PSN Tuesday: Warhammer 40K: Kill Team, Galaga Legions DX

PSN Tuesday: Castlevania: LoS 'Resurrection' DLC, Bionic Commando: Rearmed sale
Okay, now it's just too quiet. The PSN update is lean this week. There's the Castlevania: Lords of Shadow "Resurrection" DLC, a nice discount on Bionic Commando: Rearmed 1 & 2, a Virtua Tennis 4 Move demo and some other random goodies. Overall, though, not a major update. However, despite the lack of content in this week's update, we definitely hope you've picked up your free games and free PlayStation Plus membership from the "Welcome Back" program by now. July 3 is the deadline, so don't dilly-dally if you haven't grabbed them. Find all of this week's DLC past the break.

PSN Tuesday: Normalcy (don't forget about the free stuff)
You hear that? Listen ... it's almost calm. Almost normal. The regularly scheduled PSN update returns this week, following an extended hiatus that manifested itself in a content deluge slightly before E3 and throughout the week of gaming madness. There are plenty of things to check out in this update, but it's probably worth repeating that you should grab those free games. Free games? Yeah, the free games and free PlayStation Plus membership you get as part of the "Welcome Back" program. You've only got until July 3, so get it out of the way now. Casually stroll past the break for all this week's DLC.

PSA: Bulletstorm 'Gun Sonata' DLC out today for PS3, 360
It's been said that one can never tire of gunshots to the groin (well, someone, somewhere has to have said that at some point) but humans, being a particularly fickle lot, are always looking for a change of scenery. Bulletstorm's new Gun Sonata DLC, out today for the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of Epic's balls-to-the-wall (literally!) FPS, should help satisfy that primal need. The pack, well, packs two new Echoes mode maps (Guns of Stygia and Crash Site) along with three more locales for Anarchy mode (Hotel Elysium, Sewers and Villa) for the sum of 800 Microsoft Points / $10 on Xbox Live and PSN, respectively. The content is up on XBL now and will hit PSN with its weekly update this evening. As for the PC version, EA tells us it's still planned, just without a firm release date at this point.

PSN Tuesday: Red Faction: Battlegrounds, StarDrone, Angry Birds sale
This week's PSN update adds two very different type of arcade titles: Red Faction: Battlegrounds is the vehicular combat game that somehow ties into the Red Faction universe. Don't think about it too hard, just drive around for $10 and blow stuff up. Meanwhile the Move-supported StarDrone is a hybrid pinball / brick-breaking game. Check out the videos for a better idea. It should also be noted that the excellent Lara Croft: Guardian Of Light is 50 percent off for $7.49. Also, the phenomenon that is Angry Birds has come in step on PSN with its iOS cousins, as the game is available now for $1.99 instead of $3.99 Greedy green pigs can head on past the break and steal a glance at all of this week's DLC.

PSN Tuesday: Moon Diver, Free Realms
Sony Online Entertainment's Free Realms MMO finally arrives on PS3 today. We really don't have much to say about the free-to-play hit, but it gives us a fantastic excuse to post a picture of purple horse with wings. Another big arrival today is Moon Diver, which at one point was called Necromachina, but before that was known as ... Moon Diver. Anyway, original point: it's like a four-player Strider. Considering it was designed by Kouichi Yotsui, one of the leads on Strider, that makes the lift kosher in our book. There's a lot more to be found in the full update details after the break.

PSN Tuesday: Swarm, Hoard and Castlevania: LoS Reverie DLC
PSN delivers another week of interesting downloadable titles with PS3's Swarm and PSP's Hoard. If you haven't checked out the demo from last week's PSN exclusive Slam Bolt Scrappers, that's definitely worth taking for a test drive. For something with a bit more machismo, the demo for WWE All Stars is available, along with Castlevania: Lords of Shadow's "Reverie" DLC. Konami kinda just snuck that release in this week for the States, but it should be available in Europe on March 30. There's plenty more to peruse in the full update after the break.

NGP games will be downloadable day-and-date with retail releases
SCEA hasn't managed to deliver all PSP UMD releases digitally -- let alone simultaneously with retail -- and even said the likelihood of making such parity would be several years off. That doesn't appear to be the case with PSP's sucessor, the NGP, based on comments made by SCEE president Andrew House. "One thing we learnt from PSP, is that we want to have simultaneous delivery in digital and physical for NGP," House told MCV. "Just to clarify that, all games that appear physically will be made available digitally." While that's certainly positive news, we're still waiting on word about Sony filling in the gaps on downloadable PSP back-catalog games -- which will run on the NGP, some with patched-in support for the handheld's second analog stick. Then there's the matter of the system's proprietary flash storage media, needed to store downloaded games, being a bit fuzzy. In short: Sony still has a lot to explain about its powerful new portable.
PSN Tuesday: Slam Bolt Scrappers, Mortal Kombat demo
PSN exclusive Slam Bolt Scrappers is the highlight of this week's PSN update. The multi-genre mash-up from Fire Hose Games delivers multiplayer mayhem in a colorful package. There is also a demo available, so definitely take the game out for a test drive. Speaking of test drives, Mortal Kombat's demo is now available to PSN plebs. Characters included in the demo are Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Mileena and Johnny Cage. There's plenty more to peruse in the full update after the break.
