About time, don't you think?
Sony has today announced PlayStation Network Play, a new promotion which will see four titles released in the PlayStation Network Store over a four week period, in a move which is set to rival Microsoft’s Summer of Arcade.
PSN Play will feature four action games released every Wednesday during the four weeks, with Street Fighter III Third Strike Online Edition being the first title to be released on August 26th. Following up a week later will be The Baconing, and then Bloodrayne: Betrayal the week after, with Renegade Ops finishing off the promotion on September 14th. Each title will include extra DLC as an incentive, of which the full details are below.
As a bonus, Sony will be giving away Payday: The Heist to anybody who buys all four before September 20, while PlayStation Plus members will get a 20% discount on all titles before the same date.
The whole lineup will be available for pre-order in North America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand starting August 10, and those that do pre-order will get a free theme for their PlayStation 3 for a limited time only.
