'Heads-Up' Game Store Update (6th October 2010)

Good afternoon, let’s get cracking shall we.
We have one full game for you this week in the form of Ferrari: The Race Challenge. Fully featured with (up to) 16 player multiplayer, and a single player tiered career mode, you can show off your prowess with a range of some of the best vehicles ever manufactured (no Ferrari didn’t pay me to say that).
For your PSP needs we have Phantasy Star Portable 2 available, and the Essentials range keeps growing with nine additions this week (this necessitates an exclamation mark)! I also feel the need this week to highlight one of the latest minis added to the roster; Ace Armstrong Vs. The Alien Scumbags. Not only is the name fantastic, but it looks like a pretty nifty old-school shooter (like Mum used to make).
Modern Warfare 2 saw a week’s price promotion on the Stimulus and Resurgence Packs start yesterday, and we have another week of the recent Special Offers to go. I’ve also listed this month’s PlayStation Plus content for you all too, because I’m such a nice chap.
I gather some of you will have two week’s worth of abuse to hurl my way, in light of my absence last week, so I’d better get straight to the comments section hadn’t I? :-)
Laters.
