PSN Thursday: The Punisher will shock you to your Qore
The American PSN update today isn't quite as interesting as the European one, but it's still got an okay amount of content. Punisher: No Mercy has been released, alongside the latest episode of Qore and the normal amount of DLC. PSP fans can choose from a selection of new games, including Capcom Classics Collection Remixed. There are also some more PS3 and PSP themes and some Rock Band Unplugged DLC.

European PSN releases for July 2
Okay Sony, we forgive you for the last couple of weeks. Today's PSN update is chock full of content, with particular emphasis on downloadable games. Punisher and Topatoi are joined by James Pond 2 and Numblast, plus a demo for Red Baron. There's also the usual amount of DLC for those rhythm games you kids love so much, along with a new MotorStorm Pacific Rift expansion.
PSP owners can grab Monster Hunter Freedom Unite, a PSP version of Numblast and some other games, but if none take your fancy at least there's some new Rock Band Unplugged DLC.

European PSN releases for June 25
There's not a whole lot of new content this week, but better than last, at least. Another PopCap game makes its way across the Atlantic today, in the form of Zuma. There's also the delayed Summer Solstice LittleBigPlanet DLC alongside the Jon Burgerman sticker pack, and PSP fans can grab Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and some Rock Band Unplugged DLC. Finally, to celebrate the two-year anniversary of the release of Super Stardust HD, the price for the game has been dropped to just £1.59. Go get!
Oh, also -- Final Fantasy VII has been fixed and re-released in France. Just thought you might like to know.

PSN Thursday: MGS1 infiltrates the PSOne Classics' ranks
Similarly to the European PSN Store update, this week's content is a little lean.
But what's this? Solid Snake infiltrates the store in his original PS1 adventure, Metal Gear Solid. Yours for the premium PS1 price of $9.99. Sure you can probably find a cheaper copy in a bargain bin somewhere, but really you're paying for the ability to play this classic on your PSP. Anywhere. Other than that, there's a new episode of Qore and an NCAA Football 10 demo. PSP owners can grab GRAW 2 and some themes, too.

PSN Thursday: There's a DLC party and you're invited
So VidZone doesn't work in the US -- we checked -- but American PSN users will be able to feast on some content that Europeans didn't get hold on, as payback. In particular, PopCap's Heavy Weapon, the release of Bomberman ULTRA and another new PS1 game, Medal of Honor Underground. Of course, there's also the same amount of crazy DLC for Killzone 2, Burnout Paradise, LittleBigPlanet and World At War. PSP fans can also pick up a digital copy of Hot Shots Open Tee 2.

PSN Friday: E3 lag edition
What's that you say? It's Friday? Yeah, we've been a bit busy with E3, hence the release of the PSN update post a day late. Plus, it took us forever and a day to type up the ridiculous amount of content that's been dropped, including over twenty videos, three PS1 games, two full PSN games and two demos. Not to mention the usual DLC. Enjoy!

PSN Thursday: Monsters invade the PS3 and PSP
There's plenty of content for you to grab from the US store today, including four demos, two PS1 games and the usual lot of DLC. inFamous and the LittleBigPlanet Monsters pack should probably be at the top of your shopping list this week. If you're a PSP fan, you can take advantage of the just-released Monster Hunter Freedom Unite demo, too.

European PSN releases for May 21
It's true, we liked inFamous quite a lot, but you don't have to take our word for it -- you can go ahead and grab the demo off the European PlayStation store right now. If that doesn't tickle your fancy, there are four other demos for you to try out instead. No wonder this update took so long to arrive! There's also a PS1 game in the form of Creatures 3, a full PSP game and, as usual, a boat-load of DLC including the fairly large LittleBigPlanet Monsters pack.

PSN Thursday: Zen and the art of cheating at Poker
Pretty decent update this week. Not only is Bionic Commando Rearmed half price, but Rag Doll Kung Fu is now completely free. There are also some new games in the form of Texas Cheat Em, Zen Pinball and two PS1 titles. Of course, there's also a bunch of DLC and a smattering of trailers and themes. PSP fans can grab the excellent Pursuit Force: Extreme Justice for a slightly inflated price of $23. But at least it's digital.

European PSN releases for May 14
A few new games make their way to the European PSN Store today amid the normal torrent of DLC releases. PopCap finally graces Europe with Bejeweled 2 and Zen Pinball makes its global debut, day and date with the American release. Other than that, there's DLC for PAIN, Street Fighter IV, Sonic Unleashed and ... sadly, not LittleBigPlanet. Guess those Media Molecule folks have to take a break sometime. The store is also lacking any new PSP content for this week. Sorry, handheld fans.
[Update] PopCap has confirmed that Bejeweled 2 is only the beginning for the European PSN. Zuma, Heavy Weapon, Peggle and Feeding Frenzy will all be heading to Europe in the coming months.

PSN Thursday: 'Finally, some PS1 games' edition
Puzzle Quest: Galactrix makes its PSN debut this week in the US, no doubt intending to feed off the free publicity from the new Star Trek movie. Other than that, there's a lot of new DLC for many different titles, as well as three new PS1 games and even a few full PSP games. What is this, Europe?
