The PlayStation Store's "Just For You" Recommendations Need Work

How thoughtful~

I'm sure I'm the last person alive to notice given the scarcity of my sign-ins, but PlayStation Network's store has a "Just For You" category now. It looks to be inspired by the practices of online retailers like Amazon that suggest products based on recent orders. Whereas the big A-Z is usually spot on, the PlayStation Store recommendations need a bit of work.

When parrying Hadokens in Street Fighter III, I've often wondered what it'd be like if snails were fast.

But wait, there's more!

If 2D action platforming is your jam, you're gonna love the Madden series!

They did try to sell me some USF4 costumes, but scrolling over landed me on Rock Band 3 DLC. What?

To be fair, there are some games in those suggestions that are actually up my alley, but that appears to be more coincidence than anything. There are a myriad of fighting games sold over PSN — many of them from the Street Fighter series — and not one of them came up in relation to SF3 Online Edition. I'm pretty sure the PlayStation Store's "Just For You" recommendations are a bit on the random side for the time being. Hopefully they'll work on that, because I'd love a quicker way to find a new title that catches my eye.
