The USA got the PS3 video download store in 2008. In parts of Europe, it launched in 2009. As is the way with many things video game related, itâs only this week launching in Australia.
âHundredsâ of movies will be available when the service kicks off this Thursday, in both standard and high definition, with rentals starting at AUD$4 and purchases at AUD$8.
Some of the movies available at launch include Avatar, Capote, Dreamland, Inglorious Basterds, Up In The Air, Ninja Assassin, Sherlock Holmes, Surrogates andâŠTwilight New Moon.
For reference, the Xbox 360âs comparable service launched in Australia a few months back. Iâd be keen to see how itâs been performing, and how Sonyâs performs, given Australian internet service providersâ stingy monthly download limits.
