Hello everyone.

I would like to announce that the PSPgo Promotion which allows you to download a free game when you buy a PSPgo has been extended until 31st January. So there is still time to take advantage of this offer. Details on the promotion and how to redeem are below.

Thanks!
Adam

I am very happy to announce a new promotion for PSPgo! If you buy a PSPgo you can get either the ultra-realistic driving simulator Gran Turismo, brutal off-road racer MotorStorm Arctic Edge or awesome action-adventure Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines to download completely free! In Germany the 3 games that are on offer are Gran Turismo, MotorStorm Arctic Edge and LittleBigPlanet.

All you have to do is set up or sign into your PlayStationNetwork account, then visit PlayStationStore to download a special PSPgo Promotion Theme.

This will trigger an email from PlayStationStore containing an e-voucher. Enter the code onto the PlayStationStore via your PSPgo and select which game you would like to download. The voucher will be with you within a week, but you should get it much quicker than that.

In addition to those of you looking to pick up a PSPgo, this offer is also available to all existing PSPgo owners. So if you have bought your PSPgo before today you will be able to go onto the store right now, download the PSPgo Promotion Theme and we will send you a voucher to download one of the great games on offer!

For the full details and a step by step guide please click here or visit eu.playstation.com/pspgopromotion.

Happy Holidays!
Adam

Greetings PlayStation fans and pinball lovers of all ages!

My name is Josh Hart and I am an Assistant Producer and Designer for the soon-to-be-released game Pinball Heroes. Our game will be available in Europe from the end of February exclusively from PlayStation Store for your PSP.

Pinball Heroes is a total of 4 pinball tables based on some great Sony Computer Entertainment games. We’ve got tables featuring Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, Everybody’s Golf, High Velocity Bowling and Pain!

The tables will be available both separately (at the price of €2.99 each) and as a bundle: the Pinball Heroes collection pack featuring all 4 tables together for €9.99.

Each table is unique and fun in its own way. Be sure to check out our trailer along with some individual table descriptions below…

Thanks to all for your feedback last week, there was some great work there indeed.  Lots of you echoed sentiments that I personally share and it’ll be interesting to see where this year takes us.

Last week’s special offers continue for one more week (with a new batch coming on the 21st) so don’t forget to check those out if you haven’t already.  We’ve gone a bit demo friendly this week with Vancouver 2010 and Inferno Pool for PS3, and Football Manager Handheld 2010 and Army of Two: The 40th Day for PSP available.  This leads me nicely onto the fact that we’ll also have the full game of 40th Day available this Friday too.

Throw into the mix one full game, another PSP game, one mini, one PSone game and a bunch of downloadable content, and that makes this week’s publish. Oh, and a personal highlight, a trailer for Yakuza 3, it’s coming!!

That’s your lot this week; I’ll catch you in the comments section.  Cheers.
