			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://us.playstation.com/psn/">PlayStation Network</a> is feeling the fever…Spring Fever!  That’s right, just like in past years, PlayStation Network will celebrate exceptional games during <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2010/03/24/spring-fever-returns-on-playstation-network/">Spring Fever</a> &#8212; one of our biggest annual events.  Starting next Tuesday, March 8, you’ll be able to find hot PS3 and PSP games at deep discounts and new featured PS3 releases, all downloadable on the <a href="http://us.playstation.com/psn/playstation-store/index.htm">PlayStation Store</a>. </p>

<p>This year, however, we’ve added a new twist.  As you know, we just concluded voting for our first-ever PlayStation Network <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2011/02/15/playstation-network-gamers-choice-awards-puts-you-in-the-drivers-seat-vote-for-your-favorite-psn-games-today/">Gamers’ Choice Awards</a>, which gave you the chance to vote for your favorite game in four different categories.  We’re still in the midst of tallying the final scores, but we’ll be back here on March 7 to announce the winners and kick-off the first week of Spring Fever featuring the winning games on sale at a 30% discount in the PlayStation Store and available for a 50% discount to <a href="http://us.playstation.com/psn/playstation-plus/">PlayStation Plus</a> subscribers.</p>
<p>And remember, it doesn’t stop there.  Following the one-week sale of our Gamers’ Choice Award winners, we will bring you one new major PS3 release along with a pair of great discounted games each week.  Come back here next week to get the full run-down of Spring Fever and find out which games in each category were crowned PlayStation Network Gamers’ Choice Award winners.</p>
