This Week on the PSN [The NTSC Edition]

8
Richard Walker

It's a relatively healthy looking week on the PlayStation Store, with a nice selection of downloadable content to dip into, and a couple of games available for download. PlayStation Plus members can get their hands on Tomb Raider: Underworld and PSone classic Spyro for starters, while everyone else can check out Wanted Corp and download Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit and Dragon Age II.

Then there's demos of Rage, GoldenEye 007: Reloaded and BurgerTime World Tour to check out if you're still undecided about buying them, and there's a nice hefty dose of DLC to leaf through, from the Battlefield 3 Back to Karkand multiplayer expansion to the Resistance 3 Brutality Pack, Muppet costumes for LittleBigPlanet 2, the Batman: Arkham City Skins Pack and the Saints Row: The Third add-ons. There's possibly something for everyone this week.

And naturally, there's a load more where that lot came from too, including PSone classic Final Fantasy VI, more DLC and a ton of price updates. Take a look.
