PlayStation Store PS3 and PSN Updates for December 27, 2011

73w ago - Sony PlayStation Store Director Grace Chen is here with the last US PSN update for 2011, as follows below:

We say goodbye to 2011 with one last PlayStation Store update; just in time for those looking to warm the winter nights with some great content from PlayStation Network.

New PSN Games this week include All Zombies Must Die. This twin-stick shooter is taken to lofty new heights with a bevy of RPG features, four player co-op and optional PlayStation Move support.

You'll also want to check out Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath HD. This remake of the influential original puts you in the shoes of the High Plains Drifter with an all new coat of paint that you won't want to miss.

The Splinter Cell HD Collection released earlier this year, but it's now broken up into individual games. Want to pick up only one title in the trilogy? Now you can. The original Trilogy bundle is of course, still available, and may stand as the better deal should you wish to purchase all three.

Two great new additions in the PS3 Full Game category are also arriving this week. For an amazing gaming experience for all ages, you can now download Carnival Island, playable with PlayStation Move. Packed with a ton of great games and activities, you'll be amazed how it uses the Move controller to create an entirely new sense of immersion.

Motorstorm Apocalypse arrives as well, where you'll race in an almost completely abandoned city that offers the perfect playground for MotorStorm's electric brand of brutal street racing.

That's it for the year! From everyone at PlayStation, thank you for a wonderful 2011, and we look forward to sharing more amazing experiences only available on PlayStation Network in 2012!
