Today is PlayStation Store Update day. Again.
PlayStation 3 owners can dive right in and grab the new Ratchet and Clank – there’s a demo available and we’ve written about how it’s vastly different from other Ratchet games here, if you’re curious.
It’s at a reasonably bargain price of £12, and that includes the Vita version next year.
There’s also a demo for the new LEGO Lord of the Rings. We thought that the game was great for fans of the films (and, in some respects, the books) but it’s still got the same niggles that past LEGO games had. Regardless, now you can try it for yourself.
Also out today is Travel Bug, a cute little Vita app that falls into SCE’s ‘Discovery’ range – it’s free and looks quite kooky, so try it out and let us know what you think.
Other stuff released today include Ace Combat Assault Horizon on the PS3 (£15.99), Dead Or Alive 5 for £48, and FIFA 13 for £50. The Aftermath update for Battlefield 3 is also out – but that’s apparently huge (2GB or so) and also needs a 1.5GB patch, and the Omega DLC for Mass Effect 3 – that’s £11.99.
Oh, and Counter Strike is out. Just kidding.

Just Travel Bug for me this week. I suspect it’ll be short-lived like the other Vita ‘freebies’.

When did they put in the “New This Week” and “New This Month” sections!? Now I don’t have to look at those disgusting backgrounds and adverts, making my eyes flit in different directions.
Seriously, whoever was chief lead on the UI needs to re-evalute. I bet I’m not the only one who clicks, past all the adverts etc just to get to “Latest PS3 Games” “Latest PS3 Demos” on the final window.

Also – anyone having trouble finding Ratchet Q-Force?
