Velocity 2X, Joe Danger and TxK hit PS+ in September

If you were wondering about why FuturLab was being coy about the price of Velocity 2X, now we know why. The game will be free on PS+ in September allowing us to enjoy the finest refinements in shooting for many years for nowt.

This week's PSN update

For those who want to pay cold hard cash, this week's PSN update adds Hyperdimension Neptunia Rebirth1 to the store for a hefty £32.99. RPGers might fancy a go at the PSP title End of Serenity which is just £11.99. Disgaea 4 is available on retail from Friday, which should be the best of the bunch.
