Sounds like it could be either the focuser sagging, or the camera being slightly tilted, so that the sensor is not orthogonal with the image plane..
Here is an idea of what focuser sag looks like taken with a GSO 8" RC with the standard focuser. See the stars in the bottom left hand corner are really bad, whilst the stars at the top right, through to about the center of the field are fine... That was caused by the focuser tilting a small way..
The results would look much the same with a tilted camera, although probably less severe..
