Sony European PSN Game Store Updates for August 24, 2011

91w ago - SCEE's Ross McGrath of the PlayStation Store Team is here with this weeks European PSN Game Store updates today.

To quote: PlayStation Store (via PS3, PSP and Media Go)

Yes, the first of the PlayStation Network PLAY titles launches this week in the form of Street Fighter III: Third Strike Online Edition. If you haven't already pre-ordered the title you can grab it from today and get the GILL character unlock as part of the package.

Street Fighter III: Third Strike Online Edition, one of the most revered, deep, and sophisticated fighting games of all time, now takes the battle online. Fighting game fans new and old owe it to themselves to experience this mastery of 2D fighting.

Throw down with enhanced HD-filtered graphics, arcade-perfect gameplay, GGPO seamless multiplayer, YouTube replay sharing, new art, and I am assured there is no Capcom Online DRM (for those of you who were worried).

If you have pre-ordered, after the publish today you can visit the PLAY section and download a bundle of the Trial/Unlock/DLC at no cost. You should also be receiving an email in the next day or two as a reminder.

And for those of you in Italy, Capcom (after discussion with us) has taken the decision to hold back the publish of SF III for you guys, which should only be for short time - this is because we are currently planning to involve Italy in the PLAY program, but without the pre-order element.

I will keep you Italian consumers updated on this as much as possible but the plan is to provide you with the titles, free gifts and the chance to get a free copy of PAYDAY: The Heist too. I will update you with the status on this as soon as I can, but we are working on it.

So what else is publishing today? We've got lots. Plenty of trial and unlocks, we've got demos for PES 2012, NHL 12 and Space Marine (and we've made it available in Germany for Plus subscribers), there's also a truck load of DLC (including some for White Knight Chronicle II) and loads of Street Fighter III avatars.

And don't forget the PSP sale starting today - check out Andy's post for the full listing, there should be something for everyone in either this bunch of offers or the next.
