With FirstPlay, Europe Gets Paid PSN Programming

In North America, PS3 owners have Qore, a paid PSN program. In Europe, there's now FirstPlay.

Available through the PlayStation Network, FirstPlay features HD reviews and previews as well as exclusive downloadable content. The program is from Sony Computer Europe and publishing group Future, the folks behind the Official PlayStation Magazine.

"As PlayStation 3 moves the gaming experience to a more social and competitive online environment through the PlayStation Network, so it becomes critical that we're offering gamers the very best content and services through this channel," said Ray Maguire, Senior Vice President of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe and Managing Director of Sony Computer Entertainment UK. "FirstPlay is a great example of this."

Each episode is 99p, while a three-month subscription costs £8.99.
