Looks like we are shafted again.

And before we get the usual responses about buying the US ps+ I'll get my 2cents in.
Why do we have to jump through hoops to get decent service?
We have one of, if not the highest ratio of gamers per person and we are still treated like a third world country.
I think it's about time we had someone who's actual job is to represent this region as a separate region, not as a part of a continent on the other side of the world who's majority of people speak another language and don't give a crap about us.

Just remember it's sony's right to delete any account that has false details. So all of those fake US accounts that we all have could be wiped without any worry at all to them.
Rant over.

If I recall correctly, the US gets a weekly update, where the EU gets a big monthly update and a few little morsels over the remainder of the month. All of this other stuff may just come yet, patience........

[makobeaver]

Heres the thing... Its not a mandatory service. If you're unhappy with it, then there is a simple solution...
Don't use it.

That being said, we may get this content, but as with everything else - the US runs their stuff their own way.

[mrkillingheidi]

I have a solution.

Stop comparing. Be happy with what you have. If you're not happy, then find something that makes you happy.

If you think about it, purchasing a one year subscription pays for itself within a couple of months.

Enough with the complaining about it.

[adin75]

The next big update for the EU region is on the 5th of October according to the official blog, if we don't get some of this stuff then, feel free to tear up ypur membership

Hey SchvagnumPI,

It appears that theres no point in complaining about the lack of value on PS+ here in these forums. I've discussed this many times here already an the usual comments flow through like you see above.

All you get in return is fanboys who defend sony's crappy business model, with their "solutions" found to be pathetic and useless.

Not once have I seen a response from a sony rep.

Clearly Sony has no problem pulling the wool over most of their customers eyes as is quite obvious from the responses in any thread about crappy value on PS+ for non-US customers.

You're better off just cancelling your subscription like I did and dont bother supporting a company that wants to treat us like second rate customers.

Sorry, but I fail to see the lack in value you talk of. Since I started my Sub I have gotten free KZ3 maps, 2 free Sonic games, Plant Vs Zombies for free, RE: Directors Cut free, LOKoul Reaver free, I could go on and on. And lets not forget the added features of cloud saving & auto downloads & updates. For me Plus has been exceptional value.

And yes, do the second part. Better yet, sell your PS3 and get an Xbox, they will show you lots of love......for a price.
