Moving along to the PlayStation Network, I’m reminded of the classic Smiths song, “Stop Me If You Heard This One Before” because it’s mostly just a rehash of what I said for the Xbox 360. There are two PSP games however; Flow, the PS3 favorite is now being released as a PSP game (sorry, if you bought the PS3 version you still have to buy the PSP version separately) and Ape Escape is now available as a download for $15 (previously only available as a UMD).

Interestingly enough, the MLB 2K8 demo did not make it into the PS Store for this week. Not sure what the issue is there, but it’s a bummer for PS3 fans (although you should probably just buy The Show anyway, but hey we’re all about options here).

So that wraps up another week of downloads…hopefully we’ll see a more robust offering next week. Fingers are still crossed for EarthBound on the Virtual Console!!
