High Velocity Bowling Patch PSN+ Exclusive for One Month

Details are finally starting to emerge on just how people with the PSN version of High Velocity Bowling are going to upgrade to Move support. The European patch is already out and completely free, but in the good old United States, you're going to have to pony up for PSN+ (that's $17.99 for three months or $49.99 for a full year).

It's a bit of a slap in the face to those of us who purchased the game when it was originally released a couple of years ago, but those who shell out for the new retail version of HVB (which includes all the DLC), should be able to use the Move with it right away.

Now, I know Sony's just trying to promote their Plus service, but I'm not sure if I'm too fond of this "premium" exclusivity. Timed (or full) exclusives are already a pain enough to deal with between different consoles, let alone segmenting the user base of one.

Looks like I'll be waiting the month with the rest of the pleebs out there. For everyone else, the patch and retail version should be out tomorrow.
