Latest
PSN Tuesday: Hohokum, Surgeon Simulator: AE, Disgaea 4
This week's PlayStation Store update brings with it something new for every Sony system, from the PlayStation 4 to the oft-neglected PS Vita. As of today, PlayStation 4 owners can purchase the adorably stylish (and cross-buy compatible) Hohokum for $15, or the gory, far less adorable Surgeon Simulator: Anniversary Edition for $13. Further, those who have yet to pick up bizarro survival sim Don't Starve can now purchase the game and the Reign of Giants expansion for $19. Risen 3 is the highlight of the PlayStation 3's new offerings and is available at a relatively bargain price of $50. Hohokum has likewise arrived on the PlayStation 3 at $15 alongside Akiba's Trip: Undead and Undressed, a $40 action-RPG that involves exploring Japan and stripping vampires down to their undead underoos, though not necessarily in that order. Though largely neglected during Sony's Gamescom press conference earlier today, the Vita handheld sees the most numerous new releases with this latest update. The $40 Disgaea 4: A Promise Revisited is the handheld's highlight, though it too sees Hohokum and Akiba's Trip: Undead and Undressed, alongside Gravity Crash Ultra, My Singing Monsters and Phantom Breaker: Battle Grounds.

West welcomes Disgaea 4 Vita in August, dood
Disgaea 4: A Promise Revisited is coming to North American Vitas on August 12, before waddling its way to Europe two weeks later on August 29. The news comes via NIS America, who've just opened up pre-orders on the goodies-stuffed limited edition box set. As per tradition, the Vita conversion of the 2011 tactics-RPG features a number of extras, including a brand new "scenario" adventure and more than 50 of the DLC add-ons for the original game. No matter the extras, our review of the original PS3 incarnation suggests fans of the series who've not yet played Disgaea 4 are in for a treat: "As another worthwhile and entertaining entry in the franchise, Disgaea 4 is still just another Disgaea game. Fans will love it for everything it is, while detractors will ignore it for all that it isn't. This is a game, and series, that isn't out to win over gamers by changing its stripes -- though its fans probably wouldn't have it any other way." [Image: NIS America]
