We’re excited to announce a new program called “Only On PSN,” which features brand new games that are exclusively available on PlayStation Network throughout October. Every week starting tomorrow, October 4, you will find new titles, unique to PSN that are part of this program – games that you’ve likely read about here on the PlayStation Blog, or seen during our showing at E3 2011. You may recall our announcement a few months ago about investing $20 million in exclusive PSN titles, and the Only On PlayStation Network program showcases two titles spawning from this investment: Eufloria and Okabu.
We can’t wait for you to get your hands on the Only On PSN games yourselves, so we’re giving you a few special offers throughout the course of the program.

The PS3 brings a ridiculously awesome week of gaming on Blu-ray when Dark Souls delivers another hellish and notorious challenging adventure. From the engineering benches of Doom and Quake, creators id Software brings another technological phenomenon to the PS3 with Rage. On the digital front, Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition, Crysis, and Eufloria come to PSN.
Travel through time when Chrono Trigger comes to PSone Classics (I double pinky promise) and here’s your friendly reminder to grab your Subway footlong and UNCHARTED 3 Multiplayer code and gain full access to the U3 Multiplayer experience a month early. Enjoy this week’s The Drop.

The calendar now reads October, though I realized it not from the changing of the weather (it’s still warm here in the Bay Area), but because of the density of new game releases. I’m still exploring the HD remake of ICO, and Dark Souls is already looming in the shadows of a Tuesday release. From the looks of the reviews (some links below), it’s every bit as good as Demon’s Souls, and even more difficult – however that’s possible.
The rest of the new release list will follow later on today, but it also includes Rage, a game I’ve thoroughly enjoyed at events. I’m curious to see what everyone else thinks of it as well.
It’s also a great time for PSN-exclusive games. The links below include stories about Amy, Journey, Sideway: New York, Rochard, Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken, and Elemental Monster Online Card Game.

Too many games! This weekend will be a busy one on the PSN multiplayer front, with the Battlefield 3 Open Beta in full swing and the launch of the UNCHARTED 3 Complete Competitive Multiplayer Experience last night via download codes at your local Subway restaurant. Are you playing either of these — or both? Give us your full report in the comments.
In other news this week: Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell Trilogy and the ICO & Shadow of the Colossus Collection hit PS3; Journey was confirmed for a Spring 2012 release timeframe; our own Jeff Rubenstein went hands-on with PSN-exclusive new release Rochard, plus upcoming PSN exclusives Retro/Grade and Sideway: NY; a new Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One video revealed the Octomoth boss battle; and a hilariously violent trailer confirmed the upcoming PSN release of Zombie Driver HD.
