    Grace, thanks for the free LILO & Stitch. It’s cute & fun. Most of all, thanks for the ten buck Assassins Creed. I’ve been stabbing my way through the Middle East. I make my co workers listen to my stories about.killing every guard I see. Awesome.

    Oh, what sweet glorious news I set my eyes upon when the RSS ticker scrolled across the screen below mine status bar! I loved how the Uncharted 2 Beta was run. Next week is going to be awesome. Can’t wait.

    I was hoping a discount for Plants vs Zombies =( A few days ago it was on $9,99, but i don’t know why, now it’s on $14,99 =/ Anyway, cool offers!

  • Kirkpad
    June 22, 2011 at 4:25 pm PDT

    Yeah, Assassins Creed 2 for $10 was an absolute steal.

    And it is quite warm today in Canada, so your post is dead on.

    Bomberman Ultra I already have, but the Me Monstar mini looks epic! Check out the website here: http://www.memonstar.com/

    Clock dynamic theme is awesome, as is MediEvil! Thanks!

    What happened to the 20% off Outland offer? And any one year anniversary plans for Plus?

    I just want to say that Babel: The King of the Blocks is a really fun puzzle game and a perfect game to play while listening to podcasts. Grab it while it’s still free!

      Babel WAS pretty cool; PS Minis can be crazy charming, and Babel was no exception. Some of those puzzles got pretty tricky later on!

    Can’t wait to try out Uncharted 3 multiplayer beta. Just hope it doesn’t give too much away. I want to be surprised and overwhelmed when I play the SP and MP…

    Whatever happened to Crash Commando. Plus members were suppose to get this game for free when the hackers attacked the network. I was really looking forward to that game coming to plus for free and now Sony is acting like the month never happened.

  • Mercenary09
    June 22, 2011 at 4:42 pm PDT

    Hey guys I remember in april we were gonna get Crash Commando for free. Are there still plans to give us that game?

  • SpyDudeFX
    June 22, 2011 at 4:43 pm PDT

    No 20% off discount for Beyond Good & Evil? The blog said we would in April. What changed? EU Plus is still honoring the 20% off.

      polish up those UC multiplayer skills, my friend. If you got into UC2 multiplayer, you’re going to LOVE UC3’s multiplayer.

    …And again. Not any clue about Beyond Good and Evil. You guys sure know how to keep the rage in your users.

  • NeoHumpty
    June 22, 2011 at 4:54 pm PDT

    Other than UC3, there isn’t much good coming soon, I guess. Wish + members got some Rock Band discounts on tracks. Or at least some actual PSN free games. I was done playing ps1 games about 12 years ago.

  • Kyosuke450
    June 22, 2011 at 4:59 pm PDT

    I read long ago about the release of Beyond Good and Evil and it said the game would be free for PlayStation Plus subscribers, the game is coming next Tuesday for $9.99 :/:/:/

  • lk12345gt
    June 22, 2011 at 5:00 pm PDT

    Why is there no info on what happened to Crash Commando as the free game during the outage? I thought when the network came back up, you were going to start the store/plus updates from the first missed update. We have had multiple updates now, with NO word from Sony as to why some content has been skipped over.

  • DZORMAGEN
    June 22, 2011 at 5:04 pm PDT

    When is Shooter games going to be discounted??

  • TheUndertaker85
    June 22, 2011 at 5:06 pm PDT

    @19 & 21: Beyond Good and Evil has a blog post up already. The only thing missing out of both the BG&E post and this one is the fact that neither addresses the 20% Plus discount that was earlier announced and did happen for the EU store already. I’m hoping this was just a missed item and hasn’t been stopped for NA. I for one am looking forward to buying BG&E for $7.50, but $10 might be pushing it. Could definitely use that $2.50 on other things discounted through Plus or available on the store.

    Medievil is kewl at least. As sad as it sounds, PS+ benefits seemed better when the whole world wasn’t receiving them… I kinda can’t wait till that 1 month free thing is over for most people… as I hope to see better content offered on the service.

  • Kirkpad
    June 22, 2011 at 5:20 pm PDT

    Jeez, feel like moderating my comment? It was just a link to the free minis game, which by the way looks FANTASTIC. Holy crap, I am super pumped for that Me Monstar game now.

  • Dark_Zankoku
    June 22, 2011 at 5:34 pm PDT

    I just don’t like how when the store was coming back up they said that there would be quite a few updates to fill the store with anything that came out during the outage. streets of rage 2, Golden Axe 2, and crash Commando all should have been part of that but instead Streets of Rage 2 only just came out, awhile longer of a wait for golden Axe 2, and no sign of crash Commando..

  • ExPresident
    June 22, 2011 at 5:37 pm PDT

    This is awesome! I knew the UC3 beta was coming at some point but didn’t think it would be this month! Glorious!!!

    On a side note, someone from Sony send this word up and make it happen please –

    The new XCOM game is being advertised and what not and everyone saw it at E3 but it would be FRICKEN AWESOME if you would release the original, X-COM UFO Defense, as a PS1 Classic on the PS Store so we could play it on our PS3’s and PSP on the go, I mean, that too would be EPIC. Capitalize on some sales here Sony PLEASE!

    Thanks! :)

    Cant wait until the full game comes out, Uncharted 3 is going to epic. It sucks I have to wait for 5 more months to get the game but Uncharted 3 is worth the wait.The Unchared franchise is the best I ever played in my life, great graphics, awsome storyline that keeps you going back for more, and great machinics. Tomb Raider cant stand the chance with Uncharted.

  • ICourtesyFlush
    June 22, 2011 at 5:42 pm PDT

    I can’t wait for Uncharted beta either. This means I must quickly finish Assasin’s Creed 2 which I got for just 10 buck…amazing game, can’t believe I didn’t play that before.

    So does this mean that Fancy Pants Adventures will be put on sale again? I missed my opportunity last week to get it at the sweet price of $5, so please tell me that it will be put on sale again as this posting seems to imply.

    Why are we getting so screwed on the plus offers? We were supposed to get two store updates a week and that only lasted for a week. Now we aren’t even getting the items we were told we were getting in the right order. I have been a plus member since day one and I have loved it till now. I already have Streets of Rage 2 from the store update this past week so that better be a typo and not us being screwed over again.
