This week’s US PS Store update contains a few gems for both PS3 and PSP owners, particularly if you’re a PlayStation Plus subscriber.
2011 is the fifteenth anniversary for the Resident Evil series, which first appeared on PS1 back in 1996. Capcom is showing its love for the PlayStation platform by offering PS Plus members a veritable treasure trove of content. They’re giving away the first three Resident Evil games for free (playable on PSP or PS3) and making the HD remastered version of RE4 available for just $10 (normal price is $19.99). There’re also five free snazzy RE4 avatars to associate with your PSN account.
Personally, I can’t wait to return to the excellent adventure that is Resident Evil 4. I’m a little disappointed that Capcom didn’t implement Move controls or base the game on the graphically superior GameCube build, but the low price of $10 for Plus members more than makes up for these shortcomings.
Another noteworthy blast from the past on this week’s list is Persona 2: Innocent Sin for PSP ($39.99). It appeared on PS1 in 1999 and was never released outside of Japan, so it’s terrific that this unique RPG has finally received an official English translation.
Other highlights this week include demos for NBA 2K12 and Burnout Crash!, as well as the full, downloadable version of the latter. I got a chance to try out the demo for NBA 2K12 this morning and couldn’t help feeling letdown as it only allows you to play for one quarter. The new control mechanics which utilise the right analog stick work well enough, but the overall impression I took away is that the game looks dated and the presentation is nowhere near as good as what I’ve seen in this year’s crop of EA Sports titles.
Here’s the full list for the current PlayStation Store update:
