    Someone posted this a week or two ago, still pretty cool even though this won't matter much since your still waiting the same amount of time for the update.

    What was the reason for the change? And why are people excited about it? It's just a change in schedule, you'll still be getting the same things.

    @xyzygy:   No official reason was given, but this has been requested. People never like when others get things before them, and some would consider it a competitive disadvantage. Also, it should address the complaints of digital versions of PSP games being released two days later than the UMD.

    I think this is a step to getting it as good as Live. Now all they need to do is update whenever the content comes out, not dedicating everything to a single day release.

    I already thought the same thing, doesn't even really matter - it's a bit earlier in the week I guess but either way you are waiting a week between updates. As someone mentioned this may defeat the 2 day exclusivity thing of Microsoft, or it could just be some week exclusivity now :p
