Capcom's 1942 hits European shores, alongside a FIFA 09 demo and Pain packs.
Published 08/09/2008 at 22:45 by nofi

This week you can look forward to the full game (and demo) of 1942 Joint Strike, finally hitting European PSN Stores on Thursday.  Alongside that, look out for a demo of Elefunk and a fully playable treat in form of EA’s FIFA 09.

And in terms of add-ons, it’s Pain time, with the Amusement Park weighing in at 5 Euros, alongside the three new characters we’ve mentioned before.  Look out for the onslaught of Rockband downloads, too, although we don’t know which bands yet, sorry.

Video wise we’ve got FIFA 09, Tomb Raider Underworld and a couple of vids from EA in the shape of Mirror’s Edge and Pure, plus a huge rack of The Last Guy wallpapers.Finally, we’ve been told to expect something Play TV related, although we’re going to need to get confirmation first as it might be limited to a few territories.

And if you’re thinking about WipEout HD, a little birdie tweeted in our ear that it’s only a couple of weeks away.  We’re hoping for something official soon, though.

Via the EU forums.

  1. Awesome, Pain finally and a FIFA demo. Also more about Mirrors Edge. Cool.

    Nice and fast this week nofi


    • Mirror’s Edge is from E3, I think.


  2. Also note that this list is subject to change.


  3. Nice and fast is an understatement, it’s 3 days early. Impressive.


  4. if you were to give the little birdie a squeeze, any chance it will squawk more?


  5. Can’t be too long for Wipeout now, if only because I don’t think they’d want to release it too close to Motorstorm 2.

    Looking forward to trying FIFA09. Not a bad update really.


  6. 11/09/08, the prelude 03/10/08
    Fifa 09 the true 2nd coming

    Cant wait for this, and I’ve got Thursday off


    • There is a chance, albeit currently a small one, that there will be a TSAN FIFA league. Tried it once before with 2008, but it didn’t really work out.


      • I am a pes fan myself, dont normally bother with fifa, but you know me where there is a TSAN game, im sure to be there.


      • Wicked

        As I’ve got older my gaming abilities seemed to have diminished, and Fifa is just about to only game I’m still half decent at

        A league will be good if there’s enough people with the game interested, hopefully the demo does the game justice, as on footie games they sometimes don’t


  7. Wow your just Now getting the Elefunk demo! we’ve had 4 ages! I know you guys say there’s a difference in the U.S. and European stores, but i never imagined it was that bad! Sony you’ve let some Europeans down:(


    • er…i downloaded it from the yank site eons ago…but yes your right..we are usually piss slow (hence my us and jp accounts) n receiving stuff…apparently ‘its all changing’


  8. Videos… Check…. 1942… Check… WipeOut update… Check…
    WAIT!!!! WHA?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WIPEOUT!!!!!
    I LOVE TO GET THIS SEIZURE INDUCING GAME!!!! YAY!!!!


  9. You have absolutely no need to apologise for not knowing the rockbands d/loads, jeez anyone that gets store content up this quick, should not have apologise for anything, i know its subject to change but your not normally that far wrong. ;)


  10. Oh I almost forgot:

    Where the feck is the PES 09 download? I’m sure I read somewhere that it was coming on the 11th of Sept which would have meant head to head demo-age with FIFA. Have Konami dropped a bollock with PES again?!


  11. The store hasn’t been updated yet due to “technical difficulties”


  12. WERE IS THE UPDATE!!!!! :(
