echochrome on UMD in Europe says official site
We suspect the reason for this might be that the European PC Store hasn't really taken off, with SCEE saying very little about the service since it was launched. As for the release date, we've had echochrome penciled in for May for a wee while now, so no surprises there.

good to know...i'm desperate for a physical copy, but not sure how the language barrier will affect gameplay if i was to import one from Japan.

The reason the European store hasn't taken of is because of Sony Europe and not through lack of interest from European PS3 owners.
If Sony were to actually make a better effort with the store's content in European territories then it would be more popular, for example:
- PSN full games being released with a closer date to when they're released in the USA (Pain is a very good example)
- MHigher quality and quantity of PS1 games released on the store. Reel Fishing, Who decided on that?
- DLC for games (paid and free), to have closer release dates to the USA versions (Guitar Hero 3 for example)

As long as they don't pull a Patapon and charge us $60 for the game, that's ok.

The PC Store isn't as popular in Europe because Sony are extremely lazy with content. Why the hell don't we have Wipeout Pure, for example, when the US got it the day the store opened? Where's Crash 2 and 3? Where's flOw? SCEE have nobody to blame but themselves.

Exactly - I am more and more annoyed by SCEE and their approach to the online store. In the UK we still haven't got flOw, Ape Quest, Resident Evil... And the excuses about needing different licences, different laws across European countries, etc, isn't good enough. Just give us the same games that Japan and the US get, and at about the same time! If SCEE did their job properly then more people would be buying from the online store and sales would be up.
And I can't wait to get this game, especially as I won't have to get it through the PlayStation store...

Why do you keep posting a 'black' screenshot of the game when the PSP version has a 'white' color scheme?!
