PAIN for Australia

It’s been an awful long time coming, but PAIN has finally hit the ‘Australian side of the Network’. In doing so, they have also pretty much revealed that there is no need at all not to combine all online Playstation stores into one. What the hell makes me think that? Let me explain:

PAIN came out on the US store ages ago. If you do the math with that post on the 27th of November, it was out on the 29th. Meaning its been almost 4 months for it to get from the US store to Oz. I’m pretty sure I could have paddled a canoe over there with my PS3 and come back in that space of time. I am downloading the game now with all the extras.

The extras include a free ‘fun with explosives‘ mode and the extra characters:

  • Scurv Dogg
  • Hung Lo
  • Cookie
  • Santa
  • Ginger
  • Muffy

The catch is, these were released gradually over time in the US with Ginger and Muffy being released within the last couple of weeks. To see them directly on the Australia PSN Store is pretty much saying ‘yeah, we were just screwing with you guys down there’. Awesome guys, just awesome.
