This edition includes a peek at the Mafia II add-on “The Betrayal of Jimmy” as well as a MotorStorm 3D Rift preview. We answer the ultimate question about when PlayStation Network will get the hit game Castle Crashers (hint: now!). Qore host Veronica Belmont previews Episode 28 featuring a post-apocalyptic Las Vegas theme. We also reveal the top ten downloads from the PlayStation Store (can you guess what took number one last month?) and discuss a few features about the PlayStation Protection Plan. From the Video Store, we have features on Killers, MacGruber, and more and give you a little preview of the Fall TV Sale.

So, watch below now or download later today to your PS3 to get Christina Lee in her full HD awesomeness.

See you in a couple weeks for the 9/21 edition of Pulse — only from PlayStation Network.

For those of you who don’t have a 3D TV yet and want to sample MotorStorm Pacific Rift, I can assure you that 3D Rift is still wicked fun on a 2D TV! Check out this video of the adrenaline-soaked MotorStorm Pacific Rift in action.

In 3D Rift you’ll have 10 unique events to compete in (one for each track) with the full range of competitor difficulty levels through the races, so you can enjoy the brutal off-road racing at your leisure or take on the toughest and most competitive rivals.

With 3D you can naturally judge your speed and proximity, which will be extremely helpful when trying to avoid being side-swiped by a rampaging Racing Truck, ramming a rival Buggy into a cave wall, or timing when to get back on the accelerator as you take a tricky corner. When you are riding a Bike, 3D makes it obvious what you can and can’t duck under — even at high speeds! And you can feel just how monstrous a Monster Truck is when looking down at a rival Buggy just before it disappears under your super-sized wheels. If you’ve played the 3D Collection demo then you’ve already gotten a taste of how awesome MotorStorm is in 3D. Check out MotorStorm 3D Rift for more tracks and greater challenges. If you haven’t, you’ll be blown away by the sense of speed as you fight through the tropical island setting and RIP it up in 3D paradise.

MotorStorm 3D Rift includes 10 tracks, 10 race events, multiple playable vehicles, and is playable in both 2D and 3D. You can get it on PSN for $9.99.

We hope you’ll enjoy it as much as the team here has enjoyed working on it. We look forward to bringing you more breathtaking 3D racing action with MotorStorm Apocalypse next year!
