This week’s PlayStation Store update offers gamers something a little different than usual: a sale on select downloadable games lasting until next week’s update on July 23. The sale includes seven PlayStation Store titles spanning a variety of genres, such as WipEout HD, Brain Challenge, and PixelJunk Eden. The included titles are as follows:
WipEout HD – $14.99 (originally $19.99)
Flock! – $7.49 (originally $14.99)
Savage Moon – $4.99 (originally $9.99)
Crash Commando – $4.99 (originally $9.99)
PixelJunk Eden – $4.99 (originally $9.99)
Brain Challenge – $4.99 (originally $9.99)
3 on 3 NHL Arcade – $4.99 (originally $9.99)
Once again, the sale will only last until next week’s update, so if you’ve had your eye on one of these titles and have been waiting for the price to drop, be sure to grab it before it’s too late. I think I’m finally going to grab a copy of WipEout HD, but I wish its sale price was just a little more generous.
Also arriving on the PlayStation Store this week is Namco Museum Essentials, bringing five classic Namco arcade titles – Pac-Man, Galaga, Dig Dug, Dragon Spirit, and a visually enhanced version of Xevious – straight into your living room. Complete with PlayStation Home rewards and trophies, Namco Museum Essentials is a great way to play the 80’s.
Additional downloads include:
