PSN Store Update: 28/7/10

It’s another brisk week for the PlayStation Store with Earthworm Jim HD arriving. If you’re too young to remember the game first time around, it was a kooky kind of platformer which was packed with humour and, if my memory serves me correctly, flying cows.

Also this week, Episode 17 of FirstPlay seems to have a fairly strong lineup with a bit of personality being injected via their new feature in which members of the team recount personal gaming highs. The rest of the episode looks fairly strong too with a feature on 3D with Ray Maguire and a preview of Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood.

Bear in mind that the special offers are still on a number of products (I bought Mortal Kombat II and Street Fighter II Turbo last week and I’ve completely lost my skills on both) so if there’s nothing new this week for you then why not pick up some classics at a great price?

So, anything there tickle your fancy this week?

  1. Earthworm Jim is just as awesome as I remember from the Mega Drive days. Grabbing that this week me thinks.

    Got Street Fighter Turbo HD last week and couldn’t help feeling more than slightly peeved this game doesn’t have trophy support. What’s that about?

    Also, regarding PS+ – could somebody please explain how the push demo’s work, they don’t seem to have been sent out to me. (I don’t actually want the Heavy Rain or Modnation Demo, but, since I paid for them, where the fudge are they?!)
