One of the best games on the PSN just got one of the best price drops ever.

There will be a demo for Heavy Rain and it should be releasing in February for Europeans.

Welcome back to another Homerun. It’s another week with more content for PlayStation Home to talk about.

We’ll start with North America this week…

It seems like January is just a weak month for the PlayStation Store. This update is pretty much just for the ModNation Racers beta and it’s limited to the first 100,000 downloaders. GO!

Yakuza 4 is set to arrive in Japan on the 18th of March, but Europeans and North Americans are still waiting for Yakuza 3 to come out.

Well today comes the news that the game is set to arrive on the 12th of March in Europe – yes just six says before the fourth game.

Excella Gionne, the corrupt CEO of Tricell, will be joining the cast as a playable character in the upcoming Mercenaries Reunion mode for Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition.

She has attitude. She has some martial arts skills. But does she truly have what it takes to survive this Majini infestation?

Final Fantasy VIII has finally been dated for a European release.

Despite last week’s reassurances that the game would make a release in January, it will narrowly miss this month and will instead release on the 4th of February.

Last week we heard about BRAVIA Internet Video Link coming to the PS3 this year. Today we hear about another video streaming service in the form of Slingbox.

It has been announced that a Slingbox application is coming to the PlayStation 3 sometime in the future.

Did you miss out on the awesome Battlefield: Bad Company 2 closed beta? Never fear – a demo is coming.

The news comes to us from UK retail gaming store GAME, revealing that a taster of DICE’s FPS action will be available on February 4th.

The PS3 version of Thexder Neo is no simple port of the PSP game. Square Enix has revealed that Thexder Neo will include online multiplayer and boss battles.

The official Super SFIV blog has updated and this time the developers discuss the sound effects of the game.

Square Enix has announced that Front Mission Evolved will be releasing worldwide in Spring 2010.

Hey guys and girls. We thought that we would give you a friendly reminder that the ModNation Racers European Beta will be available to download on Thursday 21st January.

As we said before, Sony are only allowing the first 100,000 people who sign-in to the store to have the chance to download it, so make sure you’re ready.

Fat Princess is kicking off the new year with something great and no, it isn’t some lame resolution that has already been dropped. Hitting PS3s everywhere tomorrow is Patch 1.04.

Not only does this fix a few issues but it brings us one new free city-themed map; Brownie Town.

Developer Certain Affinity look to be returning to the pirate seas with Legend of Booty, a likely sequel to 2008′s corsair themed Age of Booty.

Spotting the title getting the revealing trademark treatment (to defend itself from scurrilous pirates and other would-be pilferers no doubt), Eurogamer quite accurately state that the follow-up will most likely navigate through precarious waters and land on the PSN.

There is probably no better deal for fans of big games like Heavy Rain who have yet to purchase a PS3 but want to than to buy the game already bundled with the system.

Good job then that Sony has taken notice, at least for France so far anyway…

Sony Computer Entertainment have announced today that their motion controller, which still has yet to have a name, will be released this fall in all major territories.

There are already some big titles that will support the new controller, Resident Evil 5 and LittleBigPlanet to name a few, and Sony plans on bringing new attractive and innovative games for the motion controller.

Not to be confused with previous sightings of Persona 5 being in development, Amazon Japan are listing a new (and first) Shin Megami Tensei game for the PS3.

Sad news today, with reports reaching us from Japan that renown voice-actor Gōri Daisuke was found dead yesterday of suspected suicide.
