My preferred platform for playing fighting games is PC (Oh stop booing, there's nothing wrong with it. There are dozens of us! DOZENS!) and that version won't be out till August, obviously. But I also have a PS3 and have basically double dipped on all my fighting games like a crazy person. So I thought I'd just get the update on PSN and then get it again in August.
Couldn't see it on the PSN store, checked online to see when it would be out in my region of Australia. Turns out NEEEVERRRRRRRRRRRRR. Something about the OFLC classification for the update is different than the base game you'd be updating (Maybe Poison is TOO HOT FOR PG) and they can't release it? Which must be a problem with Sony's policy or something, because the update came out here on XBL fine, just fine.
So I guess if I want it, I'll have to buy a UK PSN card and get it off their store, since DLC is compatible between UK and AU blah blah. Oh actually, my copy of the game came from the UK anyway, because it was $35 vs paying $80 here. The bummer with that, apart from the hassle and I guess potential risk of dodgy card code selling sites is that I have to pay nearly $30 to get a card that can actually cover the cost of the update :\
Kind of deflated me on the whole thing a bit.
