Hard to believe nobody here managed to snag it before it was removed.. Most only got under 100% download of it sadly.

Looks like it is not coming out today. Hopefully it will be out tomorrow!

I can't help but remain skeptical of the rumors for "in-game web browser".

I having functionality for having two players signed in at the same time is going to be very nice to have . If I remember right in an interview with some developers from Sony a while back, they had expressed interest in having two players signed in at once, but said it would be challenging to do. Glad they could sort out the issues . Hopefully this new functionality will make it into every game that has online play in the future.

Still holding out hope for universal in-game XMB soundtracks though
