Many of you saw the announcement last Friday of Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception, XCOM: Enemy Unknown, and LittleBigPlanet: Karting. In addition to those, I’m here to drop some new content and sales for this week’s PlayStation Plus update, which include Machinarium coming free for PS Plus members, and an E3 2013 sale on some of the biggest games available digitally. It’s a big week, with a ton of content, so read on to learn more!
June 11th PlayStation Plus Update
UNCHARTED 3: Drake’s Deception (PS3) Single Player and Free to Play Multiplayer Bundle
The highly acclaimed single player campaign of Uncharted 3, along with the Free to Play Multiplayer Mode will be available for all PS Plus members to experience, free with their membership! A search for the fabled “Atlantis of the Sands” propels fortune hunter Nathan Drake into a desperate bid for survival that strains the limits of his endurance, forcing him to confront his deepest fears.
XCOM: Enemy Unknown (PS3)
From the award-winning creators of Civilization comes an action-strategy game about humanity’s last stand. Threatened by an unknown enemy, Earth’s governments unite to form an elite paramilitary organization, known as XCOM. As the commander of XCOM, you must create a fully operational base, research alien technologies, plan combat missions, and lead your soldiers in fierce battles against a terrifying alien invasion. The decisions you make will affect the fate of humanity. You are our last hope.
LittleBigPlanet Karting (PS3)
Sackboy returns in a completely new Karting adventure to save the Craftworld universe! Get behind the wheel to race through fun-filled tracks, battle in hectic arenas, and collect items in open-world environments. Compete in exciting mini-games and modes unlike anything you’ve seen, and enjoy endless levels created by the LittleBigPlanet community. From game modes to weapon types, never before has Sackboy had so many customization options. If you can dream it, you can drive it!
Machinarium (PS3)
An astoundingly unique adventure with the best of adventure game sensibilities, Machinarum is one game that you might have always heard of, but never had a chance to play. Gamers who loved the puzzle mechanics of games like The Walking Dead will find much to love with Machniarium. With a unique art style and several awards including ‘Best Indie Game of the Year’ by Gamasutra.com, you owe it to yourself to check out this unique title on PS3.

Solid update. Thanks! I just wish Machinarium would have also been free for Vita. Here’s my IGC wishlist:
God of War (all games in the series; digital versions of GOW3 & Ascension)
Grand Theft Auto (all games in the series)
Guacamelee
Hitman Absolution
Machinarium (Vita)
Max Payne 3
Metal Gear Rising
Metal Gear Solid HD (PS3), digital version of MGS4
Red Dead Redemption
Red Faction Guerrilla & Armageddon
Uncharted 1 & 2
Also, could you add Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops to the Vita store? It’s available in all regions except North America, and it’s also the only MGS game I haven’t played!
5 BUCKS for TWD? O-M-G
Wow, nice sales!
Morgan, question.
If I already have a Music Unlimited subscription, can I stack the PSN + one you mention above onto this or no ?
thanks,
“30% Discount for PS Plus members (PSN Price: $59.99; PS Plus Price: $41.99)”
EERHH?? I was expecting more sales for Vita. =( Only hope that Sony dont forgive teh Vita at the conference
Ctrl+F, “Vita”.
Sigh.
Sony <3
PS+ such an awesome service supporting you and your products is my way to say thank you
Hello Morgan. Well, i don´t want to enlarge the complainers’ mass. PS+ is an awesome service that is too cheap and it´s is very good. But last friday, you announced three new games for PS3’s IGC, but none for Vita. We know that Vita game library isn´t THAT big yet, but the Vita owners are feeling a little forgotten. It´s a little unfair.
Despite this, i don´t know about “Virtue´s Last Reward” but “Gods Eater Burst” is a nice choice for Vita´s IGC, because the Vita´s dual analogic sticks make the game even better than in PSP.
Thanks.
I’ve heard nothing but good things about Virture’s Last Reward, and the community seems to be pretty excited about GEB. I’m thinking you’ll find those to be two solid games! But your feedback is definitely noted.
