PlayStation have just issued the following announcement
“We have just received information that the next PS Store update, which will contain Warhawk, will be Thursday 30th August and not Tuesday 28th August as previously announced. As you know Thursday is the usual day for our PS Store refresh. We are sorry for any inconvenience that the extra 48 hours wait may cause.”
Least its not a case of ” delayed weeks ” like with LAIR
Could’ve been a lot worse
Comment by JohnSketch — Aug 24, 2007 @ 2:29 pm
It’s ok, now I’ll have more time for the COD4 beta.. I didn’t know what I was going to do with Warhawk AND COD4! 48hrs is no big deal for a GREAT game.
Comment by nekon — Aug 24, 2007 @ 2:31 pm
Damnit my girlfriend is flying here the 30th for 3 and a half weeks. I was looking forward to 2 days of non-stop Warhawk before she got here. So do I ignore Warhawk like I planned now, or sneak out of bed at 2 am to play?
Comment by Justin Campbell — Aug 24, 2007 @ 2:35 pm
No problem really… but come on, could have come up with a better reason than that!

Comment by Terry — Aug 24, 2007 @ 2:40 pm
I was wondering that actually, why would it get released on a Tuesday? Ah well…you gonna release at it at midnight on thurs or normal update time?
Comment by Dave — Aug 24, 2007 @ 2:44 pm
@6
We’re told it’ll be as per the usual late afternoon update. Approx 5pm.
Comment by Three Speech — Aug 24, 2007 @ 2:57 pm
owell just have to wait i think it will be released on wednesday at 12am or if its a big file them we could be waiting untill 4-5 am thursday morning
Comment by chris — Aug 24, 2007 @ 3:01 pm
No problem, I’ve preordered the Blueray version anyhow
Comment by Luna-C — Aug 24, 2007 @ 3:03 pm
The amount of delays and quick dates at the moment is a bit much isn’t it? How are we supposed to know what to do with our cash if things keep moving round!?!?
Comment by Arthur The Magnificiant Squirrel — Aug 24, 2007 @ 3:27 pm
Is it just the EU PSN release that is getting put back or is the US version getting delayed too?
Comment by Dougal — Aug 24, 2007 @ 3:33 pm
Not really surprising, it would have been unusual if they’d updated the store on a Tuesday anyway, and this way I get to download Warhawk and Super Puzzle Fighter at the same time
Comment by uberleet — Aug 24, 2007 @ 3:42 pm
Delaystation rules… WTF, that isnt a reason to delay… only can update 1 day?? only eu? thats sux.

I am going to sell my PS3 now and get a 360! SCEE get your head out your ass and get us some fucking content that has NOT been on the US store for months.

Didnt the UK store update on Wednesday the 22nd ?
if it did then why the “it wont update till thursday” excuse ?
Is the american store updating on the 28th ?
Cheers

@16 Warhawks been on the US store for months?
Regardless I do sympathize with your annoyance the US store is getting more things and its frustrating considering the PAL areas are actually the best for you.
Stop fucking us over.

You being sony that is.
Comment by Joe — Aug 24, 2007 @ 5:43 pm
@ 17. The Wednesday update was to coincide with the Leipzig convention. It seems they want to have Thursday as the consistent update day henceforth.
Comment by Three Speech — Aug 24, 2007 @ 5:49 pm
It is ridiculous - a pointless, bureaucratic delay that as usual will see the US get the advantage.
As if we’re unable to retain the idea that Thursday is update day if, on rare occasions such as this, a particular item is released otherwise.
I’m disappointed with you, Sony.

Comment by Bob — Aug 24, 2007 @ 6:32 pm
I admit when i saw the Tuesday date i was sceptical that it would release on that date, everyone knows that Thursday is the update day so this makes sense.
Its only two days guys so chill, i am waiting for the retail version because i want the headset so i have two weeks to wait its not the end of the world…..
Comment by Nathaniel — Aug 24, 2007 @ 7:57 pm
@ Carl - come on, you expect us to believe that you actually have a PS3 to sell? Haha, selling a PS3 because a game is two days late… please, sell your computer and cancel your internet. Pathetic.

Seems like an extremely poor explanation. How about “Our warhawk servers are not ready” or “The pigeon carrier that brought the game from wherever was eaten” or my personal favourite “The guy that copies the files to the PSN Store server only works thursdays”.

WOW Europe left out again, I mean its not like this ever happens EVER.
And Since when did the US have updates on Tuesday, they get updates in a Thursday the same day as we do so please don’t give us this Games are released then rubbish.
Remember for some reason Europe is waiting 3 week for the game in retail, putting the game on-line shouldn’t really have any problems since they are not stuck to typical released dates.
Really did Sony say that Europe was an important region, really if you keep doing this then you will find that the large support you have here will sone disappear, only so many times to can treat this region like this before we move on and look elsewhere.

