European PSN Game Store Updates for February 15, 2012

[PS3 News]

Today Jawad Ashraf of the PlayStation Store Team has posted up the European PSN Game Store Updates below, as follows:

Greetings humble gamers. I come forth with a new update of the PlayStation Store.

After a bit of a wait we now have Worms Ultimate Mayhem ready and waiting to claim your precious hard drive space. Grand Theft Auto IV arrives to the PS Store as a vanilla flavour or as a bundle option complete with DLC, and House of the Dead III also shows its beautifully scary side for you to unload your rounds on.

The big demo this week is Mass Effect 3. Fire the first shots in the war to take Earth back! Voted Most Anticipated Game of 2012 at the SpikeTV VGAs, Mass Effect 3 puts you at the centre of an all-out galactic war - and how to wage that war is up to you. Try the demo today.

Binary Domain also pops in for a visit, also having a demo on the store today. From the team that brought you Yakuza comes Binary Domain, a game set in a futuristic Tokyo where man and machine are waging war. A bit like Terminator only in Tokyo, then. But nay! It's the gameplay system that should be of interest. Direct your team with instructions either by button commands or your very own voice - do they trust you or are you just a reckless muppet in the middle of a warzone?

Also, Far Cry 2 has its price slashed to £7.99/€9.99! Even better, if you're a PS Plus subscriber then it is offered to you at a 100% cut. Imagine that. Oh wait, you won't have to!

Today we also enter a new phase of select PlayStation 2 titles appearing on the store. We're taking things slow with a selection of titles (full list below), but a couple of gems to definitely check out are God Hand and Maximo.

"God or demon, what am I? It's time for me to choose my path!" (I love the song!) Receiving a controversial review, God Hand is a sorely underexposed PS2 game that was, for many players, a truly wild ride. With crazy moves such as the "Ball Buster" and a truly colourful set of characters, God Hand was not only fun, frantic and hilarious but also pretty gosh darned hard!

Now, if that doesn't take your fancy (why?!) then give Maximo a shot. Using the classic Ghosts 'n Goblins as a sort of base design, the game has you take up arms as Maximo, who needs to save his lady friend and other loved ones from an evil chap called Achilles.

With classic style gameplay reimagined, Maximo is sure to provide you with some great fun and amusing moments when you're stripped to your hearty underwear whilst fighting off the undead. No man is more brave and determined than this, surely?

I hope you enjoy some of what's on today. Stay safe, readers. Bye!

More PlayStation 3 News...

[HeyManHRU]

I remember playing Chicken Little on the PS2, the game isn't worth the trouble of even downloading it imo. Maybe some children will like it though.

[Nabnab]

I really recommend to take Malicious, it's a Gravity Rush Like and also cheap price for a game like that.

[elser1]

i really hope they release a ps2 game capcom classics that had ghosts 'n goblins on it.i own it on ps2 but am not using my bc console anymore.i love that game. i bought house of the dead 3 today also and its probably the worst ps3 game ever that i've played so be warned.. LOL

i wish that move street cricket was available in australia.. that's stupid not having it here..

[SanctumSlayer]

Wow that a lot of ps2 titles. And priced nicely.

[Osirisx]

when are they going to put up burnout 3 takedown from the ps2.. so we can play it on non bc consoles?

it might be an old game but imo it was the best of the Burnout series.

[GrandpaHomer]

I hope you're being ironic there - 8 quid for ages old PS2 games is pure rip-off - you can pick majority of those for 99p in the bargain bin (or simply download for free). I hate when companies try to resell you several time the same product you've already purchased in the past.

[SanctumSlayer]

I've got a bc ps3 so I'd definately get the physical ps2 copy over these digital ones. But if I didn't, I'd be left with no choice other than buying a ps2. 9.99 and 4.99 is not bad imo compared to ps1 titles being priced roughly the same. But yea, bc ps3 ftw

Btw none of these ps2 titles interest me, I just like the price scheme. Compared to ps1 prices

[10fwd]

didn't they promise us choplifter hd in this store update???

[atko]

Tintin sounds quite interesting, hoping we can get our greasy mitts on these lol. Would like some of these ps2 games also. Wish i knew how to patch these things
