Joe Danger, Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker added to PSN this week @ Gaming Target

Written by Nicole Kline on June 09, 2010

News: This week's PSN Update is more like Hideo Kojima day.

Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker has been unleashed upon the world, but it's not the only release on the PlayStation Network this week.

First, the updates, starting with the permanent price drops. Stand O' Food is down to $2.99, Manhunt 2 and The Warriors are down to $14.99, and <>Dissidia Final Fantasy is down to $19.99. Greed Corp. is on sale for $5.99, and the full season service entitlement for Sam and Max Ц The Devil's Playhouse is on sale for $24.99.

This month's Qore: Presented by the PlayStation Network is also on the menu, serving up Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light and Green Day Rock Band, has a special discussion with Q Games (and Dylan Cuthbert!), and takes a look at Clash of the Titans. And, of course, Qore releases usually mean free stuff for subscribers, as well as a chance to watch Veronica Belmont Ц I never pass up either.

For downloadable games, there's Death Track: Resurrection, the much-publicized Joe Danger, Sam & Max Episode 1: The Penal Zone, and Voodoo Dice. That last one also has a free game demo available as well. There's just one new PSone classic for the list, and that's Bloody Roar 2.

There's a lot of add-on game content available this week, including Burn Zombie Burn In Space DLC, Super Street Fighter IV: Super Challengers Pack, Skate 3 Ц Maloof Money Cup 2010 NYC Pack, a Vamp Mod and Kart for ModNation Racers, and, of course, the Heavy Rain costumes for LittleBigPlanet. There's also plenty of new items for Record of Agarest War, and some music downloads as well - DJ Hero: 2 Mix!, the National Anthem Pack for Guitar Hero (including УGod Save the QueenФ and УThe Star-Spangled BannerФ by Steve Ouimette), and some Rock Band songs, including the Deftones Pack 01.

In music, there's the Official ModNation Racers Soundtrack. The free game videos are all trailers - Dante's Inferno Ц Trails of St. Lucia Walkthrough, Joe Danger, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II (announce trailer), and the official launch trailer for Red Dead Redemption. There are also two new themes Ц Wakeboarding HD Dynamic and ACR Premium.

Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker is the big headliner for the PlayStation Store for PSP. Touted as being Уhand-crafted by Hideo Kojima himselfФ and even referred to in some circles as УMetal Gear Solid 5,Ф this highly anticipated game is finally here. Also out are Metal Slug XX and Disgaea Infinite.

Three new PSP Minis are out - Lock СN Chase, Cubixx, and Vibes. There are also a few new SOCOM Fire Team Bravo 3 items available in the add-on game content section. Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 Portable's opening movie trailer is available in the free game videos, and four new themes Ц two for Pinball Heroes and two for ACR. And finally, for those fans of the Armored Core series, there are three new wallpapers available from Armored Core Last Raven.

See below for the full details on all the new releases.
