Updated ‘Head’s Up’: Expected PlayStation Store Update For 30th July 2009

306 0

So the experiment begins. This content list is what we expect to be releasing tomorrow onto the store, and the below content should be all present and correct when we publish the update.
However – and here is my disclaimer – if for whatever reason some of the content is pulled at the last minute, I will update this blog posting, and will also post in the comments section to let you know what’s happened and why.
This is as much ‘early warning’ as I can currently give for what content we’ll be bringing to the store, I know it’s only one day, but I believe that this extra day will not only show you what’s coming, but will help to manage expectations. I’ve read some sceptics on the forums saying that I’ll only do this when there is good content coming, so let me clarify for you and say ‘not true’. I will post every week on a Wednesday regardless of what content is releasing.

Okay, now I’ve got that all out the way – I’m sure you all know by now that we have Fat Princess out this week! After having a play in the beta myself, I can’t wait to play the full version, and I’m sure I’ll bump into some of you on the cake strewn battlefield!

We also have the second episode of Watchmen: The End Is Nigh available, as well as a demo for Numblast (both PS3 and PSP versions), and additional content for Fight Night Round 4, Rag Doll Kung Fu: Fists of Plastic, Buzz! and Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10. There’s also some full game love for you PSP users, with Samurai Warriors: State of War and Unbound Saga available too.
Enjoy, and as usual I’ll see you in the comments section.
