  1. Renting could be useful for the PSP.


  2. Looking forward to this, hoping to get some good films!


  3. before christmas now?
    whose wording is that yours or scee’s?


  4. Half Blood Prince pl0x, tyvm


  5. Awesome =D
    Some great film names mentioned


  6. Im almost sure they released this info ages ago and still the important stuff, when, how much and what quality will the movies be has not been released.
    I agree with most people that they need to be cheaper than blu-rays other wise there isnt much point. We regularly rent from Blockbuster and if its more expensive then I doubt I will use it.
    On the back of those negative comments I just rattled of I think the service is a great thing for the EU PSN and I hope it will be well recieved by the masses in hope that it will encourage them to get some TV on there, like Flash Forward and Fringe.


  7. AWESOME I cannot wait but then again need to know the price before deciding. Suprised to see Bruno being listed lol it is indeed a very naughty funny film lol. (It’s bad but funny)


  8. I vote they name it “Playstation Entertainment Network Interactive Screener”.
    Been waiting for this service since I got my ps3. Movies were one of the main reason I got it instead of a 360. That said without any tv or prices that compete with lovefilm I probably won’t use it all that often.


  9. Awesome-sauce. I haven’t actually seen Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs so I may contemplate getting that. I’m so glad we’re finally getting it soon; it’s one less thing for UK PS3 owners to moan about on the US PS Blog :D

    Now about Canada…


  10. good move Sony hope it is ready this week


  11. Anybody got any ideas on the prices we’re going to have to pay?
    Because that’s going to be the clincher,,,


  12. While, Yay! for the video store itself, the list mentioned seems to be all mainstream, blockbuster no-brainers..  Is that what we’ve got to look forward to, or will they cater for people who prefer movies that make them think?  

    Im hoping they’ll be aiming at as wide a demographic as possible with this, because endless sequels and remakes are not really my bag..


  13. Looking forward to trying this service out, probably more the rental side of things, subject to cost and download time.


  14. all i want to know is, will they have mega shark vs giant octopus? :)
