The most notable game in this update is Age of Booty. Made by Capcom that is mainly for the casual, online pirate who want to regain some of their past notoriety. You can think of it as a party game which included the help of some former Halo multiplayer developers.

This weeks update brings a lot of DLC content to Europe. Like the US, Europe has the Pain expansion which was delayed.

Our opinion is that Sony is still missing out on a lot of money due to not having released the Playstation Network Cards in Europe, even if it was on a small scale to help the profits in these bad economic times.

Here is the list anways:

Add-on Content

* PAIN David Hasselhoff add-on pack (£1.19/€1.49)
* PAIN Movie Studio add-on pack (£3.99/€4.99)
* Dead Space DLC (listed after the break)
* LittleBigPlanet DLC (listed after the break)
* Guitar Hero World Tour DLC (listed after the break)
* Rock Band DLC (listed after the break)
* 5x Soul Calibur IV equipment customization packs (£0.79 – £1.59/€0.99 – €1.99)
* Star Wars The Force Unleashed character pack 1 (£6.29/€7.99)
* Everybody’s Golf 5 character pack (£3.19/€3.99)
* Civilization Revolution “The Terrestrial” map pack (£0.79/€0.99)
* Civilization Revolution “Elemental” map pack (free)
(more…)

A new category for Capcom will launch tomorrow, it will receive a new special storefront dedicated to Capcom. As well as the new storefront, Age of Booty will be released. Within Capcom Store you will be able to browse through all of Capcom’s digital content available.

Once inside the Capcom category, you will notice that all their content is sorted by title. This allows you easy access to view all content related to a particular game. This includes all full game content, demo and promotional items (themes, wallpapers, etc).

Capcom was awarded by Sony in getting their own section within the PlayStation Store. They had also hinted at a possibility of their own store within Home. 

Capcom is kicking off a new PlayStation Network initiative in which game publishers will have their own dedicated digital storefronts, Edge has learned.

“Out of all of the third-party companies making use of the digital space, [Sony] recognizes Capcom is one of the best partners for content,” said John Diamonon, product manager on all Capcom digital titles.

He said that Sony approached Capcom with the idea. “We’re supporting PlayStation Network like no other company,” Diamonon claimed.

Capcom expects the store to launch in early November. Diamonon acknowledged that other publishers will offer dedicated storefronts in the future.

Capcom recently released well-received digital offerings across online storefronts on Xbox 360, PS3 and Wii. The old school Mega Man 9 launched with much hardcore fanfare in late September, and prior to that the high-def remake Bionic Commando: Rearmed made waves on PS3, Xbox 360 and PC.

Christian Svensson, VP of business development and strategic planning for Capcom said the company has found online to be a prime venue for “fan-focused” content that “would never survive at retail.”

Svensson continued, “…Sony’s taking advantage of–in a very real way–one of the benefits of digital, in that there are multiple ways to sort, search and put things in front of people. In a physical store, that physical object can only exist in one physical space.

“With digital, that object can be highlighted in about 20 different ways. I think Sony is first to recognize that. The more opportunities that someone has a chance to see or be exposed to our content … the more likely it is that someone will give a Capcom title a shot.”

He continued, “[Online's] also really good for noodling features and figuring out what people want, which bring ramifications for our bigger online titles.”

Diamonon added that Capcom is trying to establish a “digital brand” that gamers will associate with quality, and a dedicated storefront is one way of getting products in front of consumers.

PlayStation Network is by no means the only digital storefront on consoles. But Svensson said Xbox Live Marketplace isn’t as conducive to a dedicated store.

“As far as Microsoft goes–how can I say this dimplomatically–there are things I think they’d like to do to promote content in multiple ways, and I think they’ll get there eventually… but they’re not there yet.”

The execs noted how the New Xbox Live Experience is likely the Microsoft’s first priority on the digital front, and will pave the way for Capcom-branded pages.

With PlayStation Home, Sony is expanding upon the menu-based interface. Could we see a 3D Capcom store in Home? Diamonon said, “I don’t know if I can talk about anything on that side yet, but I suppose it’s theoretically possible.”
