PAL PlayStation Store Update: *Crickets* [Europe]

http://cache.gawker.com/assets/image...torenew_01.jpgNormally, despite the fact it's often not as timely or as generous with content as its US counterpart, there's always something to recommend on the PAL PlayStation Store. Not this week.
No, a scan down the list of stuff available reveals that not only is this week's update lacking in quantity, but also quality, with poor demos, poor games and a scarcity of DLC for anything but the mainstay music games of Rock Band and Guitar Hero.
If you're in the UK, might want to spend the weekend building snowmen. In Australia? The last Pakistan test should still be on TV, kick back and watch that instead.
