SCEE: No PSN Ticket for Europe yet

Sony should start re-thinking its PlayStation Network (PSN) policies for Europe lest it wants the PlayStation 3 (PS3) to lose its steam there.

A couple of days ago, we mentioned that Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) planned a downtime on the network to facilitate “new exciting things” but as it turned out, it was nothing more than a maintenance schedule.

Aside from that, online gaming site Computer and Video Games (CVG) talked to SCEE earlier today to know if they’ll be implementing pre-paid PSN cards in the region. In case you missed it, it’s actually a new form of virtual currency consumers can use on the Network to purchase video game titles and other content.

Unfortunately, SCEE is not so keen on having the service available yet. “We have no plans to release the PSN cards in Europe at this time,” one representative told the above mentioned site. On the brighter side of things, the spokesperson did say “yet” so there’s still hope for European consumer.

After all, the service won’t be available in Japan until next month. There’s still no word on Sony Computer Entertainment America’s (SCEA) take on the matter.
