The PlayStation Blog recap

Okay, we took our foot of the gas just a little following the avalanche of news coming out of Gamescom, but I hope you’ll agree there was plenty to get your teeth into on PlayStation Blog this week. We had closer looks at Killzone: Shadow Fall, Knack and Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 Remix; behind the scenes videos for Beyond: Two Souls and Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII; a juicy Assassin’s Creed sale; a bumper Store update (Spelunky!); and a pair of very sexy announcements from the indie community – Road Not Taken and Cosmic Star Heroine.
