Playstation Store Update

Top Spin

Another week, another PS Store update. Not a very good one either. This week you can pick up the entire debut album from the Cars on Rock Band for $14.99 or each song individually if you like too. There are also discounts on a song from Lynyrd Skynyrd and All-American Rejects.

For game videos, you can watch stuff from Top Spin, Battlefield Bad Company, Dead Space, Project Origin, and Quake Wars. There are a couple of blu-ray trailers and PS3 wallpapers as well.

Playstation Store Update

Pixeljunk Monsters

Not a lot on the Playstation Store this week. There isn’t even anything to play. All of those European tracks for Rock Band is available now though. You can also download the PixelJunk Monsters album for $2.99, if you’re one of those hardcore videogame music junkies. On top of that though, there are some game videos, movie trailers and a couple of PS3 themes. Very dull indeed.

There are a few goodies for the PSP though. You can download the full game of The Con, and there are two demos for Hot Shots Golf with varying difficulties. The other stuff consists of a few game videos, game music, and a PSP wallpaper. Yay!

Playstation Store Update

Haze Artwork

Not a whole lot up there this week, but there are some good demos. You’ll most definitely want to try the Haze demo and The Bourne Conspiracy demo. Maybe you’ll even give the GRID demo a chance.

You can also pick up Rocketman: Axis of Evil for $9.99. For add-on content, you’ve got an expansion pack for PixelJunk Monsters and new tracks for Rock Band and Guitar Hero III. There’s a buttload of game videos too as well as some movie trailers, PS3 themes and wallpapers. For all the details, visit the Playstation Blog.

Playstation Store Update

echochrome

Another fun-filled Playstation Store update. The big download this week is echochrome. Have you tried the demo yet? It was a bit hard for me, but I’m a dummy. Anyway, there’s also some add-ons for Rock Band and Karaoke Revolution Presents: American Idol Encore, a demo for Dark Sector, a whole bunch of game videos and some new wallpapers. If you want the full details, hit up the “Featured Section” of the Playstation Store or visit the Playstation Blog.

Hot Shots Golf PS3 Update

Hot Shots Golf 5

A new patch was just released on Friday for Hot Shots Golf: Out of Bounds for the Playstation 3, in case you haven’t noticed yet. The patch contained a pair of new online play modes; Stroke and Match Play. There’s also a new exploration feature which will let you travel around the courses during online play and taunt competitors between turns. Great update!

Playstation Store Update

echochrome

The Playstation Store has lots more stuff for you again this week. Some real good stuff actually. You can get R-TYPE 1 and 2 bundled for only $5.99, and there’s a whole lot of add-ons, including the Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare map pack and the full Judas Priest “Screaming for Vengeance” album for Rock Band.

On top of all this is the echochrome demo and Iron Man demo. All of this stuff should keep you fairly busy until next week when the big releases come out. Oh, and there are a bunch of game videos too, such as for PROTOTYPE, GT5 Prologue, and Resistance 2. If you want all the details, check out the listing on the Playstation Blog.

The Playstation Store is Back!

Gran Turismo 5 Prologue

The Playstation Store has been redesigned and will start to receive weekly updates once again. Starting today. There’s a crap load of stuff this week, since the store has to catch up with everything from the weeks of past.

The main attraction is Gran Turismo 5 Prologue for $39.99, but there’s also some downloadable content for Warhawk, Rock Band, Super Stardust HD, and Lair as well as some new Themes. Only one demo this week though; UEFA EURO 2008 Demo. There are also a bunch of game videos and blu-ray trailers. Check out the Playstation Blog for complete details.

New Playstation Store is Live

The old crappy, barely usable Playstation Store is gone, and in it’s place is shiny, new one. The v2.30 firmware update is now available and the update Playstation Store comes with it. I’m on the bus right now, so I haven’t seen it yet, but you can bet your ass I’m heading straight to the PS3 when I get home.

Lair Gets Analog Control Support

Lair

This is an update that should have happened a very long time ago. An update is coming soon for Factor 5’s Lair on the Playstation 3 which will now give the game analog control support. Right now, the game only supports Sixaxis controls. Controls that everyone who has played the game feels are broken. This is actually the biggest reason I haven’t purchased it. The update will be hitting Japan on April 17, so we’ll probably get them shortly after.

PSN Store Update Next Week

So, it seems we all get the new PSN Store next week. In a press release, Sony made official that the update will be made available on the evening of April 15th in Japan, which will come with the v2.30 firmware update.

According to the Playstation Blog, the US will be getting it in mid April, but Grace Chen, in a video about the update, mentioned that GT5 Prologue would be available on April 17th on the PSN Store. Since Sony said no new downloads would be available until the Store was re-launched, I believe this means we get the update next week too. Here’s a video of the features and the slipped relaunch date.