You need to get your act together at SCEE. All these annoyances keep adding up and the stated reason for this delay is laughable. Doesn’t anyone in charge take a hint? I hate being a paying customer and being treated by manufactured delays. Feed the machines! Don’t let bureaucracy stand in your way! ; )
What about a worldwide store, we get to choose what to download? That would be mindboggling. I guess you business people are all happy drawing the imaginary map of the internet…

Comment by sarge mat — Aug 28, 2007 @ 10:16 am
The “Thursday is the usual day for our PS Store” escuse is not the truth, strangly there has been two updates of the french PS Store today 2 videos about the game convention at leipzig.
My opinion is that warhawk is a very expected game and that the download server can not handle massive american and european download at the same time, so sony choose to do the american another favor buy lauching warhawk first in the region.
Thanks again sony for been so nice with european customers maybe this one could have been the one to make us feel almost as important as an american customer but no you choose to left us behind another time

The words “Sony you killed your PS3, I will just keep playing my 360 come to mind right now”
Its BS they clame they only put updates up on thursday. Because as someone else said here they have gone up on other days. I supose there is a chance that it might go up early once the downloads die down a bit in the US.
Comment by sarge mat — Aug 28, 2007 @ 1:09 pm
It’s a joke really isn’t it.
It’s clearly a server related issue and only one territory could be picked for the 28th..
Adding to the fact we still have to wait 16 days before the BD release it all amounts up to another shambolic display by Sony.
Seriously, looking at the PS3 & 360 on a head-to-head basis, you’d have to be a complete idiot to splash the cash for a PS3 at the moment!
Comment by WILLIAM_BLOKE — Aug 28, 2007 @ 1:39 pm
OUCH! Warhawk got a 65 from PSM.
65 - PSM Magazine
It’s fun enough, but even with the headset, it’s too expensive for a game that you cannot play by yourself, and its balancing issues severely limit what you can do in the game.
Comment by Caleb 117 — Aug 28, 2007 @ 2:07 pm
Why are these delays necessary? As everyone on countless forums has stated updated store material makes more sense to be released simultaneously. For starters it offers fairer gameplay, as everyone has an equal chance to play a game online from the same release date. The EU store seems to be the only place with this Thursday update malarky. This Tuesday the US store got Warhawk and now the JAP store got a new Lair trailer. Its not as if the EU store gets anything special on a Thursday anyways. Isn’t it more enjoyable to go online and find something unexpected on the store? The Folklore exclusive (that appeared also in the US), a pitiful selection of demos already in the shops and a handful of a few trailers are hardly inspiring for me to keep the machine online. Where are all the original download games? Piyotama and Cash Gun Chaos etc. and a slew of PS1 titles have been out in the US and JAP for a while why haven’t we seen them here? Can’t Sony sort out all this ratings, TV display format crap and release everything worldwide like they originally intended? This limited release crap makes me think that someone who used to work for Nintendo has taken over. “(i.e :Limit the releases and force people into buying the limited amount of stuff on offer).

Hey Threespeech, any chance you can ask Sony why they delayed Warhawk because Thursday is the update day? Because Thursday is US update day too, but they have the game.

and then we have the problem Warhawk can only be played under the account it got purchased on the PSN
meaning :
if you got multiple accounts (wife/kids) they cannot play the game in contrarity to all the other games…………..
Comment by Darkie — Aug 28, 2007 @ 8:43 pm
USA= massive market, UK = Diddy Market in comparison. Do the math - if I were Sony I would release in US 1st, as the repercussions of not letting that impatient nation have it 1st would greatly outweigh a handful of posts from English unhappy peeps.
Comment by Obzy — Aug 28, 2007 @ 11:59 pm
btw - looking at the 360 and ps3 head on - ps3 is a beautifully well made piece of electronica that is whisper quiet, powerful and doesn’t overheat. The 360 is a rushed, glitchy, overheating nasty thing. I own both and love many games on both, but am disappointed with the terrible design of my 360. It just locked up again! Only way it won’t freeze when playing Bioshock is to point a freaking desk fan at it.
Comment by Obzy — Aug 29, 2007 @ 12:03 am
and that has want to do with this topic. Just so you know all new and repaired 360’s have vast improvements to them to stop the hardware problems.

I just want to point out to many of the yanks commenting (im looking at you obzy) theat an eu release is more than just in england…….. there are HUNDEREDS OF THOUSANDS of ps3 users in the entire continent and are severly pissed off at sonys lack of comital to bringing the best service to us……. hell, IRELAND has the largest per capita ps2 install base in the world and how does sony repay them? buy fucking up constantly!!!! sony!! i am ashamed of u!!!!!!!! the least u cud do is give us it at midnight like in america instead of waiting all day for it!!!!!!! get ur act together!!!!!!!
Comment by Nonhippyhippy — Aug 29, 2007 @ 3:14 pm
This is such a slap in the face. True, the EU is always suffering these kind of disappointments, but at least in those other cases (usually) there is at least a half believable excuse - localisation, ratings boards, tax etc. In this case there is no such thing - it is clearly nothing more than an attempt to massage the American public, at the expense of an utterly taken for granted EU fanbase.
Notice the comparisons, even putting the EU lateness aside. In the US, Warhawk was released at midnight (and was announced to be so). Here there is no such announcement (the most anyone knows is a vague response to a question on this blog), and Warhawk is not released at midnight (who knows when it will be - no announcement). In the US an attractive countdown website existed, displaying exactly how much longer they had to wait for the game. Here there is no such thing.
There’s such a sense of ‘oh, you want it too then do you? Well alright I suppose, have it a few days later at some point when we get a spare moment. But keep supporting our business and giving us money, there’s a good continent’.
I’m usually a calm and collected, non-temperamental kinda guy but in this case, well… f*ck you, Sony.
