    So it's December 21st and I can't download Vietnam from the PS Store. I read that some of the XBOX owners on this forum are already playing it on their consoles.  It's getting harder and harder to support Sony these days.

    They update the PSN store on a different schedule than the Xbox Marketplace. And PC users have been playing this since last week. But if you want to throw a hissyfit I suppose that works just as well.

    It's hardly a "hissyfit". It just astounds me that Sony's service lags behind its competitors so badly. When I use Steam, the product is downloadable the first hour of the day it is scheduled to release.

    @bwmcmaste: Well then just consider 5-6pm the first hour of the day, it is for someone in this world, if you look at it that way the PSN updates the same as Xbox Live and Steam

    Obviously you weren't waiting up for Super Meat Boy to come out.

    You're correct, it has been on the EA store for three days, but if you own a PS3 you are relegated to using the Playstation Store to download the add-on (which has advertised that today is the release date for Vietnam).

    @bwmcmaste:  I'm with you. Waiting patiently for the PSN Store update, and it's just about 7pm where I live.  I still have to download it, and that'll take a million years as everyone like me will be raping the servers at the same time. Considering how much time EA spent advertising this title as being a 12/21 release, Sony should have put it up for download in the morning, by itself. They were able to do that with the Uncharted 3 goodies last week, they sure as shit could have done it with this.

    @DetectiveSpecial: I agree. It is especially aggravating when you consider that the other platforms have managed to deliver it in a timely fashion while Sony has chosen to inexplicably delay their release. I don't usually complain about these sort of things, but this appears to be yet another reason to detract from Sony as a consumer.

    I've just finished playing a few hours of Vietnam, and I declare that all is forgiven.

    Locking this down now, don't see much reason for it to stay open since it's a bit of a non-issue.
