Offers a solution to criticisms of 4-5 month delays of PAL region games arriving in far off "down under" locales like New Zealand and Australia, even going so far as to suggest users "download PSP games, it's up to you."
Apparently Sony gamers "down under" in New Zealand and Australia are so far removed from their European cousins that they regularly experience 4-5 month delays in getting shipments of new PAL region game release titles.
The experience has been frustrating for gamers trying to legally purchase copies of the latest and greatest games that are released each month and the issue was raised recently with Sony Computer Entertainment Europe CEO David Reeves at E3, the annual trade show for the computer and video games industry.
In an interview with Buttonmasher he offers some solutions to this distribution lag that are so shockingly honest and realistic that it makes you wonder if there's an ulterior motive at work here.
He starts off by saying that there will continue to be a 4-5 month delay for Sony gamers in New Zealand and Australia.
