And speaking of the PSP, Sony has made three more PSP games available for download: Holy Invasion of Privacy Badman! What Did I Do to Deserve This?, Myst and Unbound Saga.
Finally, another costume pack for LittleBigPlanet has been made available to download, this one inspired by the recently released Ghostbusters.
