‘Heads-Up’ PlayStation Store Update (28th January 2010)

Another week, another batch of fresh content delivered straight to your door…well, by way of a PS3, PSP or Media Go, an internet connection and logging into the PlayStation Store to download the content, but you get my drift, right? :D
Enough of the lame attempts at humour, let’s get straight to business; you want stuff, and we have it (once the store is updated later today). Two of my personal gaming highlights of last year get additional content; for Assassin’s Creed II you can rejoin Ezio, piecing together more memories in Sequence 12: Battle of Forli, with six new challenges, and another chance to pilot Leonardo’s flying machine.
Then for Uncharted 2 you can get some multiplayer love with the addition of some new skins. Not just any old skins too, these are skins taken from some of our most recent PlayStation releases!
Talking of Uncharted 2, for those of you who have not tried the game yet, then the demo is here to set that right. Taking in some of the action from Nepal, you’ll experience this amazing game for yourself (I’m not just saying that because I feel obliged too either…it truly is a wonderful game).
You’ve also got one final week to grab the special offers below, and then they’re gone, with a new batch to follow…ooooh, exciting I know.
No blatant attempts to make you all love me this week by giving away codes, so I’ll probably skip the comments this week…I’m joking of course, I’ll be around as usual.
Take it easy all!
