Frustrated by your PS3′s inability to display PS Vita trophies? The good news is this will be coming to an end as of next week.

This week’s selection of fresh downloadable content centers around a cornucopia of some of the most successful franchises to ever hit a PlayStation.

The Dark Knight strikes the store twice this week with a digital release of Batman: Arkham City and the day-and-date release of Lego Batman 2: DC Super Heroes for Vita.

If you have yet to take a spin through Arkham City take this as a opportunity to correct your mistake (shame on you).

Other highlights include a tempting trio of top-flight games receiving significant discounts and a demo for Magic: The Gathering.

Jack Buser was in excellent form in an interview with venturebeat.com, celebrating all things Sony and digital.

Sony announced before E3 that they would unveil the “future of PS Plus”, and that is exactly what they did during their keynote speech. It wasn’t quite as revolutionary as some of the rumours had predicted. There was no cloud streaming service announced, for example.

What we did get however, while not as headline catching, was fantastic news for all PS3 owners. As of today in the US and tomorrow in the UK, an Instant Game Collection will be available for all PS Plus members. This is an ever-expanding library of free games – worth over $260 (in the US at least).
