With this week’s PlayStation Store update Sony seems to have gone out of their way to provide gamers with far more content than anyone who has a job and doesn’t suffer from insomnia can handle.  Including several highly anticipated titles, this weeks PSN store update may just (but hopefully won’t) prove to be the biggest week that the service will enjoy.  Now, let’s make with the mind-boggling, thumb-destroying list.

• WipEout HD:  After what seems like a metric eternity,  SCE Studio Liverpool has unleashed their much awaited futuristic racing title for the appealing price point of $19.99.
• Burnout Paradise:  Not to be contented with one robust racing title on PSN this week, developer Criterion has turned their disc-based title into a fully featured PSN title that carries a $29.99 price tag.
• Megaman 9:  Capcom brings back Inafune’s titular little blue manservant for another round of stealing skills from the various and sundry bosses that have co-opted the Brady Bunch’s opening title.  Get down with Rockman for the moderate price of $9.99.  (Or just play the demo repeatedly and imagine the enemies being different for free.  And your parents said that your imagination would get you nowhere…)
• GEON Emotions:  “Bliss, rage, envy or fear … use the power of your 8 emotions to” purchase and play the title that XBL has had for the last year and a month.  You can get in on some GEON for $9.99.
• Various Rock Band songs:  Rock out like Geddy Lee and Neil Peart with Rush’s Moving Pictures.  There are a few other songs too, maybe you’re into them.  If you’re at all interested in this sort of thing you likely already know the pricing.

       There are also a few demos this week including NBA Live 09 and, on the complete opposite side of the spectrum, NBA 09.  As one could likely guess there are some videos that have been posted as well; Resistance 2 and Tomb Raider Underworld top the list.  Backgrounds and such also make an appearance along with a few PSP games that made the cut this week: Untold Legends and Puzzle Quest.  In a shocker to literally no one, there are still no PS1 classics worth writing home about.

       So that’s this week’s PSN Store update.  Please be delighted, and if you don’t mind give us a yell about what you’re picking up.  You’ll likely catch me on WipEout HD.
