It's the standard stock response from me again - I have no information to share."We contacted Sony about the matter today but received the same response. We've also left a message with Valve in the hope of getting an update.
Counter-Strike: Global Offensive launched three weeks ago on PC and Xbox 360 globally, and on PS3 in the US, where it went on to top PSN sales in August (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/367960/counter-strike-go-tops-us-psn-sales-in-august/).
Sony's European arm said on August 22 (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/364362/sony-apologises-as-counter-strike-global-offensive-misses-eu-ps-store-update/): "We hope to resolve this issue as quickly as possible, and will let you know if the situation changes."
We said in our 8/10 Counter-Strike: Global Offensive review (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/364335/reviews/counter-strike-global-offensive-review-review/), which went live last month: "Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is a great introduction to the renowned shooter series, but veterans may feel there simply isn't enough new material here to justify the encore."
