAHA YES!!! U.S. GOT IT!!! IT IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!

Everybody relax. The MGS content will come soon enough. The Euros need to calm down and not be so down. Video games are supposed to be fun. It’s not like the Euros aren’t getting anything at all. The MGS pack will come soon enough.

Anchor

umm is the add-on safe ? My friend downloaded it and he said it erased all his save file and he bought it and dosen’t even have the level….. and I’m saying if it would be safe to buy it?

Anchor

Shafted by Sony again. They may as well include a tube of arse lube in every PS3 they sell in Europe. What a bunch of tossers

Anchor

SCEE seems to be packed to teh rafters with incompetant workers.

Sack the lot of them.

Anchor

It’s already there in the PS store (In Europe)

It’s awesome

Anchor

=/ this sucks!!! I can’t SAVE THE GAME!! there’s something that i can do? =(
