It’s November, new Plus content for all and of course this month as you probably are all already aware, Hydrophobia: Prophecy hits the Store and comes at no cost to Plus subscribers.

This Move-enabled action-adventure features Kate Wilson facing off against a fanatical terrorist group aboard a city-sized luxury ocean liner. But the real star of Hydrophobia: Prophecy is without doubt the amazing water effects which put even Bioshock to shame and have to be seen to be believed. This new PSN incarnation has new gameplay sections and has been tweaked and improved from the original XBLA and PC releases – Dark Energy have described this as the most complete version of the game yet. So enjoy!

What else do we have for you at the start of November? Well, there are your usual minis, including the incredibly endearing ‘Where is my Heart?’ and to celebrate the launch of Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception, we bring you Naughty Dog‘s first PlayStation outings – not one but FOUR (count ’em!) PSone Classics from the Crash Bandicoot series.

We have some very fine discounts for Tales from Space: About a Blob and Hard Corps: Uprising should you feel the need to grab a couple of bargains; dynamic themes for Ubisoft’s upcoming ‘I Am Alive!‘ and our PlayStation’s own social favourite ‘Start the Party! Save the World‘ plus a set of non-game related PSN avatars for you to jazz up your PSN profile.

There’s more this month of course, with launch discounts and deals for a few different titles still to come, including some of the items the US enjoyed late last month.

Speaking of the US Store, I’m sure by now you will have seen the 12 month subscription offer that is currently available to SCEA Plus consumers – Buy a 12-month subscription and get a copy of ‘Jurassic Park: The Game’ at no cost. I stress that this offer will be available to SCEE in the near future, the release date for Jurassic Park: The Game is not currently confirmed for SCEE (we’ll keep you updated) so if you’re planning to buy or renew your 12-month Plus subscription, hold out a little longer and you too can frolic with the dinosaurs in Telltale’s latest adventure outing.

That’s all for now folks, enjoy your content.
