Sony has a huge advantage in the this feature as they own studios and have a huge impact on the movie industry.

i wanna see all of james bond, spiderman and terminator movies they are big hits and should help the store to get a great start.

El_Colombiano6041d ago

In theory you mean. Sony isn't as unified as you think and as much as I wish...

DaTruth6041d ago

Guess it's official!! Canada will be the only ones without a PSN video store. F*%# the CRTC!

Vitalogy6041d ago

Only thing I'm against is this limitation thing that sony insists to do in Europe. Why release it in only 4 countries? Non sense!

Karum6041d ago

Licencing laws is the reason. There are so many countries with different laws, regulations and legislations.

VidZone was the same but since it launched it has gone on to be released in even more European countries. It sucks that it has to be that way but unfortunately it is.

Mindboggle6041d ago (Edited 6041d ago )

Yh it is annoying. If you dont really live in the main EU countries, the only love you get is from yur own country really. Especially if your the only country who speaks the same language. Like sweden, russia etc

Serg6041d ago

There are around 2 dozen (!) countries that speak russian... Most of them do not have it as their national language, but they can speak russian.

DaTruth6041d ago

Should have read the article... or at least a few more comments!

Pumbli6040d ago

Icelander here, we don't even have a PSstore... :/

Glad I can still sign up for US and UK accounts.

Finally! Although I dunno if I'll actually bother ever buying or renting a film from it :), but nice to have the option.

Karum6041d ago

I'm kinda the same as you but I think I'll probably end up renting the occasional movie...if I want to buy a movie I'll go pick up the Blu-Ray version.

Vitalogy6041d ago

I agree with you too, and probably not even gonna rent but who knows, its already cool to have that option.

Its not a lie to anyone that we can actually get very very good quality movies from the net and stream them to our ps3 with (i.e. PS3 Media Server), but like I read and said, its very cool to have much more options available as possible.

dead_eye6041d ago

i'm a blu ray and dvd addict so this doesn't interested me but it's is still nice to have that option.

Digital-_-Smoke6041d ago

YES SONY YES !!

Finally the europeans are getting some respect

riksweeney6041d ago

Could be worth a punt I guess, usually I just record whatever's on Film 4.

That said, my TV is permanently stuck on Dave...

beeeffess6041d ago

I'm the same.

Though film four is a bit crap lately.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle20d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde27d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy27d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12527d ago (Edited 27d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Relientk7729d ago

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga28d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit28d ago (Edited 28d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199228d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga28d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac28d ago (Edited 28d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman28d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger28d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box28d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion28d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7228d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7528d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit28d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14928d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7728d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
