Alright. I think I got it all. As always, we’ll be scanning the forums, Twitter, Facebook and more to read your feedback on the changes and adjustments introduced with this Title Update. UPDATE February 17, 2010 I noticed that with the heavy volume of comments on this post (500+ and counting), some visitors may be having issues leaving a comment or seeing some of our responses. In the event you're experiencing any issue -- you can also leave us your thoughts on the PlayStation.com forums in the meantime. We hope to have our own forums up and running sometime relatively soon as well. Just one quick comment -- we have and are reading all of your feedback, positive and negative, about some of the changes we made with Title Update 1.05. We feel we need to give everything some time for the dust to settle -- it's only been a few days.
