    Sony has announced that tonight they are releasing the SOE remake of the arcade classic, Rampage World Tour, through the North American PLAYSTATION Store. Priced at the standard rate of a mere $4.99, the downloadable title allows you to play as any of the three classic Rampage characters as you tear down skyscapers and generally terrorize the city. The game also offers multiplayer action for up to three people, online or local - no word on if it supports voice chat though.I'm pretty stoked about this title myself. I liked Mortal Kombat II a lot, but Gauntlet II was kind of lacking in the fun department. Rampage looks solid though, graphics held up surprisingly well and something about the simple, destructive nature of the gameplay of the original always entertained me.[Via Press Release]

    Looks like this Thursday is gonna be a big one at the PLAYSTATION Store! SOE just sent out a press release stating that the updated version of the Midway classic, Gauntlet II, will be available May 3rd from the PlayStation Store for the low-low price of $4.99. For those of you too young to remember (or so old your memory has started to get hazy like mine), Sony included a nice little synopsis of the game:"Play as the Warrior, Valkyrie, Elf, or the Wizard in Gauntlet II™! Enter a dungeon with several hundred levels as players defeat monster generators that churn out wave after wave of enemies. Players can destroy them to clear the level and find their way to the exit! Collect food for health and magic items for power-ups while plowing through the dungeon. Brought back and available for download exclusively on the PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system, it's time to re-experience this classic Midway arcade title."Highlights of the game include: Full online play Online leaderboards Over 100 unique levels! Looks like Calling All Cars! will have a bit of company this week when it finally hits the PLAYSTATION Store. I plan on picking up both, anybody else?
